Hmmm, was yummy, as was this visit we - as everyone - took a break from:
In the days before Corinna hit...
We were testers.
Now, hmm.
What kind of a tester will I be? IT or beer? ;-)
Jürgens Braunerei see history-wise or today opened up a couple of years ago again, a young start-up team, they are fun, enthousiastic, try new stuff.
Only on Thursdays you could go.
Well, not anymore, thank you, Corinna.
Way over 50 years ago FIL had their original beer right here, in Braunschweig, where he became a police officer (and he can tell different stories as to which you can hear these days).
Taking part in Elizabeth and Bleubeard´s "T Stands For Tuesday".
Art-wise... THINK!
Another 60-90-seconds sketch (This is what it´s all about):
Henry? He´s fed up with Corinna, he and his family, too!
Let´s see if we keep on hiding or...?
... against Corinna, that is!
Or dumb people like the lady behind me at the cash-out. Mask: yes. Covering her mouth only, sneezing me at the back with her free nose. Lucky me had the distance, but really?!
Cash-out-woman told her off, but, well, too late...

That looks like a great glass of Beer Ingo! Oh dear Iris that Curry and the rice looks super perfect! I am very sure it tastes so good, great job! I am not a beer or wine drinker but ever since I tried a dark colored beer in Prague, I really fell in love with the taste. Yesterday I saw a small bottle of wine left by my brother before he went back to US so I opened it and shared it with my Dad. It was super super super good! It was a Chardonnay from South Australia as the bottle said, it was very refreshing and sweet :)
Sending you hugs dearest Iris! After 4 days of rest I'll be back to work this evening. I am far from excited but still very thankful for work. Wish you all the best!
Henry's not the only one fed up with Corrina! Hope you enjoyed your home-made curry. Happy T day, Valerie
Stevenson, I´m not much of a fan of dark beer. Once I had an Irish one and I got so tired, I had to go home, LOL! But glad you enjoyed your wine with your Dad, that is very sweet! Yep, the curry was good and I love to know what´s in there, too! So easy to make.
Oh, dear Stevenson, see it the positive way: You have work, and I hope it´s something you actually enjoy, too! Hugs from sadly again colder, grey Germany...

Valerie, yes, I feel sorry for all whose name really is Corinna, bet they feel bad as likely many call that virus that now! Happy T-day anyways!
I've seen many people wearing a mask but only covering the mouth, how silly is that! Don't they realise they could breathe in the virus still?
People are dumb. There is no other explanation...
Your curry looks delicious. I can't drink the dark beer, my DH once entered me for a Guiness drinking competition as a joke, I took one sip and yuck, they gave me a free glass and let me escape!
I think people are forgetting about why we were in lockdown, even here in Spain after it was so strict many people walk too close, the supermarkets are super strict so I do feel safe in them but next week they are allowing more Spanish to travel out of their region so I fear the worst!
Happy T Day

I once had a Guiness - I got so tired I had to go home!
Yes, people too often don´t think, as always! But I do hope a bit they keep distancing, at least at cash-outs!
Let´s see what the future brings, happy T-day Iris x
For some people, the lockdown seems to be ending, and I hope they are all more careful than the people you write about. That's the trouble: you have to depend on others having both intelligence and a good will. We will keep to ourselves and with others we trust --- at least for a little longer.
be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
That woman thankfully was extreme. Most people wear their masks properly... We have to be responsible for ourselves and I always take a trolley now, so I can step in front in case the person behind me comes too close.
...Ingo sure doesn't look stout!!!
:-) Wait till he has it every day ;-)
Your 60-90 second sketches always are amazing Iris. I think drawing is your cup of tea. OK, sorry for the tea refer for T day. I love to go to beer tastings. It's been tough lately. There is a new brewery on my street (and I live on a dirt road in the woods) that I really want to try out, but they are only open for a couple of hours on Saturday, and with only outdoor seating, so maybe one Saturday will be sunny and I can try it. That stout looks good. Hope its a happy T day. Hugs-Erika
The sketches I did a loooong time ago, no idea if I could still do it! But back then it was fun! And I had tea today, too :-)
Hmmm, new brewery sounds tempting! Fingers crossed for warm, sunny days and a happy T-day, hugs - Iris
Love stout!
Yummi,love curry.
Beautiful drawing Iris and that Kleenex pack is quite unusual and colourful.
I'm not a beer (or wine) drinker, but I LOVE stout. It's the only beer I'll drink. The rest tastes watered down and gives me a headache. I'd gladly taste a stout with Ingo.
You may have my curry, even though it looks good. Your sketches are always beautiful. And yes, I see Henry and his siblings hiding. Sorry some lady sneezed on you. That's why I stay home and don't venture out. Things are getting too lax here in the states already.
Thanks for sharing your art, your curry, and your stout testing with us for T this Tuesday, Iris.
your sketches were fantastic and the curry looked delicious.
Some folk are really annoying and don't think of others, I will be home for a while yet even when we are eventually told it would be safe.
Happy T day.
Yvonne xx
magiceye, take mine, it wasn´t my thing...
____
Sami, yes, the curry was yummy and so easy to make!
In Hamburg they still have the musical The Lion King running, hence the Kleenex. Since years and years the musical is on...
____
Elizabeth, feel free to take my stout, too sweet for my liking!
That lady, yes, stupid, just plain stupid and careless.
Thank you again for hosting!
The last time I was at the grocery it was the woman at the check-out who had the mask pulled down beneath her nose. Really?! What's with that?!
I've never made curry, but yours looks tasty. Happy T Tuesday
Yvonne, thank you :-)
And yes, some are so dumb, it hurts! I had to stand in front of the trolley today to keep the next lady at bay.
Otherwise it´s a happy T-day, Iris xx
____
Divers and Sundry dumbness can be topped! A cash out woman should know better, really!
Making curry is really sooo easy,, even I can do it :-)
Happy T-day!
Curry and rice is really good, but a meal I stick to in the colder months. That is some dark beer! And on the rare occasion I will have a beer this is what I would choose- mostly Guinness though;)
We are occasionally seeing a dumb person here and there attempt to shop without a mask. Most times they are approached by a manager or employee though and told a mask is required on or they must leave.
Keep well, and happy T day!
Your sketches are wonderful as always, Iris. I see the hidden lions ;-)
Happy T-Day! Eileen xx
A Guinness and a curry please, Thank you! :)
Linda, I had a Guinness once. And had to go to bed right after ;-)
Yes, same here: No mask - no shopping, trolley mostly required, too!
____
Eileen, thank you and Henry says Hello :-) Happy T-day to you, Iris xx

Bill, just come over :-)
I heard some of the borders across Europe are opening up again. That will surely lead to another round of infections, but what else is to be done? We cannot remain in lockdown forever. Somewhere along the way we will have to reopen our borders here as well - even with them closed, we are getting people arriving who already have the virus (and they were allowed to leave quarantine on 'compassionate' grounds!). The world has gone crazy :(
Yes, borders to Austria, France and Switzerland are open.
We can only hope for sane people!
Haha. It takes all kinds to make the world. I would have turned around and given that lady the stink eye.
:-)
Oh, reckon she was so dumb, she wouldn´t even gotten that!
Oh I love your lion choice today-hugs
The curry looks delicious, I'm so hungry today visiting everyone there is so much food posted this week ..lol 😉. We had homemade curry for dinner today, so yummy! That stout looks good too and I'm loving the lion you found on the colourful tissue packet - perfect! Take care and Happy T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x
Your curry looks delicious. I've been coming up with ways to make my own things that I used to get at restaurants, due to covid-19 closures and rules. I might not go back to the restaurants when they finally re-open to "normal" which is a long way off in time here in Connecticut, US. I understand why masks are required when they finally allow us to go inside the restaurants again (Phase 2 starts tomorrow), but I go to a restaurant to have a nice time: wearing a mask except for when I'm eating is not a nice time. I'll just eat at home, with my own food, where I don't have to wear a mask. Your grocery store line story is horrible! Why aren't people wearing the mask correctly?! Ugh! I agree with Henry: I'm tired of this whole covid-19 thing, and idiots who don't do the right thing. Happy T-Day!
This looks like the perfect T-day beverage to me! YYum!
Fun Henry Kleenex. I’ll have to look to see if we have such fun designs. Too bad about the lady behind you at the store. You just can’t fix stupid. Happy T Day
I see the lions! Fewer and fewer people here are wearing masks...I fear for what’s going to happen next, (we have an idiot at the head of our country and that is not helping).
She sneezed on you? Oh my gosh. Terrible. I'm so sorry.
I'm amazed at the number of people wearing masks improperly...so annoying, and really causes me anxiety when they get too close! On a happier note, your sketch of the model is quite lovely-well done! Hope you get to have some Stout or Beer soon, with some lovely friends and a happy atmosphere!
When I belong to a writting group and we did time writing proments. But never have tried a sketch
I'm sorry I haven't commented earlier. We have been out all day yesterday. And blogger doesn't like the iOS so I have to wait until I'm home and boot up the old desktop PC.
But I have good news: Your card has arrived!! It is beautiful! So colourful! I love it! Thank you so much. Yes, it makes me happy too to look at it. I will feature it in my Friday blog: Friday Smiles, as this card is one big smile!
I am impressed with you curry. It looks very delicious. Well done!
Henry's siblings might be hiding, but I did spot the black lion on the Kleenex packet.
Yumm, stout. I love stout. Perhaps Guiness is slightly too bitter for me, but there are others that are not so bitter. I'm sorry to hear that young beer set-up has already gone under. What a shame.
Sending you hugs,
and a belated happy T-Day,
Lisca
Kathy, thank you :-) Hugs
____
Jo, yes, I also always leave hungry on Tuesdays, LOL - hugs from here x
____
Anne, yes, that is also the point, you wanna have a great time eating out.
Plus, do it yourself is cheaper and you know exactly what´s in there. Hubby for example cannot have anything that was perpared in hot oil - in restaurants you never know if they leave it out for his meal and take a substitute...
____
Jeanie, cheers :-)
____
CJ in Hamburg they still have the musical "the Lion King" and these are practically an ad, more or less.The tissues are white, though.
We do have tissues with fancy design, too, but they´re not soft...
"LOL", true, you cannot fix stupid!
____
Sallie, very well said, I hope that idiot´s days are over soon!!
Most wear their masks only in stores, but sadly too many fail to keep the distance.
____
Dianne, thank you - yes, too many idiots out there, as CJ said, you cannot fix stupid. To better times and a nice beer with friends!
Will have lunch with a friend tomorrow, see him first time in months...
____
Dora the sketches were really fun!
____
Lisca, no worries! Weee, commenting on the phone is a pain for me, PC or laptop it is.
yippie, I thought I messed up your address! So sad the lady at the tourist infoo messed up the Henry-stamp :-(
The curry is the easiest to do, and quick!
Stout/Guiness is too heavy for me and no, they haven´t closed down, they do produce, but are closed for public due to Corinna! Hugs from here and a happy day to you!
Your curry looks delish Iris, a Jamie recipe? Can't believe some people still! Forget to cover mouth when sneezing 😱 Always enjoy seeing your sketches Iris, you should still be sketching now, you have natural talent 💚
Yummy looking curry. The beer looked interesting as well. Loving your artwork.
Happy T day!
I love curry , but not beer..in any form! Such rude and dangerous people around - do are care! Yoursketch is beautiful! Belated Happy T Day, Chrisx
I'm fed up with all of this too.
