"Sweet" FFO And Funnies


With these sweet faces I join Nicole´s FFO and Gillena´s Lunch Break.
These are with ham, cheese and olives and no. I cannot not buy such stuff!
And despite so small (10cm / 4 inches) I managed but one at a time.
 
 
LOL, sent fK a pic and she answered, "oh sweet Kitty!" - Said, "from you I rather expected a  'are you kidding me?!`" - her "am I that direct?!" - yupp and I like that! 
Now some funnies, speaking of waffles... what about pancakes instead?

Alone? Lo...

 

Another look back to our last Perth-visit this year.
This is at The Belgian
Note: She has a paper-book with her! 
 
I remember when still working for CGS, local. We went to the Brodocz for lunch sometimes, on Sodhexo. You pay half the price with that.
There was a lady, all on her own and I felt so sorry! I thought she was alone, lonely... I was thinking of leaving my colleagues and asking if she wanted company, but my colleague, Iris K, said, no, don´t.
 
Fast forward and I found myself in Freo, South of Perth, in a pub, the Gage Roads, ordering a beer, on my own.
Not because Ingo was sick or friends had no time, no, because...
 
I WANTED to be there on my own.
 
People looked at me in pity.
Can you read me? Sometimes you are just so content with your life you want to enjoy it - just by yourself. 
 
Next I went to Grill´d, same... oh, hey, how often did it happen that a male stranger pops up beside me and the staff assumes I "belong" to him. I admit... I´m awfully happy in Perth and about and from time to time stroll off on my own.
 
The lady in first pic was happy!
 
Other, still inviting you to Perth, I found a Jerky-Shop in.the.CBD. !!!!
We got some:
 
 
And!!!! Ingo just took some home.
Yes. To Germany!!!! 
I handle it as a treat-treat!
 
Since BSE you are NOT allowed to bring in Jerky from Australia - total nonsense - it is DRIED  meat. And in Australia this desease never hit...
 
Next Thursday I take you through this...
 

 .. stay tuned, if you like!
 
 
 

 I promise it will be "gigantic"!

T This Tired Week

 

My sad ticket to Elizabeth´s T...
 
The journal:
 

Monday: It seems to be Spring. A very cold Spring. Found this at FB:
 

But what is typical is... the tiredness.
Sooo tired, I slept in. Said to fK I plan to maybe paint the balcony, but did nothing.
 
 
Tuesday: Again, slept in and my stomach started hurting. Tried salad. I think it´s anxiety. I try not to get nervous about the job.
And I searched for recipes in hope I get hungry but that did not work. 
 
 
Wednesday: From bed to PC and back - no sport, nearly no eating. Had an apple. All other food, just thinking of it made me gag. DHL derouted my parcel to pack-station. I.was.home!!!!
At least a reason to go out. 
 

Thursday: Not getting better. At least the sun is shining and it warmed up a little. Got the Kärcher from the cellar...  fK is astonished I´ve heard nothing yet from fE, now two people are worrying. Half an apple. Other... more gagging. Doesn´t matter what I think of.. Pizza, Onion cake, spaghetti. Maybe that, too, causes this darn tiredness. Managed nearly a whole baguette..
 
 
Friday: Had a drink called "this is food". Went at least outside.
People are dumb. We live near the main fire-station. When they have to go out lights for crossing stay red for 15 minutes. Car-drivers have to wait, other you get a fine. 
I´d been crossing twice where there is no red light, just a few steps on (there were no children, checked that). When I reached the White horse lights were finally on green.
Went shopping, come out... looooong row of cars, heaps of people... fire-brigade out again!
Went back inside and came later out with a flower box for the balcony. 
Ingo went to get me a fruit salad.  Because... gagging.
 
 
Weekend: Saturday: Sleep in, egg and darn DHL delayed my parcel to Monday when I have an appointment at the doc. Hope they got it that they put it near the cellar door in case I´m not home. I´m really done with DHL! Twice in one week!
Why I have doubts? They have uneducated staff. Door bell: I go: a postie from another company, asking me where M is. Look.on.the.door.bell and try them, not me! This happens all the time. Fruit salad.
 
Sunday:  An egg, Die Maus and fairy tale, FB-chat with Sami (pics to come).
Done with HAVEN - thank you, River - in the end William Shatner has a role!!! Weeeee....  The circle closes with him! The Troubles, the Tribbles? The gifts? 
 

 
Bread - I ate bread, a wee bit but YES!
 
And started Death in Paradise, thank you River! LOL, back to the British accent!
 

I love the series! It´s hilarious! And too cute.
 
Munchy mostly:

 Oh, to a better week!
