Funny Thursday

Thursday on my way back home from work - Traffic Jam at the red lights. I have time to look around. There is a sign in front of a restaurant:
„Gutbuergerliche Kueche –
deutsche Kueche
Sonntags ab 09:00 Uhr
Brunch“

Brunch?! That doesn´t sound much like gutbuergerlich (bourgeois ) or german...

Next I went to Wal*Mart to give a crate of bottles back. It was heavy and especially unhandy . It was work to carry that. From the other side a man came to the entrance. He had heaps of crates in his trolley. When he reached me he stopped, looked in my face, smiled and said, „come on, put it in here, too“ :-)
How nice! I thanked him four times, I guess, and smiled all the way home. Another friendly local :-)

I then went to the gym. On the way back, it was dark already, I stopped at the red lights and saw two police-cars with emergency lights on, also at the red lights. I got a little scared – do they search for someone dangerous? Where will they go, is it safe to cross the street. I did and then saw what the police was there for – a demonstration. But all I understood was „... for everyone...!!!“ I couldn´t understand the rest – I really tried!

I locked the bike and went to my car to fetch a bag for my recycling stuff. Crossed the street and stopped cold – a girl/woman on her bike drove on the pavement and it was easier to stop for me than for her.
She gave me a big smile in return and said, „thank you very much!“ :-) I only wish she had her lights on...

Man I was hungry! Put the pan on the stove, grabbed an egg from the fridge and... didn´t manage to open it...

I remember once I wanted to peel a cooked egg. I hit it on my kitchen table – it was raw. (Ingo did all the cooking and I hadn´t understood his way of sorting...) Do you know how the white of egg glues on a plastic blanket?
This time it was the other way round...
