Yum? Yum, Partially! Europe...

Ingo is always on the experimental side.

Thanks to The Simpsons - or rather, well to Moe Szyslak - Ingo started making Pickled eggs. First ones were rather very salty, now he tried the Chili-version, let´s see tomorrow - looks yummy so far!:



Not so yummy was - in my eyes - the stuff from Italy (why, just why always Ingo and Italy?!!!).
Looked freaky in the internet, looked even freakier when we had it home - and, certainly, I did not join in! Eeeeeeek to Zampone (German) - a filled pig-foot (Ingo found this English site... yeah, gotta go into defence here ;-) :



But, will you believe it... there was something yummy indeed after all in the box from Italy! The packing! Is made from corn - corn-flips - they taste really good (and yes, they say it is edible) and they are rather low in calories, yay:



You don´t like corn? No worries, just put it into your compost!

Else... it got darn cold, we call it Sheep-coldness (German). Temps have been getting down by 10 C! One day you have end 20, next only 18C!
It usually starts around June 11th - when the sheep-shearing is already done, which can get dangerous for the poor fellas.

Gack! Search for a pic gave me this!!!



And by a German site, too, http://www.killersheep.de/!

I want summer back! My flowers and plants what summer back!


Busy weekend ahead for us. Sat another footy game - Sun we are to vote...



Just. Whom. Should I vote?! Elections in the European Union are due... and heck, I´m so unsure. Yep, did the tests and all, still... but then. Do I make a difference?

Tell Ingo, that pig's trotter looks hideous! Not overly sure about the eggs either... sorry :(

Hello M+B!
I don´t call it "pig´s trotter" (wouldn´t taste like "Lo zampone di Modena è un salume a Indicazione Geografica Protetta (IGP)"
that means: Imagine, that´s a tasty (mouth-watering)meat-pie :=)
