Yes, that’s how it started this morning, when a photo arrived from Germany:
The best butcher’s shop in Coesfeld can also make snowmen \u2013 chapeau!
(Warm regards to all Strobands! \ud83d\ude0a ) In contrast to that is what I saw at that moment\u2026.

Otherwise, today was a day of preparation. Trying to find out if and when the respective people will come by tomorrow to make a sale\u2026 No one knows for sure, so I’ll stand on the shore and wait\u2026. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workplace looked like this; it could be worse\u2026.

In the afternoon, almost a tradition now, coffee and tea at an outdoor caf\u00e9 with some reading, followed by pho.
(An absolutely fantastic book: The Sting of the Bee by Paul Murray, shortlisted for the 2023 Booker Prize. VERY worthwhile, in my opinion, and the taz newspaper agrees. \ud83d\ude42

Here’s something else worth knowing about food in Vietnam. I would say that there are significantly more products here that are used and can be used in cooking than there are in our country. Take swift nests, for example.
Swifts live in the air for about 10 months of the year, sleeping while flying or flying while sleeping, at an average speed of 23 km\/h. They can fly at a maximum speed of 200 km\/h. In any case, their nests are an expensive delicacy here. Of course, I immediately sensed a business opportunity for myself in Germany, but here the nests are built with different saliva, which is different due to the different food. Here, an extract from the nests is added to the soup.
I’m not sure if I’ve already had it in my soups without realizing it\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
