Hi Michele, this reminds me of the famous photo of Man Ray. Well done, only now a man is lending his back as a cello 😉 https://image.kurier.at/images/cfs_932w/6918777/46-186805116.jpg

Hi, I'm currently working privately on a lot of digital birthday cards and congratulations on the birth in mobile phone format. Many family members and friends have birthdays in the first half of the year😄🌷

Hi James, we last had a total solar eclipse in Germany in August 1999, which we enjoyed with our neighbors on the terrace. The next total SF shouldn't be until 2081, on Lake Constance. However, there will be a partial SoFi in northern Germany in 2025. Wikipedia lists complete and partial SoFi's in the world from 2003 to 2097. I'll have to look for the photos and do a scrap with them. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_zentren_Sonnenfinsternisse_in_Europa_im_21._ Jahrhundert Edit 05.04 24: My SoFi-Scrap is here down👇

S = Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte😋

Yes, we had a cat café, but it was in a rather inconvenient location and could only be reached by high concrete stairs in a built-up passage on the second floor. So not visible to walk-in customers. I was there once alone (found it as an advertisement in the regional newspaper) and once with a friend. They had eight cats, but they only came to us when the owner gave us treats for the cats to get them to come to us. The lack of customers and therefore money due to the lockdown ruined the owner's dream. The property owner now wants to start something new. The cats are now in the animal shelter and some have already been placed privately. Which is a shame. 😹

Hi all, I can't remember my toys before I was 6, but after that - it was post-war - we children mostly played outdoors or with household objects. There was no money in our large family for toys and children's books. The grandparents usually only gave us useful things, like clothes. We played almost exclusively with small toys, marbles, cards and balls, which we bought at fairs for little money. I then did a lot of drawing with my school supplies (my dream career at the time was "fashion illustrator"😁) or cutting out jewelry from catalogs. I loved reading and always devoured my new school books at the beginning of a new school year. It was only in a children's treatment that I learned beautiful fairy tale books I know, see Scrap. Things were getting better for us in the mid-1960s, then Legos, a melodica and knitting toys and the TV came along. I never had dolls, more like living "baby dolls". From the age of 6 I had to work as a co-teacher act... Today my husband and I fondly remember our childhood toys and adventures in nature. I think by playing in nature we have trained our imagination much more and been able to live out our urge to move.

Qu = Quitten-Gelee (quince jelly) I love quince jelly on fresh bread or rolls with sweet cream butter.

G=Gugelhupf

C= Champagner-Sorbet

Good Morning all, we have been against it since the daylight saving time change began. You can see where people are headed when they disregard God's orders (including natural laws) and want to change them for economic reasons. Nothing has changed in our well-being, but the “experts” believe that it has made little or no difference in terms of energy consumption. But if you have several animals, you will notice the change in their biorhythm. But which politicians want to admit they were wrong and change it again? Here in Germany the change is on March 30th/31st. This is where the clocks are changed in Germany: https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/info/atomic_clock.htm
