It's raining hard last night and today when i looked at the skies, its still very cloudy. When the rain begin to pour, i suddenly remember my missing umbrella.
Last week when i shopped at Mueller in Offenburg, i placed my black esprit umbrella in the spot where wet umbrellas should be. After 30 minutes of shopping, i returned to the front door to retrieve my umbrella.
I was surprised to see a german girl picked up my umbrella. I did confronted her and told her its mine, then an argument followed. I really insisted that its mine and she tried to find hers. She searched for her umbrella and found it in another bin. It turned out that we have the same black esprit rain protector.
With my umbrella in hand, i decided to stop shopping because of the rain. I then headed to the level parking to retrieve my car. I pay my parking fee then drive home.
I was in our garage when i suddenly remember my umbrella, i forgot it at the ticket machine. Oh my gulash, i was figured in an argument only to lose it because of my alzheimer. Don't be sad cool mom, you still have your red esprit and other umbrellas.

Gathering of Friends
It's almost summer here in Germany and people are enjoying a nice weather. It's also grill and garden time. They are now busy beautifying their gardens with lots of beautiful flowers and inviting friends for a grill party.
The other day, Lalaine invited us again for a get-together at their place. The kids enjoyed the pool while we're busy joking and exchanging pleasantries. The foods was superb, pansit, fried chicken, chicken curry, sinigang and kaldereta. I'm really busy this week attending get together and birthday parties.
Yesterday, i am with my best friends having lunch at our favorite italian restaurant.

Floh Markt
We have a very nice weather today, its sunny but a little bit cold, around 20 degrees. I know that there's a scheduled flea market today so i browsed around the stalls selling different kind of stuff, clothes, decors, antiques and other household junks.
I told myself i will just browsed, but i cannot control myself buying some things for our house.
I think we have a flea market four or five times a year only and its just from 8 to 5, so better take advantage because you will surely find some rare things that's not available in any store.

Asparagus and Strawberries
It is asparagus and strawberry season in Germany. Spargel is the german name for asparagus and most of it are colored white as it is grown covered in soil in order to prevent photosynthesis. This process prevents the asparagus from turning green and results in a sweeter and more tender taste.
It's perfect when its served with slices of ham and hollandaise sauce.
The german strawberry season had also started. Dirk like very much strawberries picked by neighbors and other locals here in our place. These seasonal foods/fruits are selling like hotcakes in the supermarkets and stalls.

Schnitzel and Pommes
Everytime we go to any german restaurant, i always order the same food, fried sliced pork and french fries. Sometimes vegetable salad is included as an appetizer.Take a look at my order below, its really a big portion that you can only eat one slice.
There are some restaurants that allow you to order kids menu and that includes small schnitzel and french fries. With our small built, i think that portion is enough for us, same thing with t-shirts that we can buy in the kids section.

Meet our Engineers
These are the young but promising engineers of Bestman Builders who are responsible in building our retirement house at southforbes golf city. The two are graduates of Mapua Institute of Technology (MIT) and the other one is from Adamson University. MIT used to be the best engineering school in the country. Since they started with the quarterm, the increase in tuition fees and the changing of school name, the quality of teaching suffers.
