Away

Tilian is sick and Kellin has been quarantined as a precaution. I am on a work trip to Munich so it was extra difficult to leave them until tomorrow night.

Windpark

We have a new windpark north of our village. 250m high wind mills. The moon illusion hits hard with them, they overshadow the village from one end, and look tiny from the closer end. Strange to see.

Got two Speed Champion BTTF sets (#77256) for the boys. We watched the first two movies over the holidays for the first time with them and they loved it. Coincidentally Lego released this set January 1st.

Craspedia globosa

Taken in our garden. […]Craspedia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae commonly known as billy buttons, billy balls, and woollyheads. They are native to Australia and New Zealand where they grow in a variety of habitats from sea level to the Southern Alps.[…] (Wikipedia) - I’d would have called them yellow balls.

Vet

Snow

First proper snow this season. The boys loved it. Aika was slightly annoyed.

So I built an RSS reader. I wanted something simple for myself. Read my feeds, mark things as read, move on.

Reading

I don’t read enough books. I manage reading a few pages maybe one evening every two weeks. I can turn on something on Youtube or a podcast in the car without thinking. A book I have to actively pick up.

Sourdough

My wife started baking bread. Here’s her spelt (Deutsch: Dinkel) sourdough recipe. It took quite a few iterations to get it right.
