This is what fruit is suppose to look like.
Raspberries/Frambozen
Blackberries/Bramen
Red Currents/Rode Stroom
And Gooseberries/ Kruisbessen (I had never had these before and I’m like a kid with these, where I eat so many I get sick).
I had a salmon salad for lunch (sorta like a tuna salad….) and a herring with onions. I still need a photo of me eating a herring in the traditional Dutch way. Maybe next Saturday.
I have been taking photos with all the animals around here recently and this afternoon when I came upstairs, Sharky was sleeping on our bed. He is the eldest cat and pretty much sleeps all day. But he is also a legend. He has lived on mostly mice and rats and birds his whole life (catching them himself) has brought home countless weasels, mice and rats for Lora and Dutch and has survived being poisoned. He deserves to take some time for himself in his old age.
Then there is Zus. She is a lover cat and the most well behaved baby ever. She had a tick on her neck a few weeks ago and I had to hold her down to get it. Not one squirm. She sat VERY still. Then another tick a few days later, which I accidentally pulled the butt off of and had to use tweezers to get the rest of it out. She just lay there patiently. She is so awesome!
And there is Prutzer (I probably spelled his name wrong). He is Hanneke's cat and a lover as well. He always comes in and meows at us if he is wet or hungry.
This is not nearly all the animals we have though. I havnt shown Toby, Flecky, the turtles, fish, Geese, Chickens or.... Big Red...The other orange cat (My name for him is Romeo.) He is Zus's brother and just as sweet, only a bit more feisty when it comes to holding him.
OH....
Another cool event that happened. Last night after dinner, I was in the kitchen and Dutch yelled for me to come to look out the window. There was this....
SO FREAKING CLOSE. Dutch told me that I needed to watch out for them when I was up on the roof naked. lol.
I havn't gone up to the hot tub yet...but its good advice.
