Art Show food

Juergen and I went to IKEA for breakfast. Afterwards we picked up hotdog packages. These include the hotdogs, buns, pickles and dry onions, as well as mustard and ketchup for 34 people. We bought 3 packages of hot dogs. Then we went to lidl for seedless watermelon, and lettuce, peppers, red onions and tomatoes. The vegetables will be finely chopped as toppings for the hotdogs. The watermelon will be cut in small cubes and mixed with frozen berries for a fruit salad. All this is for Nicole's art show opening. The theme is an American road trip. That is why we are serving hot dogs instead of French cheese. We expect maybe 100 people. Germany plays football tonight, so maybe there will be fewer people? But the show starts at 7pm, and the game is not until 9pm. We hope to be home to see the 2nd half of the game.

A big day all the way around. I am glad you and Juergen got to spend a little time together.

Your garden is looking great. Your Dad would be so very pleased.

I'm sure Nicoles' show will be wonderful. I want to hear all about it.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi...

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to h...
