Corn Tortillas

Look what we found! Surprisingly, we have been getting some good avocados around here lately.

We were in the mood for Mexican food, and didn’t feel like spending 4 Euros on taco shells or tortillas, so I decided to make some. I mixed some polenta with regular flour and a bit of water, fried them up in a pan, and that was that.

They turned out a bit chewier than I like, but Milo enjoyed them. He had roasted a little chicken, so we made taco salads which we reasoned were a bit healthier than tacos. It is hard to go wrong with guacamole!

 

Birthday weekend in Baden-Baden

The weekend before last (24. March) we went to Baden-Baden. Milo had his last badminton game of the season and Eugen had a party on Saturday night.

On Sunday we woke up to beautiful weather – warm and sunshiney! First breakfast of 2012 on the patio!

The boys went for a bike ride up to the castle in the afternoon and Sandra and I hung out on the patio and relaxed. It was so nice! Then they came back and made a grill themed dinner (which we ate outside) of French Merguez sausages (first time!) and calamari.

Guys who cook (really well!) are the best!

Carpe Diem indeed.
