DAY 21


Aktivity:  I went swimming again - going swimming also always includes a 14km bikeride btw.

I would like to recommend something even though it's not an activity:

Do you know this feeling?: You moved to a new city and you need a drill to put up a shelf or a hammer to put some nails in the wall to hang up some pictures? Or you want to go on vacation but you don't have a suitcase... All these items you don't really need to own because you need them only a few times a year and the rest of the time they are filling up your apartment... so you don't want to BUY them?!

There is a solution for this - at least if you are living in Berlin - you can BORROW it. You just have to sign up HERE. I think this is such an awesome idea that I registered some tools which we own and our ladder - ladders are actually quite expensive - and how often do you need a ladder?

It looks like a shop - but you don't have to buy the things. It's completely free. You just have to register 3 things to lend and then you can start borrowing things yourself. It's so awesome.


Food:

Breakfast:

Lunch:  Flammkuchen - the recipe for the dough I wrote down  HERE. The difference between Flammkuchen and Pizza is actually only the topping. You need ham and onions and instead of tomato-sauce you have to put "Schmand" or "Saure Sahne" or "Crème légère" or "Crème fraiche" which all translate to sour cream - but they contain different percentages of fat. I was always wondering about that - but now I know. So next time you are in a supermarket looking for sour cream you know the different aquivalents we have here in Germany.

Before

After

The rest of the dough I formed into little "Brötchen". I have to say, the form I chose is maybe not the most appetizing form I see now.

Dinner:  Nevertheless they taste good and I had them for dinner. Not all of them of course!

Transportation: Bike

Total spendings today: I bought some stuff to put on my Brötchen - it was rather expensive I would say:
cheese: 2,75€ + meatstuff 4,19€ = 6,94€.
(The "Schmand" I got from my mother the other day and the ham I found in the fridge - it wasn't mine - but I think if I didn't eat it, it would've ended up in the garbage)
