Brom does very little

Coocoo

Here I am again! I was raring to go again today, but Mara and Gera felt a day of rest was in order. So, that's what we did. Although they did plenty. 

At the beginning of the Hardanger Plains
They went shopping (again), but this time they only got some groceries. Well, and a coat for Gera, but it's a really nice one. 

If you want peace and quiet...
Mara played around on the computer a lot, but she says she wants some music when we're traveling to the Netherlands in August, so I guess it's ok. 

Cold!
When we drove back from the Hardanger Plains the weather was so bad, it was really dark by the time we got home at 11.15pm. Last night however there was no rain and hardly any clouds. So, Mara and Gera actually left the house at 10.30 to drive up Steinsfjellet (Stone Mountain) to see the sunset. 

Sun setting over Haugesund
Unfortunately some clouds were coming in off the sea obscuring the sunset, but it was the best night of the holiday, so they were happy anyway. 

Gera's new coat
There had been several plans for today, but in the end they decided to bake 'beschuiten'. It's a Dutch bready type foodable that is not made of bread at all. I think I might have to supervise here, because you never know what they will end up baking if not!

    Brom, it seems you have your work cut out for you, keeping the sisters motivated and in some order - and you are succeeding!!! That is a splendid sunset, even with the clouds and the coat looks just right for going out and about in 'iffy' summer weather. ...(three days in a row the weatherman has told us we will have sunshine and good temps - three times he's got it wrong...) Hope those biscuits turn out tasty!!! Hugs and growlies, YAM-aunty xxx

    1. The weatherman better be right today: there's a load of washing drying outside!

      The beschuiten are going fine so far. But it sure smells funny in the kitchen now!

  2. What a beautiful sunset! Good luck with the baking project. Ghostwriter hardly ever bakes anything anymore.

    1. I do like baking, just not just for me. So, when my sister is here we bake together. I hate making the dough and she is ok with it!
