I was mentally devising many scenarios bringing you to Germany :-) One of the things that made me think you were English is that you refer to your mother as 'Mum' and I just naturally jumped to an English conclusion.

After a lifetime of cooking, first for family then for husband, I would simply eat from the deli every day.<br />PS...I went back through your blog trying to find mention of how an English girl (you) came to live/work in Germany. I am curious ... can you tell me or is this too personal a 'thing' for a blog?Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791018174075586241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-63365341487254169682011-01-18T08:34:38.590+01:002011-01-18T08:34:38.590+01:00My Farmhouse Kitchen, if I do buy eggs, I always b...My Farmhouse Kitchen, if I do buy eggs, I always buy them in a small box. Otherwise I'd end up throwing some out, and I do not want that.<br /><br />Jill, yes, of course there are plenty of eateries about - I just do not need to have a hot meal every day, it makes me tired.<br />But I get taken out for dinner quite often and I can also go to my mum's whenever I wish :-)<br />Actually, I enjoy cooking when I know there is someone coming for dinner. I simply can't be bothered to spend much time in the kitchen when it is just myself and the cat.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-63978592402135293372011-01-17T22:40:56.322+01:002011-01-17T22:40:56.322+01:00Since you don't cook, I presume you have near-...Since you don't cook, I presume you have near-by places you eat?
