stefada, that beautiful new bridge in on my bucket list
- along with the old, romantic bridge in St Affrique.
Just leafed through a Google page of pictures from St Affrique.
The spire of your church looks like the one on Notre Dame that vanished
ChrisRasmussen, the restaurant you mention certainly has an interesting selection of food.
The restaurant I went to has been restored by a shipping man who has restoring certain houses as his hobby.
Among other things, he has given the old highway inn Rønnede Kro not far from me an overhaul as well.
So it was frikadelle, I ate. Very good!
– for our English speaking visitors:
Frikadelle (singularum)/frikadeller (plural)
are Danish meatball(s) to be enjoyed hot with potatoes etc. or cold in open sandwiches (smørrebrød)

Good Morning once more Base Campers!
Business
It’s a pleasure to welcome
NixChix to our trek to Denmark.
As it happens, you’re pretty close to Scandinavia these days.
Did you take any pictures of the Esch-sur-Alzette airfield?
If so you may want to show them to us upon your return to California
- imgur.com seems to be good for hosting
Is your son well enough to accompany you on the trip?
As you can see from the list of the crew, you’re in good company.
You never met cswchan before
– he’s a very senior Base Camper from Mississauga, Canada, who has returned to his roots.
None of us ever met [CSF] Christian Carquilla in our crew before.
He was our temporary team mate during our Crunchers Sans Frontiers trek.
It’s so refreshing with new people.
acpartsman turned into [CSF] Damon Hill – besides, it’s his birthday tomorrow.
The rumour mill is grinding really well today
It’s a nice thing you put BOINC on your phone, NixChix
In case you want to use it for e.g. navigating during your trip,
you may want to suspend it periodically in the daytime for battery reasons.
NixChix your Base Camp crew partners at the moment are:
cswchan
little mermaid
Doneske
Stefada
[CSF] Christian Carquilla
[CSF] Damon Hill
TLD
and
OldChap who tells me that
- the old cartetaker at Notre Dame is not absolutely sure who set the fire...... but he has a hunch

Chit-chat
My Easter lunch was great.
Good food and good company, impeccable blue sky, trees budding, not enough wind for the wind turbines to rotate .....
Perfect!

EDIT: I forgot a 't' in OldChap's Notre Dame item
and I expanded the explanation of 'frikadelle(r)'

…at Notre Dame...the bees are safe!

Yes! I read that, too
180.000 bees survived in time to pollinate the numerous chestnut tree flowers and what have you

Do you call chestnuts dogwoods?
Or do you mean to say the dogwoods
are flowering just now at your place?

Souvent, vous me faîtes des compliments sur la cuisine. Aujourd'hui, je voudrais rendre hommage à ma maman, en vous disant ce qu'elle nous a préparé pour le repas de famille ce midi. Je crois que vous comprendrez mieux pourquoi j'aime les bonnes recettes.

- Empanadas aux crevettes
- Foi gras poêlé
- Brochettes de noix de coquille Saint Jacques toutes fraîches
- Daube de sanglier, accompagnée de cèpes
- salade
- fromage
- un Saint Honoré en dessert

----------

Often you give me compliments for cooking. Today, I would like to pay tribute to my mother, telling you what she has prepared for the family meal this afternoon. I think you will understand better why I like good recipes.

- Shrimp empanadas
- Pan-fried foie gras
- Skewers of fresh scallops
- Boar stew, accompanied by porcini mushrooms
- salad
- cheese
- a Saint Honoré for dessert

Never have enough time since I retired 5 years ago... Went on a trek in 2014 to iHelpforum and just parked there for about 5 years... Oh well.
