Red in the Morninglight
Tea with Puppenkrapfen, anyone?


I got only one quick shot
of the tulips being kissed by the morning sun,
then the brief moment was gone.

The apartment came with a white kitchen
white tiles and red grout,
even on the floor!

Apart from this little design flaw,
it's a great Miele kitchen
with ingenious cabinet features.

I have learned to love it
and play with the red accents.

I even got myself a fire engine red
KitchenAid mixer. ;-)

Every now and then, I go domestic.
Here's a picture from my blog,

Please help yourself
to a cup of tea and a
Puppenkrapfen!

  2. Danke, die waren sooo lecker!

    I love your red accents in the kitchen, the tulips and magic mushrooms . . .
    you were lucky just to have red grout, before the fire our otherwise splendid kitchen on Mt.Lofty had a gruesome yellow linoleum floor and fire-engine red counter tops!

  7. You can repost these puppenkrapfen eight days a week for all I care. (I threw a little tune in there for you.) I love your kitchen. I've never seen red grout before. It has a very Mittel Europa feel, which of course I love due to my fraternal Slovak roots. Stay warm and cozy.

  8. Your mushrooms are too cute for words, your white tile with red grout is even cuter, and your pastries have quite possibly the funniest name I have ever heard... 8-) (but they look delicious!).

  10. You take great pictures, no matter what you use.

    I have to say that when I saw the name of the pastries, I was reminded (again) of what my dogs have been doing in the snow...

  15. I really miss my Sony Cybershot too. The new camera does give better macros but the zoom isn't very good at all.
    Love this repost.
