Weekly Review 

What we ate

Monday – Leftovers from Sunday lunch

Tuesday – Dinner with my uncle-in-law at Restaurant Orphée in Regensburg. French cuisine. I had the salmon and tuna fish spread as an appetizer and the entrecôte with grilled veggies and sauce Bernaise.

Wednesday –

Thursday – Stuffed peppers with white rice. Somehow this is a true favorite of the girls. Doesn´t fit into their usual food scale but as long as they eat something I do not care.

Friday –

Saturday – We had a very late lunch (or even early dinner) at the Fuchsgarten in Riedenburg. I ate bratwurst and kraut and my husband had meat patties and potatoe salad. The girls of course french fries.

Sunday – My most favorite food in the whole wide world – chicken stew with dumplings made of semolina.

What I wore

What we did

On Tuesday my uncle-in-law (I know that this is not exactly the right term but I like it) invited all the girls of the family for our yearly dinner. We went to the French restaurant Orphée in downtown Regensburg. Everything we had was really really delicious. Did not expect that to be honest. One of the best steaks I have ever eaten.

On Saturday we finally cashed in Emilia´s birthday wish (or her birthday tradition) and went to Riedenburg way up high to the Rosenburg. Two times a day you can watch trained falconer interact with the big birds like sea hawks or vultures. Really interesting and the girls love it every year.

After the bird show we drove back down into Riedenburg cause my mom recommended the Fuchsgarten Biergarten to us and it was really nice. Playground and petting zoo for the kids and a very nice seating area to have your food. It is self service but honestly I do prefer that cause I think it´s a lot quicker than waiting for the food and the girls do appreciate that.

Saturday evening I attended a very cool Line Dance festivity with the band Mountain Four. We danced and enjoyed the music and it was really nice.

Misc

The majority of our weekend plans happened on Saturday. The saying „When it rains, it pours“ really hits us a lot around here.

Weekly Review

A full week with Easter brunch, Easter break for the girls and our visit in Salzburg. The weather has been inbetween good and bad. We had plenty of sunshine and warmth but also gray days with rain. I love having all girls at home but can´t get much done in terms of cleaning and tidying up.

What we ate 

Monday – Was our family´s big Easter brunch with so many delicous treats. 

Tuesday – Of course we had plenty of leftovers from our brunch so we ate them today.

Wednesday – Noodles of cours. With butter for the girls and arrabiata sauce and parmesan cheese for us.

Thursday – Salmon (made in the air fryer) and broccoli.

Friday – We had the most amazing Chinese food in Salzburg. Terriaky Duck !!!!

Saturday – Went out to a Line Dance party and has some steak and grilled veggies there.

Sunday – We were invited to brunch by our friends and had lots of different dishes. Of course there were many many leftovers and we ate those in the evening as well.

What I wore 

I think Spring fashion has finally taken over. No coats in sight anymore.

What we did

In comparison to last week this was definitely a breeze. We rescheduled our Easter Brunch to Monday so the week started amazingly with good food and family time. We had plenty of different dishes from waffles, to salmon and tuna dips to stuffed peppers and mushrooms, lots of different bread and so much more. I made my carrot cake on a sheet pan this time and it was even easier especially with the frosting than all the years before.

My husband and I and our littlest sidekick – of course – spent two days (or exactly 24 hours) in Salzburg. We had one gorgeous day and one not so gorgeous but we made the best out of it. The big girls stayed at their grandma´s. It is great to have some time to walk around and talk about all the things that happened cause with three kids the day to day life is often very busy and sometimes we don´t even know what is going on in each others life. I never thought this would happen but is saddly does so we take day trips very often to reconnect. Staying at beautiful places and have some sights to look at and good food is the cherry on top.

Misc 

How is it that you always think about moving to a place when you are on vacation. I think about it everytime and look up rental prices, good districts and kindergarten. Food prices and if the company my husband works is anywhere near. Really funny but my brain just lashes out.

Happy Easter everyone. I hope you had some nice days with your family or even a nice holiday wherever you are. Easter is the holiday of hope and we could all need some after everything that is going on in the world. 

Weekly Review

What we ate

Not a very creative week as we maily ate leftovers simply because there is no need in throwing away good food from the day before.

Monday – Leftovers from Sunday´s lunch with my inlaws and Mc Donald´s for lunch after the indoor climbing place. I love the chicken Ceasar wrap. The dressing is really good.

Tuesday – I made fried rice with shrimp and vegetables and egg and to my surprise everyone loved it

Wednesday – Butter noodles it was cause I had no time to cook. Not my nor the girl´s day. We all had been in a bad mood

Thursday – I make this chickpea tuna salad on a frequent base. I really love the taste of it altogether and it is filling as well

Friday – We had leftover pizza from the birthday party

Saturday – Still leftover cake and pizza from the kids birthday party

Sunday – Easter brunch and took home many leftovers and ate them at home for dinner

What I wore

Easter Sunday had the perfect Summer weather. So glad cause I did´t want to wear my white and lavender Easter look in the cold rain.

What we did 

Since the girls have been on Easter break I was looking for activities to do with all the girls. There is a climbing indoor playground nearby which is a lot better than a usual indoor playground. The girls loved it and climbed and slided for two solid hours. After that we went to McDonalds for lunch.

On Wednesday the weather was really bad and the girls did not know what to do with themselves so we went out for ice cream to a nearby Italian café.

Thursday we drove to Abensberg to the Easter market. The area was really cool decorated with lots of Easter eggs and bunnies and the girls loved the round-about.

On Friday it was my big girl´s kids birthday party. I had 6 girls over as guests plus my 3. Quite a lot going on but they all behaved really well and had fun coloring and looking for little treasures in the sand box. As you can see the theme has been mermaid and I loved everything about the decor. So fun putting this up.

On Saturday it was my dad´s birthday and the whole family went out for lunch to Parzefall in Regensburg-Burgweinting. I had the beef stew with dumplings and the others the meat trio and it was sensational. Every single category of every dish was amazing. Definitely going there again soon.

Easter Sunday after church we went to my inlaws house for Easter brunch. All of my husbands family was there and we had a rich meal in food and conversation. The girls looked for their Easter baskets and played outside. The weather couldn´t been better. All in all a very happy and satisfying day.

Misc

I did not have much of  a color concept for this years Easter outfits but immediately knew that those purple flower dresses would be amazing. How adorable is the caridgan with the yellow and purple knitted flowers !!!

Weekly Review

It was our big girl´s 6th birthday this week and maybe you can guess the theme? If you said Mermaid you guessed right;) I am posting a full review of the whole decor and our table decor and also the guest bags next week. How gorgeous is this cake. I think I say it every time but this was the prettiest cake we have ever had.

What we ate

Monday – Sunday leftovers of course

Tuesday – Pasta with meat sauce. You can never go wrong with this one. Everyone in our house loves it and I always make extra so we can have some leftovers for lunch.

Wednesday – My husband was away for soccer this evening so I made myself some excellent girl dinner.

Thursday – I made pulled beef on a random Thursday and it was so delicious. The smell when you come home and the pulled beef cooks in the CrockPot. The anticipation. So good.

Friday – We had Indian food. Always a family favorite. Everyone loves a hearty sauce and chicken and rice. Chicken Tikka Masalla is my personal go-to. You can never go wrong with it no matter what country you are in.

Saturday – I was away doing my instructor so I had some chickpea salad with me (chickpeas, tuna, mozarella cheese, olive oil and some spices).

Sunday – Lunch at my inlaws. We had Pizza delivered. I got one with fresh ham and parmesan cheese and rocket.

What I wore

From ballet flats to cowboy boots and from denim jackets to trenchcoats, we had everything this week. Weatherwise as well – from sun over rain to snow and hail.

What we did

We had our playgroup Easter brunch on Thursday. Everyone brought a little something so we had an amazing buffet and the little kids searched their crafted Easter baskets.

I had day 3 and 4 of my Line Dance instructor on Saturday and Sunday, which means I am officially done with part 1. Part 2 and 3 will follow in the Fall.

Misc

I definitely think that this Summer will be as bad as the last one. I just have a really bad feeling cause Spring time has been the same cool and rainy months as the year prior. I have looked into a summer vacation in Croatia cause I can not spend another whole 6 weeks inside with kids that don´t know what to do and me neither.

The week ahead is going to be a very stressful one. The girls are home on Easter break and I have the kid´s birthday party on Friday and we also have Easter brunch at my inlaws on Sunday and our own brunch on Monday.
