Lazy Sunday
Sep. 12th, 2021 07:02 pmHubby was helping out number two while I did the cooking. Since none of us eats after five lunch is the main meal of the day and has to be special on a Sunday. We had minestrone, involtini alla Tedesca (pork instead of veal), and I did a cake!!!

Crumble cake with plums and pudding- tasty, but I should have put more sugar onto the plums. Bad summer weather results in fruits not as sweet as usual.
We spent the afternoon on the terrace in the sun. Tomorrow´s the big day- school will start anew, so all children in the gardens around were frolicking happily for a last time. The poor ones had a lousy summer this year! Thanks God almost all of them are well-behaved and not so loud, because I vividly remember number four´s friends he had in the neighbourhood- the louder the better! Unfortunately at some point I thought I had a tinnitus coming on. A high-pitched hum made me cringe, but when hubby noticed it, too, we knew it had to be something else. Even when you are married for 43 years you won´t fall for a tinnitus at the same time! Hubby dashed for the technic room (to me it´s the room of panic, there are so many spiders down there), because he thought that the pool pump might be the causer, but it wasn´t. We still do not know what marred such a wonderfully warm day, but at some point we gave up and went inside, because that hum reminded us of the sounds you hear at a dentist...And just a few minutes later idiot son of neighbours further away began to play techno music at full volume. Parents are on vacation, he himself is unemployed, so he sleeps during day and gets up in the evening then drinks the night away with his friends. It will go boom- boom- boom until ten in the evening. At least the lad knows when it´s time to turn off the racket or the police might show up! Can I please have the hum back, it sounded so much nicer!
