Bob Hatches A Cunning Plan At The Spur Of The Moment.

Not our typical Friday afternoon.

Bob came home half an hour early having worked through lunch but still ate the lunch I packed him, once he had sat down and had taken his shoes off. Isn't it funny how the stresses of work get kicked off along with the shoes? Amazingly, the lunch I had made and packed at five in the morning was still pleasantly cool. Nice to know that the ice blocks work. Absolutely fabulous to have him home a bit earlier.

A few minutes after having eaten a big salad of pinto beans & greens and a sandwich ( tomatoes from our garden, onions not ) he ventured towards our fridge to look for dessert knowing full and well that he'd finished the recently discovered ice cream all by himself. You guessed it, I didn't like the flavour...salty peanut butter ice cream ( plant based of course ) is not for everyone but amazingly Bob seems to love it.

"Honey, I think we should quickly drive to Kohfidisch to get petrol for the lawnmower and a few odds and ends for our larder. "
Fair enough, unwinding from work doesn't always have to involve a couch and a good book. As I was about to put on my shoes he added.
" Oh, and don't forget to take our cooler box along. "
The whole excursion might have been planned around stocking up on more peanut butter ice cream...and wouldn't you know, they had a special on all ice creams...25 % off. Nice, with such an offer I couldn't help but sneak in strawberry and chocolate nougat ice cream too. Oh, how I love our new fridge-freezer. Best buy ever!

By the way, a quick trip to the Kohfidisch Spar is a fabulous way to catch up on the local goings-on as many an Eisenberger pops in quickly to get this that or a whole trolley full. Life mercifully still retains its gentle pulse with people respecting the old tradition of taking the time to have a good old chat in the middle of aisle 3.
