Too Far Afield

Once again a life sign to prove that neither this blog nor its author are dead as of yet ;). When I arrived at my flat yesterday evening, my fridge was of course totally empty. So the first thing I did today was to head out for shopping. Only to be greeted by a closed store. The local press calls this Netto-Umstellung. The store will open up again in August. With a new product line and a new branding. So I walked all the way up to the Aldi store, which is located right at the border to West Berlin ;). I walked out again with lots of tomatoes, mozzarella and radish. As usual, I made some mistakes: Back at home I had two packs of coffee left. But no filters for the coffee machine. Which is bad, because without coffee filters, no coffee. So I wrote Kaffeefilter on my list. But what did I buy? I’m sure you guessed it already. Another pack of coffee. Now I’ve got three packs of coffee and no filters for the machine. Sounds like (Greek|Turkish) coffee is the way to go.
I’ve got lots and lots and lots of things to do for this week. I hope that I can get some things done, finally. At the end of the week I’ll head to Hamburg for a short visit. I’ll be there from Friday night till Wednesday morning, so drop me a line, if you want to meet for a cup of tea. I’ll start tackling my overfull inbox from bottom to top, so chances are I’ll see your mail in time.
