The fortnight that spring began
Happy Sunday! I’m just trying to finish this up so I can go outside and have a bit of a frolick, because oh my has the world turned beautiful in the last couple of weeks.
Ice. Ice. Ladies.
I feel like I’m at the stage in my life where I can’t say or think of the word ice, without getting Vanilla ‘Ice-Ice Baby’ stuck in my head all day. This is a problem, because icecream in German is also ‘Eis’. And man, do I think about Eis a lot.
Better Bagels
I’m going to be honest. I just called this post ‘better bagels’ so that everyone knows that my bagels are better than Joram‘s . I’m petty like that.
Fortnight-Thoughtnight
Ugh! Do you want to know how long it just took me to work out how to spell fortnight/foughtrghtnight/thoughtnit? I think I need a nap. Or some sun. Very much hanging out for Spring right now!
The 2016 Christmas Letter/At the end of the year
Hi Everyone, I think most of us can agree that 2016 has been a pretty stressful and terrifying year for the world at large. So, I hope you won’t mind excusing me briefly as, apart from a general wish that next year runs a lot more peacefully and inclusively in 2017, I take a break from the world and give a run-down of the last 365-or-so days in the Armaniewski household.
When your friends win at birthdays.
This birthday was a fairly magnificent event, which made me feel extremely loved, and made me also feel certain that the insanity and amazingness of the MPI crew means that such a birth-stravaganza will never be matched in the remaining years of my life.
Falling leaves
Well last week was my birthday, which was filled with lovely cake, thoughtful gifts and a rather large surprise. Trust me, you’ll be seeing more on that later. But for now, let’s go back a week, to Pau’s birthday, and one of the last moments of Autumn.
Golden Canola
Over the last couple of days, forced to come into work on the weekend to write our respective theses (almost finished… almost done!), Iman and I have taken the opportunity to go for a couple of walks past the nearby fields in Golm. Now that the rains have come, and everything looks completely different again, I thought I’d put up a quick throw-back post from the beginning of Summer.
Klappbar
I thought I’d just put a very short update about our balcony.
