Blora And Some Smores

Some what??? Smores - I havent known what that is until Nicole told me.

Friday afternoon we packed up some food, drinks, plates, lighter, charcoal and of course the kids and drove to Blora. Its a lake where you can hang out, camping, let the kids play, BBQing, go for swimming in the summertime..... aso. Weather was ok - well good enough for us to BBQ out there - btw we where the only ones as far as we could see.......




........ no actually we had company... Mr. Grashopper


First we were looking for treasures - never know what you will find


some driftwood







some more driftwood - some of these would be perfect for my garden plans, but how would it look like at customs with my bags full of it




besides driftwood - we found things they look like they came from outer space





after we filled up boxes and bags with treasures we start to heat up the grill


the "boss" of the grill *lol*


and no the hot dogs weren´t burned - they were just right


after we all ate a bunch of hot dogs - it was time with the experiment "the desert - Smores" - never heared of something like this - are you sure its something to eat!?!

well yeah it is and it looks like this at the beginning (finger doesnt belong to desert *lol*)

cracker - marshmallow - chocolate - cracker


put it on the grill so the chocolate and marshmallow could melt

no, the cracker is not burned - it suppose to be like this *giggle*




anyone who would like to try......... we found an volunteer...... me



and I have survived!

  It was very sweet and messy, I guess I had the melted chocolate all over my face

and just for the fun we put some marshmallows an a stick to heat them up



this was yumieh!!!

and some extreme chillin on the swing





Where Are My Crocs??

Has anyone seen my Crocs? No - where did you put them??? Right next to the door!

We found them.... on these feet
 *lol*

Sunrise And A Trip To Lampasas

This is what I would call a perfect morning......... isnt it a great sunrise???



Its a perfect day to make a trip to Lampasas - a little very cute city, Nicole kept talking about since she has been there the first time. Now I can understand her why..... have a little tour through Lampasas









we met a very nice lady here and had a little chat with her, she told us a bit about Lampasas


an old shut down rail station...... I would love to own this building. Perfect for an huge appartement and alot of creativity area in the back





haven´t been in there but I´m sure I would´ve find some good german food there



Nicole, Soren and I ended up here  "PERKS" to have breakfast




a little coffee shop with some yumieh goodies





an itsy bitsy little tiny quilt shop at the entrance




and some quilts hanging on the wall



the owner even spoke german....... and here again Texas = little Deutschland
