Dear anita,

thanks for the congrats! I am glad I finally (almost – because of the printing) finished this project!! It took me so long. But slowly, I am getting it done!

You can also prepare the Quarkkeulchen without raisins, in fact, I didn’t use any. But I don’t know if I would use cottage cheese, instead of quark. Cottage cheese looks quite lumpy, while quark is smooth. If I didn’t have quark, maybe I would try a mixture of sour cream and cream cheese. But oh well, maybe cottage cheese will also do! As for the Königsberger Klopse, I haven’t eaten them in a while. I seldomly cook meat dishes, but I would like to try cooking them one day! And you are right that they are tasty!

Today I am feeling pretty good. Much better than last week! I went for an early morning walk and spotted more nettles. They are only 1-5 cm long, but they are there. There were also other herbs, I even saw small wood garlic leaves. Soon I will be able to pick some. I am so happy that spring is coming. This winter was cold and sad. But now the days are getting longer again, the birds are singing and plants are starting to awaken again!

After I came home I looked at project C and what has to be done there. Then while my lunch was cooking, I started to clean up for a bit and finished after eating. In the afternoon I worked on project C and started a new illustration. Hopefully, I can finish it quickly. I am getting a bit tired of my old projects and would rather start something new. There is a lot that I am not satisfied with. I am even embarrassed by some things… But I have to finish them now, as they are. And then I will feel relieved and free to start something new.

Tomorrow I have to work more on project C. If I am really good, I can finish it tomorrow. But I will see. Overall, I want to stick to my routines. Then I also have to clean some more and exercise.

I wish you a good rest of your Sunday!
