Spring is here in Germany!

Spring is in the air!  Looking at Eileen`s shivering dog, I thought I should send you a weather and garden report from Germany. While China and other parts of the world are suffering from extremely cold weather and heavy snow, we have another very mild winter.

Look at the picture of the Gertrude Jekyll rose in January! We have never seen a rose blossoming in January, but this winter everything is possible and this rose has never stopped blossoming since May last year!


We love watching the growth of our first spring flowers in the garden, which are already in bloom.

We can even sit in front of our house in warm sweaters and enjoy the sunshine and the arrival of spring.  Here I am with grandchildren Samy and Lilly posing for Opa Dieter!

    Maria & Dieter

    We are a German couple living near the romantic Rhine valley and the cities of Cologne and Bonn in Germany.  Three years ago we met Susan through the internet and have become great friends.  We have so much in common and share a passion for antiques, good food and traveling, that it is fun to meet and do things together.  Over the last 3 years we have met Susan and her sister Eileen in Paris, Germany and the USA.  We are already planning our next trips to Provence and Prague and Dieter and I feel honored to provide photos, comments, reports and recipes from Europe to Susan and Eileen's blog.
