Weekend with some kitsch

Martin came back from France on Friday (instead of Saturday!). It’s much nicer having him near rather than so far away. I missed him a lot.

We spent half the weekend in Düsseldorf shopping along the Kö (the Champs-Élysées of Düsseldorf) and the other half biking in Martin’s city and enjoying the sun.

I bought a new outfit on our shopping trip to the Kö, which makes me feel great. We also sat by the river and watched the Porsche’s, Maserati’s, and other nice cars drive by.

The next day at Martin’s, we biked over to the adjacent town to visit a big community garage sale. I almost bought a kitschy egg tray shaped as a rooster for 50 cents, but Martin said No because he thought it was hideous. It kind of was but that’s the charm of kitsch. Maybe he’s right though – I would never eat that many eggs myself, nor would I serve eggs fit for a tray at any dinner party.

We are back in Düsseldorf now and need to catch some rest for an early work day tomorrow. Gute Nacht!
