a perfect morning..



my favourite cinnamon bun from the local market..



this time, they also had a yummy easter bunny ..



I've also picked up some homemade jam from the same stall. It said strawberry rhubarb on the lid, which already sounded perfect to me, but when I opened it, it turned out to be the best cassis jam I've ever tasted... :)..
pretty perfect outcome of this morning.







The only reason I was up so early were two doctor appointments I had this morning. And I can't even express, how much relief I felt after I got the clearing after the first one. I haven't shared any of this while it was happening, but it was frightening.

Very overtired, but highly motivated, I went on a little roadtrip, trying to find this architectural gem of a chapel, that's supposed to hide somewhere close to my hometown. Well, actually, I say hide now, because I never found it..
Instead, I came on a road, I've never been on before. You have to imagine, despite this being a rural area, there are tons of roads. If you follow any road in some village, most likely, it will take you somewhere .. often, there are many roads, going to the same destination .. all paved (you have to look very hard to find any dirt road here). I grew up here, so I didn't really wonder about this, until I lived somewhere else.. Now, I find it quite obsessive and definitely not necessary.

What I found was a deep valley.. that road was much steeper than it looks in the picture...with those purple flowers peeking out from under dried leaves everywhere... it smelled like spring. I climbed and jumped around and laid down for a while in the middle of those flowers.

And the battery of my camera died :)
