Railroad station

June 30 - Railroad station
Our railroad station (not very visible) and environment. Just wondering how this will look next year.

Just a guy

June 29 - Just a guy
Just a guy playing music on the Rembrandtplein in Amsterdam, where we celebrated the end of our school year with some drinks. We gave him some money and I asked if I could make a photo of him.

The end of time.

Red currants

June 28 - Red currants
Found this in my garden this afternoon. I like the range of colors. From “not ready yet” to “almost ready”.

Lawn mower

June 27 - Lawn mower
Ignored my lawn for some weeks, so today I had to do something about it. These were made after the job.

Shoehorn

June 26 - Shoehorn
A shoehorn and his mirror.

Art again

June 25 - Art again
Another “Wiki loves art” session today after work. The ING art collection. Beautiful modern art. This statue was the only one outside. “Grote steigerende”, 1974, made by Arthur Spronken.

Food 26 – Black pepper jelly with strawberries

Food 26 - Black pepper jelly with strawberries
Blackpepper (just a little bit) jelly with strawberries and a lovely vanilla sauce in what should have been a square of chocolate.

Had some problems with the jelly and my hands are still burning from the hot chocolate. Have to find a better way to handle that.

Anyway, no chance to keep this one for myself. For my kids this is now nr.2 on their list of popular desserts. Panna cotta is still nr.1

Here’s an alternative, a little further away. Not sure which one looks better.
