This is what my 'hood looks like on a lazy Sunday morning in August. I love to walk the small streets up to the little bakery that opens at 8, the wind carrying the smell of freshly baked bread rolls in my direction. I made it home with the rolls still warm. Orange marmalade, coffee, bliss.

Peacock Eye
It was much too hot to wear my new Supra sneakers yesterday. I should have known it but then I really wanted to try them out because they are so beautiful and brand-new.
I went to my favourite café in the city of Essen, together with my dear friend S. They had run out of my beloved Kremschnitte, so I settled on a slice of cake called "Pfauenauge" (peacock eye) which was delicious!
I always regret that I can't eat more than one piece because those cakes are really rich. But I plan to not leave this planet before I have tried all their cakes ;)
The café has maintained its wonderful Fifties style and atmosphere despite some (thankfully) careful restoration.
It attracts a mixed audience although it is most frequented by older ladies like me ;) who love the slow pace and the absence of background music.
