maundy thursday

7 pm in new york city . . thank you cheers for our health care workers.

the tasks that have been entrusted to us are often difficult. 
almost everything that matters is difficult, and everything matters.

rainer maria rilke
 worpswede, july 16, 1903
 letters to a young poet

 in the morning and early afternoon it was rainy, and then the sun shone in a blue sky,
but the wind howled all day.
greg, chanda and i had dinner at 7 pm,
and at 7:30 i listened to st. peter's of chelsea's holy thursday service.
after that, we watched an episode of seinfeld, and ate slices of banana bread that i had made.
i also spoke with korrina and jeanette today.

dinner was ditalini with chicken broth, parsley, celery, garlic and parmesano.

  1. Ah, even a letter by Rilke from Worpswede. That is where my mother is now, just 15 minutes by car from our house. I rode my bike through the "Moor" (marsh, bog) to Worpswede many times. That takes about 1 hour. Your food looks good!

    We have SNOW here today. Jonathan, Charlotte, and Flora build two snowmen.

    1. Through the Pennigbütteler Moor or the Niedersandhausen? Or neither :) I was looking at the map. It's nice that you mom is so close to the house.

      I saw snow on Charlotte's IG photo/story. I couldn't believe it!! We've had nothing! I wrote her that I would gladly take some of your snow and give all of you a break :) xoxoxo

  2. Pennigbüttel! You end up at Neu Helgoland, which is at the outskirts of Worpswede. The paths are mostly sand, but it is beautiful! And Breddorf is not far from Worpswede.

    I am tired of snow. After all, it is almost Easter!

    1. Breddorf isn't far at all, and it is very beautiful. That would be a lovely bike ride.

      I hope your snow is melting!
