WEEKEND REVIEW - October 1

I wanted to try out a new restaurant in this new built area in Waterloo. It looks very nice. Unfortunately we couldn't eat outside the weather had cooled down.



All restaurants make a special price for lunches and usually the prices vary between 10 and 15 € sometimes with drinks. I had been told that the food was very good and indeed it was delicious, it was the real sophisticated cuisine ! But !!



This was all we got ! Very nicely presented, but nothing for a hungry man or woman ! We just had enough and certainly not too much. As the restaurant is so new, the responsible wanted to know what we think. I told him that the food is delicious and well prepared, but the portions were too small for an adult man. He took note and we left, and had a coffee with a piece of cake at home. We won't certainly not go back there.



I went to visit Ilona, who couldn't walk because she had bumped into a step and her toe was all blue and swollen and it hurt ! She showed me the pumpkins she had bought on a special pumpkin market because she knows a lot of recepes to prepare sweet and salty plates and soups.



As she also has a cat collection she had bought this one which is glued on a cushion. It looked so real that I thought she had a new kitten ! But then I saw the kitten in the kitten and thought that this is not possible !

We had been so spoiled with the beautiful warm weather in the last few weeks that it was sad to see a grey and rainy sky on Sunday. I had to put the heating on because it was quite chilly. So I spent the day with TV and computer and caught up a lot of things I had neglected. Mr. G. played cards on his computer and the cats were laying around on sofa and beds. A lazy Sunday !
