Another “Honour & Glory” betting event passed … another IIHF World Champion!
Congratz to Finland, for an amazing final and a certainly deserved result!
As for the betting part: unfortunately only the core hockey contestants took part, but still we have winners to celebrate ;)
Congratz: mom, Lisa and me :)

To be slightly more specific: Smokey Joe got a place on our balcony, replacing its predecessor Electric Joe.
And to be fully specific: the new Joe is our new portable charcoal BBQ, from now on doing the grilling job on the balcony (in the new apartment we are actually allowed to use it there) and in the parks.
Hmm … I am looking forward to some serious BBQing with this guy …
Smokey Joe is a registered trademark of Weber (also source of the image).
Even at lunch in the NBI canteen I learned something today … chocolate chicken stew is actually quite nice. Yes you read right, we had chocolate chicken stew in the institute canteen today!
After several year of suffering from and boycotting the DESY canteen in Zeuthen I rediscovered canteen food here Copenhagen. It’s no haute cuisine but it’s fairly good food, which is for Danish standards and compared to DESY not too expensive …
Besides that we had “cake day” at the institute as well … meaning, the whole institute met under the nice magnolia tree in front of our building and ate cake that various people brought … brownies, chocolate, blueberry and marzipan cake … had the all … hmmm
Today Heike and me had our first anniversary as a married couple.
After an easy Sunday morning start, we drove up the eastern coast of Sealand and spent the whole day, including brunch and coffee, at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. They had a very nice lunch buffet and besides the common exhibitions a special on Pablo Picasso (Peace and Freedom) and on David Hockney (Me Draw on iPad) amongst others. We finished the visit with muffins, brownies and some chillin’ by the beach.
All in all a beautiful day to celebrate a very nice first year … love you!
btw. thanks to all that sent mails/messages/letters!
Also since this week we got our landline phone connection back … after some trouble with Telia still having us use the old tenant’s (who hasn’t payed his bills btw.) broadband connection, they now fixed it kinda nicely, though with some time delay.
In addition we have two more visitors that reserved a weekend on our Copenhagen Guest Couch :)
