ready to crumble - rosinenbrötchen for the weekend breakfast ready to crumble - rosinenbrötchen for the weekend breakfast butter and jamready to crumble – rosinenbrötchen:
Get ready for the weekend! Yesterday evening I put some flour, butter, milk, raisins, sugar, yeast, and vanilla in a pot and this morning the dough was ready to “Rosinenbrötchen”.
About 35 minutes at 160 C and 10 minutes at about 200 C with hot air (for the color) and
not only have saved you the time and money to queue in this morning at a bakery shop you also got the smell in the house.
Have a nice weekend !

(Notice the Herder Windmühlen Breakfast knife, a must have. Get in in carbon steel !)

Blair witch rodeln:
Just came back from rodeln (slaying – “toboganing”) with Stefan.  Weather conditions were perfect, lots of snow – we had to go. With some Petzl led-headlights you can easily go for a hike in the darkness. After 45 minutes we reached the mountain restaurant “Dole” had some drinks and french fries. On the way up and down we had a lots of wind and fog, quite nice atmosphere. Worst visibility was around 8 m best right down to Bregenz from the Pfänder about a 1 km.

I swear I thought a  Red Wing 8103 recommended by Eric would be my next. But when I saw the above 8138 Red Wing even 1 size too small I had to buy it. This boot for about 80 Euros in nearly mint condition , no wear on the leather just a bit on the soles. Great patina, lighter brown at the toes getting darker to the heels.
I really wonder how he had worn them?
They came done with the laces for “step in” and tiny “loops”.
The denim color on the inside of the shoe tongues also puzzles me, does someone really wears his jeans really that high or inside the boot?
How can you leave so little marks on the leather, never any crawling home from a bar/nightclub?

They will be on Ebay soon or go to a friend with size 43, drop me a line
if you are interested. SOLD !

Im glad last weekend Manfred from Feinschmuck gave me an article in the newspaper to read about Robert Kaufmann. At his website, about the first words you read “Die schönsten Messer der Welt” (the most beautiful knifes of the world). That´s a ambitious statement and I think it is true. Unfortunately I could not visit him by now but I definitely have to see him for a chat, to see his knifes / works, take some photos and even ask him to craft a knife for me. The most difficult task is to just choose – only one knife.

Here a video about Robert Kaufmann in german.

Interesting approach. I love Fjällräven, this brand and G1000 is unbeatable. I guess I have to take some images of my over 10 year old hiking trousers. They are still fine and have still some life for more hikes in them.

Infos about the Fjällräven Anorak No. 8, I really like the high colar.

Element – Emerald Collection launch shoe care set giveaway: Elements new Emerald Collection was launched during Bread & Butter in Berlin. At the launch party the first 100 guests received a special gift (made by Seil Marschall), thanks Kiki for the invitation.

The collection launch of this new brand was a success. Not just the gift was great, the party with lots of interesting folks from all over the world and lots of Jameson Whiskey was outstanding.

Ha just found a video posted by Highsnobiety of the event (sec. 9 you can see me in the background near the entrance.)
