our youngest daughter Sofia
has a big feeling with animals, 
we  say she got that from
Grand Grand Ma Renèe
who spent her last 30years
feeding the cats on the Graveyard in Villach (asutria)
were she lived.
this is Grand Grand Ma Renèe in 1939

this is Sofi sleeping with one of our 8 cats, Ikea.
or it is the other way around? if you want to know where Ikea is, look for Sofia
Ikea will surely be near
aren't they cute :)

 and here she is with one of the new kittens, it could be Pablo Picasso
or is it Sancho Panza, I can never can  tell..they are identical. : DD

this is a very simple recipe, if you can't find raspberries try with blackberries
it is very nice on a fruitsalad or with a vanilla ice-cream
try it in a mixed salad together with a delicate olive oil, like the one from Lake Garda.
isn't the colour inviting?



you need:
500gr of raspberries
1 liter of apple vinegar or white wine vinegar (max 6% of acidity)

put the raspberries in th vinegar, 
cover with a cloth and let marinate for at least two days.
pour all in a pot and heat up, when it is cooking, 
take off the heat and let cool completely.
filter carefully, 
and pour in small nice looking bottles.
mine are empty Schweppes Tonica bottles
 store in a cool, dark and dry place for
at least one month before serving.
it could be a very nice Christmas gift or not?
