Last day of LD for me has been productive so far. SWAMBO and I restored an old military munitions crate, oiled it up nicely and it will now reside in her office. Seems like all our DIY projects have been for her office o_O

Now back to the kitchen, time to bake some Jam-Tertjies!
That's a beaut , got a yellowood ''wa kis'' from my mom , she won it YEARS ago in a tea competition , got damaged when she moved from the farm , will get to it one day to sand off the lid and re seal it .
 
A late lunch of sorts. With a strong cuppa tea

Toasted, chipped, and chillied up.

"Nazdarovya" like one word does not exist in the Russian language. Closest to that would be "Nazdravlje" in Serbian. If you want, read the link I've posted above.
Otherwise you can watch this (it's short):



@alex1501 You said that ""Nazdarovya" like one word does not exist in the Russian language." Maybe it's not one word - I wrote it incorrectly, but it is still Nazdarovya (irrespective of how we spell it in English) and not what you said that I meant. I speak from personal experience, having lived and worked with Russians for a year and a half. I rest my case.

@ARYANTO A tea competition? What was that all about?

She had to set up the most elegant 11 o'clock tea-party vibe with sarmies , cakes etc- everything complimenting each-other, a like tea for the Queen scenario, tickets were sold for a fundraiser and Mom's table won the prize , inside the kist was a lappieskombers that I still treasure and love to the day. My towels and tablecloths live in there now.

Jawohl Frau @Himml... ich mein @Hooked

O Bože, kakva tvrdoglava žena, gora od nemačke okupacije.
Ja govorim, čitam i pišem pet slavskih jezika, tri na ćirilici a ti pokušavas da me učis zato što misliš da si pila sa nekim rusima.

Just imagine how would some people feel if I start butchering Afrikaans on this forum, or if I start teaching you English. Think about it and then you can rest your whatever you want.
