Sunday Breakfast

I was up all night after going to bed around midnight and not being able to fall asleep. A little after 2 am I was (again) sitting in the dark kitchen and livingroom, reading until the sun went up.
Sunrise was at 6:46 am, and as soon as I could see something without artificial light, I prepared myself a breakfast of two Walnussbrötchen (walnut bread rolls) and homemade Ladwerge (plum jam without sugar or sweeteners, plain plums and spices: cinnamon, cloves, ginger ). I made the Ladwerge yesterday and couldn't wait to try it after it finally cooled off. Came out just how I like it.

If you have been reading until here I want to share something idiotic with you. I went for the 3rd test ride with my new ebike this morning. I made a shifting mistake going uphill, lost balance and fell on the side of the path. Two women behind me lifted the bicycle from me and helped me up. Scratches from thorns and bruises only, unfortunately most of them on the right leg and knee again. Only minor scratches and no harm to the bicycle (it landed softly on me).
I have learned my lesson today and can't tell you how lucky I consider myself this evening. I wasn't wearing a helmet. I feel like the universe is giving me another chance and I am very (very) grateful.
