We also have two different salads and baked potatoes.

My granddad used to hang several fishing lines with earthworms on the hook in the Wethau (the name of the stream that flows through Wethau) early in the morning and then checked on them several hours later and caught his trout that way. But that was still in the GDR. If someone did that today and was caught, the fine would certainly be extremely expensive.

That sounds good and tasty. I really like smoked fish and when you make it yourself, you know what's on your plate.

I remember that too, it's a fond memory of my grandfather. As a little girl, I was always allowed to go with him in the morning to check the lines. However, they were always laid out overnight for eels. A wonderful memory. There are still many active anglers in our family, something that has been passed on. The memory brings a smile to my face and a little tear to my eye at the same time.

I know this phenomenon, you are a bit older and from my point of view you have arrived in life and are more stable.

Sometimes I ask myself what stops us from doing something that we used to enjoy doing.
Is it really always just the time, or is it also partly convenience in a world that is spinning ever faster?
I'm sure you know that priorities are always shifting, depending on the stage of life and the situation.
In your case in particular, I can well imagine that you would still do this today because you also have a conscious approach to food and its origins and also like nature.
Sometimes you have to "force" yourself to make time.
We kept some for today and tomorrow, the rest was then distributed among family and friends.
