Dear friends! I think we continue with the snow theme - especially because some of us haven't seen any snow this Winter! There's no new story this week - OK, maybe there is. I just couldn't resist writing short captions to Anders Björklund's fantastic photos of Herr Wilbär...

Crissi -- isn't that a lovely photo of Knut! He looks so handsome and thoughtful......
Folks, haven't you noticed? We do have a wonderful new thread !!! 
Crissi - the bears have fresh drinking water in their dens. And polar bears are usually not drinking they get all liquids needed from their food.
Ludmila - one cannot throw everything away which has belonged to our lives. I think it is good to keep such things we really like.

Mervi - wenn es nur um Milben gehen würde, wäre das meine geringste Sorge.
Die ganze Anlage ist verdreckt, wie man auch auf vielen Fotos erkennen kann.
Die Mädels sind zu dünn, und Beschäftigungsmaterial sowie Mulch fehlt nach
wie vor. Man sieht ja, was sie mit dem bißchen Schnee für einen Spaß haben.
Es würde nicht vieler Anstrengungen bedürfen, die Lebensbedingungen der
Ladies zu verbessern - Hygiene wäre da der erste Punkt. Mir ist auch
schleierhaft wo sie jetzt trinken, seit das Wasser abgelassen ist???
Aber wir werden es sowieso nicht ändern - das ist das Deprimierende.
Mir tut es immer noch in der Seele weh, dass Knut auf diesem verotteten
Steinhaufen seine letzten Monate verbringen mußte.

Susan - It's nearly midnight but your post made me sooooo hungry. - By the way, a casual dinner with friends in our place means a BYO (Bring Your Own) .D
Dumba - I checked the links and saw that bears in other zoos have problems with their fur, too. However, I still think that Berlin zoo should do something about the water quality. Of course, it would cost but aren't our three girls worth something..... I consider this zoo as my 'home zoo', that's why I take the liberty to be critical.
Once again I wish I was a multimillionaire and could use the money to help our fourlegged friends both in the zoos and in the wilderness... I guess I'm not alone with that wish!

I like Italian cooking. I go in bed before I begin to cook

Of your links I find this the best

I cannot say that I see the flowers under Katjuscha's face

Christine - I am here for a drink, too! Cheers and many paw waves!
Ralph - let us welcome your little newcomer
Dumba - that's what I meant. Thanks for searching.
Ludmila - ha ha ha, you also love your old car, which I can fully understand
Bärgit - we are living in a fastliving world. Most find themselves in a throw it away society, unfortunately !
Mervi - You are still here, I hope you relax here and not doing editing all the time
Susan - Do you here my stomach calling for this delicious food??????????

Is anyone hungry?? Below are the descriptions for some of the cooking classes for which I signed up... yum!
Italian Vegetarian Cooking:
For centuries, Italian cooking has been closely associated with a vegetarian diet. Since meat is a luxury in southern Italy, cooking there has evolved without it and naturally lends itself to a vegetarian diet. The many varied influences on Italian cooking only add up to one thing: a simple, healthy cuisine based on natural ingredients and fresh produce. In this class we will explore the diverse meatless culinary specialties from a few of Italy?s regions. Crespelle Fiorentine (crepes filled with ricotta and spinach topped with a white sauce and baked) Butternut Squash and Leek Lasagna, Ricotta Manicotti with Spinach and Asparagus, Polenta and Wild Mushroom Sauce, and Eggplant, Bell Peppers and Mushroom over Pasta or Polenta.
Casual Dinner for Friends on a Winter's Night:
It?s a cold night and the aromas of a delicious dish braising in the oven fills the house with tantalizing aromas. What will you do? Invite a few friends in, pour a glass of wine and relax before dinner. What?s cooking? A Laurel Run favorite: Braised Short Rib Ragu over homemade Rosemary Pasta with Horseradish Cream Sauce. Learn to use the tougher but more flavorful cut of meat and braise it to buttery perfection for this richly-flavored meat sauce. Chef will make also make Roasted Red Pepper Bisque, Winter Greens Salad with a Balsamic Vinaigrette, and Chocolate Mousse Shooters for dessert. Class filled with valuable cooking techniques for all levels. You are welcome to bring wine.
The Cuisine of Puglia, Italy
The cuisine of Puglia comes from the land and sea, coming together in simple dishes of humble origins that stem from traditions thousands of years old. In this class we will feature some of the simple fare from my family?s region. Menu: Gamberio Scampi, just right for a light meal or a great antipasti, Matagliati with Cardoncelli Mushrooms (homemade pasta with mushrooms); Chick Pea Pasta with an Aubergine (eggplant) Caponata, Cheese and Mint; Pancotto, a type of soup with bread made by the local cooks, popular in winter with cabbage. A simple dessert, Pears in Primativo Wine delivers a delicious contrast between the sweetness of a pear in wine with salty cheese. Leave Ohio behind and ?travel by food? tonight! You are welcome to bring wine.
I've also signed up for a "dinner in one pan" class with one of my friends (she's coming with me to the "Cuisine of Puglia" class as well), and a class on how to cook seafood. My cousin is going to join me for the "Casual Dinner for Friends" class; he's been saying for awhile that he'd like to go sometime, and finally signed up. Can you tell I'm excited??
Fax I was waiting for just arrived... I'll take my Hercules to go, please!

Du hast recht
Mervi
We have an old Peugeout. As katharina was at school, we had two cars. Now Alex drives Peugeout. In December it was supposed to go to TÜV. We did not want to pay much money for repairing. At the end we paid because we love the old car
Caren
I hope it is possible to fix your camera. Our car has no stand heating. Each winter I think how nice it would be to get in the warm car in the morning.
Bärgit
I cannot understand why it is possible in zoo Berlin to have the standing water without filtration.
I think Sydney will apply for the job at RB.
Sarsam
All books are there.
Our Charles trained us to feed him first, before we begin to prepair our food. He had very strong voice and schouted without a break
Knuti-judi
How was your day? Do you want something warm to drink?

Crissi - Bin kurz vorm Abschalten nochmals da.
Ich teile deine Sichtweise voll und ganz.
Dass die Wasserqualität so überhaupt durchgeht bei den Behörden, ist mir ein Rätsel.
Was hab ich im Frühsommer gebangt, dass man Felix wieder zum Wanderbären macht und ihn zu den GGs schicken könnte.
Dumba - Du hast sicher recht, man sieht nur den Splitter im Auge des anderen.
Aber es geht um Wasser, Futter, Hygiene.
Caren - Mit deinem Fotoapparat sind dir wahre Meisterwerke gelungen. Vielleicht halten die Geräte einfach nicht mehr Profitum aus. Schade ist es sehr, dass Qualitätsprodukte oft auch nicht langlebiger sind....

Dumba - es geht nicht um die Milben.
Es geht um die vollgekotete Anlage,
die seit Oktober nicht mehr gesäubert wurde,
da waren die Damen das letzte Mal auf der kleinen Anlage.
Das Wasser wird nur zweimal im Jahr gewechselt - das geht doch nicht.
Parasiten gibt es immer mal - dagegen kann man etwas unternehmen.
Aber die Grundhygiene im Berliner Zoo stimmt nicht - das ist das Problem.
Das werden dir alle Fotografinnen, die regelmäßig am Gehege sind, bestätigen.

We all do just see what we want to see once in a while, don?t you think!?
Manchmal sehen wir alle eben nur das, was wir sehen wollen, nicht wahr!?
e.g.: What looks so very nice to us (rolling of the bears on their back!)
just might be the attempt to get rid of parasites such as mites!
z.B. Das Rollen der Bären auf dem Rücken, das fuer uns so niedlich aussieht,
koennte auch nur der Versuch sein, Parasiten loszuwerden!
GOOD NIGHT lovelies - have nice dreams and a warm and cosy cover to protect you from the Sibirian cold . . .!

a little white teddy in red tartan came wiz me today from the marsket!
Mervi - Oh, I can share these feelings.
Please keep paws crossed that I get the camera back soon, without I feel so lonely. It will be on the way for repair tomorrow.
Crissi - ich weiß nicht, was ich dazu sagen soll.

Teddybärenmutti - I hope the teddy choir is singing a beautiful lullaby for you.
Red Baron - I'm sure you've already received lots of applications! Unfortunately I'm too lazy and hate house work - and I'm not especially fluffy either....
Caren - I understand how you feel about your camera. I remember our first car. It was a Peugeot and we really loved that car. When we had to buy a new car I told the salesman to find a good home for our old car. He must have thought I was on the run from that place where the men in white coats take care of you
