I also had a piece of cake that had vanilla cake on the bottom, wine-soaked cherries in the middle and whipped cream and cocoa powder on top. Sehr lecker! Very tasty!

The most fun activity this week was taking photos! My parents both love photography and I learned how to take pictures for them. I often photograph my meals, scenery and my friends and I having a good time. I don't write a lot in my free time, so for me taking photos is like keeping a diary.
