Wednesdays Unplugged – Raspberry Custard Kuchen

“The only really valuable thing is intuition.” ~ Albert Einstein

NOTE: I spend my Wednesdays Unplugged from appointments. It’s my day to stay home, enjoy cooking and welcome our kids and grandkids for dinner in the evening. We end our meal with quotes from the Norwegian ‘Quote Cup’ passed on to me from my grandmother. I share a quote and a recipe here each week, along with an update and photos of what has been going on in our lives. I love trying new recipes…and love getting recipes you would like to share!

Duckling eggs hatched on the bank by our creek and they slid into the creek when our grandkids went to check them out… so tiny, they looked like bobbers… it’s spring!
