We just got home today after making our way through horrible Austrian and Bavarian slow moving traffic. I was quite excited about returning home this time. This was mostly because I knew the batch of baby snakes that hatched around the time I left was waiting for me. I usually feed the babies for theContinue reading “Hungry mouths”

Slowly making our way home
After almost three weeks of living in our campervan it’s about time to return to home. However, why make it a twelve hour drive if you can split it up over a couple of days and spend some time in beautiful places along the way? This morning we drove towards Austria, Carinthia to be precise.Continue reading “Slowly making our way home”
Getting above the trees…
We’re currently in the town of Podbela, Slovenia in the Nadiza river valley. I have to say it’s extremely pretty and all, but of course that’s not the only reason we’re here. (It may be the only reason for the rest of the family though.) You don’t even have to guess. Of course the otherContinue reading “Getting above the trees…”
Beating odds
I beat the odds of still being positive after 10/11 days of covid, but somehow my entire family seems to be very good at that. We beat those odds four times… But that’s not really what this post is about. Too tired to write about covid shit. Where I did beat odds that do matter,Continue reading “Beating odds”
There’s no way I could have resisted this
Regular readers will know this. I love plants and I love snakes, and I love their appearance even more when you put white spots on them. There’s just something about variegation that makes every color pop more. I think it’s amazing. About a year ago I bought my first variegated Monstera deliciosa. A second followedContinue reading “There’s no way I could have resisted this”
Chinese beauties
Yeah, yeah. Of course this Thursday post is about snakes. And no! This post’s title is not clickbait. Well, and even if it made you click because you expected something else – I disagree. You’re the one in the wrong. Not me. This title is spot-on. I just want to keep it short today andContinue reading “Chinese beauties”
More omelette – I’m sorry
This week and the next I’m not at home. I’m working remotely as we have two weddings in the Netherlands in a rather short time. My chef thankfully had no issues with me working remotely for a couple of days, with which he made my life a lot easier, and me more relaxed for theContinue reading “More omelette – I’m sorry”
A nice small omelette
I talked a lot about this week about how it was busy and all, but it was also pretty awesome. Not only did I pretty much finish every important item on my to-do list for this week, the past few days were also filled with excitement of a kind I haven’t felt in years. GivenContinue reading “A nice small omelette”
Speckled
Not much to talk about this evening. The kids fell asleep too easily, so I guess I didn’t have much time to write. Instead, I fed some hungry snake mouths, and with about thirty slithering around, it takes some time. Snakes are funny. After they reach the age of one year, they suddenly turn totallyContinue reading “Speckled”
That escalated quickly
I gave up cornsnake breeding in 2008, after two rough breeding seasons that yielded pretty nice offspring, but also created circumstances that left me no choice but to end it there. My snake breeding hobby was always somewhat self-sustained. I bred a small number of offspring, of which I kept only a select few. TheContinue reading “That escalated quickly”
