It’s been a mostly cold, wet spring here. Fortunately, our balconies are well-protected so Rosebud and I could still go outside and blow bubbles in the rain. When you have a toddler, it’s nice to have an outdoors activity you can do when it’s raining, as it was on this day.

Bubbles are delightful!
I thought I would share this delicious and fairly easy German recipe from my friend Mia.
Rouladen (German meat rolls)
Pound flat the beef you will be using. Season the underside of the meat with salt, pepper and paprika. Spread the inside of the meat with mustard (either sweet or yellow). Add some minced onion and a gherkin pickle (you can use cornichons or any other pickle you like). Roll the Rouladen, tie together with a string, and then brown in a pot (such as a Dutch oven). When the meat is browned, add enough liquid to cover (water, beef broth, maybe a splash of wine). Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to a simmer. Braise for two to three hours, until tender and delicious. Serve with potatoes or Spätzle.
