Description

"Our new apartment is a dream..." (1)

Behind the house is a large garden, the care of which is close to Silvia and Wolfgang Hildesheimer's hearts:

"When I was rubbing dried marjoram into a meat dish (spezzatini alla Christa) this morning, I remembered that I haven't sent you the promised basil yet. That will be made up for tomorrow. This year's harvest was satisfactory, marjoram went straight, sage bad. This autumn we had a double load of manure sprinkled on the beds." (2)
