Heiderose an incredible friend

If we're visiting Nova Scotia we go to Annapolis Royal even if it's
just for 15, or 20 minutes before we get gas for the long journey back
to our school house between Wallace and Pugwash. We love our friends
at the German bakery, and loved meeting Heiderose and Dieter, who are the chefs
and bakers, and their daughter Susanne who frequently runs the restaurant. 

Heidi is also an amazing artist.  If we have time when we're in the area
we love to drop in for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or to pick up some 
pastries. Yum. If you visit Annapolis Royal give yourself a treat.
Go and see Heiderose's art, and eat their delicious food. 

This beautiful painting caught my eye, and Heiderose has graciously
agreed to let me show it to you. In fact she shared some poignant 
stories about her life in East Berlin growing up, and how hard it
was being accepted in Canada, and let me buy the painting.
It's beautiful

Thank you Heiderose for wonderful conversations, for your
incredible bravery, for lots of laughter, your amazing art, and
delicious food. 

Have a loving your life day.
