Sushi Session at Seewen with Familie Herrli



































My mother-in-law Colette is a gymnastic teacher, one of her student, Mrs. Herrli booked a Sushi Session for herself, her two daughters, son-in-laws and another friend the last Saturday. She lives a bit outside of Basel, in a lovely village called Seewen.

Apparently there is lots of snow up there and Colette is a bit scare to drive in snowy condition, so one of her daughters, Caroline and her husband, Martin came to Basel and picked us up and drove us there. We were very lucky, because it was quite a drive and in a different world, only 15 minutes away from Basel city, it was white everywhere. There was a 10 cm snow on top of house roofs, trees were laden with snow.

It was a gorgeous day, as we ascended more uphill, the more sun we got, the more blue the sky. As we stepped out of the car, it was a winter wonderland! I couldn't believe my eyes, sun, blue sky, white top little houses, just like in a picture book.

Mrs. Herrli's house is beautiful, huge windows with a great view. And she got this lovely spacious wintergarden with a long dining table. I could just imagine the dinners she hosts there. Her kitchen is also perfect for a cooking class.

Everyone were so nice and very enthusiastic learners, Mrs. Herrli came out and said she actually never had sushi before, but thought that would be a nice idea to do with her family before Christmas. We all had so much fun, and they really enjoy the self-made Sushi experience.
All the snapshoots are by Colette. Thank you so much for your assistance! Thank you Mrs. Herrli for hosting this sushi session at your beautiful house!
