here you may have a look together with us, as we entered a pottery-exhibition of one of ipue's first pottery buddies, when entered the classes of IR heritage organzation in 1998...... it was so nice! she's able to throw sooooo airy.... but I missed a bit the beautiful turquoise glaze normally seen on pottery of azerbaijan...
she was happy to see ipue in her exposition!! and she gave her a gift!! (mom, we were jalous!!!!!)

well, mom, we didn't went home not yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and here you may see not me but Possy & Crossy.... :-(((( we entered a new scarf-shop in a modern neughbourhood, and as it is only 2 weeks before the IR new year, they were soooo busy and we weren't able to take pics that much.. and also because I'm so large.... and cannot be hidden like P&C or zizzi for instance... :-(((
but the shop was worth to see.. it belongs to a nephew of ipue's hubby, and he was working there hard together with his wife and two other ladies... the IR women are mad for beautiful scarfs, specially for norouz, the beginning of spring!!!!!!!!!
mom, believe it, they show us a scarf with a price of 15.000.000 rials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who is mad enough to spend so much money for a scarf?????? ipuenktchen had chosen a beautiful black and white one for 280.000 and she got a bit ashamed for the price... never spent so much money for a scarf before, but it was really beautiful and worth to get it!!!!!!!
btw ipue's hubby got the scarf for her as an *EIDI*, means a gift vor new year!!! mom, do you think we'll get eidi here, too??????????? I heard about that the kids will get pocket money from the elder ppl for new year holidays!!!?!?! so I could get rich, mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll keep my fingers crossed!!!
from there we went home! :-)))) miss you, mom, kiss you, mom!!!

helloooooooooooo, mom!!!!
today ipue proposed a shopping tour and so we did!!!!
boah... what a crowd, mom, believe it.. like in DE in the last days before X-mas!!!!!?!?! but nevertheless we did our tour and here and there we saw interesting things - for instance the protestant church, in it's yard had been the elementary school of son1 of ipue!!! in front of the church yard is now a new street with an entrance at both sides for an underground multi-storey car park!!! when you come like ipue & her hubby not that often downtown you can find every time such *new things*!!! ;-)
next while looking for a dyeing mill we saw the ark, the ancient citadel, one of the oldest places of tabriz from 1.000 years ago, from backside.
in the meantime we got hungry and specially we TVs started to moan....... so we entered *Pizza2000* and each of us had a yummy food!! spaghetti with goulash and pizza with tongue and cheese!!
next we went to a famous nutshop and bought our nuts for the new year's visitors, the same some pastry..... ipue choose always a kind of pastry which is easy to keep for longer time, a wafer with a yummy peanut creme!
we asked some books from bookshops, but didn't found what we were looking for... and before jumping in the bus we passed by an antik shop which had islamic rosaries used like a curtain!!! beautifull!!!
mom, we got sooooooooooooooooo tired, you cannot imagine, arrived home and slept immediately!!!
miss you, kiss you, dear mom!!!!

hey, dear mom!!!!
puuuuh... nice sunshine, mom, but a strong spring storm!!! and I understand, it was so difficult for our host-mom nobody got lost... specially Possy & Crossy both together with a weight of only 25 g could be taken with by the wind....................
but all's well that ends well. and we arrived back home safely!!!!!!!!!!!!
first yo can see me on the Union Bridge, going downtown.
everywhere ppls and shopkeepers busy for new year, and as ppl need a nice flower for their HAFTSIN (pls have a look for at a link in our last posting!!) we found beautiful hyacinths and tulips...
this time we found a path to see the ancient citadel from nearby, they are still working there and the wall around was destroyed in the meantime! to was after nearly 30 years ago for the first time ppl could see it from nearby again!
also very old houses from about 100 or 200 years ago beside the mainstreet could be seen from their more beautiful backside!!
from there we went by taxi to the new built mansour cross rd with its silk road tower and the carpet mosaic downstairs in the yard!! boah, mom, such a large and beautiful mosaic!!!!
and from there we took the bus straight home and everybody got really tired!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish you could be here, dear mom!! miss you & kiss you, mom!!

hey, dear mom!!
today I was waiting for one of the highlights of my stay in IR!!!!!
today at about 8.30 PM 1392 was turning into 1393!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
here you can see me at the *haftsin-table* at ipue's!!!!!! every family is preparing such a table and sit around in the moment when the year is changing! there has to be 7 things with the character *ssin* as there are for instance *ssib* (apple), *ssabzeh* (sprouts getting green), ssir (garlic), ssekkeh (coins), sserkeh (vinagar), ssangak (a traditional bread), ssamano (a special pudding).. and also candle, mirror, the holy qor'an, flower, goldfish, nuts, sweets, new banknotes and so on, and so on.........
and here you can see us on the haftsin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the whole haftsin you can see here: http://ipuenktchenworld.blogger.de/stories/2386149/
and it's a custom that the elder ppl are giving an *eidi* (means a gift for eide norouz) to the younger ppl, and so we got all new bank notes hot off the press! this should happen our purse should never be empty... :-))

heyyyyyyy, dear moooooooom!!!!!!!!!
1.1.1393
ipue told me lots of ppl here are spending their new year holidays by *did-o-bazdid*, visit and return visit........... but nowadays many ppl are going for holidays to escape from all this visites, but in ipue's first nearly 15 - 20 years going for holidays was unusual and the visites was the greatest thing of new year holidays.......... but it's not so bad to go to see ppl which you never couldn't see normally.. perhaps only on mourning ceremonies..... but everything is changing, and since there are the cellphones so common, it's a part of new year holidays to call who ever you could find........... or send a funny sms..
ipue don't do this that much, but if they are doing visites, they like to spend time there, and so we did today at 2 places and saw other haftsins!!!!!!!!
wish you were here!!! miss you, mom - kiss you, mom!!!!!!!
