Richard von Weizsäcker zum Besitz der Wahrheit

Keiner darf für sich den Besitz der Wahrheit beanspruchen, sonst wäre er unfähig zum Kompromiß und über­haupt zum Zusammenleben; er würde kein Mitbürger, sondern ein Tyrann. Wer das Mehrheitsprinzip auflösen und durch die Herr­schaft der absoluten Wahrheit ersetzen will, der löst die freiheitliche Demokratie auf.

Aus der Antrittsrede von Richard von Weizsäcker bei seiner Vereidigung im Deutschen Bundestag in Bonn, 1. Juli 1984

Calendula: basic notions - Calendula: Basisinfo

1) Text in English
2) Text auf Deutsch

English

Calendula - also called pot marigold, having the scientific name calendula officinalis - and indeed it was the "pot marigold" that intrigued me.

Therefore I went for a research and found out that the young leaves of the calendula plant once were used to cook stews and more, but I could not find any recipes. Therefore I am developing my own recipes and really: it tastes great.

Bread and cake with the bread maker - Brot und Kuchen mit dem Brotbackautomaten - Pane e dolci con la macchina del pane


English - Deutsch - Italiano 

English

Yeah, I got a new kitchen machine. Also this time I thought for a long time whether I should afford this bread baking machine ... my decision depends mostly on saving time and money and "from when does the machine pay off". I chose a German brand "Rommelsbacher Brotbackaut BA 550" and, since everything is closed, I bought it on Ebay. Afterwards I remembered that I could have called the company ... but ok - it was too late. (Normally I do that)

Sourdough Starter from Scratch ... my way :-)

Day 1
Add 1 espresso cup of flour and 1 espresso cup of water in a glass or cup. Stir well with a wooden spoon.
