Bröd

Backsteine sind nicht nur pizzatauglich, sondern lassen auch Brotteige rakentengleich im Ofen emporschießen, dass das Mehl nur so staubt! Die Adler-Mühle Bahlingen hat zum Beispiel die passenden Mehle (das 812er Weizen hat mir Björn als “working horse” ans Herz gelegt). Am hauseigenen Sauerteig, auch genannt “Url“, wird momentan noch herumexperimentiert, fart my little yeastlings, fart!! B-)

Thanks to Björn and Helene Johansson (not related) fabulously fluffy (inside) and crispy (outside) bread creations succeed!

“Winter” hats by Massimiliano Amicucci

A recent visit to Massimiliano Amicucci’s workshop in Rome left us not just with two fabulous “winter” hats (we assured him that the climates in our respective towns of residence, Munich and Berlin, asked for a warm hat during a period spanning far more than just the astronomic winter duration), but above all also with the finding that he’s not merely an amazing artist but also a really great guy personally! During the christmas and new year’s holidays, we therefore gave them a grand première at no lesser location than Kitkatclub Berlin, where they (and thus we) were VERY well received. Happy New Year and don’t forget your hats, it’s icy cold outside!

With style through the winter.

Office Schlumbergera reloaded

The birth of a child often has unexpected side effects. I don’t mean rings under parental eyes and planetary overpopulation – these are the expected ones. In case of my office sharing colleague it brought about a) her maternal leave (still expected) and b) the move of her Schlumbergera, which had suffered years of neglect, from her desk to mine. Where it was repotted and henceforce watered! Uh, wow, novelty! It started growing new leaves and surprised me recently with six white flowers, three of which have now opened completely! Grande gioia! Lets see if a manage a similar miracle with her orchid 😉
