gourmet => cheese board

[chattius 2,526]

cheeseboard -> Handkäse

The district I was born and live is Handkäse area. Most of the Handkäse in Germany is produced there. Normally not served on a plate because it is usually marinated or in a salade.

Hüttenberg is a neighbour village of Wetzlar.

Well, our selfmade Handkäse has 0.5% fat, 30% nutrein, 0% carbohydrats, but 100% smell if over-ripe

 

mini-babybel -> Blauer Brief / blue letter

Aged then 11 our oldest got a blue letter from school to give it to her parents. A blue letter is normally an invitation to visit the school because a child was for example misbehaving badly, terrible marks... . In this case the teacher was told a liar by our daughter. She was a sort of tree-hugger and said that she would eat cheese and drink mild but never something an animal has to die for. Also she was against gene-manipulated food. This was when our oldest told her to be a liar. To make cheese you need rennet. Either from the stomach of calves or gene-manipulated artificial one.

Our handcheese is riped by certain bacteria, hence the low fat, high protein, 0 carbohydrates.

purloined letter -> Polytechnic (applied sciences)

We were moving alot when I was a child. So I had the strange latin, french, politechnic combination at school for the 3 free choosable classes. Somehow I were never at the time at a school when english for starters classes were offered. I learned to speak english when we lived close to an US garnison and I played with american kids. Poe would have been when 16 and after 6 years English (younger sis had to read it). But, heh, polytechnic... water rockets, vulcanoes, repairing car engines, building an own stirling engine.,, so cool.

polymath -> Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 

After some stupidities in his hometown Frankfurt Goethe was sent to an aunt at Wetzlar to be an apprentice at the highest german court. My mom's house is just 120 metres from it.

From Faust to the sorcerers apprentice, colour theory, travel stories, botanics, ... And the Erlkönig, think every child in Germany had to learn the poem. Rammstein made a nice parody turning the ride through a dark forest into flying with a plane at a thuderstorm.

Mozart -> Mozartkugel

Quote

A Mozartkugel (German: [ˈmoːtsaʁtˌkuːɡl̩] (listen); English: "Mozart ball"; pl. Mozartkugeln) is a small, round sugar confection made of pistachio, marzipan, and nougat that is covered with dark chocolate. It was originally known as Mozart-Bonbon, created in 1890 by Salzburg confectioner Paul Fürst (1856–1941) and named after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Handmade Original Salzburger Mozartkugeln are manufactured by Fürst's descendants up to today, while similar products have been developed by numerous confectioners, often industrially produced.

Kugelblitz -> TV

Kugelblitz translates as ball lightning. When I was 7 a lightning hit the road 200 metres away and a ball lightning was rolling/moving along the road. Nearly every TV and radio destroyed but no bodily harm to anyone. Nowaday the theory is that a lightning hit the wet basalt stone road and a plasma ball was created in the sand layer below the stones.

recording studio -> MIDI

First met MIDI when my younger brother used MIDI on his Apple II GS. He was member of a school punk band. Tuba's found the way to MIDI only played on synthesizers.

Our third visits an Art and Music highschool and her room in our house is full of electronics. As a single instrument she prefers an Electronic Zither. She has to do a project composing/adapting something into an 8 instrument version using MIDI, luckily the new e-zithers are MIDI compatible.

Der Zauberlehrling / The Sorcerer's apprentice by Goethe

 

This is the part when the apprentice orders the broom to bring water

...

            Walle! walle

            Manche Strecke,

            Daß, zum Zwecke,

            Wasser fließe

            Und mit reichem, vollem Schwalle

            Zu dem Bade sich ergieße.
