LEGENDARIUM -> plagiarism

Our oldest has Runhild as her second name. It is an old germanic name: Run stands for secrets and wisdom as in runes. Hilda means a female fighter and guard. Our family names book which we read when choosing names for her said Runhild is 'she who protects her family with wisdom'. When a teen our oldest said fighting with mystical strange stuff means that she is a Ninja.

However it is Brunhild and not Runhild in the one and only ring from Wagner. Brünne is old german for a ring mail, so she who fights in a ring mail. Even the name of Tolkiens dwarves are from old sagas,

Not enough male actors who could ride so in the movie women with false beards were the Riders of Rohan. So it was more a Ride of the Valkyries...

While in this movie the Ride of the Valkyries was performed by men, strange world we live.

honey -> door

With global exchange of goods there are now a lot of parasites from all over the world in beehives. As a plan B I have some humblebees for the early in year blossoms of fruit trees.

Humblebees are quite strong and so you can attach a light plastic door atthe entrance of their nest. Humblebees can open it, wax-moths not. Wish there would be such a simple solution for bees too.

tray bake -> field kitchen

Today we have state elections. Our firefighting building is a voting location. We make a Steckrübeneintopf (rutabaga one pot) with the field kitchen to attract more voters and to feed the people who control the voting.

typical autumn recipe

potato diced, yellow/orange rutabaga diced, really fine cut autumn fruits, rubbed horse radish, cured pork, vegs, spices

before serving the cured pork is cut in dices and placed on the plates

curing pork was a way to make it last in a time before cooling. Often people had still some reserves of pured pork when next slaughtering was done

With this recipe it was used up

Robin Hood -> Schinderhannes

Around the Lahn River where I grew up you often find metal plates attached on trees which mark the walking route through the area the german Robin Hood, the Schinderhannes, did his crimes.

Quote

In 1832, Leitch Ritchie wrote the novel Schinderhannes: the Robber of the Rhine based on the life of the outlaw.[3] Guillaume Apollinaire dedicated a poem to him in his collection Alcools (1913). He has been known as the German Robin Hood and his story romanticised by a Carl Zuckmayer play Schinderhannes and several films including The Prince of Rogues (1928) in which he is played by Hans Stüwe.[

Shakespearean English -> Minnesang

Lovesongs performed by knights who travelled from castle to castle. Because they needed the people to understand their songs they started the first attempt for a unified German language.

I had to write a semester work about Vogelweide. Most of his songs remained only in fragments. Only his song about the fourth crusade remained with melody and text.

My wife is an identical twin and they used to make jokes out of it. I got used to throw a bean sack - if catched with the left it was my nowadays wife, if with the right it was her sister. The main use of bean sacks is now for making animal photos.
