singing -> good evening, good night

Last song I was singing was Brahms' Wiegenlied (lullaby) to my grandchilds. The three tenors might be well known, but my kids and my grandchildren liked my singing more. Probably because interaction is better than listening to a speaker. I am not that good singer afterall

You’re a polymath my friend… I bet you’re downplaying how good is singer you really are… Now, if only we can find the secret hidden tapes of the performance from one of your family members
🤭😄

Good evening good night  _ > don’t let the bedbugs bite

Gotta be one of the most chilling lines ever I mean, seriously telling that to a kid before he goes to bed?

The lullaby I sung translates as

Good evening, good night,
With roses covered,
With cloves adorned,
Slip under the covers.
Tomorrow morning, if God wills,
you will wake once again.

 

For a child old enough to have own thoughts 'waking up only at the will of god' is not good. It is a lullaby reaching 500 years back and meaning of somg words changed.

 

don’t let the bedbugs bite -> ticks

A restplace of an Autobahn is only 9 kilometres away. People who did vacances south of the alpes together with their dogs havethem run at the place. So parasites new to our state appear their often first.

Several big mirrors to check for ticks after returning from forest, kids learn to whatto look for at the age of Kindergarten. Blue (easier to detect when falling into autumn leaves) kids versions of swiss army knives are bought with ticktools.

I usually skip the related word game, but I guess my "resistence is futile" when you "make it so" much fun to "engage" in.
What did you say? "Shut up WeSLDey"?
Ok ok, I show myself out the airlock now.

[chattius 2,752]

Lindor -> confectionery

 

 

While at rehab I got a lot of pralines. While the Lindors where eaten by the visiting females of my family I reserved the Herrenschokolade for myself. Herrenschokolade translates as chocolade for gentlemen.

Funny how Americans talk about this chocolade:

https://www.blackfives.org/schwarze-herren-schokolade-bitte/

Is it racist?

Schwarze Herren Schokolade = Black Men chocolade

Or is it old non racist tradition?

Schwarze Herrenschokolade = black (lot cacao, no milk) chocolade for gentlemen

 

My pralines were 60% cacao, truffles and either a shot whisky, brandy or irange liquore

 

fresh pizza -> Flammkuchen

A thin cake shot first into baking house oven to test temperature. Hard to get anything fresher than this direct out of the burned down flames.

Our variant: yeast dough, selfmade Handkäse (using bacteria cultures, only 0,3% fat), sliced blood sausage, perhaps a few onion rings

Sirloin steak prepared like a Sauerbraten

 

steak -> Sauerbraten

Nearly not eatible meat tenderized by marinating for up to 3 weeks. Originally atmy region: a working horse with age of 15 would normally end as dog food. But as a Sauerbraten it is a delicatesse.

I make my own fruit wine for the special marinade for boar and deer-

After marinading, before roasting:

pretty cool...last thing i searched before sleeping last night was the word sauterne... high level delicious somekind of sweet stuff they serve at very high class restaurants with desert?

VERY expensive

sauterne -> Trockenbeerenauslese(TBA)

The french just copied the art of doing. And have better ground  ....

If each single bottle has a number (Flasche=bottle no. 52) you know it is something special. 10000€ for a bottle, not bad.

My excuse for not drinking it isn't the price. I have several Porsche and Lamborghini afterall (vintage tractors). It is because zero alcohol politics when working with explosives. Know the story about The Fox and the Grapes ?

zomgod..i cant believe he can say that..he MUST be native...it rolls so well off his tongue, I had to actually watch it a few times to *catch* that he'd actually said the word

I've always been fascinated by Welsh language... its managing to stay alive, and its kind of a mirror of french language here In Quebec.. except Welsh is such a tiny population..  

Also...one of my fave movies ...crash... its main theme, apparently.. Mark Isham had heard a voice singing it in the back of a post office...he investigated... and so the melody came to Crash.. here's  the trailer... with the right heart and perspective... everything wlll have meaning and purpose 

 

right?
