Medievalist specializing in the Nordic Middle Ages, crazy about books, Japan, anime, languages and fermented food.
Still on a fermentation high. Here you can see liquid gold, which will be ready to use in about 4 weeks. Garlic honey. The garlic will be nice and soft and caramelized; use it as regular and honey instead of sugar. And sometimes I like to snack on a clove of garlic. #fermentation #garlic #honey

Finally checked something off my bucket list: the old Berlin city wall from the Middle Ages. There is still a free-standing section from the 13th century on Littenstraße, and remnants of the wall can be found built into houses all around. But not much more than 120 meters seems to have survived.

Here is another koji experiment. Since I still had some koji rice and it was approaching its best-before date, I quickly made some green lentil miso. Now I have to wait six months before I know how it tastes. #koji #lentils #miso

Here is my latest kitchen experiment: I had some spelt koji left , so I simply mixed itwith a little salt and onions. After looking at the photo, I will definitely pack everything even more tightly. Wait for ten days and see how it turns out. #koji #spelt #onions

Origami Pikachu, requested by little Lina. It bears some resemblance to Yoda and, in terms of color, to Winnie the Pooh. The instructions are from #happpuppytruffles (YouTube). #origami #pokemon #pikachu

I finally got to visit the Mori Ōgai Memorial in Berlin, Luisenstraße. Unfortunately, it was closed and the weather was terrible, but I still managed to take a photo. As a big Bungou Stray Dogs fan, he is more than familiar to me. #berlin #moriougai #bungoustraydogs

I needed something to read on my commute, and even though I'm not that far into the Tokyo Revengers story yet, I picked up volume 13 and was excited to see “Ragnarok” mentioned in it. I always enjoy seeing Nordic elements in manga and anime.

Es liegt weiter ein Kompromissangebot der demokratischen Parteien vor. Macht die Zusammenarbeit von Konservativen & Rechtsextremen öffentlich – mit genug Druck können wir sie vielleicht noch stoppen. Schreibt Manfred Weber hier direkt eine E-Mail: greens.eu/dear-manfred
Don't do it, Manfred!
Send him an email now and tell him to not give in to the far right.

Im EU-Parlament droht gerade die Brandmauer zu fallen! Erneut! Die christdemokratische EVP will mit den Rechtsextremen gemeinsam für einen Frontalangriff auf Menschenrechts- und Umweltstandards der EU-Lieferkettenrichtlinie stimmen. Abgestimmt wird morgen. Helft Druck zu machen!

Ordningen med Norgeskunnskap i utlandet har i mange år vært en viktig brobygger mellom Norge og mange andre land. Jeg har selv vært student og deretter underviser ved et lærested som fikk ta del i dette tilbudet. Støtt en god sak slik at ordningen ikke fjernes.

It's the last day of my vacation, and since things are going to get busier at work soon, I'm trying to take it easy today.

Good morning, with whole grain emmer bread, matcha cream cheese, and cucumber slices. Inspired by #matchaunion. Have a great day! #bread #cucumbers #creamcheese

Today I received a letter and, surprisingly, it contained origami instructions for folding a bird. What a joy, because I've been a big fan of origami since elementary school. I folded a slightly different bird and now it sits in my crassula, which I'm currently nurturing. Thank you, #Nabu! #origami

I had been wanting to make carbonara for days, but ended up cooking something else. Today was the day, finally. I went back to one of our favourite recipes. The recipe goes back to Alice Vollenweider and it's simply brilliant. #carbonara #noodles #Vollenweider

Good morning, woke up too early because I'm still not well, but just looked out the window and saw the ISS. What a surprise. But I can't identify the stars and probably also planets that I can see from my bedroom. After all, I'm supposed to be asleep and getting fit. #ISS #constellations #planets

Don’t let the EU tear down nature protection ❌

The European Commission is quietly trying to dismantle the laws that safeguard what we cherish most: our nature.

They think we wouldn’t notice or care. But we do.

Tell them to keep their #HandsOffNature 👉 www.wwf.eu/campaigns/it...

It's International Strange Music Day, and the first thought was Cathy Berberian. I remember hearing her on the radio as a teenager, finding it very strange. Also thought her name was “Barbarian”. Don't know much by her, but like to listen to her every now and then.

Is autumn around the corner? It's definitely cooler and windier, . As of today, I'm better prepared for colder temperatures, as I have two new cozy and eco-friendly blankets. Plus, I could eat soba all the time right now, today with shiitake mushrooms and scallions. #soba #plantbased #scallions

A while back, I saved this recipe and, like so many others recipes, forgot it. Now I stumbled across it again, and since I had everything I needed, I made Egg Drop Soba today according to #happydonabelife. I'm thinking about making it again tomorrow because soba are simply delicious. #eggs #soba

I just started watching Tokyo Revengers because I heard there's a Valhalla arc in it. So far, the series is entertaining; somehow, I've been drawn to series about gangs more often lately. Do you have any more ideas or suggestions?
