146 Pancake procrastination
Whenever my brain needed a break from studying, the kitchen was in full swing. Pancakes, sourdough pizza wheels, and syrup for drinks were made while avoiding exam prep. I’ll show you all that while talking about good sources for ingredients and ranting about supermarket organic. Below are some image impressions from the video. If you…

145 The final Youtube video
I am leaving Youtube. I won’t quit making videos but I won’t be uploading them to Youtube anymore. When I started making this video, I was pulling out before Youtube pushed past my comfort zone with their policies. By now, the line has been crossed. If you want to continue watching my videos, to continue…

144 A rare retreat
The garden is now an hour’s drive away. It’s a rare refuge. I lucked out that my appointments in the area aligned with a rare beautiful winter day. A day in the garden, away from all the politics and injustice out there, it’s rare but it’s everything. So, today, I won’t rant about the world…

140B I can’t just talk about carrots
I struggled a lot to finish what set out to be a fluffy video about harvesting carrots and planting garlic, so I created the episode that felt more fitting in addition. If you need a break from politics and the dire state of the world, watch the fluffy version instead. Note: there are subtitles on…

140A Fluffy harvesting and planting
If you need a break from politics, here’s a fluffy video where I plant garlic, harvest carrots, the sun shines, and a dog gets a treat. I struggled a lot to make this video, so there is a non-fluffy version in addition with some real-talk about the current situation. This is not it. This one…

139 Bad-weather garden tour
A garden tour in bad weather with everything you missed because I lost three weeks worth of footage. I’ll show you the new beds I made, how I’ve turned everything over for winter, and give you an update on what’s still growing in November in North-East Germany. A garden tour doesn’t lend itself well to…
