Greenpeace en pleine décroissance : quand le vert passe dans le rouge
L’écologie, ce n’est pas que ces grands programmes sur les énergies renouvelables ou l’électrification automobile, c’est aussi les gestes du quotidien. Et chez Greenpeace, dans ces gestes, il y a bien sûr le tri sélectif qui commence, bien sûr, par celui des salariés. Après tout, chacun doit s’y mettre et Greenpeace a bien compris qu’elle […] ⌘ Read more

@kiwu@twtxt.net Sorry, I have two functional brain cells left in my brain, and I’m not sure if you’re asking What am I putting in it, as in a) when making some? Or as in b) when consuming/serving it?

a) 1L milk (0.5L cold + 0.5L warm @ ~45 °C), a bit of store bought yogourt for the bacteria, sugar and vanilla extract.
b) Most of the time, as is. But I’ve tried once: adding in a couple of diced strawberries that have been sitting in granulated sugar for a couple of minutes, until they’d released enough syrup, and I think I might’ve caught a new addiction on top of the original one.

With the wind, my fingers were frozen. I should have worn gloves. Without them, I could only put my hands in the pockets of my jacket. That didn’t help much, though, because I frequently stopped to take yet another photo, so they cooled off again right away. :-D
