I rediscovered an old friend from long ago! Stumbled over the remnants of the Pond-in-a-barrel from 7 years ago and set it up again. I like that thing.
Garden Fountain Revisited
Air Conditioner Outside Vent DIY
We had northern german summer lately! 3 days with abundant sun and temps over 26 °C! How incredibly awesome!
Well, there’s reason to fear that that was it for summer and, luckily, we’re back to the normal rainy and 20°C meanwhile (LOL – german media were of course instantly happily scaremongering the usual apocalyptic BS of dry spells and profuse death by the intolerable heat…)
Chicken with Onions in Oyster Sauce
Surprisingly, we’ve got a fairly decent chinese food delivery service here where I live, with tasty food and reasonable pricing. While I deem myself an open minded person when it comes to trying new dishes, I often catch myself ordering from a set variety of meals, just for convenience and because I know exactly what I’ll get when I’m not in the mood for experiments.
Farcydes Top 3 Recipes 2024
It was an eventful year that lies behind us and there was considerably less time to be freed up for cooking and experimenting in the kitchen. Nonetheless, these are the dishes I liked best in 2024, give them a try, enjoy and let me know if they worked out for you.
Easy Roasted Chicken

Home made Scallion Oil
This seems to be a very common condiment in chinese cuisine and, while easy to make, it’s a deliciously aromatic and enriching addition to stir-fries and soups. Here’s how to make it, give it a try:
Homemade Yoghurt
I’m still on the weight-loss-journey (going well, thanks for asking) and always trying to find new foods that comply with my goal and on the other hand don’t taste like utter sh*t. Yoghurt is one of the things I didn’t have on the radar for a long time and that I now re-discovered as a protein-rich snack – and I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t try to make my own, right?
And It’s surprisingly easy, just some kind of copy & paste procedure of propagating “old” yoghurt (i.e. store-bought) to “new”, multiplying it in the process. I’m not an expert (yet), but here’s how I did it and it worked decidedly well. Even my wife liked it.
