Asphaltkörnchen im aufgeschürften Knie, die Trennung von der ersten großen Jugendliebe, die verpatzte Matheklausur. Mama war immer da und hatte eine Umarmung parat. Ja, und vielleicht hat sie auch manchmal genervt. Hat mit dem Staubsauger unter unserer Tür gesaugt, wenn wir nach einer Party mittags noch im Bett lagen und hat ihr Veto eingelegt, als wir mit 14 unbedingt auch rote Strähnchen haben wollten wie Christina Aguilera.

Und doch ist wie jedes Jahr Muttertag der perfekte Anlass um ihr einmal von Herzen Danke zu sagen. Wie könnte man das besser als mit gemeinsamer Quality Time?

Hier kommt unsere Top 3 der Muttertagsaktivitäten in der Lockdown-Edition:

 

1. Ihr erinnert euch an die Filmszene aus „Tatsächlich Liebe“, in der Keira Knightley ein Liebesgeständnis auf kleinen Plakaten bekommt? Ein selbstkomponiertes Ständchen zum Muttertag unter dem Fenster oder vor der Haustür wird Mamas Herz sicherlich strahlen lassen.

 

2. Die Familie hat sich seit der Pandemie noch seltener gesehen als ohnehin schon? Trommelt die Geschwister zusammen und organisiert ein Online-Dinner. Egal, ob das Dinner gemeinsam vor der Linse gekocht wird oder direkt verzehrbereit vor die Tür geliefert wird. Gegessen wird gemeinsam via Zoom-Call.

 

3. Eure Mama gehört nicht zur Risikogruppe, ist bereits geimpft oder ihr habt ohnehin regelmäßig persönlichen Kontakt? Dann zelebriert diesen Tag mit einer besonderen gemeinsamen Aktivität. Warum nicht mal auch außerhalb der Weihnachtszeit gemeinsam Plätzchen backen? Oder mal (veganes) Sushi selbst rollen? Ein Wanderausflug in der Umgebung inkl. gepacktem Picknickkorb? Oder ein Wellnesstag zuhause mit Gurken auf den Augen und DIY-Kur in den Haaren?

 

Ganz egal wie ihr den Tag auch gestaltet. Eure Mamis freuen sich bestimmt auch so, dass ihr einfach am sie denkt :)

If you want to have a leisurely morning, lunch or evening and the only thing missing is a suitable recipe, this is the right thing for you!
Delicious warm pumpkin porridge with sweet fruits and melting chocolate.


Ingredients:
- 50g oatmeal
- 1 tsp psyllium husks
- 400ml water or vegetable milk
- 125g pumpkin puree
- Sweeteners of your choice


Preparation:
The preparation could hardly be easier! Simply mix all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Then simmer on medium heat until the desired consistency is achieved.
But be careful: have your wooden spoon ready and stir the pumpkin porridge in the pot occasionally before it burns to the bottom.

Then portion the finished porridge in a bowl and garnish with delicious fruits and a few pieces of our raccoon chocolate. As in the great photo by @avegans_journey, we recommend fresh apple pieces, figs and the delicious almond chocolate.


Good Appetite! ♥

At Christmas time, the desire for delicious biscuits or gingerbread is simply huge! Therefore, here is a simple vegan recipe for spicy gingerbread men. We can reveal one thing in advance: Your home will smell wonderfully like Christmas!

We are starting a small heart project over the St. Nicholas weekend. For every chocolate you buy, you donate a school meal to children in need in Tanzania, Rwanda and Kenya.

Everyone is talking about coconut blossom sugar. But what is behind it and is it really healthier than industrial sugar?

If you are looking for a change for your breakfast or dinner, but you do not feel like standing in the kitchen for long or have special cooking skills, this recipe is just right for you.̈r dich.

Everyone knows this magical macronutrient called protein. Proteins, also known as proteins, are essential for life and participate in a large number of important processes in the body. It's not just bodybuilders who need protein. Our muscles, skin, hair, heart, and brain are largely made up of protein. Nine out of a total of 20 of the so-called amino acid building blocks of proteins cannot be produced by the body itself and depends on us supplying them with our food. It is all the more important that we consume enough protein.s nehmen.

Plastic - Suddenly Problematich

The media are increasingly reporting on a problem that was previously barely perceived as one. We're talking about plastic. Banning plastic straws, paper bag fees, recycling, upcycling, unpackaged stores and cleaning the oceans of plastic are just a few topics that are now openly discussed at least once a week. So it seems to have become important. And it will be with us for a long time, because plastic takes an average of 300 years to decompose.setzen.

 

That's what science says

A look at the numbers also lets experts sound the alarm bells. In the last 70 years alone, over 8.3 billion tons of plastic have been produced. This number is so gigantic that you can hardly imagine how much it is. We try this: this huge amount of plastic is equivalent to the weight of 80 million blue whales. So imagine every single inhabitant in Germany as a great blue whale. So much plastic has been produced since 1950. And not only that. If plastic production progresses at this rate, we will have 3 times more plastic in the sea than fish in 30 years.he.

 

But there is hope. Namely you!!

More and more consumers find this just as worrying and want to contribute something to the solution of the problem with their consumption behavior. And with just a few little things, you too can contribute a lot to reducing plastic. Here are 10 simple tips that you can immediately implement in your everyday life and with which you can become a superhero for the environment.st.

 

10 simple everyday tips

Use reusable fruit and vegetable nets and choose loose, unpackaged food. Think of the cloth bag for shopping..

Take a trip to the organic farmer, to the weekly market or to an unpackaged shop.

3. Tap water instead of a PET bottle. Good to know: Tap water is usually just as pure and rich in minerals as the water from the plastic bottle. Nice drinking bottles made of glass or stainless steel also make drinking a lot easier.r.

4. Use solid hair and body soap instead of shower gel and liquid shampoo.en.

5. Do It Yourself in the bathroom: peeling from semolina, cotton pads made from scraps of fabric, hairspray made from sugar water. Examine your bathroom cabinet and think about what you could make yourself instead of buying it packaged. Take advantage of the bad weather for a few DIY projects.ekte.

6. Also from the bathroom: try a wooden toothbrush!n!

7. Do It Yourself in the kitchen: Here, too, you may be able to do a few things yourself. You won't find homemade oat milk sweetened with dates and a pinch of cinnamon in any store.aden.

8. Menstrual cups, refillable bamboo dental floss, washable panty liners, safety razors. Long since mainstream and not just for hardcore cocos̈kos.

9. Second hand. Yep, clothing can also be plastic. Cotton is a good alternative. Even better: visit the Trodelmarkt or an exchange market and give the already existing pieces a second life.ken.

10. Demand plastic-free products. Young startups as well as established companies and corporations are increasingly bringing products onto the market that are packaged in renewable and compostable raw materials. With the purchase of these products you show that there is a demand for plastic-free alternatives and demand change in the respective industry.e.

 

That's what raccoon does

You may even be doing one or the other. And we also do our part with raccoon. The film, which looks like a normal plastic film, is a modern bio-film made of wood fibers that dissolves completely both on the compost heap and in sea water.t.

If you would like to do even more, then you can share this article with the world or arrange to meet friends for a plastic contest by collecting every plastic packaging for a week and settling it at the end. Of course, the winner here is whoever has bought the least and not the most plastic. I wish you success!lg!
