Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread I’m sorry. I know it’s Monday morning and you probably came here for some pretty pictures of food that you could glance at, and then move on with your day… and here I go thrusting warm, soft cinnamon sugar bread in your face. It’s not fair. I know it’s not fair. I know that now you’re craving cinnamon rolls, and cream cheese frosting and chili fries and hot dogs. You don’t deserve this sort of torture. This bread hits all the comfort spots in my soul. I’m sorry and you’re welcome and I love you. Let’s start at the beginning. I did this all without the use of a stand mixer and dough hook. This dough can be made and left to rise , then refrigerated overnight for use in the morning. This is the dough just before it’s left to rise. After the dough has rested and risen for an hour, I knead it in a few tablespoons of flour. This is the part in the bread process where you can wrap the dough and place it in the fridge to rest overnight. I worked with my dough right away. I can’t even deal.

London's Unpackaged Grocery Shop: No Packaging Whatsoever - Food I can't fathom a better way to reduce waste created by plastic bags and other packaging than by eschewing the stuff altogether, which is precisely what London's Unpackaged grocery shop does. WeHeart has more: Beginning life as a market stall in 2006, Unpackaged is a unique and brilliant concept that is so simple it hurts, especially considering the sheer amount of packaging waste that is ridiculously filling our planet's landfill sites. Within the beautifully designed shop, organic whole foods, dried fruit, nuts and seeds, herbs and spices, even refillable oils, vinegars and wines are all available to place straight into your own containers, that you will have brought along with you … if you haven't then reusable bags are available. So simple it hurts.

24 heures dans la planète conso La richesse mondiale a fortement progressé depuis 1990 quand 193 États et 23 Organisations internationales s’étaient engagées à diviser le taux d’extrême pauvreté par deux à l’horizon 2015. Objectif atteint, mais l’une des manifestations les plus éclatantes de la hausse générale du niveau de vie et de la mondialisation des échanges est la croissance spectaculaire de la consommation. Savez-vous combien de litres de vin ou de tonnes de viande sont consommés sur Terre chaque année? Depuis 1990, le nombre de personnes vivant dans l’extrême pauvreté, c’est-à-dire avec moins de 1,25 dollar par jour, est passé de 1,9 à 1,3 milliard en 20 ans, tandis que la population mondiale croissait de 5,3 à 6,9 milliards. Aujourd’hui, en 2016, pour une population mondiale estimée à 7,3 milliards, ce sont 836 millions de personnes qui vivent encore dans un état d’extrême pauvreté. Connaissez-vous le Planetoscope ? Une population qui augmente et moins de terres cultivables Le boom de la consommation

An ironic and brilliant project by Jared Wunsch and Hans Johnson. Comments comments Switzerland Switzerland In June 2011, we spent a week in Switzerland, flying into Geneva, with an initial stop in Montreux, followed by a picturesque stay in Wengen, located above the Lauterbrunnen valley. The alps provided a stunning backdrop to explore the area. During our stay in Wengen, a small village that is accessible by train or foot, the main sound heard was cow bells.

The Revolution and Evolution of the French Breakfast Following the popularization of coffee and cocoa, an early-morning déjeuner à la tasse (“breakfast in a cup”) came into fashion, at least among members of the upper crust. While drinking chocolate was first brought to the French court in the middle of the 17th century thanks to Anne of Austria, daughter of the Spanish King Philip III, it wasn’t until the death of her husband, King Louis XIII, and the queen’s subsequent regency that the beverage became popular among members of the court and, later, the bourgeoisie. Once Parisians adopted this fashion of a morning hot beverage—coffee or chocolate for the rich, milk for the poor—their larger “breakfast” was pushed later and later. By 1870, writes Anne Martin-Fugier in Les repas dans l’horaire quotidien des ménages bourgeois à Paris au XIXe siècle (Meals in the daily timetable of bourgeois households in 19th century Paris), the Parisian bourgeoisie had begun using the word “breakfast”—déjeuner—to refer, instead, to the midday meal.

The Top 5 Astronomical Events to Witness Before You Die | Fun Lists - Top 10 Lists In the age of internet, television, and Lady Gaga, it’s easy to ignore the dazzling displays the sky gives us every night.

How much was a loaf of Brad in 1975 To find the answer, we must first quantify the value of Brad. So how much is a human life worth? According to research by Stanford economists, a year of human life is worth about $129,000. Wolfram Alpha tells us that the average age of a person named Brad is 35 years, and that the average life expectancy for a human male (worldwide) is about 69 years. Assuming that procuring a loaf of Brad involves cutting down a Brad in his prime, we would be depriving him of 34 years of life - a value of $4,386,000. Next we must decide if a "loaf" is a unit of volume, or a unit of weight. Since the average weight of a human male is 166 pounds (according to Wolfram Alpha), we can assume that Brad should sell for about $26,421 per pound - which, using our previous loaf weight of 1.3 pounds, sets the price for a loaf of Brad in 2010 at $34,348. Finally, inflation must be factored in. Thus, it is safe to say that a loaf of Brad in 1975 could be purchased for $8,710.72. Additional answers from our users:

Glow-in-the-dark mushroom rediscovered after 170 years It's something you would never expect to go missing, but one of the world's brightest glow-in-the-dark mushrooms has been rediscovered after an absence of more than 170 years, according to USA Today. The bioluminescent shrooms had become a Brazilian legend of sorts. They were first spied in 1840 by an English botanist named George Gardner, who was alarmed after he saw some boys playing with a glowing object in the streets of Vila de Natividad, a village in the Goiás state in central Brazil. After that, no more sightings of the brightly glowing fungus had ever been reported. The mushroom was nearly forgotten until 2002, when Brazilian chemist Cassius Stevani came across Gardner's early reports. Then, in 2005, a breakthrough occurred. Izar and Fragaszy scooped up specimens and contacted Stevani, who later confirmed that the mushrooms were indeed Gardner's long lost species. One thing researchers are certain of, however, is that these mushrooms are poisonous.
