  1. Heidegger wrote in German. The world mostly doesn't. Something happens in transit — and that something turns out to matter philosophically. This is a thinking-aloud piece: no footnotes were harmed in its making.

  6. More on dessert experiments.

    To keep one’s sanity amid the Trump/GOP chaos and corruption, one has to do small and enjoyable things.

    To this end, I continued my experiment with the old English dessert called Syllabub. As a reminder it was originally a confection made with cream and sweet white wine.

    On this 4th experiment I used fresh squeezed Cara Cara orange juice along with the heavy whipping cream and sugar, all whipped together for about 5 minutes with a hand blender.

    So far, I’ve experimented with Sauvignon Blank, Meyer Lemons, Limes, and now Cara Cara oranges. In each experiment the Syllabub topped fresh berries.

    My wife and I definitely prefer the citrus over the wine version.

  11. On something fun and enjoyable for a change, dessert.

    Over the last two weekends we tried the old English whipped cream dessert called Syllabub. I found it referenced in a novel I read recently. It is very quick and easy to make and traditionally includes heavy whipping cream, white wine, and sugar.

    The wine and sugar are mixed to partially dissolve the sugar, then mixed with the heavy whipping cream, and then whipped with a hand or other electric mixer. It is then placed over something like fresh berries.

    We made it on three different days and varied the liquid and the sugar amount. For the first we used a Sauvignon Blanc. For the second we used squeezed Meyer Lemon, and for the third we used squeezed Limes.

    We seem to like the lemon or lime variation better than with wine. For the berries we used fresh chilled Raspberries, Blackberries, and Blueberries.
