Or maybe this post should carry the subtitle “The thing about feelings”… It was in December 2020 when I went to pick up our new family member, the 1979 VW LT we call now “Peter”. At that point I had no idea what we would use this guy for but when I saw it online…
Volkswagen LT45 1979 2,4l Diesel 55kW Peter arrived on 11.12.2020 in our family. He is an experienced WV LT45 originally built in 1979 who was at some point converted into a campervan here in Finland. In Austrian dialect he is called “Da Peda” and that’s why I will name him that way. Da Peda has…

Here the cracker is pictured with pink sauerkraut and mung bean sprouts. 2 zucchinis, middle-size 3 cups water 1/4 cup basil/ other fresh herbs…
These falafels are raw when you use sprouted chickpeas. If you find that process too difficult you can also use boiled ones. I love these with my green salad. They are spicy so if you like you can also leave the cayenne away. 1 small onion Handful fresh parsley (or 1 tbsp dried) 1/2 handful…

This pesto is filled with nutrients because of the carrot greens, herbs and soaked seeds. You can also use unsoaked sunflower seeds and cashews, but it is always better to soak all nuts and seed when you can. Soaking increases their nutritional value and makes them easier to digest. Handful carrot top greens, thick stems…
