Easter’s Superstar

Standard

Image

1/2 kg flour
50 gr fresh yeast
200 g sugar
3 eggs
2 tablespoons of melted butter 
400 ml lukewarm milk
1 egg for topping
Nutella jar (can be also some nice jam, marmalade, poppy seed filing, anything you want

Mix 3-4 tablespoons of milk with yeasts. Put aside for 15 minutes. Add milk/butter/egg mixture and flour. Knead the dough until shiny and springy. Add extra flour if the dough is too liquid. Leave aside in a rather warm place so that the dough doubles its size.

Knead again and divide into 3 parts. Roll into 1 cm thick circle-shaped pieces. Smear the first one with melted Nutella and cover with the second one. Smear the remaining Nutella on the second one and cover with the third. Now make sure that the edges are joined together by pressing them with a fork. Cut the dough into 16 equal parts leaving the middle ring of like 10 cm untouched. Roll all the parts upside down into spirals – three times spiral move (see pics below). Smear the top with the beaten egg and bake for half an hour in 180 C. Simple pimple.

Clockwork Orange

Standard

“The next morning I woke up at oh eight oh oh hours, my brothers, and as I still felt shagged and fagged and fashed and bashed and my glazzies were stuck together real horrorshow with sleepglue, I thought I would not go to school.”

Says Alex after a night spent on raping/robbing/beating/ and another ultra-violence stuff. Isn’t this brilliant? 🙂

 

“Then, brothers, it came. Oh, bliss, bliss and heaven. I lay all nagoy to the ceiling, my gulliver on my rookers on the pillow, glazzies closed, rot open in bliss, slooshying the sluice of lovely sounds. Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh.”

This was Alex listening to ‘Ludovig von himself’

 

“Does God want goodness or the choice of goodness? Is a man who chooses to be bad perhaps in some way better than a man who has the good imposed upon him? (…) Goodness is something chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man.” 

 

Good for me; due to my origins, I understand like 90% of the dialect Alex uses. I’ve seen that most of the people on Goodreads complain the book is completely unreadable due to the language used and very violent scenes. I’ve already published my review on it so I’m not repeating myself here, but seriously, I love this book.
