In Tyler Yaw's newest project. He breaks down why Lent is so much more.Lent as the Original 40-Day Grit Challenge: Leaving the Arena for the ThroneTyler opens the Applied Faith Podcast by noting that Ash Wednesday marked the start of Lent and challenges listeners not to treat Lent as a watered-down inconvenience or failed resolution. He frames Lent as a 40-day training ground meant to step out of cultural noise, “kill the flesh,” and create space for the spirit, describing fasting as an intentional rebellion against consumerism and instant gratification (endless scrolling, on-demand entertainment, and convenience).He introduces the “arena and the throne” concept: the gladiator mindset seeks applause in the cultural arena, while the kingdom mindset lives before God as the only true spectator, aligning with Jesus' teaching to fast in secret. Tyler encourages listeners to use the next 40 days for quiet, disciplined formation and presents his 40-day Kingdom Challenge, built around eight daily disciplines designed to break reliance on the world and anchor participants to the kingdom. He invites listeners to join him, follow along with the daily podcast episodes, subscribe on YouTube, and participate in the community as they pursue resilience and faith leading up to Easter.00:00 Ash Wednesday Kickoff: Why Lent Matters Again01:00 Lent as the Original 40-Day Grit Challenge (Not a Diet)01:44 Fasting as Rebellion Against Consumerism & Instant Gratification02:41 Arena vs. Throne: Gladiator Mindset vs. Kingdom Mindset04:00 Fasting in Secret: Leaving the Applause Behind04:45 A Practical Framework: The 40-Day Kingdom Challenge05:49 Use the Next 40 Days to Shift Your Trajectory (Join the Challenge)06:51 Community + Subscribe: Building Applied Faith Together07:31 Wrap-Up: Daily Episodes, Accountability, and Eyes on the Throne

Your gray hair, thinning lashes, brain fog, and that low energy feeling after 30 might all trace back to one thing: falling NAD and stressed mitochondria. This episode breaks down what actually happens inside your cells as NAD declines, and what you can do about it using specific compounds from mushrooms, olive oil, and even chocolate. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Subscribe and save $15 on Wonderfeel by going to: https://getwonderfeel.com/product/wonderfeel-youngr-nmn/?utm_source=Dave&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=episode2Host Dave Asprey sits down with Baran Dilaver, CEO and co-founder of Wonderfeel Biosciences, to unpack the real science behind NAD, mitochondrial energy, and long-term longevity. Baran is an entrepreneur and inventor who previously led multiple start-ups as CEO and COO, collaborated with leading scientists and medical experts, and developed award-winning products. A UC Berkeley economics graduate and former scholarship athlete, he now focuses on translating cutting-edge bioscience into practical tools that enhance people's lives. They break down how NAD powers mitochondria, why your body strategically allocates cellular energy away from peak cognitive performance as you age, and how stress accelerates that decline. You'll hear the differences between niacinamide, NR, and NMN, the FDA confusion around NMN, and why raising NAD is about cellular repair, resilience, and metabolic function, not just “more energy.” The conversation goes deep on hydroxytyrosol, the powerful olive oil polyphenol that acts as a CD38 inhibitor, and ergothioneine, a mushroom-derived antioxidant with its own receptor in the human body that can accumulate in damaged tissues. Baran shares the origin story that pushed him to research ergothioneine, along with anecdotal observations from long-term users reporting improvements in sleep, focus, energy, thicker hair, reduced gray hair, and even eyelash regrowth. You'll also hear Dave's practical take on ketosis, fasting, supplements, and metabolism, why he prefers NAD precursors over IV NAD for most people, how methyl donors affect NAD IV tolerance, and why Wonderfeelbuilt a creatine chocolate bar sweetened with allulose to stay keto-friendly and diabetic-friendly. This is biohacking grounded in mechanism, from mitochondria and neuroplasticity to anti-aging strategy and smarter supplementation. You'll Learn: • What NAD does in the body and why oral NAD itself is not effective • How niacinamide, NR, and NMN compare as NAD precursors • Why mitochondria control energy allocation, cognition, and resilience • How hydroxytyrosol may support NAD longevity through CD38 inhibition • What ergothioneine is, why it comes from mushrooms, and why the body has a receptor for it • What long-term users commonly report: better sleep, clearer thinking, stronger energy, and cosmetic shifts • Why Dave prefers supplements over NAD IVs in most cases • How allulose differs from other sweeteners and why it matters for metabolism • Why creatine supports brain energy and how heat changes absorption strategy Thank you to our sponsors! • MASA Chips | Go to https://www.masachips.com/DAVEASPREY and use code DAVEASPREY for 25% off your first order • Branch Basics | Get 15% off at https://branchbasics.com/DAVE15 with code DAVE15 • Timeline | Go to timeline.com/Dave for 20% off• OneSkin | Try OneSkin at https://www.oneskin.co/DAVE and use code DAVE for 15% off Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

An Unexpected Path to Baking Chef Chuck Arnaud didn't follow a traditional route to becoming one of Luray's most beloved bakers. For over two decades, he worked in stagecraft, starting as a junior high school stagehand and eventually country music artists in Nashville. However, his career took a dramatic turn when he traded stage lights for bread ovens, opening Main Street Bakery and Catering in the heart of Page County. During this episode of The Valley Today with host Janet Michael and Gina Hilliard, president of the Luray Page Chamber of Commerce, Chef Chuck revealed what drew him to this picturesque Virginia community. "I've lots of kin in the area," he explains, describing his deep family roots on the other side of the ridge in Shenandoah County. This connection made the transition feel natural rather than terrifying. Moreover, Page County's stunning landscape—featuring Shenandoah National Park, the Shenandoah River, and George Washington National Forest—provided the perfect backdrop for his new venture. The Aroma of Home Walking into Main Street Bakery triggers something profound in visitors. "The number one thing people say is, 'Wow, it smells wonderful in here,'" Chef Chuck shares. This reaction isn't accidental. He believes people have become disconnected from their grandmother's kitchens, where families gathered around tables filled with home-baked bread and the aroma of love filled the air. Furthermore, Chef Chuck sees his bakery as more than a business—it's a bridge to lost traditions. "That magical aroma of family and love has just become lost to us," he reflects. "So people reconnect with that when they come in because that aroma—pow—it's front and center right there when you walk into the bakery." What's on the Menu Currently, Main Street Bakery operates with a skeleton crew of three people, plus dedicated volunteers like Mike Salvino. The team focuses primarily on artisan breads, muffins, scones, and quiche. Chef Chuck personally handles everything that goes into the oven, while Emma has moved into savory work, tackling knife work, soups, and salads. The bakery's soup program has become particularly popular. Two standouts fly off the shelves: the Senegalese peanut soup, which customers request repeatedly because of its unique, original flavor, and the classic potato leek soup, which sells by the quart. Customers can enjoy soup in the bakery or take it home in half-pint, pint, or quart containers, either hot or cold. Meanwhile, the sweet treats maintain their own devoted following. Chocolate chip cookies disappear so quickly that they rarely make it to closing time. Brownies and blondies also prove to be "good problems to have," as Chef Chuck puts it, consistently selling out. The Art of Bread Making Unlike many modern bakeries that focus exclusively on cakes and cupcakes, Main Street Bakery champions the nearly lost art of bread baking. Chef Chuck approaches bread with seasonal creativity rather than rigid schedules. On cold, chilly days, he gravitates toward dark, rustic loaves. Recently, he crafted a buttered honey oat multigrain bread that toasts beautifully, as well as a traditional pumpernickel—chocolatey and coffee-forward with generous amounts of caraway and fennel seeds. Additionally, Chef Chuck emphasizes that customers shouldn't hesitate to make special requests. Want a bread bowl for your soup? Just call ahead. "If you want a bowl, call us," he insists. "We'll make you a bowl and we'll put soup in it and sit you down and make you happy. That's just what we do and who we are right now." Building Community Through Collaboration Chef Chuck's philosophy extends beyond his own storefront. He actively seeks collaborations with other local businesses, understanding that a rising tide lifts all boats. His strongest partnerships include Hawksbill Brewing Company and Wisteria Vineyard, where food naturally pairs with beer and wine. These collaborations take various forms. For Mardi Gras, he brings king cake to Hawksbill Brewing Company, complete with the traditional baby hidden inside—whoever finds it wins a free beer. For St. Patrick's Day, he plans to serve cottage pies with ground beef, gravy, mashed potatoes, and caramelized cheese. At Wisteria Vineyard, he creates seasonal popups that showcase wine pairings with his culinary creations. Nevertheless, Chef Chuck remains open to new partnerships. He specifically mentions The Vintage Barrel and Coal Ridge Brewery as businesses he'd love to work with, encouraging anyone interested to reach out directly. The Power of Food Memories Throughout the conversation, Chef Chuck returns repeatedly to the concept of food memories—those powerful moments when a simple dish transports you to another time and place. "It can be a simple moment where you have a dish in front of you," he explains. "It could be in Tuscany. It could be at the top of a mountainside just having a ham and cheese sandwich, but that moment, that exhilaration of you just climbed up Old Rag Mountain and you have a cheese sandwich, and by God that is the best cheese sandwich because you are sitting on top of the known world at that point." These memories stick with people forever, whether they're teenagers or ninety years old. Consequently, Janet believes parents need to create more of these moments for their children, exposing them to the aromas and experiences that will become their own cherished food memories. Catering with Intention While COVID devastated the bakery's large-scale catering operations, Chef Chuck has found his sweet spot in wedding brunches. His pitch to couples is simple but compelling: at a wedding reception with 175 guests, newlyweds won't get quality time with Aunt Maggie. However, a brunch the next day allows them to sit, have coffee, and actually hear about her whale-watching trip. "Isn't that what weddings are about?" he asks. "It's just a unification of two people who have, against all odds, found love." Brunches also unite two families who may have nothing in common, giving them time to discover shared interests—like realizing they both golf and should play together sometime. For these events, Main Street Bakery arrives with coffee, creamer, quiche, muffins, scones, and seasonal pastries. Importantly, Chef Chuck sources as much as possible from local farmers, which sets his offerings apart from generic catering options. "You can tell a muffin from Costco," he notes. "It might as well have a red light that's flashing on it." The Kindness Economy One of the most touching stories Chef Chuck shares involves Tommy and Hannah Chang, who became regular customers after Main Street Bakery made them feel welcome in the community. When they noticed his outdated website, they brought in a videographer from DC with drones, track cameras, and steady cams. They spent an entire day filming and creating a professional website. When Chef Chuck reached for his checkbook, expecting a bill in the thousands, they refused payment. "You showed us kindness and here's kindness repaid," they told him. This exchange perfectly illustrates the reciprocal nature of community building that Chef Chuck champions. Similarly, regular customer Noel now works at the bakery and has become an exceptional salesperson. "People are like, 'Dude, I just wanted a cookie,'" Chef Chuck laughs, "and they walk out of there with three quiches, four bread puddings, and six breads. And they're feeling good about it." Looking Toward Retirement As Chef Chuck enters his sixties, retirement looms on the horizon. His plans? "I'm gonna smoke stuff and ferment things," he declares with a smile. This includes smoked meats, smoked fish, fermenting ales, wines, and exploring breads from different cultures around the world. More importantly, he hopes to find a venue where he can help people recapture the lost moments of generational knowledge transfer. "It used to be the grandmothers would teach the young ladies sewing and needlepoint and crafting," he reflects. "Guys would show their sons and grandsons how to hunt, how to fish, how to tie a lure on." These traditions are disappearing, and Chef Chuck worries that Page County's agrarian roots are being forgotten in the rush toward progress. Practical Information Main Street Bakery operates Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Located at 127 East Main Street in Luray, the bakery sits right at the top of the hill with flags out front—you can't miss it. While the bakery doesn't post menus online because offerings change frequently based on season and availability, customers can visit mainstreetbakery-catering.com/ for more information. The bakery maintains an active presence on Facebook and Instagram, where Chef Chuck's wife Janet showcases her exceptional food photography skills. Finally, Chef Chuck encourages customers to call ahead, especially near closing time. "If it's 4:45 and we close at five, call ahead and say, 'Hey, do you have three cookies that would really make my day?' I will stay open till you get there," he promises. "What's the worst thing that's gonna happen? I'm gonna say I just don't have that, but maybe tomorrow." The Bigger Picture As the conversation winds down, it becomes clear that Main Street Bakery represents something larger than artisan bread and chocolate chip cookies. It embodies a philosophy of community, collaboration, and connection—values that Chef Chuck believes are essential to preserving what makes small-town life special. In an era when people increasingly feel disconnected from their food sources and family traditions, Chef Chuck offers a simple remedy: walk through his door, breathe in the aroma of fresh-baked bread, and remember what it felt like when someone who loved you baked with care. That memory, that feeling, that moment of connection—that's what Main Street Bakery serves alongside every loaf, every muffin, every bowl of soup. And perhaps that's the most important recipe of all.

La colaboradora de 'Herrera en COPE', Pilar García de la Granja, ha analizado en la sección 'Economía de bolsillo' cómo España encadena un año y medio con subida de precios por encima de la media de la UE. Según los datos definitivos del IPC de enero, la subida de los precios en España fue del 2,3 % interanual, mientras que en la eurozona se situó en el 1,7 %. Sin embargo, si realizamos un análisis detallado, vemos cómo la moderación del IPC general en enero se debió, en gran medida, al grupo de la vivienda. Este experimentó una bajada en su tasa anual de tres puntos gracias a que la subida de los precios de la electricidad fue notablemente inferior a la registrada en el mismo mes del año anterior. Pero volviendo a la comparativa con la eurozona del dato anteriormente planteado, García de la Granja ha explicado que una de las razones principales de esta diferencia es el crecimiento demográfico en nuestro país. "Somos más habitantes y consumimos más; por lo tanto, la demanda ...

Human attachment is thousands of years old . . but Valentine’s Day started off as a blood soaked Roman pagan fertility festival. The romance element is a pretty recent development. As usual, the Victorians reinvented it, taking it from a bloody sacrifice to roses and Valentine cards.

Why does a holiday about love leave so many people feeling lonely, pressured, or disappointed? Roses are red. Chocolate is sweet. But culture's definition of love? Completely confused. Culture has redefined love as self-centered, emotional, and disposable. Scripture defines love as covenantal, sacrificial, and refining. Valentine's Day exposes which definition we're living by. Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or married, this episode will challenge you to examine what you actually believe about love. We're talking about emotional highs vs. spiritual maturity, the idol of romance, and what 1 Corinthians 13 really calls us to. This Valentine's Day, don't just celebrate love. Define it correctly. Let's get into it. Connect With The Few! Follow us and join the conversation:

This episode kicks off our Valentine's Day weekend series, and it's all about the love of the horse and what actually makes riders successful in dressage.We share three simple truths.Dressage benefits every horse, physically and mentally, no matter their breed or “type.”Kicking and pulling doesn't create harmony, so if you feel stuck in that cycle, it's a sign to pause and change the approach.And lessons matter, but they can't be the only thing, because progress comes faster when you're also learning between rides through good education, ideas, and a system you can follow.You'll also hear some of our favourite transformation stories, including Sparky and Chocolate, plus a really helpful reminder about not over facing your horse. Break everything into smaller pieces, build confidence, and let it take the time it takes.We answer some great community questions too, why so many riders feel stuck at Training and First Level, and how judges score tests. The big takeaway is to keep measuring you versus you, use feedback as information, and stay focused on the journey with your horse.Happy Riding,AmeliaPS tonight, Friday Feb 13th, Nicole is hosting a fun trivia night, if you want to join that live you can join it here on YouTube, then Saturday we're live from the barn, and Sunday we're back again for another live chat.And don't forget to share why you love to ride with #ILoveRiding for a chance to win enrollment in 30 Days to Dressage Foundations with Amelia

Fluent Fiction - Danish: Sparks in the Bunker: Chocolates, Friendship, and New Beginnings Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2026-02-13-08-38-20-da Story Transcript:Da: I den isnende kulde af vinteren, i en underjordisk bunker, sad Kasper og Mette sammen.En: In the icy cold of winter, in an underground bunker, Kasper and Mette sat together.Da: Over dem hang en enkelt funklende lysstofrør, og langs væggene stod hylder fyldt med konservesdåser og papkasser.En: Above them hung a single sparkling fluorescent light, and along the walls stood shelves filled with canned goods and cardboard boxes.Da: De havde en vigtig opgave denne dag: at gennemgå nødforsyningerne og sikre sig, at alt var i orden.En: They had an important task that day: to go through the emergency supplies and make sure everything was in order.Da: Kasper, hvis pande var let fugtig af sved trods kulden, stirrede nervøst ned på sine papirer.En: Kasper, whose forehead was slightly damp with sweat despite the cold, stared nervously down at his papers.Da: Alt skulle tjekkes.En: Everything had to be checked.Da: Det var vigtigt.En: It was important.Da: Han så over på Mette, der så ud til at have det sjovt med opgaven.En: He looked over at Mette, who seemed to be enjoying the task.Da: Hun smilede, og hendes latter lyste rummet op.En: She smiled, and her laughter brightened the room.Da: "Skal vi ikke gøre det til en skattejagt?"En: "Shouldn't we turn it into a treasure hunt?"Da: spurgte Mette muntert, da hun så på de uorganiserede lageroptegnelser.En: Mette asked cheerfully as she looked at the disorganized inventory records.Da: Hun kunne mærke Kaspers spændinger og ønskede at lette stemningen.En: She could sense Kasper's tension and wanted to lighten the mood.Da: Kasper tøvede.En: Kasper hesitated.Da: En del af ham var usikker, men han havde brug for hjælp.En: A part of him was unsure, but he needed help.Da: Desuden ønskede han, at Mette skulle se ham som en, der kunne lede og samarbejde.En: Besides, he wanted Mette to see him as someone who could lead and collaborate.Da: "Det lyder som en sjov idé," svarede han endelig, og et lille, nervøst smil spillede på hans læber.En: "That sounds like a fun idea," he finally responded, and a small, nervous smile played on his lips.Da: Mens de gik igennem rækkerne af forsyninger, arbejdede de systematisk, men med et skævt smil og en lille konkurrence om at finde mønter gemt blandt dåser og poser.En: As they went through the rows of supplies, they worked systematically, but with a wry smile and a little competition to find coins hidden among cans and bags.Da: Deres latter fyldte den trykkede bunker.En: Their laughter filled the oppressive bunker.Da: De glemte nærmest den strenge kulde uden for.En: They almost forgot the harsh cold outside.Da: Pludselig fandt de en kasse, der ikke stemte overens med listen.En: Suddenly, they found a box that didn't match the list.Da: Mette rykkede hurtig med et frækt smil og åbnede den.En: Mette quickly moved with a cheeky grin and opened it.Da: Til deres store overraskelse fandt de ikke medicinske forsyninger, men chokoladebarer.En: To their great surprise, they didn't find medical supplies but chocolate bars.Da: Kasper så på chokoladerne og derefter på kalenderen.En: Kasper looked at the chocolates and then at the calendar.Da: Det var Valentinsdag.En: It was Valentine's Day.Da: Dette kunne være hans chance.En: This could be his chance.Da: "Ved du, hvad chokolade betyder på Valentinsdag?"En: "Do you know what chocolate means on Valentine's Day?"Da: spurgte han lidt kluntet, men med et oprigtigt blik i øjnene.En: he asked a little awkwardly, but with a sincere look in his eyes.Da: Mette kiggede op, overrasket, inden hendes ansigt lyste op i et bredt smil.En: Mette looked up, surprised, before her face lit up in a wide smile.Da: "Måske gør det," svarede hun drilsk.En: "Maybe it does," she replied teasingly.Da: De delte chokoladen, grinte igen og lod dagen afspejle sig i sød mulighed og tillid.En: They shared the chocolate, laughed again, and let the day reflect in sweet possibility and trust.Da: "Jeg tror, vi har fundet mere end bare chokolade i dag," sagde Mette varmt.En: "I think we've found more than just chocolate today," Mette said warmly.Da: Kasper nikkede, mens en ny følelse spredte sig i hans indre.En: Kasper nodded, as a new feeling spread within him.Da: Da de til sidst blev færdige med opgaven, mærkede Kasper, at han var blevet mindre anspændt.En: When they finally finished the task, Kasper felt less tense.Da: Han havde ikke blot afsluttet tjekket, men fundet en ven og noget uventet særlig.En: He hadn't just completed the check, but had found a friend and something unexpectedly special.Da: Mette følte, at hun endelig kunne vise sine ægte følelser, mens hun balancerede mellem ansvar og hjertets kald.En: Mette felt she could finally show her true feelings while balancing between responsibility and heart's calling.Da: Ved dagens afslutning var bunkeren ikke blot et sted fyldt med forsyninger, men et sted hvor venskab og nye begyndelser tog form.En: By the end of the day, the bunker was not just a place filled with supplies, but a place where friendship and new beginnings took shape.

Are you still scrambling for a thoughtful gift for your loved one? Look no further! The Grit & Grain team put our heads together and came up with a romantic plan you can use for the occasion — a beer and chocolate pairing, of course. We're joined again by our best buddy Stacey O’Connor, who stopped by to hang out after her Pink Boots episode last week and who also happens to teach a food and beer pairing class at South Puget Sound Community College. We gathered five of the most popular chocolate treats from the legendary Johnson Candy in Tacoma and paired each one with five different beers to see what works and what doesn't. The catch? The beers are not stouts. Tune in to find out why mint and saisons mysteriously taste like cherries, how Stacey uses the language of love to teach her food pairing classes, and how to build your own thoughtful Valentine's Day date-night shopping list. The post Episode 177: Beer & Chocolate appeared first on Grit & Grain Podcast.

Rose from The Chocolate Shop in The English Market has a life steeped in chocolate! PJ gets some clues on getting the best chocolate for your love. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ready for an episode you're sure to love? Because it's Valentine's Day? Get it?Hallmark holiday jokes aside, we do think you're going to enjoy this one because it starts with something just about all of us can get behind: chocolate. More specifically, we're talking about Indulgence Chocolatiers (one of Radio Milwaukee's neighbors in Walker's Point) and its Valentine-inspired truffle collection. The adorable and lovingly crafted box is a pretty much perfect gift for the holiday, whether you're planning to hand it to the object of your affection or just treat yourself.Ann took on the arduous task of trying all six truffles and shared a few thoughts on each in her Milwaukee Magazine article. While you're checking out the mag's website, pop over to Ann's story on the return of Phobruary in Milwaukee's Silver City neighborhood. It's a month-long nod to the Vietnamese soup and a chance to support the hardworking restaurants on our south side.You'll also hear about the grand opening of Mediterranean/Middle Eastern spot Aya and — at the very heart of this episode — a special interview with two people who just celebrated a grand opening of their own: Meghan and Kyle Knall.The talented duo behind Birch and the brand-new French brasserie Cassis share their sweet origin story that took them from Alabama to Brooklyn to Milwaukee, as well as why they decided to bring a taste of Paris to the Third Ward. With their help, we dive into the new menu — from classic steak frites to the social-media-famous ravioli dauphine — and chat about their Southern roots, the quest for the perfect sweet tea, and a potential future barbecue project.

Story Transcript:Nl: Het was een koude winterdag in het Tulpenveld Ziekenhuis.En: It was a cold winter day in Tulpenveld Hospital.Nl: Buiten kleurden rijen tulpenvelden de horizon in levendige

flowers and disinfectants mingled in the air.Nl: Midden in de drukte van het veldhospitaal besloot Jeroen dat hij Sanne wilde verrassen voor Valentijnsdag.En: Amidst the hustle and bustle of the field hospital, Jeroen decided he wanted to surprise Sanne for Valentine's Day.Nl: Jeroen, altijd enthousiast en soms onvoorspelbaar, had een idee.En: Jeroen, always enthusiastic and sometimes unpredictable, had an idea.Nl: Hij wilde hartvormige chocolaatjes maken.En: He wanted to make heart-shaped chocolates.Nl: Sanne, pragmatisch en goed in improviseren, trok een wenkbrauw op toen Jeroen over zijn plan vertelde.En: Sanne, pragmatic and good at improvising, raised an eyebrow when Jeroen told her about his plan.Nl: "Met alleen medische spullen?En: "With just medical supplies?Nl: Ben je gek?"En: Are you crazy?"Nl: zei ze met een scheve lach.En: she said with a crooked smile.Nl: Maar diep vanbinnen waardeerde ze Jeroens gekke ideeën.En: But deep down, she appreciated Jeroen's crazy ideas.Nl: Jeroen hoopte dat hij Sanne kon imponeren.En: Jeroen hoped he could impress Sanne.Nl: Sanne kon het enthousiasme van Jeroen niet weerstaan en stemde ermee in hem te helpen.En: Sanne couldn't resist Jeroen's enthusiasm and agreed to help him.Nl: Hun eerste taak was het vinden van de ingrediënten.En: Their first task was to find the ingredients.Nl: In plaats van traditionele keukenspullen, moesten ze zich wenden tot de vreemdste plastieken lepels en bakjes uit de voorraadkast van het ziekenhuis.En: Instead of traditional kitchen supplies, they had to turn to the oddest plastic spoons and containers from the hospital's pantry.Nl: "Oké, dit wordt een interessante uitdaging," zei Sanne terwijl ze probeerde haar lach in te houden.En: "Okay, this is going to be an interesting challenge," said Sanne while trying to hold back her laughter.Nl: Jeroen knikte zelfverzekerd.En: Jeroen nodded confidently.Nl: "We kunnen het!"En: "We can do it!"Nl: Met geïmproviseerde mengkommen en pincetten om te roeren, begonnen ze hun culinaire avontuur.En: With improvised mixing bowls and tweezers for stirring, they began their culinary adventure.Nl: Echter, midden in hun experiment gebeurde er iets onvoorziens.En: However, in the midst of their experiment, something unforeseen happened.Nl: Jeroen stootte per ongeluk een zakje cacaopoeder om, en al snel dwarrelde er een wolk van bruin poeder door de lucht.En: Jeroen accidentally knocked over a bag of cocoa powder, and soon a cloud of brown powder swirled through the air.Nl: Het poeder landde overal: op de bedden, de vloer, maar ook op de verpleegsters die net binnenkwamen.En: The powder landed everywhere: on the beds, the floor, and also on the nurses who had just walked in.Nl: Het verplegend personeel en de patiënten konden niet anders dan lachen om het komische tafereel.En: The nursing staff and patients couldn't help but laugh at the comical scene.Nl: Jeroen bloosde, maar voelde zich ook opgelucht door de vrolijkheid die hij had veroorzaakt.En: Jeroen blushed but also felt relieved by the cheerfulness he had caused.Nl: Sanne stond naast hem, proestend van het lachen terwijl ze het poeder van haar schort klopte.En: Sanne stood next to him, snorting with laughter while dusting the powder off her apron.Nl: Tussen al het gelach door keken Jeroen en Sanne elkaar aan met een glimp van begrip.En: Amidst all the laughter, Jeroen and Sanne looked at each other with a flash of understanding.Nl: Ondanks het slagveld van chocolade vonden ze toch een manier om enkele chocoladehartjes te maken.En: Despite the chocolate battlefield, they still found a way to make a few chocolate hearts.Nl: Ze waren niet perfect, maar ze waren er trots op.En: They weren't perfect, but they were proud of them.Nl: Terwijl ze de chocolaatjes samen proefden, voelde Jeroen zijn zelfvertrouwen groeien.En: As they tasted the chocolates together, Jeroen felt his confidence grow.Nl: Voorzichtig zei hij: "Sanne, je weet dat ik het ook voor jou deed, hè?"En: Cautiously, he said, "Sanne, you know I did it for you too, right?"Nl: Sanne glimlachte warm naar hem.En: Sanne smiled warmly at him.Nl: "Ja, ik weet het, Jeroen.En: "Yes, I know, Jeroen.Nl: En ik vond het geweldig."En: And I loved it."Nl: In dat moment leken al hun zorgen weg te zijn.En: In that moment, all their worries seemed to vanish.Nl: Er was geen betere manier om Valentijnsdag door te brengen.En: There was no better way to spend Valentine's Day.Nl: Onder de tinten van de tulpenvelden buiten begrepen ze dat hun vriendschap een nieuwe diepte had bereikt.En: Under the shades of the tulip fields outside, they understood that their friendship had reached a new depth.Nl: Het was het begin van iets moois.En: It was the beginning of something beautiful.Nl: De chocolaatjes waren misschien niet perfect, maar de herinneringen waren dat zeker wel.En: The chocolates might not have been perfect, but the memories certainly were.Nl: En zo eindigde de chaotische, maar liefdevolle Valentijnsdag in het Tulpenveld Ziekenhuis met een gedeelde glimlach en een onverwacht begin.En: And so, the chaotic but loving Valentine's Day in Tulpenveld Hospital ended with a shared smile and an unexpected beginning.

Does Valentine's Day chocolate feel fun, but also bring up a little inward groan?Despite being a chocolate-lover, it can bring up fear of overeating, guilt around sweets, and the pressure to “be good", especially if you have a sweet tooth and a history of dieting.In this episode of Eating Habits for Life, I chat about why chocolate feels so charged on Valentine's Day, how restriction and fear actually drive overeating, and 4 simple steps to enjoy chocolate with intention instead of urgency.You'll also learn what to do if you eat more chocolate than you wanted, without shame or starting over.This episode is for anyone who wants to feel calm, confident, and in control around chocolate, without relying on willpower.___________

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with Michelle Weissman Heston of Heston Cakes. A cake artist with a passion for designing, building, and presenting showstopping desserts, Heston says, "Ultimately, all cake … in my mind should be chocolate."   From hyper-realistic cakes shaped like sneakers, Big Macs, and lox and bagels to simple but dramatic Valentine's Day chocolate cakes, Michelle offers tips for adapting any recipe (yes, even box cake), mastering chocolate ganache, and decorating with intention. She also shares easy ideas for Valentine's flair — including candy-heart surprises baked right into the cake.   "It is my great passion to design, build, and present cakes," she says. "I love talking about cake, I like thinking about cake, and I really like eating cake."   Michelle Heston talks about how food has always been a common thread in her family, why dessert gets the spotlight, and why a truly special cake should tell a story — whether through flavor, filling, or over-the-top décor. She also shares her recipe for chocolate ganache, which you can find at JewishJournal.com/podcasts.   For more cake inspiration, follow @HestonCakes on Instagram.
