Martin Bosley joins Emile to share this recipe. You can replace the prunes with fresh dates if you wish, just make sure both have been pitted before using them. You will need a pie dish with a removable base about 20cm in diameter. Recipe below! Prune and Mascarpone Tart with Port Syrup Serves 12 600g Prunes or dates, pitted 100g Raw sugar 750ml Port 500g Sweet Pastry - store-bought is fine 60g Caster sugar 4 lemons, for the juice 600g Mascarpone 600ml Cream Put the pitted dates or prunes, the juice of 3 lemons, the raw sugar and port into a saucepan and pace over the heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain the dates from the syrup and set aside to cool. Place the syrup back in the saucepan and simmer until thick. Heat the oven to 200C. Rollout the pastry into a circle larger than the pie plate, leaving enough pastry to fold up around the edges. Carefully lift the pastry up and onto the pie plate, patching it up if required. Leave the excess pastry hanging over the edges. Line the pastry case with foil or baking paper, filled with baking beans or rice. Leave to chill in the fridge for 20 minutes. Bake the pastry case for 20 minutes, lift out the parcel of beans and return the pastry shell to the oven for another 10 minutes until pale gold in colour and dry to the touch. Beat the caster sugar, juice of one lemon, the mascarpone and cream until firm. Chop one third of the drained marinated prunes into the mascarpone mixture and combine together. Fill the tarts with the mascarpone and arrange the remaining prunes across the top. Pour the reduced syrup over the top just before serving.

Pastor Jim Ellis turns to John 15:12–14 to explore how Jesus prunes our lives so that we can truly fulfill His commandment to love one another. While pruning can be painful, it is the process God uses to shape a community defined by sacrificial, life-laying-down love. Moving from abiding to action, we are invited to actively co-labor with God in the world.    STAY CONNECTED

What does it mean for God to prune the people He loves, and how do you respond when spiritual growth feels uncomfortable? In John 15, Jesus describes the Father as the vinedresser, actively tending the branches so they can bear more fruit, but that process is often deeper and more personal than we expect.In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Jeff and Tiffany continue their conversation on Jesus' teaching about the vine and the branches by focusing on the Father's role as the vinedresser. They unpack what pruning really means, how God uses both His Word and loving discipline to shape believers, and why fruitfulness matters so much in the Christian life. This episode offers a practical and encouraging look at abiding in Christ, submitting to God's work, and growing in Christlikeness through every season.What We Discussed03:00 Who the Vinedresser Is in John 15Jeff and Tiffany explain that in Jesus' vine-and-branches teaching, God the Father is the vinedresser, the one who tends, cultivates, and prunes the branches so they can bear more fruit.05:00 Why Pruning Is Part of the Christian LifePruning is not proof that something is wrong. Jesus teaches that even fruitful branches are pruned so they can become even more fruitful.06:00 The First Way God Prunes Us: Through His WordThe gentler form of pruning happens through Scripture. As believers read and obey God's Word, He exposes attitudes, habits, and patterns that need to be removed.10:00 The Second Way God Prunes Us: Through Loving DisciplineWhen God's Word is ignored, the Father may use correction and discipline to bring His children back. This is not rejection, but loving intervention.12:00 What Jesus Means by Branches Being Cut OffJeff addresses the serious warning in John 15 and explains that this passage is not about losing salvation, but about the seriousness of refusing to abide in Christ and bear fruit.15:00 What Spiritual Fruit Really IsThe fruit God wants is not mere productivity or religious activity. It is Christlikeness, the life of Jesus being expressed in the believer through love, humility, obedience, and righteousness.16:00 Abiding in Christ Is the Source of FruitfulnessJesus makes it clear that fruit does not come from trying harder. It comes from remaining connected to Him, depending on Him, and drawing life from Him daily.18:00 God's Goal Is Fruitfulness, Not ComfortJeff and Tiffany remind listeners that the Father's pruning may feel weighty, but it is never hopeless. God is a good gardener, and His purpose is to make His people more like Christ.“His goal is not our comfort. His goal is our fruitfulness.” - Pastor Jeff Cranston

Dans un monde régi par la dictature de l'image, le corps de la femme est particulièrement une cible. Assujettie aux injonctions de minceur, soi-disant synonyme de beauté et de sensualité, l'apparence est constamment jugée, évaluée, critiquée, violentée et objet du commerce industriel des régimes. Un constat tragique qui a inspiré à l'écrivaine américaine Sarai Walker un roman mordant intitulé « Bienvenue à Dietland » aux éditions Gallmeister qui appelle à la révolte. Sarai Walker est l'autrice du roman Dietland, publié dans une douzaine de pays, dont en France, sous le titre (In)visible, et adapté en série télé. Elle a publié dans le New York Times, le Washington Post, le Guardian notamment. Diplômée en creative writing et en anglais, elle donne des conférences sur le féminisme et l'image du corps. Traduit de l'américain par Alexandre Guégan. "Prune vit dans l'ombre, prisonnière d'un corps que la société refuse d'accepter. Rédactrice anonyme pour un magazine destiné aux adolescentes, elle répond aux lettres désespérées de jeunes filles brisées. Mais l'apparition mystérieuse d'une jeune femme aux collants colorés et le mot énigmatique «Dietland» tracé sur sa paume vont tout bouleverser. Prune découvre un monde où les femmes refusent les diktats de la beauté et de la minceur. Tandis qu'un mouvement féministe radical et violent du nom de «Jennifer» secoue le pays, elle doit choisir : continuer à fuir son reflet ou enfin affronter la vérité sur elle-même. Entre rage contenue et quête d'identité, Sarai Walker signe un roman féministe coup de poing, aussi féroce que libérateur, qui interroge avec audace les normes étouffant les femmes." (Présentation des éditions Gallmeister) Illustration musicale : Creep de Radiohead

Treading the Waters of Life with Sylvia Stinson-Perez A member of the Sunday Edition family of podcasts Episode Title: The Voices We Carry – Rewriting the Story We Tell Ourselves What if the voice inside your head isn't telling the truth? In this powerful and deeply human episode of Treading the Waters of Life, host Sylvia Stinson-Perez invites listeners into a meaningful conversation about the inner voices that shape our confidence, our choices, and our sense of belonging. We all carry voices.Some come from childhood.Some from moments of criticism or failure.Some from expectations placed on us by family, culture, or society. Over time, those voices can become the soundtrack of our lives. They whisper things like:“You're not good enough.”“Who do you think you are?”“Don't try—you might fail.” But here's the truth Sylvia explores in this episode: Just because a voice lives in your mind doesn't mean it's telling you the truth. Together with guests Gabriel Lopez Kafati, Anthony Corona, and Nikki Jeffords, Sylvia dives into an honest, humorous, and insightful conversation about self-talk, imposter syndrome, shame, growth, and the courage to rewrite our internal narrative. This episode is full of reflection, laughter, and practical tools to help you transform the voice inside your head from critic to ally.

What if the secret to a thriving spiritual life isn't trying harder… but staying connected? In John 15, Jesus reveals how His love nourishes our lives and produces fruit that lasts. In John 15, Jesus gives one of the most powerful pictures of the Christian life. He describes Himself as the vine and His followers as branches. Just as branches receive life and nourishment from the vine, believers must remain connected to Jesus in order to thrive. In this sermon from Covenant Church Doylestown, Tim Geiger explores what it means to abide in Christ and how God shapes our lives to bear spiritual fruit. In this message you'll learn: • What Jesus meant by “I am the true vine” • Why God sometimes prunes His people • How abiding in Christ produces joy and love • What real spiritual fruit looks like • Why Christian community is essential for growth Jesus' invitation is simple but life-changing: remain in Him.

The delicious, healthful prune has long had a cross to bear: It's best known for making people poop. In the late 1990s, the California Prune Board set out on a quixotic mission to amend this sales-flattening reputation. It would attempt to rechristen this ancient fruit in the hopes the prune could one day be as unencumbered as an apricot, a raisin, or a fig. In a world where every product and person increasingly believes it's one good rebrand away from changing how they are seen, the story of the prune's attempt to become the “dried plum” is a telling tale about the impossibility of escaping who you really are—and the freedom that comes with self-acceptance.

Pourquoi dit-on “travailler pour des prunes” et “un choix cornélien” ?

Choses à Savoir

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 1, 2025 2:23


L'expression « travailler pour des prunes » signifie « travailler pour rien », « sans résultat » ou « sans être payé ». L'explication la plus répandue situe l'origine de l'expression au XIIe siècle, après la Deuxième Croisade (1147–1149). À cette époque, les Croisés européens, en particulier les Français, sont partis en Terre sainte pour libérer Jérusalem. L'expédition fut un échec militaire retentissant. Mais les Croisés ne sont pas revenus totalement les mains vides : ils ont rapporté avec eux, entre autres, des pruniers de Damas, un fruit jusque-là inconnu en Occident. C'est ainsi que la prune de Damas, ou prune damassine, est introduite en France.Or, ramener des pruniers alors qu'on visait la conquête de lieux saints fut vite tourné en dérision : on disait qu'ils avaient « fait la guerre pour des prunes », autrement dit, pour pas grand-chose. L'expression est donc née sur un fond d'échec militaire, mais elle a peu à peu glissé vers un usage plus général : faire quelque chose pour rien, sans profit.« Travailler pour des prunes » vient donc d'une moquerie lancée contre les Croisés revenus bredouilles de Damas.Deuxième expression.L'expression « un choix cornélien » désigne une décision extrêmement difficile à prendre, où chaque option implique un sacrifice ou un dilemme moral. Elle vient directement du nom du dramaturge Pierre Corneille (1606–1684), l'un des grands auteurs du théâtre classique français.Une origine littéraire : les tragédies de CorneillePierre Corneille est célèbre pour ses tragédies dans lesquelles les personnages sont confrontés à des conflits déchirants entre le devoir et les sentiments, entre l'honneur et l'amour, ou encore entre la fidélité à sa patrie et ses liens personnels.Le meilleur exemple est sa pièce Le Cid (1637), où le héros, Rodrigue, doit venger l'honneur de son père en tuant le père de la femme qu'il aime, Chimène. Ce choix impossible — devoir filial ou amour passionné — incarne ce qu'on appelle désormais un choix cornélien.Caractéristiques d'un choix cornélienUn vrai choix cornélien se distingue par :L'absence de « bonne » solution : chaque issue entraîne une perte importante.Un conflit moral ou affectif profond.Une tension dramatique : le personnage est tiraillé entre deux valeurs nobles (et non entre le bien et le mal).C'est donc le poids de la grandeur d'âme ou de l'héroïsme qui rend le choix cornélien particulièrement cruel.

In this week's episode of Sense by Meg Faure, we launch our brand new "Feeding Sense" segment! Paediatric dietician Kath Megaw takes over as guest host. She is joined by Nicole Comninellis, a paediatric physiotherapist. Nicole has a special interest in neurodevelopment and infant digestion. Together, they tackle one of parenting's most common challenges: constipation in babies and toddlers. Understanding Constipation from a Physio's Perspective Kath Megaw introduces the topic, noting that dietary advice alone doesn't always solve constipation. Nicole Comninellis explains how constipation presents differently depending on age. Factors include whether it's a new or chronic issue, and if the child was full-term or preterm. Nicole highlights that repeated stress can create negative neurological pathways. This makes constipation more likely to recur.The Mind-Body Connection in Constipation Nicole explains that stress triggers the "fight or flight" response which inhibits digestion. Helping infants feel safe and calm is key. This allows them to develop a positive internal sense (interoception) of their bodies. For toddlers, autonomy, sensory processing, and personality play a big role. New experiences like starting school or a new sibling can also cause withholding.Practical Strategies for Preventing and Managing Constipation Kath and Nicole discuss actionable tips for parents.For Infants: Understanding normal poo variations is important. Varied holding positions and allowing free movement are crucial. Responding to baby's cues when they need to poo, perhaps by picking them up to let gravity assist, can make a difference. For Toddlers: Beyond a balanced diet and hydration, establishing routines around natural body reflexes (like the urge to poo after meals) is helpful. Encourage chewing as this stimulates the gut. Ample movement, play, and exercise are vital. Tummy massage can aid motility and provide comfort. Creating a safe, supportive, and calm bathroom environment is essential. Positioning: For toddlers using a potty or toilet, ensuring their feet are supported and knees are above their hips is very important. Teaching children to relax rather than just push can also be beneficial.Why You Should Listen This "Feeding Sense" episode offers a holistic view of constipation. Kath Megaw and Nicole Comninellis provide expert insights. They explain that movement, posture, and emotional well-being are as vital as diet. The episode is packed with practical, compassionate strategies. These can help prevent constipation from becoming a chronic issue. It's about making pooing a positive, stress-free experience for your child.Kath Megaw is a leading paediatric dietician with over 20 years of experience in infant and child nutrition.
