What is the typical German breakfast? What do Germans usually have for breakfast or brunch on weekends or holidays?

Volker Eichener

Very typical is:

• One or two rolls (alternatively slices of bread) with butter and jam or honey or nougat cream (Nutella), also cold cuts and cheese.
• A bowl of müsli or oats.
• Yogurt.
• A boiled egg.
• Fruits.

Coffee or tea, maybe a glass of orange juice.

Most people would not eat everything, but this would also be a typical breakfast in a 3 star hotel.

A more opulent weekend breakfast, a breakfast together with friends would include scrambled or plated eggs, bacon or ham or smoked salmon.

A brunch in a restaurant includes both typical breakfast items and regular dishes like soups, salads, meat and fish with vegetables and carbohydrates.

Cayetano: Human institutions will disappoint us, but there is no disappointment in the Word of God

 

PRESS RELEASE

January 30, 2024

Every human institution will pass, but the Word of God will remain forever and should be used as the basis for good governance.

This was part of Senator Alan Peter Cayetano’s prayer as the Senate opened its session on Monday, January 29, 2024, which also happened to be National Bible Day.

“The Lord God is the same today and tomorrow. When we put our trust in people and in institutions, even in a very good institution, we can get disappointed. But when we put our trust in the Word of God, there is no disappointment,” Cayetano said in his prayer.

Alluding to current moves to amend the Constitution, the independent senator asked: “Will some provisions of our Constitution pass away? Will the Senate pass away? We do not know, but we do know that the Word of God will not.”

Affirming God’s love for the Philippines, Cayetano said history is “not a series of coincidences… or a series of who is more powerful, but history is Your story, Lord God, Your perfect timing.”

He said history is about men and women “rising up, confessing their sins, and repenting.”

“So we come before You, Lord God, to fight not only for reforms and education, in health, in the police, but really to have the kind of institutions that will have healthy debate, where all ideas are welcome, where we’ll come before You and really repent and first seek Your kingdom and righteousness,” he added.

Cayetano then prayed for everyone in government — Malacañang, the House of Representatives, the Senate, and all local leaders, business leaders, and even heads of families — that God would give them wisdom.

“We pray Lord God that at this crucial time that we are at a crossroad, we would depend not on people but on Your Word,” he said.###

JANUARY 30, 2024

Press Release

 On Monday, National Bible Day, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano led the prayer at the opening of the Senate plenary session as the Senate continues to resist the push to amend the Constitution through a People’s Initiative (PI).

 "When we place our trust in the word of GOD, there is no disappointment," Cayetano said, emphasizing the importance of faith as the country grapples with a constitutional crisis, with the Senate and the House of Representatives at odds over constitutional amendments. Cayetano previously asserted the importance of carefully discussing any proposed amendment to the Constitution, noting that the Filipino people would ultimately bear the brunt of such changes. ###

Red Bulb Onion flourishes in Davao de Oro!

From the first trial to the second trial, the Department of Agriculture (DA) XI, in partnership with the Provincial Government of Davao de Oro through the Provincial Agriculturist’s Office (PAGRO) and some seed companies, celebrated triumph as they successfully grew the Red Bulb Onion in the province.

During the harvest festival on January 25, more than 15 kg of Reb Bulb Onion were initially harvested, which included Onion 68, Onion 88, Red Pinoy, Red Moon, and Red Dragon varieties coming from the RAMGO International Corporation, Allied Botanical Corporation, East-West Seed Company, and Pilipinas Kaneko Seeds Corporation seed companies.

This project, dubbed as the varietal showcase on Red Bulb Onion Production Derby in Davao de Oro (2nd Trial), was launched on September 5, 2023 at Purok 4, Batinao, New Bataan, Davao de Oro with Batinao Cabacungan Sto Nino Irrigator’s Farmers Association (BACASIFIA), Inc. as the project cooperator.

Moreover, another harvest activity will commence tomorrow, January 30th, Tuesday, as the collaborating agencies aim to harvest a total of 30 kg for this project. The produce will be sold at Php 100 per kilo, and the proceeds will be given to BACASIFIA.

The success of their research greatly contributed to the farmers as it provided them with the right knowledge on which specific varieties thrive in the province's climate and geographical conditions, as well as serving as the basis of DA for procuring red bulb onion seeds to be distributed to qualified farmers.

Among the other partner agencies that aided the success of this project comprised LGU New Bataan, National Irrigation Administration (NIA), Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), USeP-Tagum Mabini Campus, Davao de Oro State College (DDOSC), DA-Agricultural Training Institute (ATI) XI and BPI Davao.

Davao de Oro Governor Dorothy Montejo-Gonzaga represented by Executive Assistant Nena Atamosa, Provincial Agriculturist Jaime Anter, DA XI Regional Executive Director Abel James I. Monteagudo and others were present during the event, ensuring continual support for the welfare and development of our farmers.
