Aussi utile qu’Internet ait été pour l’humanité, en nous connectant tous comme jamais auparavant et en regroupant la somme de toutes nos connaissances en un lieu facilement accessible, nous connaissons tous son véritable objectif : les images de chats. Les images de chats sont probablement les plaisirs les plus populaires et les plus largement partagés
These aren't just lovely portraits of people posing with their pets, but look a little closely and you'll see that the owners are wearing sweaters and vests that resemble the fur of their dogs. And they should because they were literally made from them. Below is a series of photographs (an ongoing project) by photographer Erwan Fichou of people posing with their beautiful dogs, sporting canine couture... actual sweaters and vests made from the hair (fur?) of their own pet dogs. Here is the description of the series: Dogwool series, 2005-2007. Eleven portraits (in progress) The hair, especially hair known as the stuffing, once recovered after brushing, is carefully preserved until the amount necessary to achieve the knit structure. The hair is spun into balls of 50 g by a specialist before returning via mail, to its owner. C-prints, 40 * 50 cm, Marie-Louise, glass, wooden framework. To see more of photographer Erwan Fichou's unusual work, go here. Apparently there are a few people out there who actually make clothes from your pet's hair or fur. Pet Yarn Chic makes hats, scarves and wraps from your pet's 'yarn'. Above: Bettina Menkhoff, 50, from Stoetze in Germany makes scarves, gloves and other clothes and sells them over the internet at www.jolly-fellows.de Above: Pam Gardner, of Milton Keynes, Northamptonshire, has at least six jumpers and cardigans made from her pet Old English sheepdogs. She says they are warm and soft, similar to jumpers made from Angora goats' wool. Mrs Gardner, who charges £11 to turn 100g of dog or cat hair into wool, says the conversion is too labor-intensive to be anything more than a hobby. She has made wool from about 30 breeds of dog, including alsatians and chow chows, and had about 200 customers. Above: Betsy Willis first used the fur of Kara, to knit her husband's sweater in 1990. Mrs Willis, 71, said she had the idea after seeing a picture of Princess Diana wearing a dog fur stole at Crufts. She said: "Kara was a pedigree Samoyed. She was so posh, if she could have talked she'd not have spoken to the likes of us. "We found out from the breeders we got the pups from that it was possible to use their coat for clothes. "It is the most amazing stuff. It's like mohair but more lightweight and more soft, and the more you wash it, the more soft and fluffy it gets." Mrs Willis added: "People are surprised when they find out we're wearing dog wool clothes. Some think it's disgusting and ask how we can do it, but it seems very normal to us." Even now, Mrs Willis has enough hair left over to make a new jumper, and it has been sent to a friend in Derby to be spun. Wanna try it yourself?

If you're torn between wearing fur and loving animals, the dispute has already been settled. The pictures by French photographer Erwan Fichou prove that you only have to love your pet long enough... to be able to wear it later! The dog owners in the photos would pet their buddies so much that they could collect enough of their fur to spun it into yarn and knit a sweater from it.

La chakchouka est un plat d’origine méditerranéenne qu’on réalise généralement l’été avec des légumes du soleil. Pas question de se passer de ce plat si savoureux une fois la saison automne/hiver installée. Pour une chakchouka savoureuse j’ai réuni des légumes de saison : butternut, poireaux et champignons de paris. Seule entorse avec la purée de tomate en brique mais un gain de temps assurément. Pour la gourmandise émiettez de la feta et parsemez de quelques graines de courge pour le croquant.
En Italie, on trouve ces drôles de saucissons truffés de fruits secs et de noix dans certaines épiceries fines. On le grignote en fin de repas et il s’offre joliment ficelé et enveloppé dans du papier parchemin ou… de boucher.

Bonjour bonjour ! Il y a quelques semaines, je vous proposais sur le blog mon agenda 2021/2022. Un agenda conç
Croquant et pein de saveurs et croquant, le chou chinois se prête à de nombreuses recettes. Pourtant, il n'est pas simple de savoir comment le préparer. Quelle cuisson adopter ? Comment l'accompagner ? Laissez-vous guider pour savoir comment cuisiner le chou chinois à la perfection.
Chou entier farci et rôti dans une cocotte au four
Dans la famille des légumes mal-aimés, je demande... le chou frisé ! Recette de Dominique de Nantes, je réalise ces petits choux farcis chaque hiver. Ils remportent un franc succès, petite de 6 ans incluse. Je remplace la chair à saucisses par un mélange de bœuf et veau haché. Un vrai régal ! Le montage des choux est très rapide grâce à la technique du ramequin (voir les photos ci-dessous). La recette se suffit à elle-même mais vous pouvez accompagner le plat d'un coulis de tomate par exemple. Et bien entendu varier la farce à volonté. Choux farcis au four de Dominique Ingrédients (pour 4 personnes) : - 1 chou frisé - 600 g de farce à votre convenance (porc, veau, bœuf, poulet, légumes...) - 4 échalotes émincées - 4 gousses d'ail pressées - 4 càs bombées de riz cuit - 200 g de lardons fumés - huile d'olive Prélevez une vingtaine de feuilles de votre chou puis plongez-les dans une grande cocotte d'eau bouillante salée pendant 5 minutes afin de les blanchir. (Vous pourrez réaliser une poêlée avec le reste de votre chou.) Rincez-les sous l'eau froide pour arrêter la cuisson. Veillez à bien égoutter les feuilles dans une passoire. Mélangez les échalotes, l'ail et le riz cuit à votre farce. Salez, poivrez. Je revêts un gant en polyéthylène pour malaxer la farce. Préchauffez le four à 180°C. Pour confectionner les choux, j'utilise un ramequin. Je le tapisse de chou, garnis le centre puis rabats les bords. Méthode pratique et rapide ! Déposez les choux dans un plat au four (j'ai pu en faire 16). Arrosez-les d'un peu d'huile d'olive. J'ajoute toujours un peu d'eau au fond du plat (ou mieux : du vin blanc ou du bouillon) pour éviter que les choux ne deviennent trop secs. Enfournez. Au bout de 45 minutes, ajoutez les lardons sur les choux et poursuivez la cuisson 15 minutes. C'est prêt !
