Feast in Helmsley Castle, England, 14th century AD (Philip Corke)

Feasts are made for laughter,
wine gladdens life,
and money meets every need.

לִשְׂחוֹק֙ עֹשִׂ֣ים לֶ֔חֶם וְיַ֖יִן יְשַׂמַּ֣ח חַיִּ֑ים וְהַכֶּ֖סֶף יַעֲנֶ֥ה אֶת־הַכֹּֽל׃

The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)
Book 21. Ecclesiastes 10:19ff (Eccl 10:19) [tr. NRSV (2021 ed.)]

Gesunde #Ernährung muss bezahlbar sein!

Bei meiner Veranstaltung wurden zentrale Ansätze der EU-Projekte #FEAST und #EAT vorgestellt, die zeigen, wie gesunde und nachhaltige #Ernährungssysteme gestaltet werden können.
