Évek óta sütöm a saját termesztésû paradicsomot, amit azután bámulatos sebességgel fogyasztunk el a kamrából. A gyerekek is szívesen visznek egy-egy üveggel egy jó kis spagettihez vagy akár pizzára. Fõleg Ökörszív paradicsomot termesztek, de mindig van két sor Lucullus (San Marzano) is, amit…

Welcome to the Accidental Travel Writer, where it's all about food, sports, and travel!
The first edition of "The Bitter Taste of Chocolate Lucullus" by Polish writer, Leopold Tyrmand (1920-1985), and not just any edition, but with his autograph! The book, the cover of which was very successfully designed by Jan Młodożeniec, was published in 1957. In Tyrmand's stories we find a mosaic from which we can piece together his entire life until now. A colorful and unusual mosaic. He described his war experiences, his fascination with sports, and reflected on human nature. But above all, he wrote about himself, and when writing about himself, he described the world around him.

Note Few leaders in history were as polarizing as Mithradates VI. He is admired for his intense determination and his seemingly boundless talents, and yet he is detested for his many acts of cruelty, some of which cannot be excused even if one takes into account the violent age in which he lived. There can be no question he was a military genius. He was one of Rome’s most formidable enemies, with Cicero rating him better than the Carthaginian general Hannibal, and second only to Alexander III among the Greek kings. It took three of Rome’s best generals – Sulla, Lucullus and Pompey the Great – to defeat Mithradates convincingly enough that he resorted to suicide. Mithradates came to power by arranging the murder of his mother, who was an unwanted regent, and he is credited with murdering other close family members and executing concubines rather than allowing them fall into enemy hands. He was so bitterly opposed to the Roman presence in Asia Minor that in a single night he ordered the murder of more than 80,000 Romans and Latins in residence there. Most of these victims, no doubt, were innocent of any crime against Mithradates, and could hardly have deserved the death sentence they received. NAC74, 289
