This week mine was homemade soda. Fermented sodas, citric acid + bicarbonate sodas, different juices and flavors like lime + lemon + cherry and pomegranate or mango peach or cola (homemade knock off)

The Walloon language! The historical and almost extinct language of the region I’ve been living in for some time but from which I don’t really have ancestry (more from the other region of the country).
The language has a really bad reputation (it’s supposedly rude, so different from city to city that it’s useless to communicate, etc.) Almost nobody is left speaking it and the overwhelming majority thinks its good thing.
It’s fascinating, there’s a small group of people trying to standardize it. There’s some drama because the other promoters of the language are academics who want to preserve the local varieties, the opposite to standardization.
