Scotch pancake-wrapped buffalo sausage with homemade syrup

For the homemade syrup
2) In a medium mixing bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder. Slowly add it to the wet ingredients, a little at a time, stirring gently after each addition. Once all the dry ingredients have been added, stir a few more times to combine, but do not overmix. It's okay to have a few small lumps.
3) Refrigerate the batter for at least 2 hours, but it's best to let it sit overnight.
4) Preheat a skillet to medium-high. Spoon about 3 tablespoons of batter per scotch pancake onto the skillet.
5) Cook on one side until bubbles appear and the edges are dry, about 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook on the other side until the bottom is golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes.
6) Remove the pancakes to a plate and place in the oven or warmer to keep warm. Repeat to make 8 pancakes.
7) Place the buffalo sausages on the skillet and cook until no longer pink in the middle, turning as they cook so that they brown evenly, about 3 minutes. If cooked too long, buffalo sausage gets very dry.
8) Place a buffalo sausage on top of each pancake. Roll the pancake around the sausage. Top with Tally's homemade syrup.
For the syrup:
1) In a large saucepan, combine the water, salt, sugar and golden syrup. Place on the hob over medium-high heat and bring to a slow boil. Continue boiling at medium heat for about 1 1/2 hours until the syrup turns amber-coloured.
2) Remove the syrup from the heat and add the maple flavouring. Ladle over the pancakes. The syrup is best served warm; it can be reheated on the stove or in the microwave.
Cook's Note: Buffalo sausage can be found in specialty food stores in the frozen section, or ordered through special mail-order businesses online.

an orange-red tinyspot of comatosity,
on my airless desk in this
sunbaked, stale aired classsroom,
she seemed unconscious, dead
until I prodded her, politely, with a left index finger. then tiny black
feeler feet emerged, moved,
weakly she pulled herself up my finger
like it was a rubber raft lifesaver in a rough ocean
floating wood in the debris
of her own mini Titanic, like
my finger was a lost & feared
gone forever friend she'd waited so long for,
she clung tenaciously to my
finger, roamed slowly its
surface as i lifted her tenderly
outside to air but
she held tight had to
prise her off & onto the
shrub-tree deep orange autumn
leaf outside Holley Hall suddenly
she flew. away.
glaring hot
12 noon shootout hot
beatdown hot
beat you down again, hot
in your face hot
make you fight your
grandmomma (& anyone else) hot
sticky hot
"disrespectful" hot
mean hot
ugly hot
sweltering, blistering, endless
pointless hot
vengeful hot
stultifying enervating
repressive hot
oppresive hot
day long morning sunrise to 12 midnight gotcha still
sweating hot
don't you dare turn off that
a/c at 3 a.m. hot
& I will kill myself for some relief (in hell) but
it's too hot to die, hot.

text: Pubdate: Sun, 16 Jun 2013 Source: Day, The (New London,CT) Copyright: 2013 The Day Publishing Co. Contact: http://www.theday.com/ Details: http://www.mapinc.org/media/293 Author: Karen Florin SYNTHETIC MARIJUANA CASES NEW TO AUTHORITIES It's a new chapter in the War on Drugs. Police, courts and the state forensic laboratory say they are dealing with more cases involving synthetic cannabinoids and other designer drugs since the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection passed regulations banning fake marijuana, bath salts and salvia last year. The case of Souhail S. Elkhoury, owner of Corey's Petroleum convenience stores in Groton and East Lyme, is one of the first synthetic marijuana cases on the New London Superior Court's major crime docket. Paul J. Narducci, a senior state's attorney who has handled countless drug cases over the years, said he would be meeting with Drug Enforcement Administration and state Department of Consumer Protection officials soon to bring himself "up to speed" on the new regulations and the relatively new products. In the Elkhoury case, Groton Town Police and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service said they seized 102 packets of synthetic marijuana from the Corey's food mart at 208 Route 12 in January after an undercover patrolman made three controlled buys of products called "Scooby Snax," "OMG" and "WTF." Elkhoury, 57, of Greenville, R.I., who is also known as "Khoury" and "Cory," was charged with three counts each of possession of a controlled substance, accessory to sale of a controlled substance and possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell. He was charged also with money laundering, avoiding tax on the sale of cigarettes and conspiracy to sell a controlled substance. Convenience stores and smoke shops started selling packets of green, leafy herbal products as a legal substitute for marijuana about 10 years ago, claiming they could produce the effects of marijuana without the presence of its active ingredient, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). "The idea was, you didn't have to have marijuana to get a marijuana high," according to Robert H. Powers, director of controlled substances and toxicology at the Connecticut Forensic Laboratory. But researchers discovered in 2008 that the chemical compounds added to the dried leaves of legal herbs were related to marijuana. Powers said the synthetic cannabinoid products likely are manufactured within the United States. The DEA has classified several of the cannabinoids, with names such as JWH-018, JWH-073, JWH-081, as controlled substances, saying the long-term physical and psychological effects of these substances are unknown but potentially severe. Connecticut last year joined 38 other states that had banned the products. Authorities warn that use of the products can result in psychotic behavior, especially among those with psychotic disorders. Unlike marijuana, which has both stimulant and depressive effects, the synthetic cannabinoids don't have the depressive, or calming effects, so users can get an uncontrolled stimulant effect, according to Powers. Manufacturers of synthetic marijuana have continued to tinker with the products in an effort to make them legal. "If one specific structure is made illegal, if I can change the structure a little bit, I'm now selling my product legally," Powers said. "Because our drug laws evolved out of pharmaceutical patent law, we consider a very small change to the molecule to be a completely different molecule. There are attempts being made to address that at the state level." Defense attorney Carmine J. Giuliano, who is representing Elkhoury and other convenience store owners charged with selling synthetic marijuana, said he would be consulting with toxicologists as the cases move forward. He said he has just started to review the chemist reports that the state's attorney's office provided with Elkhoury's case file and it's not clear whether the products are illegal. "It seems kind of weird, if all these places are selling the stuff," he said. "It's sort of like baseball players who are one step ahead of the Major League with steroids. Figure out how to change the formula and they pass the law." Undercover operation in Groton During the Elkhoury investigation, an undercover patrolman went to the Groton store three times with a concealed listening device and purchased packets of synthetic marijuana with recorded bills, according to an arrest warrant affidavit in the case. During the first visit, the officer purchased a glass smoking pipe, or "bowl," before asking the clerk if he had any "Scooby Snax." After he assured the convenience store clerk that he was a member of the U.S. Navy, not a police officer, the store clerk reached below the counter to retrieve a packet of "OMG" synthetic marijuana, handed it to the officer, and quietly told him to put it in his pocket, according to the affidavit. Sailors from the nearby Submarine Base had been banned in 2011 from Cory's and several other area stores that sold the designer drugs after the Navy instituted a zero tolerance policy for synthetic marijuana and other designer drugs. The undercover police officer returned to the store two weeks later and purchased rolling papers and a packet of "OMG," according to the affidavit. The clerk rung up the sale on an older model calculator-style register that doesn't record purchases. By the third visit, the clerk recognized the undercover officer "as a person interested in the purchase of synthetic cannabinoid products," according to the affidavit, and asked him whether he wanted big or small packets of the product. The same clerk, Majula Ranasinghe, was on duty during the raid and told the police that employees kept the synthetic marijuana under the counter and rang it up as nontaxable, according to the affidavit. Ranasinghe said Elkhoury delivered the products to the store and, when Ranasinghe questioned him about their legality, the owner told him not to worry because they were not illegal. Ranasinghe said he sold 20 to 25 bags of synthetic marijuana per shift. In addition to synthetic marijuana, police seized $24,522 in cash from the store's cash registers and drop safe, 13 packs of cigarettes with counterfeit Connecticut tax stamps and two cartons of cigars with no tax stamps. In conjunction with the Cory's investigation in Groton, East Lyme police and state police searched the Cory's Food Mart at 265 Flanders Road and spoke to the operators. In March, the police in East Lyme raided another local convenience store, Sergey's Smoke Shop at 170 Flanders Road, following a two-month investigation. They said they seized 686 packets of synthetic marijuana, which they said had a street value of $10,290, and $1,254.62 in cash. Resident State Trooper Sgt. Bill Blanchette said officers are preparing an arrest warrant in that case and that police will be watching for any other activity involving the substances. "I'm hoping East Lyme is now a synthetic marijuana-free place," Blanchette said. More charges filed There have been a handful of arrests in the region related to synthetic marijuana. New London police raided the Sams Food/Ravi Petro convenience store at 290 Broad St. in February and said they seized about 500 packages of "K2," another brand of synthetic marijuana. They charged store clerk Sunny Singh, 26, of 150 Broad St., Apt. 2, with operating a drug factory, possession of a dangerous weapon, possession of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell and possession of controlled substance within 1,500 feet of a school. In addition to seizing the drugs, police said they confiscated more than $34,000 in cash, about 1,000 items of drug paraphernalia, narcotics packaging materials, cutting agents, scales and concealment devices. Police said they also seized illegally copied DVD movies and illegal weapons, including brass knuckles and switch blade knives. Singh, who posted a $25,000 bond, is due in New London Superior Court June 27. State police said in February that they seized a large amount of K2 from the Best Way gas station in Jewett City. The store owners, Sam Rita, 52, and Santosh Mahey, 46, both of Colchester, each were charged with illegal possession of narcotics, tampering with evidence and conspiracy to commit a crime. Their cases are pending in Superior Court in Norwich. In March, state police arrested Vipin S. Patel, 55, of 112 Brown Ave., Jewett City, in Brooklyn and located 21 pounds of synthetic marijuana in his minivan with a street value of $16,000. His case is pending in the Windham Judicial District. - --- MAP posted-by: Matt

2014 Holiday Gift Guide: Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Handhelds, Women, Men, Techies, Under $250, Under $500,
The next item in Gear Live's 2014 Holiday Gift Guide is the Kindle Paperwhite. Why? well, as great as e-ink readers have been (and they've been pretty stellar,) since the original Amazon Kindle was released, their one tragic flaw has been that they become pretty useless in the dark. You either simply can't read them, or have to use a small light attachment accessory. Enter the Kindle Paperwhite. Amazon has designed what we consider to be the best e-ink reader to hit the market.

Thad and Junior (18 months)
This picture is of my father's father, Thad J. Watson, Sr., with my father's eldest brother, Thad J. Watson, Jr. For those of you who are wondering, the "J" is only an initial; it's not a shortened version of any name.
My grandmother, Nanny, and I moved this picture from one photo album to another when I was a teenager. We left the caption, written by my grandmother, which stated that Thad Jr. was 18 months old at the time the picture was taken. That would make the approximate date of the photo June 1944, just two months before my grandfather died in a bombing run over Czechoslovakia, and about five months before the birth of my father.

3. Harassing other members of the site may result in a ban.
Harassment includes (but is not necessarily limited to) the following:
The Reason:
Nobody likes being harassed, we'd like everyone to have a fair shot at
getting along on Atheist Nexus and nobody should be subjected to an
undue amount of hassle. We'll go over this one slowly as it is a
matter of contention among members.
First, note that harassment is going to be one of those issues in
which the mod is going to have to make a decision based on what they
can see is happening using their judgment. It is another instance
where "good faith" and "Intent" will be leaned upon. The body of the
rule even mentions that items in the list of "things that are
harassment" are not the only ways to harass people.
a. Ad hominem attacks and name calling.
The long and the short of it is this: if people avoid calling others
names, they'll never get in trouble for calling others names.
Attacking people's character in order to discredit their ideas falls
under the same heading. If one takes exception to a person's ideas,
they should attempt to discredit those ideas in a civil manner. If
that person is acting foolish, their actions will speak for
themselves. Opinions about their IQ, the likely chemical composition
of their brain, the legitimacy of their parentage and other such
things are immaterial to discourse and hurtful.
b. Blatantly bigoted or derogatory statements or remarks about
someone's race, gender, disability, age or sexual orientation.
Keep it to yourself. The freedom to talk down to other races, genders, disabilities, ages
and/or sexual orientations, can be found plenty of other places on the
internet. This isn't one of them.
c. Posting any contents of private conversations without the expressed
consent of all people involved.
Things written in private should stay private. The exception to this
is if someone is making a report of another member harassing them in
public, in which case it is acceptable to forward messages on to the
moderation staff. It is never appropriate to publicly post the
contents of a private message without the senders permission.
d. Disclosing private information about a fellow member without their
expressed consent.
This rule is meant to protect people from being harassed via other
mediums or in their-day-to-day lives. Giving away another user's e-
mail address, phone number, home address, place of work or even real
name can be potentially harmful to that person, especially considering
the nature of this website and the prevailing attitudes toward
atheists and non-believers in most places around the world.
e. Posting inappropriate or private pictures of fellow members without
their expressed consent.
What is going to be inappropriate or private is sort of going to be up
to the person who's pictures is being posted. The onus is on each of
us to obtain permission before posting pictures of other members.
f. Making negative threads targeting fellow members.
There is a fine line between targeting a person and targeting an idea
which has been associated with a person with such vitriol or passive
aggression that it becomes indistinguishable from a personal attack.
We'd like the free flow of ideas to remain free, and clamping down on
what people can and can't say is always a dangerous game--a game we'd
rather not have to play at all. However, our lack of action on matters
of harassment because of our respect for the freedom of speech is
causing a lot of problems.
On the one hand, as atheists, we have a great appreciation for ideas.
On the other hand, we typically expect those ideas to be based on
sound evidence and thinking. It's not wrong to challenge someone's
idea and it is not against the rules to upset someone. It is against
the rules to harangue them. Sometimes, people are wrong. Often times,
their minds can't be changed through argument. If it is evident that
no one is going to change their mind, continuing to attempt to
convince them or knock down an idea that has presumably already been
knocked down is accomplishing nothing. People are not obliged to
defend their ideas if they don't want to. They are also not obliged to
be right, nor are they obliged to acknowledge when other people are
right. These are all lovely, polite things, but they are not
obligations. Nobody has the right to persistently attempt to force
another person into a conversation they don't want to have.
By the same token, if a member takes exception to another person's
views and brings evidence and rational discourse to the table--that is
not harassment. Hounding people is. The difference will be up to the
moderators to decide. Their decisions need to be respected.
The Action:
If it is determined that a member is harassing another member,
depending on the severity, they will usually receive a warning to
stop. After that, they may be banned. There will no longer be a chain
of warnings because a particular offender has decided to simply switch
targets. People who chronically hassle other members will be banned.
The culture of mean-spirited confrontation is getting stale and--as it
has manufactured nothing of value--it's going to stop.
It is my hope the the dialogue here will become more dialectic and a
little less argumentative.

Move Over Banana Bread, Mango Bread's in Town
This may just be the perfect breakfast bread.
It's a tweaked version of Dorie Greenspan's (Baking: From My Home to Yours) dense, fruit studded mango bread. It's so good that it may even surpass my beloved Banana Bread with Toasted Coconut and Almonds. And that's saying something.
I first made it last winter when we had relatives visiting. It was polished off in two days, and there were only four of us. I have made it several times since, and it has consistently received stellar reviews. It's on my "go-to list" of recipes and will surely be on yours too once you try it.
What makes this mango bread so delicious? Creamy mango, chewy raisins, aromatic ginger, and crunchy cashews to start. It's a satisfyingly moist, highly textured, aromatic bread with just the right sweetness. The only hard part is stirring the batter which is stunningly thick. You think to yourself, this will never cook, but it does, perfectly, every time.
This mango bread tastes even better after it sits a day or two. So eat it plain, toast it with butter, or top it with tangy apricot marmalade. Any way you slice it, it's delightful.
Mango Bread with Raisins and Cashews
Serves 8-10
Print recipe only here.
3 large eggs
3/4 cup canola oil
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
2 cups diced fresh mango
3/4 cup moist, plump mixed raisins, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup cashews, coarsely chopped
grated zest of 1 lime
Center a rack in the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 1/2- x- 4 1/2- inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Place the pan on two regular baking sheets stacked one on top of the other to prevent the bottom of the bread from over baking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and oil.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry, and using a spatula, mix until well blended. The dough will be very thick, but as Dorie says, "persevere, it will come together." Stir in the ginger, mango, raisins, cashews, and lime zest. Scrape the batter into the pan, and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
Bake the bread for 1 hour 15 min. to 1 hour 30 min., or until the top is golden brown and a cake tester or thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean. (If the bread is getting too brown on top, cover it loosely with a tinfoil tent). Transfer the pan to a rack and cool for 5 minutes before running a knife around the sides of the pan and unmolding. Invert and cool to room temperature right side up on the rack.

To thick to bake . . . you would think it doesn't work but somehow it does. Great recipe.
Wonderful photos Susan.

- Cynthia said...
Hmmmm, mango bread...
Would you be able to say what variety of mango you used? I'm only asking because we get different varieties here and some will definitely not be able to withstand baking, in term of imparting their flavour. I mean like basil, long cooking it loses it's flavour.

This sounds so yummy. I love mangos, I'll have to try this one!

Her posture stands out because for so many women, when they sit, they cross. People tend to mimic each other's body language during a conversation, especially if they're trying to connect with one another. But even when Kagan sits across from Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who has her legs crossed at the knees, Kagan keeps both feet planted firmly on the ground. Her body language will not be bullied into conformity.Yeah, we were taught, strictly, that a woman should cross her legs at the ankles and only at the ankles.
She does not cross her legs at the ankles either, the way so many older women do.
Instead, Kagan sits, in her sensible skirts, with her legs slightly apart, hands draped in her lap.Here's the class picture from my kindergarten, around 1957:
Looks like the girl at the far left has Supreme Court potential. And I don't.
I've displayed that picture before on the blog, back in 2006. From that post:
I think it's cute that they got nearly all the girls to cross our legs at the ankles, which was considered the only proper way for a female to cross her legs.

When is the last time you told you your wife, husband, girlfriend you love them? If you love someone, you go out of the way to make the person feel comfortable around you. How do you do that?

In the workplace, love and support of colleagues sustains togetherness. 25 Inspirational Quotes For Every Occasion 18 Absolutely Inspiring Friendship Quotes The Best Motivational Video You Will Ever See Love is kind. Love is patient. Love never fails. You love the other people for whom they are and not they offer you back in return for your love. 1. Where can you find love? Love is not on sale in the market place. You've been looking for love without success. According to Loretta Young, "Love isn't something you find. Love is something that finds you." loretta-young-quote-love-isnt-something-you-find-love-is-something-that 2. When you love someone, you do all it takes to maintain that euphoria feeling of affection. H.

"A flower cannot blossom without sunshine, and man cannot live without love," Max Muller said.

Aristotle couldn't have chosen a better description for love. Another way of echoing similar sentiments is that Love is two hearts that beat as one. aristotle-quote-love-is-composed-of-a-single-soul-inhabiting-two 8. You've been in love before. Forget about the fact not all lovers end up living happily ever after. How did love feel when it was fresh and cozy? Lao Tzu says, "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." I couldn't agree more. What about you? lao-tzu-quote-being-deeply-loved-by-someone-gives-you-strength-while 9. "I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love." No one knows this better than Mother Teresa. The reason you're hurting is because you don't love enough. Love is giving without expecting returns. mother-teresa-quote-i-have-found-the-paradox-that-if-you-love 10. Imagine life without love? That would be no life at all. "Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life," Leo Buscaglia said. How sad that you miss out enjoying this free gift by denying you and others love. Give someone love today through kind deed. leo-buscaglia-quote-love-is-life-and-if-you-miss-love-you 11. Have you ever considered what kept Jesus Christ on that rugged cross of Calvary? It was not the nail prints but his love for sinners. Christ alone is able to say with authority, "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another," Jesus Christ commanded his disciples. Do you love enough to lay your life down for someone? jesus-christ-quote-a-new-command-i-give-you-love-one-another 12. "Spread love everywhere you go.

"The sweetest of all sounds is that of the voice of the woman we love," Jean de la Bruyere said. jean-de-la-bruyere-quote-the-sweetest-of-all-sounds-is-that 14. True love clears the clutter of confusion in relationships. You've no secrets, no distance between two people who love and cherish one another. The two of you are like two sides of the same coin because, "Everything is clearer when you're in love," John Lennon said. john-lennon-quote-everything-is-clearer-when-youre-in 15. How can you know that your partner loves you? "The best proof of love is trust," Joyce Brothers said. Trust is the foundation of a strong relationship. If you can trust the other person with your heart why wouldn't you trust him/her with everything else? joyce-brothers-quote-the-best-proof-of-love-is 16. Life is full of pressure from all sides. The economy, the contemporary success image are some of the pressure points. No one cares that you've a fat bank account, live in a mansion and drive the latest car model. If you miss out on love, none of these things matter. "What the world really needs is more love and less paper work," Pearl Bailey said. pearl-bailey-quote-what-the-world-really-needs-is-more-love-and 17. Love does not blossom unless it is cultivated and nurtured in a good environment. "Love is the flower you've got to let grow," John Lennon said. In case you doubt, look around at nature to get perfect object lesson on love from the growth of flowers in your backyard, house. john-lennon-quote-love-is-the-flower-youve-got-to-let 18. You know you're in love because you feel it in your heart and it warms the blood in your veins. However, the same feeling of love can't be whisked away with the tap of a finger. Now you know the reason you've difficulty letting go when the relationship breaks up. You want to move on but don't know how because, "Love is like war: easy to begin but very hard to stop," H. L. Mencken said. h-l-mencken-quote-love-is-like-war-easy-to-begin-but 19. True love knows no bounds, resides in the depth of the heart where logic and reason do not penetrate. You cannot reason out love any more than you can prove life ceases in the event of death. If you agree with this proposition you conclude with Blaise Pascal's observation that, "Love has reasons which reason cannot understand." blaise-pascal-quote-love-has-reasons-which-reason-cannot

Beijing Design Week a Tortona 2012
Slow Seating: Contemporary Chinese Design in Tortona Milan Design Week 2012
Beijing Design Week All this happened (more or less) as they ushered in the Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Rho / Pero (Mi) and the exhibition "Slow Seating: Contemporary Chinese Design", in Zona Tortona. Over 60 works collected by the curator of the exhibition, Zhu Xiaojie, vice chairman of China Furniture Design Committee and president of Shanghai Furniture Design Committee, to launch a message taste reconciling: the world beyond the prejudices of furniture industry in China. Village Mountains In the spring of 2012, the annual Milan Design Week will be opened. The top Chinese furniture brand CAMERICH will attend the event with its concept product named "Village Mountains". At the INTERNI LEGACY Exhibition, CAMERICH will share with the international famous designers its exploration into new design trends and notions. He and Zhang Mu Oian | Book Chair The goal is clear: to entice people to read while sitting at rest. Book Chair focuses on the combination of the two functions of display and storage of books. The structure of the Book Chair is inspired by the play of cardboard constructions, easier to assemble and work than circular shapes. Shell Chair Shell Chair combines the structure and function in an organic way, interpreting the chair as an object capable of harmoniously to meet the needs of nature | Designer Nip-Khiu Lien Unveiled at Milan Design Week 2012, Chinese architect Zhang Ke, Sinuous curves evoke the imagery of the western mountain landscape forming the seat-backs and separate niches for diverse seating experiences. Derived from ancient Chinese tales of the water dragon, the form of the piece represents a physical interpretation of the dragons' usually invisible movement.Bruce Liu | Bodhidharma – saddle chair Bruce Liu is drawn from the analysis of categories of a 'new wisdom of the East ". The designer follows a "storyline" that represents a link between different cultures, and not merely spread only "Chinese elements". A lexicon chosen to elicit different reactions and reflections in each party. Zhang Lei | Piao-Paper Chair The Chair Piao was exposed at Wuhao Design Week 2012. The chair is made with layers of paper glued to one another - the technique used traditionally in China to create paper umbrellas. Coin Chair Zhu Xiaojie (Xiaojie study) has created the Coin Chair. Light and elegant, inspired by the circular of the Ming Dynasty chairs and expresses the ancient Chinese philosophy of "esteno circular four-sided". Harmony sofa series Utilising acrylic plastic, wood and upholstery, this mix-and-match from the organic ER series designed by Wen Miao offers a real/surreal sensibility. There's a long history of "ponderings on the object" in Chinese scholarly pursuits. There are designers trying to reconnect with that by reinserting philosophy into design. Lunar Chair Chen Darui reveals a strong personality with his pieces: Lunar Chair, Kaleidoscope River and snow. Drinking rainbow High stool, whose base is made of a porcelain Chinese vase, tradizionalmenteusato for branches of plum blossoms | Designer: You Chen, ceramist and designer Bamboo Elegance Divan Design Chunzai designers, so the chair, the essential object in the home of China, becomes the nifty trick to show the face of creative Asian country. The invitation to sit reflects the need, increasingly felt in China, to restore a link with traditional methods and scenarios, plunged into a crisis from engulfing productive race. Work nº1 The project was curated by renowned Chinese designer Zhu Xiaojie, and shows us some new face from the asiatic giant. In words of Mr. Zhu, whom selected over 60 Chinese designers to reflect upon the significance of the chair, theme of the exhibition, as an object apt for meditation & rest. "Chairs are symbols of "home". Reunion Chair by: Beijing Rong Lin Shi Jia Co. Ltd. "In chinese culture round table suggest a family's reunion. Table and chairs inspired by the shape of buddhism pagoda."Designed by SHAO Fan. ""Thus I make a new realtionship I called objects which represent this relation ship "art works". Infatuation makes you can control your imagination brings changes, but changes can never been controlled. Adoration and abandon, commemoration and derission." Nathan Liu | Injection Chair Feng Liu is known for its playful approach to the design and creation of 'sculptures' interiors. He coined the word 'Kidult', a contraction of 'kid' boy 'adult', which emphasizes the importance of rediscovering the innocence of children and their simple pleasures. Hou Zhengguang | Three walkers, tea table and stool A saying of Confucius says: The three people walking down the street, at least one is my teacher. The organic shape of the pieces comes from the swollen coil units, which perform multiple functions and can be assembled freely. Song Tao | Bamboo Tea Table The design of Song Tao aims to revive traditional Chinese culture with modern design furniture that goes in tracing their roots and the Chinese mind. The design of Song Tao aims to revive traditional Chinese culture with modern design furniture that goes in tracing their roots and the Chinese mind. Bob Chen | Three-leg stool The surface of the 'three-legged stool' is made of durable trunks and processed according to traditional techniques, to maintain the original feel and spirit of the trunk.The work is made by combining techniques of metalworking. This combination is intended to allow a debate on the tactile and visual perceptions, on the scale, technique, time and quality, so as to convey the philosophy and attitude to life Touchfeeling. Yun - From Yuhang The Yun by Yuhang tray is made with bamboo paper from the Yuhang province in China (the same place where the design company is based) following an ancient production process. The rigid shape has been achieved using the natural qualities of the bamboo fiber without any additives. From Yuhang This is a platform to showcase Chinese designers in the Netherlands, to promote Chinese creativity in the Netherlands and to foster mutual cooperation and collaboration between Dutch and Chinese Creative industries. Since our establishment in 2001, we have been working hard to promote environmental friendly products: non-woven products.

Help Me Celebrate - A Giveaway
My 200th post snuck up on me! Custom dictates a giveaway, so I'd like to do a small amount of good with mine. You all know how impressed I was with the work being done at the Sala Bai Hotel School in Cambodia. I have five copies of the cookbook that was written to raise funds for the school. I will give away 1 book for every 100 people who leave a comment here - up to 500 comments. It's for a good cause. I hope you'll participate. I will do a random drawing on Saturday, April 25th and post the winners immediately after the drawing around 9:00AM PST.

I am always up for a celebration. Looks like a good book!

OK in case I don't win :) I would love to know how I could get a copy. My husband and I are obsessed with Cambodian food from our time in Cleveland (little known fact: Cleveland has great international food, including one of the only totally authentic and amazing Cambodian restaurants probably in the entire midwest, except maybe Minneapolis) and we have been really saddened at the lack of Cambodian cookbooks out there. None of the ones we own has our favorite dish, a curry that I can barely remember the name of at this point but I know I would recognize it if I saw it! But at any rate, I am always looking to add to the Cambodian part of my SE Asian cookbook collection (Vietnamese and Thai especially being much easier to find).
Anyway congrats on the... I just realized I am not sure what you are celebrating? one year of your blog? Whatever it is, congrats! :)

Mary: thanks for the link. Stephanie in Ohio: it is on Lorain Ave on the west side of Cleveland... I want to say in 13000-14000 range. It is called Phnom Penh. It is possibly my favorite restaurant ever and I have been known to drive long distances out of my way to go back.

Today was stocks and soups day in my cooking class. There will be much more on that later, but first, a quick post and recipe.
Last night was closet cleaning out time.
Actually, it's always closet cleaning out time at my place. This time, the cleaning extended to the fridge and pantry. I used up four cans of black beans, a can of crushed tomatoes, a bunch of onions and garlic, and some labne from the fridge.
Voilà – soup.
Black bean soup with cumin labne
The inspiration for this soup came from Smitten Kitchen's own black bean soup with toasted cumin crema. I ditched the peppers, used canned beans instead of dried, added tomatoes, and substituted labne for the crème fraîche. My soup is thinner and more brown in color (due to the tomatoes).
– olive oil
– 2 onions
– 3T chopped garlic (3-4 cloves)
– 1 T chopped chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (this was about a single chipotle pepper plus adobo sauce)
– 1 T (or more) cumin
– 1 C crushed canned tomatoes
– 4 15.5 oz cans black beans (I used Goya)
– 5-6 C water
– lime juice
– labne (thick middle eastern yogurt – similar to sour cream)
Prep. Chop onions and garlic. Finely chop chipotle. Drain beans and sprinkle with some baking soda (helps make them more digestible).
Cook. Saute onion in oil until brown, about 8-10 mins. Add garlic, chipotle (and all that adobo sauce), and spices. Cook over low-medium heat for another 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and water. Simmer about 15 minutes. Rinse the baking soda off the black beans, and dump them into the soup. After another 10 minutes, whizz with an immersion blender and add salt and lime juice to taste.
Top. Thin labne with some warm water and mix with cumin. Add a dollop of labne to the soup and sprinkle a little cumin on top.
