This is one of those rare gems, one that you would be forgiven for having to google to find its location!!! This is not a commercial destination, rather the undiscovered "Galapagos of Africa" – a volcanic wonderland replete with rare endemics. Tropical forests spill onto secluded beaches framed by turquoise oceans in a place that "time forgot", a place that is quiet, where people still walk and live the slow life.
Magnificent lost world offering fantastic beaches and jungle exploration
Hikes in the Principe Biosphere with volcanic spires and tropical rainforest
Excellent birding with an impressive number of endemics
Turtle nesting grounds
Distinctively West African with a strong Portuguese influence – totally different from East and Southern Africa
Historical plantations
The perfect beach destination after trekking for Lowland Gorillas in nearby Odzala
If you're thinking about a trip to this idyllic island please pop us a mail – we would love to help you to plan your dream São Tomé and Príncipe holiday.
A stunning tented villa lodge on the very edge of the ocean, surrounded by tropical rainforest. With weathered wood panelling and timber decks, the distinctive villas echo the style of the fishermen's huts that once stood at this spot.
The essence of Príncipe can be discovered at Roça. The farm is a celebration of the life, people and history of Príncipe. It is the perfect location from which to explore the island and the UNESCO declared Biosphere Reserve where you can climb volcanic mountains and discover rare endemics of the island.

Hi guys!! Happy Sunday!! I hope you are having a great weekend!
Today I have a swatch of F.U.N Lacquer – Evening Gown for you and then I did some nail art too. Check them out.
Evening Gown is a vampy purple linear holo and it is a part of their Summer 2014 Collection. It was easy to apply and it needed two coats for full opacity.
And look at the holo, it's coming out although I have no direct light in the photos. They are all taken in artificial diffused light. That's amazing!!
And the nail art
I did two accent nails and I used chevron vinyls to do the pattern. For the glitter chevrons I used F.U.N Lacquer – Edgy (H) which is not opaque at all, so I had to sponge it on with the make up sponge.
As you can see I did something different on my thumb. This time I put two vinyls on my nail to create little cubes that touch each other in corners.
It was hard to take a clear macro shot because of all the holo going on behind the glitter. But I think I managed to do it, so that you can see how it looks up close.
What do you think? I really like how the multi chrome glitter (which shifts from green to purple) gives an edge to this mani.
Thank you for reading and have a great rest of the weekend! xoxo

I start working with my first client next week as a freelance event manager, whoop whoop!
They're launching an event programme around technology innovations in retail, so it was great to be invited to the launch of the Flux Lounge last week.
Flux is an innovation lounge and space to explore and experience the latest cutting-edge technologies through hands-on interaction.
It's also a pretty cool event space managed by Blank Canvas who specialise in offering the events and creative industries new, exciting and unusual venues in London.
The emphasis with Flux Lounge is on using the latest technological innovations to convey a message, entertain or simply WOW in a way that no other event space can do.
I saw and experienced some fantastic technologies including the latest in touch screen, 3d printing, virtual reality and robotics and it's perfect space for product launches, pitches, conferences and receptions.
Here's what they offer for events:
- 1,500 sqft (total space)
- The latest technology available to hire
- In house programmers to create bespoke technology solutions
- Price option for all budgets
- Close transport links
- Catering and green room space on site
It would be wrong if I didn't mention Taste Studios who provided the catering on the day, they do a pretty mean Virgin Mojito!
Here are some pictures from the event:
If you're looking for something new, exciting and unique then I highly recommend you check out Flux Lounge as well as some of the other spaces that Blank Canvas offer in London. I'm look forward to checking more of them out myself over the next few months, watch this space.
Until next time #Eventprofs…

I preferred mozilla when the 'new tab' link was above the 'new window' link.n the RMB menu because I use tabs more than windows. Gentoo-1.2.1 has swapped them. However, the gentoo-mozilla-default-plugin-less-annoy
I discovered that the reason mozilla was segfaulting was related to the target X server being version 3.3.5. It worked fine on version 4.2.1. This is annoying after spending a week debugging X protocol at fairly low level, for the half of it without debugging symbols, in asynchronous mode. I also recompiled the whole system from source with a new gcc-3.2.2 compiler because 3.2.1 was spitting code that dereferenced 0x01, which traditionally segfaults anyway.
I have to upgrade one last system. It might be easiest to install the new OS on some random spare IDE drive and then just cp -arpv the whole show onto the live system after formatting / and /usr. That way I can do the upgrade with minimal downtime on the live system. I expect that I will defer this job for ages and ages. I usually do, but it's actually getting past the point of "It works so don't touch it", because it doesn't work any more. My requirements of my desktop have increased.
I still have 13 and a half computers to sell. (Any offers?) Occasionally I tell someone this and they take one or two away. The rest of the network is running beautifully on the new Iomega P405U rackmounts, which have run sweet as a nut and I'm very happy with. I'd still like a gigabit switch so I can actually do full video streaming, but that can wait.
Having run Gentoo on a P405U for about two weeks, then put the box in as user server and had it running for another two weeks, I think it's stable enough to use for my desktop and reduce my distribution spread. I think I unconsciously "spread risk" between distributions. The laptop and firewall are SuSE. The backup server is Slackware. The main user server is gentoo. The test server is Red Hat (which is awful). I do not run Debian, but that is not a deliberate decision. This also means that I have a wide range of distribution experience, which is useful. I must get some more BSD and Debian experience, probably by running them on one of the spare P405Us.
I just introduced my supervisor to valgrind.

17 Then the word of the Lord came to me: 18 "Son of man, the people of Israel have become dross to me; all of them are the copper, tin, iron and lead left inside a furnace. They are but the dross of silver. 19 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: 'Because you have all become dross, I will gather you into Jerusalem. 20 As silver, copper, iron, lead and tin are gathered into a furnace to be melted with a fiery blast, so will I gather you in my anger and my wrath and put you inside the city and melt you. 21 I will gather you and I will blow on you with my fiery wrath, and you will be melted inside her. 22 As silver is melted in a furnace, so you will be melted inside her, and you will know that I the Lord have poured out my wrath on you.'"
23 Again the word of the Lord came to me: 24 "Son of man, say to the land, 'You are a land that has not been cleansed or rained on in the day of wrath.' 25 There is a conspiracy of her princes[a] within her like a roaring lion tearing its prey; they devour people, take treasures and precious things and make many widows within her. 26 Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey; they shed blood and kill people to make unjust gain. 28 Her prophets whitewash these deeds for them by false visions and lying divinations. They say, 'This is what the Sovereign Lord says'—when the Lord has not spoken. 29 The people of the land practice extortion and commit robbery; they oppress the poor and needy and mistreat the foreigner, denying them justice.
30 "I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one. 31 So I will pour out my wrath on them and consume them with my fiery anger, bringing down on their own heads all they have done, declares the Sovereign Lord."

More Than Conquerors
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

LONDON (Reuters) - European shares hit five-month highs on Monday with cyclical stocks outperforming defensives, helped by hopes over a deal to end the U.S.-Sino trade war.
The pan-regional STOXX 600 index rose as much as 0.6 percent during the session to its highest level since Oct. 5 before paring some gains and ending up 0.2 percent on the day.
U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping could reach a formal trade deal at a summit around March 27 given progress in talks between the two countries, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.
"A deal between the two biggest economies would end the climate of uncertainty which has been detrimental for assets perceived as riskier, such as stocks," ActivTrades analyst Pierre Veyret said.
"However, traders have already priced in a potential agreement and this might increase the downside risks as many abide to the rule: 'buy the rumor, sell the news'," he added.
The STOXX 600 is up more than 11 percent so far this year and a Reuters poll last week has shown investors expect the index to end the year near its current levels.
Further weighing toward the end of the session was weaker-than-expected construction data from the United States that pushed Wall Street into negative territory.
Among top movers in Europe on Monday were shares in IAG , which hit a two-month low after the owner of British Airways and Iberia issued a clarification to say its 2019 free cash flow would be lower than last year.
Its shares fell 4.8 percent, leading fallers on the STOXX.
Shares in Nordea, the Nordic region's largest bank, fell 3.5 percent on allegations of money laundering aired on Monday by Finnish broadcaster Yle.
According to Yle, Nordea handled some 700 million euros ($790 million) in suspicious transactions between 2005 and 2017.
Nordea said it had no immediate comment.
Ted Baker ended higher after Ray Kelvin resigned as chief executive of the fashion retailer, seeking to allow the fashion brand he founded to move on from misconduct allegations stemming from his habit of hugging colleagues.
Elsewhere, Britain's Rotork fell 3.5 percent after disappointing earnings, while Swiss utility Alpiq shed 1.3 percent after reporting its fourth annual loss in five years as its hydropower and nuclear facilities again struggled.
Among top gainers were the shares of publisher Daily Mail & General Trust, which jumped 4.5 percent after announcing plans to return all of its shares in Euromoney Institutional Investor and 200 million pounds ($265 million) cash to eligible shareholders.
French perfumes maker Interparfums rose 4.4 percent after raising its full-year revenue guidance following a strong start to the year.

Review – Menstro Cup & Blossom Cup
I'm sorry I've not posted this sooner, I've been really busy. I was given the small and large Menstro Cups and Blossom Cups to try out.
I'm reviewing them both together because they are very similar cups, so I'll be referencing them together.
Menstro Cups
When I was first made aware of Menstro Cup, I thought it might have been the same as the Blossom etc. cups. Looking at them side by side, they are very similar but there are some differences.
I've attempted to show the length difference here…. the green lines are the same distance apart
The Menstro Cup has a longer stem with a slightly shorter body, which together means there is more stem on the Menstro Cup (14mm) than the Blossom (purple left 10mm) or the other (AliExpress) cup (centre 11mm)… but overall the cup isn't that much longer 65mm Menstro compared to Blossom 63mm.
I actually found that extra stem length to be very important! When I tried the Blossom Cup I found it a bit difficult to get a good grip on such a small stem. Especially with no grip rings (Although it appears the Blossom Cup now has grip rings). The AliExpress cup with the extra grip (which I assume is what the new Blossom Cups are like) was slightly better, but I still found it's not a lot of surface area to grip. The Menstro Cup definitely felt easier to grip, but still felt the same in wearing as the other 2 cups. So I appreciated this longer stem.
— I will point out that when I ordered the AliExpress cup, the listing showed a smooth stem the same as the Blossom Cup I have, and I bought it to see if they were the same cups as Blossom. But what I received was the grip stem version.
The Menstro does have a slight ridge, but does not have the lines in that ridge that the Blossom or AliExpress cup have. I didn't notice any difference in wearing, insertion or removal between the 3 cups.
The Blossom and AliExpress cups have measurement lines on the inside marked at 7.5mls and 15mls in what appears to be the same overall look (font). The Menstro has measrement lines at 10mls and 20mls and in a different font. The Menstro also has "MenstroCup" written on the outside, and the size and their logo on the inside. The measurement lines all look to be in the same location.
The listed diameter of the small Blossom is 42mm, I measured 43mm. The AliExpress cup listed 40mm, I measured 42mm. The small MenstroCup listed 43mm which is what I measured as well.
I tested the capacity of the small size cups. Blossom lists 20ml to airholes, AliExpress listed 15mls to airholes, Menstro listed 23mls. I measured 22-23mls to airholes on all 3 of them.
Using my "Squish Test" the Large Menstro and Blossom both squished to 28mm. The Small Menstro squished to 26mm, small Blossom 29mm, and small AliExpress 23mm. (I don't have a large in the AliExpress cup).
The body of the Menstro Cup is softer/squishier than the body of the Blossom, and feels a tiny bit softer in the body than the AliExpress cup. However I would assume that given the inconsistencies with Cheap Chinese cups listed on places like AliExpress (The cup I ordered had a different stem!), if you were to purchase one, there is no guarantee you'll have the same feeling silicone as the one I received.
I will admit, it's been a while since I tried these cups and I can't recall if there were any issues with opening up, so I will have to re-test them and edit this to comment on that. I assume by the fact I can't remember any issues, and they aren't super-soft, I think they were probably all fine.
Otherwise, I believe the only real difference is to do with the stems, and the fact the Menstro has proper branding. I personally liked the longer stem, as I felt it made the cup easier to use. I also would prefer a cup with branding on it, so I know it's been made specifically for a brand. Price-wise I believe Blossom and Menstro are about the same, but again I personally would pick a branded cup over a non-branded, even if I had to pay a little more.

Happy Friday! How was everyone's week? I spent mine in a flurry of indecision about today's blog post! It was written months ago and procrastinated because I thought about making it into a series. I love concrete so much! In the end I decided I just wanted to get it out of my drafts pile and out there.
Concrete – This versatile material is widely used in design, mostly in farmhouse and Industrial design but it can be adapted for all styles. Here are my favorite ways to use concrete in interior design:
Source: 1|2|3|4
This one is pretty obvious and the most common (and my favorite). When using concrete floors in residential design you need to consider things like how to make the space cozy with all that cool stone. Some options include heating elements embedded in the concrete as well as lots and lots of rugs. The great thing about concrete floors (besides their dope look) is their durability.
Source: 1|2|3
I love how streamlined and modern concrete countertops can look. Totally worth the maintenance. If you don't want to completely replace your current countertops or deal with cracking, you could consider skim coating your existing counters like this one from A Beautiful Mess.
Source: 1|2|3|4
Lighting is a fairly uncommon way that I see concrete used. I like it because it is a cool texture in an unexpected place.
Vingette: Brands like to use concrete as a surface to show off their products because of the subtle texture and neutral color. This was a spread shot by Studio Brinson for DBO Home both of which are brands I love.
For all of you instagram people and those who are interested in such things, stay tuned for a DIY of how to make a concrete surface like the above photo. And prepare to see plenty of Instagram posts against said surface…
In addition to Father's Day, Michael and I are celebrating 2 years of marriage this weekend with a kayaking trip at Turkey Run State Park! So this Irishwoman will be stockpiling sunscreen if you need her.

Thing Two's Bento
In the shortest bento strike in our home's history, Thing Two decided after two days of bagged lunches that he wanted packed bentos again. (Cause maybe they're cool after all…)
He's basically got the same thing as his sister today. Leftover spinach stuffed rigatoni, a couple of chicken meatballs with provolone and sun dried tomato, some fresh spinach with black olives, a strawberry, some grapes, sliced oranges a bit of celery, a container of ranch for the veggies and a couple of hershey kisses.

Have you ever taken a vitamin that gets stuck in your throat and then dissolves there, and you can taste the vitamin dust for the rest of the day? Man, that is the pits–the dusty, vitamin-tasting pits.
In other news, I ripped my palms doing toes to bar last Thursday, and they won't stop cracking/splitting. Even through NewSkin (which is from the fiery pits of hell itself), I think the combination of cold weather, constantly washing my hands, and repeated use of my hands is no match for these tears. The best part is that I'll randomly extend my hands and re-rip it doing stupid things like opening a door or twisting the lid off my Nalgene. Nothing like constantly bleeding palms.
Think of the germz.
I also did a great job of being a human this weekend. I went out of the house 3 (count 'em, 3!) times. Saturday was the first weekend without soccer and my friend Kristin had been out of town all week, so we decided to go participate in the gym's partner pumpkin "HalloWOD." Except, when we got there, the coach split us into guy/girl teams.
The one time I have a partner for the weekend WOD, I was forced to partner up with someone else. The WOD was pretty fun:
- BUY IN: 800 M Pumpkin relay (with the pumpkin overhead)
- 20 pumpkin burpees
- 20 pumpkin sit ups
- 15 pumpkin thrusters
- CASH OUT: 2 mins pumpkin Russian twists
I was pretty dizzy by the end with all those Russian twists, and I'm pretty sure my partner was sad he got paired with me. Sorry, brah, I wasn't planning on being with you, either.
Kristin and I went back that night for the gym's Halloween party, but we only ended up staying for about an hour, which was long before the cool people arrived and the party really started. I was too tired by 8:30. Old lady alert! Side note: Apparently I won the costume contest! Pretty impressive, considering I couldn't even make it to 9pm.
On Sunday, I joined my friend Amy for Taste of Atlanta. I managed to make it down there with minimal traffic anxiety (and the help of very nice cops), then we met up and tasted some pretty delicious stuff including an apple pie creme brulee with buttermilk whipped cream. That one made my day.
Look at me being all social and fun!
After that, Sean and I carved pumpkins and watched It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown on repeat. I know all the words. I have a problem.
How was your weekend? Any recommendations for palms that keep splitting?

This is despite 21% of companies believing they have faced significant risk due to third parties over the last 18 months, and 25% of those who shared financial impact data revealing losses of over £8m.
These costs were generated through a period of downtime, regulatory fines, and reputational damage, with firms that outsource processes and services exposing themselves to a plethora of threats.
MetricStream chief evangelist, French Caldwell, said: "It's clear that many enterprises are yet to grasp fully how vital risk management is, but businesses can no longer plead ignorance. They are responsible for the actions of their third parties and they will bear the brunt of any fallout.
"For example, if a business shares sensitive data with a third-party without checking if it has relevant cybersecurity, and that supplier suffers a data breach, under some rules the company could be liable.
"Not only will it suffer reputational damage, but new regulations such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation could see large fines imposed too."
The research involved a global survey of 40 organisations across 15 industries, including financial services, retail, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and insurance.
Nearly three-quarters of respondents admitted that they did not track fourth parties in any capacity, meaning they have no visibility past their immediate suppliers.
Caldwell said that as enterprises rapidly adopt Cloud services, entities that would have been third parties when services were managed in-house, become fourth parties, which are more difficult to monitor.
The findings from the survey also reveal that 48% of businesses still use office productivity software, suggesting an immaturity of the function.
"Companies must become more vigilant. That means monitoring the entire supplier and IT services ecosystem more frequently, and, based on associated levels of risk, establishing dedicated third-party risk functions and accountability with GRC technology that enables informed decisions," Caldwell added.

SAKHEE was a sensational winner in the 80th running of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe-Lucien Barriere at Longchamp yesterday afternoon.
And it was a double celebration for jubilant jockey Frankie Dettori, who was riding his 100th winner in group one races.
The Godolphin-trained winner came into the race with some expressing concerns over his stamina and ability to handle the rain-softened surface.
But Sakhee swept those concerns aside by romping to success in facile fashion, rewarding the large contingent of British racegoers that forced his starting price down to 2.2-1 on the pari-mutuel on the Paris track.
Always travelling sweetly close to the early pace, the winner was asked to take closer order as the runners turned into the home straight and the effect was immediate.
He swept into a sizeable lead with only home challenger Aquarelliste able to come out of the pack in pursuit.
In a different year, Aquarelliste might have been a clear-cut winner of the Arc de Triomphe but this was no ordinary performance by the winner, who triumphed by six lengths.
One length further in arrears, was 50-1 outsider Sagacity, who caught Golan for third place on the line. The Sagitta 2000 Guineas winner had been niggled by Kieren Fallon some way from the finish.
Dettori, the leading jockey at Longchamp for the last four years, received a rapturous ovation, and responded by blowing kisses at the crowd before giving his trademark standing dismount.
"This means a lot to me because this is one of the great races," he beamed. "This has been a very lucky track for me.
"It is six years since I won this race and I had forgotten what the feeling is like - I'm going to enjoy it".
In the run-up to the race, Godolphin and Dettori had been exuding confidence.
"We had no concerns about the ground, he has proved he is a very good horse," said Sheikh Mohammed, the founder of the Godolphin operation.
"We were confident as since York he has worked very well, he has been working like a giant.
"He is not yet in the same league as Dubai Millennium, but he is a very good horse.
"We will see how he comes out of the race but all options are open for him. He could go for the Breed-ers' Cup or the Dubai Champion Stakes."
Godolphin's British-based trainer, Saeed bin Suroor, hinted the latter option would be more likely.
"He could go for both races, but maybe he will run at Newmarket," he said.
"I still think that he is at his best over a mile and a quarter.
"We had to take our time with him, he had setbacks earlier this season, but we have always said that he is a good horse and he has proved himself."
Sir Michael Stoute, the trainer of Golan and Little Rock - who ran above himself to finish in sixth place in the big autumn race - was far from despondent.
"They have both run great races," he said.
"Little Rock handled the ground okay, but Golan was struggling in the last quarter-mile and I think he didn't quite get the trip in the ground."
Irish challenger Milan finished fast in fifth but never looked like being able to land a blow at the winner.
Rider Michael Kinane reported, "He ran a good race but the heavy ground was no help to him, he just struggled a bit on it.
"He stayed on very genuinely but he was never travelling at any stage."
But the day belonged to Dettori, who was trying to be modest, while lapping up the attentions of the crowd and hordes of fans and television crews who were surrounding him.
"I was just the passenger," he said. "It was so easy, he could have gone around another time.
"He was a great horse, a beautiful horse to ride and very uncomplicated.
"I always thought that he was going to win this race but all I had to do was point him in the right direction."

What is it?
It's a DB11; the model Aston Martin calls the most important car in its history. Personally, I think that's over-egging it slightly, but it's certainly up there with DBs 2, 4, 7 and 9 in its significance for the future health of this often troubled company.
We've now driven the 2016 Aston Martin DB11. Read the review here.
Many exotic car manufacturers have recently embraced the dark side of better than atmospheric induction and added turbochargers to their petrol engine, Porsche and Ferrari among them, but none more successfully than this. For a turbocharged engine, the noise and response of the DB11's motor is not good, it's a miracle. Of course, such an engine does not make a fine GT car, but it certainly sets it off on the right foot.
The DB11 is the most powerful model ever to bear the initials and in Aston road car history it's beaten for output only by the One-77 and its seven-digit list price. Its bonded aluminium structure and aluminium panels share a philosophy with Aston's old V/H platform strategy but nothing else. The 5.2-litre V12 motor is related in a similar way to the old 6.0-litre V12. Apparently its bore centre spacings are the same, but that's about it.

The Semiotic Engineering of Human-computer InteractioneBook - 2005
A theory of HCI that uses concepts from semiotics and computer science to focus onthe communication between designers and users during interaction.
In The Semiotic Engineering of Human-Computer Interaction, Clarisse Sieckenius deSouza proposes an account of HCI that draws on concepts from semiotics and computer science toinvestigate the relationship between user and designer. Semiotics is the study of signs, and theessence of semiotic engineering is the communication between designers and users at interactiontime; designers must somehow be present in the interface to tell users how to use the signs thatmake up a system or program. This approach, which builds on -- but goes further than -- thecurrently dominant user-centered approach, allows designers to communicate their overall vision andtherefore helps users understand designs -- rather than simply which icon to click.According to deSouza's account, both designers and users are interlocutors in an overall communication process thattakes place through an interface of words, graphics, and behavior. Designers must tell users whatthey mean by the artifact they have created, and users must understand and respond to what they arebeing told. By coupling semiotic theory and engineering, de Souza's approach to HCI designencompasses the principles, the materials, the processes, and the possibilities for producingmeaningful interactive computer system discourse and achieves a broader perspective than cognitive,ethnographic, or ergonomic approaches.De Souza begins with a theoretical overview and detailedexposition of the semiotic engineering account of HCI. She then shows how this approach can beapplied specifically to HCI evaluation and design of online help systems, customization and end-userprogramming, and multiuser applications. Finally, she reflects on the potential and opportunitiesfor research in semiotic engineering.

Bar Hopping in Back Bay
Yesterday was another night of roaming; this time in Back Bay in Boston. We started in the afternoon with a quick cocktail on the first floor of Bistro du Midi. We love windows overlooking the sidewalk and Public Garden.
Next, a stop at The Bristol Lounge in the Four Seasons Hotel. The tone and crowd at the Bristol can be hushed, as it was this late afternoon, or buzzing later in the evening. One of our favorite nights here was Christmas night a few months ago when the bar was packed with many friends who stayed in town for the holidays. The Bristol is popular amongst noted Bostonians – and yesterday was no different, with Joseph Kennedy III a few seats away. He didn't ask for our advice on his campaign which he just announced the day before.
We moved to Post 390 for a quick cocktail. The chef, Eric Brennan, is an old colleague (we both worked at the Four Seasons and Mistral) and a great chef. Guy Neil, the general manager, is really one of the nicest guys in world. The bar was packed with the post-work crowd. There's a big bar downstairs and a roaring fire to warm us up on the cool day. A smaller bar is upstairs, when we occasionally go to hide out.
We were so close to Mistral, the we had to swing by for dinner. Dan had a craving for their renowned tuna tartare with crispy wontons, ginger and soy. I started with the French onion soup with a towering gruyere pastry crust. We then shared the Black Burgundy Truffle Macaroni with Madeira and Parmesan, which was worth every calorie – not that we try to count on nights like this.

FODMAP Diet
FODMAP is an acronym used to describe a group of dietary carbohydrates that can be poorly absorbed in the small intestine and rapidly fermented by bacteria to produce gas. This gas production can occur in the small and/or large intestine and lead to bloating, pain, nausea, diarrhea and/or constipation in many people.
It has been suggested that some individuals may be more sensitive to these poorly absorbed carbohydrates. Individuals who may benefit from the low FODMAP diet include those with irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and celiac disease.
FODMAPs stands for Fermentable Oligo-Di-Monosaccharides and Polyols
Examples of FODMAPs include:
Fructose (in excess) found in certain fruits, honey, and high fructose corn syrup
Lactose: milk and milk products
Fructans: wheat, onions, garlic, and inulin
Galactans: beans, lentils, legumes such as chickpeas
Polyols: such as sorbitol and mannitol found in peaches, nectarines, mushrooms and often added as artificial sweeteners
To ensure success, it is recommended you seek guidance from a Registered Dietitian who is experienced in the delivery of the low FODMAP diet approach. The dietitian will ensure that your diet remains nutritionally adequate and you will be provided with suitable food alternatives. It is suggested that the low FODMAP diet be tried for 2 to 6 weeks followed by review by the dietitian, who will then advise on which foods can be reintroduced into your diet.

It was Thanksgiving day back in 2002. I was only 23 years old and my life forever changed on that day. I had a placental abruption and Brendan was born at 33 weeks. He lost oxygen during delivery due to incompetent care but was a fighter and turned 17 this year. My journey in life over the past 17 years took many turns I was not expecting but I try to stay strong and have my husband by my side even when I am not.

Enjoying the Summer~
Brendan started riding his power wheels again. He calls it his go cart. He kept asking for a go cart for his last birthay but we decided on something a bit slower and with two seats. When we surprised him with this he was so happy and yelled "A Go Cart"!!!!!... so at least we made him happy!
His driving is ten times better this summer. He was stearing it all on his own. He drove on the road and I barely had to help him. Even his step sister was impressed. Our mailbox is across the street and Brendan likes to drive to go get it but he ended up driving too far down the road and all the sudden he turned around perfectly in the middle of the road. I asked him what was he doing and he replied I forgot to get the mail and parked the car right in front of the mailbox. I was so impressed! I even let him drive around the yard without walking next to him and he did AWESOME! He did crash into lawn chairs once but with some yelling he didn't do it again. He drove over this huge rock we have in our yard which freaked me out. I was running towards him yelling Bren don't!!! I didn't make it in time but he drove over it just fine and I think he actually planned it because he yelled "I did it"! after he got over it. Derek would always drive him over this rock but he would be steering and walking right beside him!
This kid always impresses me. Seriously, he is growing up on me. He is becoming more independant. I am not sure if PERCS is the reason but he has changed so much since the procedure. I don't know if it gave him more confidence or if his brain can focus on other things now but he is a different child for the better.

Fantastic. Emma wants a car like this, but I am afraid it will be too fast for her. I don't even know if she can manage the steering wheel.
I am so excited about all of Brendan's progress. I think you might just be right about him being able to focus better on other things now. That makes sense to me.
I love hearing about his independence because that is what we all want for our kids--even if it comes in the smallest of packages. I would just love for Emma to be able to wheel herself in a wheelchair and feed herself. That would be great.
I also love hearing about how much he is talking now. I love that. I know that is not what this post was about, but I still love hearing how is able to play so well and communicate with other kids.
Oh, and I love that you are posting all these great posts lately. I cannot wait to read them each day or so. I would love to be able to show Emma a video of Brendan drive his "go cart". She would love that, and I would love to see how fast it goes.
Go BRENDAN!

Thanks Amy. I always enjoy reading what you write too. Brendan surprises me on a daily basis with what comes out of his mouth. He uses his memory and picks up what people do and say all rhe time. Like he asks me to hols our dog when he backs up his car. We have to hold him when one of us pulls in or leave the house. I took a video today so I will try and post it.

Great stuff! I'm so happy to hear you're having such a great summer. It passes by too quickly, for sure! I wish Malayna could drive a car like Brendan does but since they all seem to require using her right foot it doesn't work for her. Brendan rocks though!

Sometimes bren uses his left foot to drive it lol. His right doesnt work as well but he can do it.

Two Stars
Ten studio albums. Ten. Pearl Jam are now as much of an institution as David Attenborough, but the Lord Governor of Africa on behalf of the British Empire (I think that's Attenborough's official title) has nowhere near the struggle for relevance on his hands that the Seattle rockers do. It's been four years since their last album, and sadly the main thought reverberating around our heads in the wake of the release of Lightning Bolt is "why?"
'Getaway' gets the album off to an energetic start akin to being slapped in the face with a wet fish while Eddie Vedder jumps up and down on your chest and force-feeds you coffee out of an industrial-size oil drum. It's a good song. The whole album is filled with good songs. 'Sirens' has a guitar solo that'll set your soul on fire and 'Mind Your Manners' is dripping with classic Pearl Jam grungey disdain.
But the problem is the same one that all bands run into when they start becoming considered as 'past masters'. Pearl Jam are supposed to be pioneers. In the 90s they were part of the Seattle grunge explosion that made the whole world take notice. Yes, Cobain hated them, but at least he cared. One can't help feeling that if he were alive today, not only would he be making the finest, most progressive music on Earth, but he would also have completely lost interest in Pearl Jam.
It's difficult to pick specific holes in an album like Lightning Bolt which is so obviously full of excellent musicality, and yet we're still filled with the overwhelming desire to do so. They sound tired, they sound confused, and they sound old. Maybe this is unfair. Maybe it's fine that Pearl Jam have produced another OK album that sounds the same as they always have, but probably not. Their success means they have to be held to a higher standard, and this standard has not been met.
The bottom line is, the fans will like Lightning Bolt, because it's a perfectly decent album,but it's nothing new. Pearl Jam are out of ideas.

How can you Renovate Your Career
There are so many reasons why you may need to reinvent your career. Maybe you're looking to reenter the workforce after staying home raising your kids. Or you might have lost your job after twenty years with the same company. Or perhaps the thought of going into your job just one more day makes you want to do a Jerry Maguire. No matter what your age or motivation, it's not as impossible as it may seem to reinvent your career. Here's how.
Decide what you want to do. Now more than ever is the time to really, truly figure out what you'd like to do in your professional life. Just because you've toiled away as an ad exec doesn't mean that you'll continue on that career path until retirement. If you're clueless as to what the next phase in your career will be, simply look to your hobbies. Discover what gives you joy in life, then determine a way to find work in that field.
Establish a timeframe. Once you decide which direction you want to take your career in, you'll want to get there — now. But you'll need to take the time as you carefully lay down the foundation for your career. Do some research to learn of potential jobs in your area of interest and to also get an idea of how long it might take before you can start working in your new profession. Depending on where you are in life, you may need to find a remote job or one that offers flex. So be sure to look for these job characteristics when job hunting.
Get guidance. If you're lucky, you'll already know people who can help you as you begin your new career. If all of your contacts are from your former industry, you'll need to find a potential mentor for your new career. A great way to gain new connections is to request informational interviews with companies that align with your new career goals. Not only will you get an in-depth look into this potential job field, but you'll also get to meet industry heavy-hitters who, if you form a connection with, can possibly mentor you along the way.
Build new skills. It may seem impossible to marry your old professional life with your new one, but there's a great chance that you already possess some of the skills you'll need in order to make your new career a smashing success. So take a look at your previous work experience and write down all of the skills you've utilized in those jobs. Then assess the skills you'll need in order to get work in your new career. Redesign your resume to highlight those skills, and see if you can take a class or attend webinars in order to build skills that can help you moving forward.
Be flexible. Starting out in a new field may mean that you'll start out in a lower position than you've previously held. It may also equal taking a financial hit by earning a lower salary than you're used to. Just keep in mind that these are all just mere milestones as you work towards gaining footing in your new career — and a happier, healthier work life balance.
Reinvention at any age can be scary but it can also be an exciting time as you challenge yourself to find a position — and a career — that you truly love.

Peachy Keen Cobbler Recipe
This is the last week of peach season here on the East Coast, so stock up! Whether you only have a few peaches left, or have been stockpiling them dreading the end of the season– We have a recipe for you!
I remember riding with my mom to the local peach orchards summer after summer to pick up buckets of North Carolina peaches. Then, sitting in the kitchen with my mom and grandmother peeling those peaches. Peach cobbler was and continues to be an in-demand staple of the household. "Wait, I have buckets of peaches too, what do I do?" Good question. The glorious thing about this recipe is that there are also instructions on how to freeze them in advance for a SUPER quick and delicious cobbler on the fly!
FYI, when I was talking to my Mom about this recipe, her tip for maximizing enjoyment of this treat was,
"We always save the last bag of frozen peaches for February, because peach cobbler in February is the very best."
From my mother's mouth to your ears. February, it MUST be February *wink wink*.
- 1 stick (113 g) butter or margarine (melted)
- 1 c. (225 g) self-rising flour
- 1 c. (225 g) sugar
- 1/2 c. (113 g) water
- 3/4 c. (6.3 oz) milk
- 4 or 5 large peaches
- 5 tbsp. (70.7 g) sugar
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Melt butter in baking dish (9x9in).
- Mix flour, sugar and milk.
- Pour into butter.
- Slice peaches over mixture.
- Sprinkle sugar over top.
- Pour water over top and bake for 50 minutes.
- Self-rising flour substitute: 1 c. (225 g) all-purpose flour + 1/2 tsp. salt (2mL) + 1 1/2 tsp. (7mL) baking powder.
- If freezing peaches for later: Peel & slice 4-5 peaches and add Fruit-Fresh (or similar product) and seal them in freezer bags (approximately a quart bag).
- If using frozen peaches in recipe: Remove peaches and thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature before incorporating into recipe.
