Dalgona Espresso Shots
What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Table Food: Dalgona Espresso Shots! If it’s one thing I learned during our time of self-isolation, it was how to make each day something special to look forward to. So every afternoon, in the middle of our day, I’d stop what I was doing and pad off to the kitchen for a delightful diversion. Thanks to my virtual friends, Jyothi* and Judy**, I became a connoisseur of the “Coffee Break”. Both women perfected the art of Dalgona Coffee, a form of whipped coffee that requires only a few simple ingredients: instant coffee, sugar, and milk. (Feel free to click on their links at the bottom of the page.) I became quite lazy about whipping the topping into a mountain of fluff by allowing the milk frother on my espresso machine to become the workhorse. At the press of a button, it became thick, frothy, and…

Filosofa Writes A Letter … Again
This is the letter I will be sending to my ‘representative’ in the U.S. House of Representatives, Mr. Warren Davidson, later today …
Dear Mr. Davidson,
I would like to take a few moments to let you know why you do not represent me. Yes, I realize you won the election fair and square, but you still do not represent me. Why? Because your values and mine appear to be 180° apart, because you do not make legislative decisions that are in the best interest of the people of this nation, or even the people of your district.
Here are the things I consider to be most important for this country, that I think should be top priorities in the House of Representatives:
- Equality. Women should have the same rights as men to make their own medical decisions, to be treated as equals in the workplace, and not to be…

Human Values – Silent Songs of Sonsnow
“I try to share with other people that the ultimate source of happiness is within us; it’s not found in money and fame. I promote fundamental human values on the basis of scientific findings and common sense. Evidence that basic human nature is compassionate is a source of hope.” His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

Herbs and spices – Začinsko bilje i začini
Anis (Pimpinella anisum) – Koristi se list i sjeme, koje je jačeg ukusa i sličan je mentolu. Koristi se u pripremi salata, sosova, jela od povrća i čorbi, kao i tijesta i kolača. Poboljšava varenje, smanjuje nadimanje, ublažava kašalj, glavobolju i smiruje zapaljive procese.
Biber (Piper nigrum) – Porijeklom je iz Indije, a smatra se najpopularnijim začinom, zastupljenim u svim svjetskim kuhinjama. U obliku je zrna ili praha, a može biti crni ili bijeli (zeleni) biber. Najbolje ga je samljeti pred samu upotrebu. Olakšava varenje hrane, djeluje stimulativno na krvotok.
Bijeli luk (Allium sativum) – Koristi se, uglavnom, u svježem stanju ili kao prah. Njegova upotreba veoma je rasprostranjena jer djeluje i kao antiseptik, posjeduje i antibiotska svojstva, snižava krvni pritisak, poboljšava probavu.



Kopar (Anethum graveolens) – Koriste se igličasti listići u svježem ili sušenom stanju. Veoma je aromatična i dodaje se…
