Fireflies wing on a starlight dreamUnwrapping darkness' chemisePirouetting amber to gleamFireflies wing on a starlight dreamThe Ursa swathed in aurum streamWaking the fire, stirring the moonAureus of a glowing rune.Tracing color in night's darknessFlaring the space between the treesConstellations light up the starknessTracing color in night's darknessBraille that makes up the eyes brightnessLike nymphs on a dappled trapezeTracing color in night's darknessA sky glazed with a velvet breeze....# Triolet

Pečeni mladi krompir s ruzmarinom – Baked new potatoes with rosemary

Baked new potatoes with rosemary

Myrela

VRIJEME: 30 minuta / PORCIJA: 4

  • 600 g mladih krompira slične veličine
  • 2 kašike maslinovog ulja
  • 1 limun
  • 2-3 velike grančice svježeg ruzmarina
  • so i crni biber

Zagrijte rernu do 230°C (oznaka za gas 8) i zagrijte vodu u električnom bokalu do ključanja. Očistite kožu s krompira trljanjem i stavite ih u veliku šerpu. Prelijte ih ključalom vodom, zagrijte ponovo da proključa i kuvajte polako 5 minuta. U međuvremenu, sipajte maslinovo ulje u veliki, plitak pleh i stavite ga u rernu da se zagrije. Operite sav vosak s limuna i sitno narendajte njegovu koru. Operite ruzmarin i otkinite njegove listove sa stabljika. Dobro ocijedite krompire, stavite ih u vruće ulje i dobro izmiješajte, da bi ih ulje ravnomjerno prekrilo. Pospite preko njih limunovu koru, listove ruzmarina i malo soli i bibera. Vodite računa da ulje bude zaista vruće prije nego započnete pečenje – krompiri bi trebalo da počnu da cvrče…

Everett (Smitty) Smith

Pacific Paratrooper

young Everett and Mother, Anna

Everett Smith was born Dec. 12, 1914 and grew up with the gentle waves of Jamaica Bay on an island one mile long and barely four blocks wide. This was the tight-knit community of Broad Channel, New York. He resided with his mother, Anna at peaceful 207 East 9th Road and spent his days between school, working and helping to care for his grandmother.

Smitty’s, Broad Channel, NY

Everett’s nickname had always been “Smitty” and so, the name of his fishing station came to be. In 1939, at 24 years of age, he married a woman named Catherine and she joined the Smith household.

News of Hitler and his rise to power filtered into the newspapers and radio, but Anna still had the memories of WWI and their financial struggles in what would be become known as the Great Depression…

Weekend Stories by Trishikh

Savitri hummed the ancient Bengali lullaby – “Khoka ghumalo, para juralo, Bargi elo deshe. Bulbulite dhan kheyechhe, khazna debo kishe?(My boy has fallen asleep, silence has set in the locality, the Bargis have come to our state. Passerine songbirds have eaten the rice grains, how shall I pay my taxes?)

She was trying to make her two-year-old son fall asleep at the backseat of their 1950 Ambassador Landmaster, a family heirloom of a car that her husband Umesh would not ditch for anything in the world.

From the mid-1700s, nearly every Bengali mother has sung this cradlesong to make her child asleep, and Savitri had a habit of doing the same wherever it may be, at home, in a hotel, or even in the back seat of the family car.

It was 3:00 AM on a cold winter December night in 1990, a few days before Christmas. A…

Mire esta película de 2 minutos y 27 segundos que muestra momentos de la vida Yanomami en el Amazonas, Venezuela y la obra de arte “La escultura de fuego” ardiendo a orillas del río Orinoco para protestar por la continua destrucción de la selva tropical y la degradación de las vidas de los indígenas:

¡NO a la destrucción por el Arco Minero del Orinoco por Maduro de las tierras indígenas de Venezuela!

¡NO a la abolición por Bolsonaro de las protecciones de los territorios indígenas en…
