The Cheap Patek Philippe Replica: a series so often regarded as the peak of luxury, it has become the modern-day "Grail watch" for so many collectors, of both vintage and contemporary watches. Famed initially for its simplicity, originality, and timelessness of design, the Calatrava series set out from the start to follow the German Bauhaus school of design, which championed the tenets of minimalism and functionality.
Released in 1932 shortly after Patek Philippe China acquisition by the Stern family, the Calatrava series was named after the Calatrava cross, derived from medieval Christian heritage, which Patek uses as its corporate logo. The Reference 96, the very first in the series, was groundbreaking for its time — starkly contrasting the more intricate dial and case designs of the preceding years.
Today, as much as yesteryear, the Calatrava series maintains an esteemed standing in the world of horology. Though we now know it through many different references, we will be focusing our "Vintage Eye" upon the Cheap Replica Watches, a contemporary re-interpretation of the original design.
Available in platinum or white, yellow or rose gold, this 37-mm, manually wound watch strongly resembles the 31-mm piece from the early 1930s. With its sleek case, understated signed crown, and flat bezel, the watch is relatively thin and meant to slip easily beneath a shirt cuff. On the dial is a somewhat textured, silvered background for the applied gold, tick hour markers, an outline of an applied gold outer minute ring, and a minimalist, small seconds sub-dial toward the 6 o'clock position. The dauphine hands, a personal favorite style choice of mine, are powered by Patek Philippe Replica, a movement with a power reserve of about 44 hours, and the watch has an overall thinness of 8 mm.
In comparison to the original Reference 96, the modern 5196 pays what I find to be an honorable homage to its vintage heritage. With its applied, understated hour markers, dauphine hands, subdial, and slim case — the modern piece would have no problem potentially passing itself off as a vintage timepiece. Also, one of the features that draws much praise here is the 5196's solid, polished caseback. Most makers of modern, luxury watches today, choose to show off the watch's intricately decorated movement through a clear caseback, but with the 5196,Cheap Patek Philippe Replica opted instead opted to follow its Bauhaus heritage and truly allow form to follow function, as many are apt to state.
The 5196, being a re-interpretation and not a re-creation, also has a few noteworthy changes from its predecessor. The most obvious one is the 6-mm increase in the case size, but you might also notice the overall better finishing as well as more sleekness in the Cheap Replica Watches: the crown is slimmer and tighter to the case, and there is a more intricate use of both brushed and polished metal finishes as compared to the original, which was mostly polished. Some other changes include the more textured dial, the more minimalist subdial, and the applied outer minute ring — all features not present on the first examples of Reference 96.
Whether this proves true or not in the long run for modern Patek Philippe Replica I could not say, but I would argue if a consumer has the means and the will to acquire a Patek Philippe watch, the 5196 is one of the best options available. Very few other watches today can boast such a strong history, timeless style, and minimalist but still fascinating design — to me, the three best characteristics of a watch that you plan to hide beneath a tailored tuxedo jacket.
In 1976,Cheap Patek Philippe Replica released the very first sports watch in the Swiss brand's 137-year history, the Patek Philippe Nautilus. This year, that now-iconic timepiece marks its 40th year in production, and Patek is commemorating it in style, with two new limited-edition Nautilus models — one a platinum-cased tribute to the 1970s original, the other a flyback chronograph patterned after the model's most recent redesign in 2006.
The original Nautilus, commissioned by Patek's father-son ownership and management team of Henri and Patek Philippe Replica and designed by watch world legend Gérald Genta, was 42 mm in diameter — huge by the standards of the day — and had an unusually shaped, exceptionally water-resistant steel case with two unusual, ear-like projections on either side. But the most notable feature of Reference 3700, as the first Nautilus was designated, was its price: $2,350. At the time, steel luxury watches were still a rarity. For Cheap Replica Watches, up to then known exclusively for its precious-metal dress watches, a chunky, steel sports watch with an eye-popping price tag was news indeed. The watch was not an immediate hit, but later became one, earning the nickname "Jumbo" among collectors and spawning a slew of other versions over the subsequent decades.
The Patek Philippe China Nautilus Anniversary Limited Edition, limited to 700 pieces, is a modern version of the "Jumbo" with a few notable differences. The case is 44 mm in diameter and made of 950 platinum rather than steel. Platinum is very challenging to machine, with a tough, ductile consistency that abrades drill bits, milling heads, files, and polishing tools much more severely than gold or steel. Both the three-part case and the link bracelet are machined from this material, and both boast a host of high-end finishes, including chamfering, satin-finishing, sandblasting, and mirror polishing. As is tradition with Cheap Patek Philippe Replica platinum watches, the Nautilus Ref. 5711/1P is fitted with a flawless rare white Top Wesselton diamond in the bezel above the lugs at 6 o'clock.
The second anniversary piece is even more "Jumbo." Ref. 5976, a self-winding flyback chronograph, has an 18K white gold case that measures 49.25 mm wide — 3.6 mm wider than its predecessor, Ref. 5980, the flagship model of the redesigned Nautilus collection from 2006. The model retains the original's bilateral case bulges, with both chronograph pushers integrated into the sides for easy operation. Top-notch hand finishing abounds, including a vertical satin finish and shiny chamfers on the bezel and alternating matte and mirror polishing on the bracelet links. Moreover, the crisp legibility of the chronograph functions was further optimized.
Perpetual calendar chronograph for decades has been a Patek Philippe china Grand Complications when iconic meter watches, has gone through Ref.1518, Ref.2499, Ref.3970, Ref.5970, Ref.5270 Five products. The 2015 Basel Watch Fair, 5270 Family debuted rose gold models 5270R, disk design conservative, white dial with silver classic combination and warm rose gold case.
First, let us look at the history of 5270, 2011 launch of the 5270G is definitely a Patek Philippe replica headlines, the table built 29-535 PS Q PP first movement is an entirely self-produced calendar chronograph movement, replacing the previous generations of 5970 and 3970 for use in 27-70 Q movement, the movement from Lemania, though 27-70 is an exquisite top movement, but we live in an age, 'production' has been the word become a selling point, someone did this gimmick seemed to be beaten. In the long term this is a good thing or a bad thing in the end can not be determined yet, but obviously, as Patek Philippe top brands must take action, they really do it!
From Traditionally, 29-535 PS Q reflects the pure tradition. 5270 is a classic column-wheel chronograph, using a transverse horizontal clutch engagement timing mechanism so you can see all the cool features dizzy. Although the level of the clutch known defects, should choose a more modern vertical clutch device, but PP purely from a structural point of view of aesthetics more beautiful, simply choose the former. Advanced watchmaking technology is not always the first one, on the contrary, good movement must do the delicate balance of beauty and functionality.
Back appreciate gear engagement and disengagement through sapphire is really beautiful visual enjoyment. To provide the wearer with a more immersive experience. In addition, we should note that, PP through a series of ingenious invention to try to avoid the disadvantages of a lot of levels clutch, such as trembling hands and rebound. This includes patents toothed timing wheel contour, to reduce wear and prevent collisions prongs (lead hands jump); column-wheel cap is actually functional, allowing more precise adjustment of the clutch lever; slotted minute counter cam shaking can be prevented when the second hand is reset. The newly developed calendar module thickness of only 1.65 mm, which ensures super complex functions as a wristwatch 5270 remains relatively slim dimensions.
Like with expectations, 29-535 PS Q polish quite nice, nothing superfluous decoration cumbersome, and this is the way I like, of course, in my case, Langer's Datograph movement look more attractive.
2015 Basel Watch Fair, Patek Philippe launched its third-generation 5270 — 5270R-001, for the first time rose gold case with white dial. 5270 41 mm case, perhaps my favorite watches appearance, lugs and grooves bezel curve concave side harmoniously side by side. Looking at the side profile, 12.4 mm thickness will not feel heavy, the entire replica watches china appearance without any unexpected place, shape is very smooth, reflect a masculine elegance, which is master of design.
The dial is unmistakable Patek Philippe style, there are two square holes 12 o'clock show calendar month and week, 30 minutes drive time, travel time seconds dial and moon phase disc slightly concave. When using rectangular rose gold standard, it leaves type soft hands each other, a bit like the 3970 design of the hands. A combination of pink gold case and brown alligator strap, warmth, white dial further enhance this whole kind of warm feeling.
5270 to remove the child from the start dial day / night and leap year indicators. Replaced by a corresponding symmetry around the bottom of the dial to display the two small round holes, so there is more clean look.
In addition to the rose gold case material change, 5270R The most significant change is the layout of the dial scale. This dial style starting in 2014 the diamond 5971P, dial the outermost track is 1/5 second chronograph scale pattern, followed by a speedometer scale, the innermost track pattern is minute, triple scale well to make up the first generation Dial vacancy 5270G sense, after all, the table diameter 41 mm large table in the PP considered in terms of the design. The second hand has been extended accordingly, in order to improve the accuracy of reading the watch. In addition, the previous generation in 5270 is criticized "chin" ceased to exist.

Flashback: 1995 NCAA Division II Playoffs Preview: East Texas State Lions Vs. Portland State Vikings
Note: This a republication of an article written by the sports staff of the Portland Tribune. Again, every attempt has been made to ensure the original integrity of the article. This is NOT the work of The Lion Wire or anyone on it's staff.
Portland-Portland State Viking Football Coach Tim Walsh knows he faces an opponent that is the polar opposite in every way, shape, and form from his Viking squad. The Lions of East Texas State head up to Providence Park to take on the Vikings and Walsh has only had 2 days to prepare for them, and he sees a lot that worries him.
"They are very talented and well coached. They have two quarterbacks who can both play well and have a great group of receivers and skill guys. A lot to concerned about for sure."
The Lions finished their regular season 8-3, finishing second in the Lone Star Conference. Their losses have come to a ranked Central Arkansas squad out of the Gulf South Conference, a loss to Division I Northwestern Louisiana State and then dropping an 37-18 decision to a team Walsh is very familiar with, Texas A&M-Kingsville. "Those two squads are rivals, and we know they play hard against each other, but seeing what I have on film, it is easy to see why they are as good as they are." The Lions 19 point loss to the Javelinas showed they fared much better than the Vikings did against Kingsville, getting blown out 44-7. The Lions run a pro set style offense that has a great set of balance between throwing and passing. Strong quarterback play seems to be the norm in Commerce, a town of about 8,000 residents tucked in between Dallas and Oklahoma in rural Northeastern Texas where East Texas State is located. The Lions previous three signal callers, Clint Dolezel, Bob Bounds, and Michael Trigg, have all started in the Arena Football League while the two signal callers before them, Kyle Mackey and Wade Wilson, both nabbed starting jobs in the National Football League. Mackey with the New York Jets, and Wilson with the New Orleans Saints.
The Lions are led by signal caller Cole Cayce on offense. When he is healthy, he is terrific. Having started all 11 games, Cayce has seen himself to the bench due to injury and Chandler Evans who has played in 8 games for the Lions, actually leads the Lion passing stats with 1,452 yards and 8 touchdown passes. Jason Smith has rushed for 1,077 yards and averages 90 yards per game on the ground. Cayce and Evans also have 4 targets that they can get the ball to in Daryl Anderson, James Epps, Greg Watson, and Trent Dagen. On Defense, the Lions are led by All-American Kevin Mathis, who could possibly be the best overall player on the team. Mathis leads the team on punt and kickoff returns in addition to snagging 6 interceptions. He is not the only Lion who has a nice collection of picks. Donnie Jones has 5 interceptions while Manuel Evans has 3. Travis Marshall leads the team in total tackles with a whopping 73 tackles, and the special teams are strong led by Mathis as the main return man while David Dell has hit on 17 of 26 field goals, including a long of 53. Punter Chris Dolan averages 42 yards per punt, including a long of 68 yards.
The Lions are coached by Eddie Vowell, who took over the program 9 years ago at the tender age of 38. His first two seasons were a rough go, but since 1988, the Lions have picked up 56 wins under Vowell and is they might say down in Texas, this is not their first rodeo. The Lions are used to success. They went to the Division II quarterfinals in 1990 and 1991 and have won at least 8 games in 5 of the past 8 seasons to go along with a Lone Star Conference title in 1990. The Lions have also won a National title 23 years ago when they were in NAIA Division I and also finished as National Semifinalists in 1980. They have also won their conference 20 times since 1931.
Vowell, who is a colorful character with the humor and wit of a Texan, was asked what to expect from his players upon landing in Portland, he quickly said "Culture Shock." On the likelihood of facing Texas A&M-Kingsville for the second time should the Lions knock off the Vikings, Vowell says; "I am sure the players would be fired up because we don't like them and they don't like us, but me personally, I would rather have a root canal."
The Vikings know that their 7-4 record might seem pedestrian but Walsh and the Vikings have the top ranked offense in the entire country, averaging 402 yards per game, but the Lions are no slouch on offense either. The average 352 yards per game.
"It might get to a point where we might just have to outscore them, and if it gets a win, that's all that matters at this point in the season. Does not have to be pretty, just winning gets us to the next round." says Walsh

"Shermania!"
(((HEADPHONES RECOMMENDED)))
Produced as a tribute to Disney Legends, the Sherman Brothers, "Shermania!" the film began life first as a song. Robert and Richard Sherman's Father, Tin Pan Alley tune-smith, Al Sherman, told his boys to follow the three S's when writing songs: make them singable, simple, and sincere.
With that ideal as inspiration, composer Jerry Ranger and author/lyricist Cynthia Ferrell co-wrote the song, "Singable, Simple, and Sincere". The song is performed by Tess Ferrell, now lead singer in "Big Band Beat," a broadway-style show on the American Waterfront at Tokyo DisneySea.
The film, now titled, "Shermania!" was shot over the course of two days in August 2010 in Los Angeles and Thousand Oaks, California, under the direction of Cynthia Ferrell & Brian McDonald and stars Tess Ferrell and Jerry Ranger.
Other credits include:
Cinematographer: Tim Carr
Editors: Brian McDonald, Chuck Lewis & Nick Brosco
Boom operator and production support: Gary Chambers
Script supervisor: Nancy Friedman
Musical arrangement & performance: David Vasquez

In this episode, the Mouse Lounge takes in a languorous, lazy summer day…at 55 miles per hour of course.
Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. In 1963 Walt Disney Productions released the feature film Summer Magic, starring Hayley Mills, Burl Ives, and Dorothy McGuire in a story about a Boston widow and her children taking up residence in a small town in Maine. The film was based on the book "Mother Carey's Chickens" by Kate Douglas Wiggin. The film was Mills' fourth of six films for Disney, and the young actress received a Golden Globe nomination for her work.
The soundtrack from the picture yielded some very good songs, including the Richard Sherman composition, the Ugly Bug Ball; which went on to be a popular song that year. Two other cuts on the record however will be of interest to Disney Park fans. Flitterin' and Beautiful Beulah can often be heard in instrumental form as you stroll down Main Street USA. Now have a listen to these familiar melodies, complete with their original lyrics.
From the Walt Disney Archives: On the evening of June 25th, D23 members gathered at the Walt Disney Theater on the Disney Studios lot in Burbank to witness a once in a lifetime event. Dave Smith, Chief Archivist for the Walt Disney Company celebrated his and it's 40th anniversary! While tinged with just the slightest bit of sadness with the fresh reveal Dave will be retiring in October; the evening was a celebration in the truest sense. Disney luminaries such as CEO Bob Iger, composer Richard Sherman, and Imagineers Tony Baxter and Bob Gurr, were in attendance.
Leonard Maltin interviewed Dave during the occasion. We present the entirety of that interview here.
Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East or a Disney Park West. This week, summer isn't complete without the rush of a roller coaster and fireworks. In DCA's Paradise Pier, take a ride on California Screamin'! Then, let's cross the esplanade and take in Magical!, Disney's Nightastic fireworks spectacular. This is a Mouse Lounge Re-mix, so should be extra fun with the sounds of a very enthusiastic summer crowd in the background.
We'll close this week's show with audio from an attraction you can only see online. You'll hear more about it coming up. Have a listen to the World of Color Roadshow.

Mouse Lounge -- Season 04 -- Episode 7
In this episode, the Mouse Lounge salutes America… Disney style!
Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. This week, from the 1980 Disneyland Record #2511 "Yankee Doodle Mickey" have a listen to Mickey and the gang performing You're a Grand Old Flag and the Armed Forces Melody. Listen carefully, that's Wayne Allwine as Mickey, three years before he officially inherited the roll from Jimmy McDonald in Mickey's Christmas Carol.
Yankee Doodle Mickey was given the CD treatment in 2002. While several songs from the original LP were removed, at the time The American Adventure hosted an a capella group called, "American Vybe." Their studio rendition of America the Beautiful is featured here.
From the Walt Disney Archives: In 2004 Leonard Maltin met with John Hench, at the time, Disney's longest-term employee, and discusses how after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Burbank studio was instantly turned into a base for the military. Then, Walt's nephew recalls his boyhood memories of the Disney studio during the war and also touches on the Disney insignia's popularity and his own method of promoting Victory Through Air Power.
Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East or a Disney Park West. This week we look into the making of and then take in the Magic Kingdom's Hall of Presidents. With new narration by Morgan Freeman and a short speech by President Obama, this iteration of the attraction in a class by itself.
We'll close this week's show with a concert in the park performed by the Disneyland Band. Enjoy, "Music in America" followed by the Flag Retreat Ceremony.
Please keep your head, arms, feet and legs inside the podcast at all times. Driver you're clear!
Let's reflect on this holiday by heeding Walt Disney, who spoke the following words at the Metropolitan Opera house in New York City in 1941, as America tumbled into World War II:
"Tomorrow will be better. For as long as America keeps alive the ideas of freedom and a better life, all men will want to be free and share our way of life. I thank God and America for the right to live and raise my family under the flag of tolerance, democracy and freedom."

In this episode, the Mouse Lounge tumbles down the rabbit hole.
Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. This week Walt introduces the tale of Alice in Wonderland, and then told on Disneyland Records ST-3909, the Magic Window Series! Listen to the first half in the podcast, then log in to the multimedia section of mouselounge.com to download the second half.
From the Walt Disney Archives: Walt gives a tour of the Disney Studios to Winston Hibler under the auspices of being during production of Alice in Wonderland. While purely a promotional puff piece it is nonetheless worthy of playback for its nostalgia value.
Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East or a Disney Park West. A year before the first major expansion of Disneyland that was to add the Matterhorn, Monorail, and subs, on June 14, 1958, Alice in Wonderland, the attraction opened. Adjacent to The Mad Tea Party and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, this dark ride has always been exclusive to Disneyland.
We'll close this week's show with a musical excerpt and live performance, both from Disneyland. Lifted from the soundtrack of the hopefully temporarily defunct Parade of Dreams, have a listen to the Alice Unit. Then have a seat in front of the old upright on Coke Corner as Alice and the Mad Hatter do their level best to organize the chairs for a mad tea party!
In this episode of the Mouse Lounge, DCA becomes alight with magic and music with the first public performance of "World of Color! This audio was captured during the June 11 9:00pm show. This post also marks. after a six month hiatus, the return of The Mouse Lounge Podcast. (If you think of the Mouse Lounge kinda like how "LOST" was aired, maybe it won't piss you off as much.) ;)


Moradia Calicos is conveniently located in a very private, gated residential area of Albufeira, not too far from the local attractions and old town of Albufeira yet, far enough to rest easy in the peace and quiet of a Portuguese night. This quiet provision is perfect for families with younger children or those who just need a little peace.
Perhaps the best feature of this villa, is the outdoor pool. Not only is this pool private but it also has steps and a ladder to ease entrance and exit as well as being fully fenced off and gated. This extra security is again perfect for families with young children. Surrounding the pool is an array of sun loungers with parasols for those who wish to revel in the heat, without the burn of the sun. Picture catching up on your reading whilst the kids are in the pool or dozing in the afternoon sun (don't forget the sun cream!).
This villa is set over two floors with two bedrooms, comfortably sleeping up to four people. Moradia Calicos is laid out in a very traditional way, with both bedrooms being located on the upper floor and both feature spacious balconies which overlook the pool. The balconies are another great feature allowing for easy pool socialising without the risk of getting splashed. Further to this, the property has an indoor and outdoor dining area giving you the option for al fresco dining whenever you fancy. Meals are easily prepared in the well-equipped kitchen which again features a cosy dining area, perhaps used for a quick breakfast or to keep the chef company!


Many generations before us have realized that our places are extremely beautiful. Here they wanted to live, work, create and they were loyal to the beauties of the Dravinja Valley. I believe that we also feel the same way and that we will be able to transmit the love and respect for the enfironment to future generations. In recent years, we have managed to achieve some very important projects that significantly affect the quality of life. My perennial desire was that we present all these achievements to others, and of course to our people. The best method to carry out promotion is to let those strict, professional judges, who may see things differently than we ourselves, decide whether our path was correct or not. We have shown and proven to the Commission that we do care about our environment and take good care of it, that we keep our town tidy and enable education for young people to act environmentally responsible in the futures. It is also very important to take care of people who need a little more attention, so that most people feel good among other residents of the town. Happy, satisfied and proud locals with positive energy attract and inspire visitors from other places.
By winning the golden Entente Florale award, Slovenske Konjice again have written their history with golden letters. The criteria which we had to meet in order to achieve a golden award were extremely high. I believe that we will continue to work on such a high level in order to maintain the quality of living culture in the city of flowers and wine.
The golden plate is installed on the Entente Florale Monument (by the Fountain for Two Birds) since November 8, 2014, where it had joined the first plate, which Slovenske Konjice received in 1998. At that time we were the first municipality in Slovenia, which participated in this prestigious competition and, besides Slovenske Konjice, the bronze award in the category of villages also went to our village Žiče. After 16 years, the town of Slovenske Konjice has again successfully seen its reflection in the mirror of tidines, which flashed the image of the city that offers high quality of life to its locals and unforgettable experiences to its visitors. Welcome to GOLDEN Slovenske Konjice.


I haven't done a Food Friday in a long time, but was inspired today, despite it being Sunday. If you're a purist and want to read a Food Friday post on a Friday, I'll forgive you if you don't comment for a few days.
We're having our last big family hoo-hah of the Thanksgiving season today at my husband's aunt's house, and I was asked to bring an appetizer. After having cooked (and cleaned up after) Thanksgiving dinner this past week, I was in the mood for something very easy with limited dishes involved. After hearing them referenced on the most recent episode of The Splendid Table, I decided I wanted to try my hand at making Parmesan crisps. I did a little Internet research and ended up combining notes from a few recipes, then putting my own spin on it anyway. So here, for what it's worth, is my (usual kinda-sorta) recipe.
By the way, I used a really good Parmesan for this--none of the inexpensive pre-grated stuff that comes in a tall green jar (that shall remain nameless). That would likely work fine, but I've recently become a Parmesan snob and buy chunks of the good stuff at the grocery store and grate it myself. It's more expensive, but the flavor is so fantastic that a little goes a long way. And since this recipe is all about the Parmesan, I'd recommend ponying up for the good stuff.
A great Parmesan, shredded. (I used a Parmiagiano Reggiano available in my local grocery store). I ended up with about 4 cups, but it all depends on how many crisps you want to make.
1. Preheat oven to 375. Make sure rack is in center of oven. Prepare a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
2. Mix the ingredients together well. The flour will tend to want to head for the bottom of the bowl so I used my hands and kept tossing everything until I felt the cheese was well-coated with the seasonings.
4. Bake for about 4-7 minutes, depending on your oven. They'll bubble first, but don't take them out while bubbling. They need to get a little past that point. You want them nicely browned but not burned.
5. After removing from the oven, let the pan sit for about 5 minutes so they finish setting before sliding them off the parchment with a very thin-edged metal spatula. Move them onto a cooling rack covered with a piece of paper towel to finish cooling and setting. They're extremely delicate, so handle with care!
I believe my yield was something like 3 dozen crisps, but I wasn't really counting. Your yield will depend on how big you make your crisps. I'm carrying them to the party in a tupperware container with a lot of paper towel between each layer mostly to try to keep them from pulverizing themselves on the drive.
In food processor, blend 1 can (28 oz) of diced tomatoes and 1 tbsp tomato paste with onion powder, garlic powder, and italian seasonings. (I used an Italian seasoning blend plus extra dried basil since I'm a fan. We're past season for fresh herbs here, but if I did this in the summer fresh herbs would definitely be the thing. I'd have used a real onion instead of onion powder if I'd had one in the house: This was sort of a make-do recipe.) Add salt to taste, and a pinch of sugar. Process until mostly smooth but with some nice texture to it.
I confess to having "taste-tested" several. Quality control and all that. I'm taking some risk posting this before actually taking the crisps to the party and finding out what everyone else thinks, but I'm fairly confident!

Ben Nevis Path Restoration
Rural Paths
Working in all weathers, the McGowan team carried out vital repairs on a significantly eroded section of the tourist path climbing Ben Nevis; the work involved a 3km hike to the site and back each day, and airborne deliveries of rock.
Location: Ben Nevis
Type of works: Path restoration
The mountain tourist path leading up Ben Nevis was suffering from severe erosion problems, resulting in McGowan being contracted by The Nevis Partnership to carry out repair and strengthening works to improve the route in time for the main 2016 season. The work was carried out in the early months of the year, with a brief to make sure that the restored path looked as natural as possible.
The tourist path was in major structural disarray, and the path inaccessible by road, so McGowan's solution was to transport large quantities of stone by helicopter so that the team of eight, often working in snowy conditions, could work to upgrade the footpaths in the worst affected areas.
Every day, the team walked the 3km up to the section of the path requiring repair, taking advantage wherever possible of good spells of weather to get the path into great shape, while maintaining its environmental integrity. The thousands of visitors who use the path can now enjoy the magnificent environment from a newly restored route up the mountain.

The "Blog" of "Unnecessary" Quotation Marks: "egg" "salad"
Ok, I'm on board with things involving mayo not being called salad, but if it doesn't have eggs in it... Thanks, David.
This calls so much into doubt. The nature of egg. The nature of salad. Whether "egg salad" can exist as a unity.
One thing that's not in doubt however -- it is indeed special!


A lot of families consider Dubai one of the best destinations for the winter. Those who are from parts of the world where it's unbearably cold toward the end of the year enjoy the pleasantly mild climate of the most progressive emirate of the UAE. The City of Gold also has wonderful offerings for anybody who's looking for a "different" way to celebrate the holidays.
So, if you are seriously considering coming to Dubai to take a break from the bone-chilling cold of winter where you are originally from, there is no doubt a lot of good things are in store for you.
Ready to plan for your winter family trip to Dubai? Provided below is a helpful guide.
● Book your flight and accommodations online now.
Take advantage of the lower cost of early booking for flights and hotel accommodations. Visit different online booking sites to see the best deals that your family can take advantage of.
Also, do not miss out on special offers packages available on airline and hotel websites. For example, one of the best family hotels in Dubai actually has this "Turkey to Go" offer for families that want a traditional Western celebration of the holidays.
If your stay in Dubai falls on the dates coinciding with the American Thanksgiving or Christmas and you are all about upholding tradition, you should book this offer. You can have the festive dinner your family is accustomed to on those important dates.
● Look for tour packages.
There are so many things to do in Dubai, and if you wish to include as many new experiences as you can during your family holiday trip, research tour packages. These provisions already include a suite of highly rated experiences in Dubai and you can be certain that you will enjoy all these experiences because of the efficient scheduling of the tours.
The main advantage of signing up for tour packages is you can "reduce the cost of valuable experiences," especially because you're a group. At the same time, with the schedule created for the tour packages, you can manage your time better and include a bunch of other leisure activities in Dubai that your family may be interested in.
● Make sure to always start your days early.
Since a lot of avid and casual travellers head to the City of Gold during the winter, traffic in the main thoroughfares can get quite crazy.
As much as possible, start your days early. If you're interested in tour packages, consider signing up for those that leave at dawn such as a desert safari tour package that leaves at around 4:00 am so everyone can get on a hot air balloon to see the sunrise. This way, you can avoid being cooped up in a car stuck in traffic.
● Pack your most comfortable footwear.
Winter presents the best climate in Dubai. You can actually walk around and not feel like you are baking under an angry sun, so make sure you have your best walking shoes on. Visit Old Dubai, the Dubai Miracle Garden and, of course, the desert.
With much milder weather, locals, expats, and city visitors typically gather in local parks that are found all across the country, with a lot of them in Dubai. Over the weekends, there are different community events to look forward to at these locations. Try not to miss out on those because they are fun, and you can also make new friends and learn more about local culture.
Also, get ready for the delicious scent of barbecue at the park. Winter is barbecue season for locals. You and your family can take part in a "local tradition" and have your own barbecue picnic at the park as well.
There are local establishments that prepare meat for barbecuing and you can simply buy from them. Or, you can just purchase already cooked barbecue from the stands that normally pop up during the weekends.
It's important to note that some parks are more congested than others. Dubai parks that are main points of interest include Jumeirah Beach Park, Al Safa Park, Al Mamzar Beach Park and Zabeel Park, among others.
● Include shopping in your itinerary.
The winter season means amazing sales at the malls. You will delight in the large discounts for electronic and designer wares in Dubai's various malls.
Also, you will get more enjoyment out of shopping at the local souks because it's not going to be too hot. Take your time haggling with vendors for spices, jewellery, perfume, and household goods.
There are so many things to do with your family and there is always something fun for each one of you to do in this city. So, plan your trip accordingly to get the most out of your winter family holiday in the City of Gold.

REEF Group on the move with CJD Trucks
REEF Group is a young, specialised transportation and freight company on the move in Western Australia, based in Perth.
The business was established in 2002 by Robert O'Keefe, who originally ventured west from Victoria in 1988 and gained considerable industry experience working in heavy vehicle body building, mechanical fitting, and heavy vehicle management and maintenance planning.
Robert remains a strong, vocal advocate for safety in the industry and developed the unique and globally patented Container Loading and Unloading System (CLOS), offering the safest method of 20-foot sea container transport via tilt tray. It has helped set the company apart in the industry and been one of the drivers of its success. REEF Group received a Worksafe Award in 2005, was a finalist in the 2015 WA Innovator of the Year, and in 2018 was a finalist in the Australian Small Business Champion Awards.
With a diverse fleet of state-of-the-art side loaders, low loaders, tilt trays and Hiab crane trucks, the company offers machinery, oversize, crane, sea container and intermodal (road, rail and wharf) transport services across the Perth metropolitan area and throughout WA.
Containers are also available for hire and sale, as well as transport for self-pack house relocations, while on-premises storage and trailers for double loading trucks are provided as well.
With more than 40 years of industry experience and adhering to its core values of safety, reliability and professionalism, the REEF Group team prides itself on providing a reliable, faultless service in a timely manner, and which is price competitive.
It has remained steadfast against cutting costs at the expense of driver fatigue or equipment maintenance, company standards that in 2017 contributed to it winning the local shire Chamber of Commerce and Industry Business Excellence Award for Training and Staff Development.
It is this industry experience, dependability and insistence on using the latest technologies that is highly appreciated by REEF Group clients.
All trucks are also fitted with the latest live-tracking equipment, enabling precise information on shipment status at any time and with electronic documentation along the way.
A mainstay of the expanding fleet has been a strong relationship with DAF trucks and distributor CJD Trucks, assisting the business expansion in recent years.
Robert said the company purchased its first DAF CF75 (tilt tray) through CJD Trucks in 2009. Today it has three DAF rigid tilt trays, with another on the way in early 2019, plus three prime movers for a total of seven DAF trucks, comprising most of its fleet.
"The rigid tilt trays are mainly used for transporting the 20-foot shipping containers. The prime movers tow our side loaders, low loaders and semi-trailers,'' Robert said.
"We are venturing into road trains (two semi-trailers) utilising the DAF prime movers to mine locations like up at Newman in WA.''
He said the medium height access to the cabs of the DAF trucks was a major benefit, as REEF Group drivers were in and out of cabs multiple times during the self-loading process with the DAF tilt trays.
REEF Group has never incurred a breakdown over its nine years with the DAF trucks and Robert said the ongoing service and support from the CJD Trucks team was excellent.
"With the CF75 tilt tray truck due to arrive in early 2019, as part of the ordering process we were able to easily change the wheel base length specifically to our requirements, as well as fit suitable fuel tanks.''
"We are also looking forward to the European chassis and full disc brake system that we anticipate will be released soon.''
He said maintenance of the DAF trucks was primarily done by the company's independent mechanics, however for technical matters they were scheduled in with the CJD Trucks service centre.
REEF Group is now targeting further growth, with opportunities in the transport and storage of self-house moves, as well as in deliverable steel house frame services.
The company plans to continue building on its success, including enhancing the self-loading automation of the CLOS, securing premises in regional towns and interstate, and continuing the effort to limit its environmental footprint.

Demi Lovato Releases New Song Following Max Ehrich Split: 'Music Is Always There'
By Rachel McRady 8:04 AM PDT, September 30, 2020
Focus on Sport/Getty Images
Demi Lovato is letting her music do the talking. The 28-year-old pop star has not publicly spoken since the news broke that she'd ended her engagement to Max Ehrich.
On Wednesday, however, Lovato released a heartfelt new track, "Still Have Me," with lyrics that speak candidly about picking herself back up in the aftermath of a broken heart.
"I'm a mess and I'm still broken / but I'm finding my way back / And it feels like someone's stolen / all the light I ever had," Lovato opens the track softly, before belting out the chorus: "I don't have much, but at least I still have me... and that's all I need."
A post shared by Demi Lovato (@ddlovato)
On Tuesday night, Lovato announced her new song on Twitter and Instagram, writing, "Music is always there for me... song in the am."
Music is always there for me... song in the am
— Demi Lovato (@ddlovato) September 30, 2020
News that the "I Love Me" singer and the Young and the Restless star had ended their two-month engagement came out last week. The couple first sparked romance rumors this past March. Ehrich has been very vocal on social media since the split, claiming he found out about the end of his engagement via a tabloid.
He also previously referenced Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson's high profile split, writing, "Please stop trying to 'Thank you, next' me." Grande wrote "thank u, next" -- a song referencing her past relationships -- following the breakup.
On Monday Ehrich posted, "One chapter finally closed this am. And now I turn the page."
A source previously told ET that the former couple's relationship changed after they returned to work after quarantining together amid the coronavirus pandemic.
"Demi and Max's relationship shifted once the couple got back to work and were separated," the source said. "Max is in Atlanta working on set and Demi is in L.A. The couple is used to being together and the separation made [them] realize they were moving too fast."
According to the source, Lovato also felt her fiancé "wasn't being honest about things" at times.
"She's worked very hard to get to a good place and isn't willing to put up with anything that doesn't serve her in a positive way," the source adds. "The breakup was for the best."

Q: Groovy 'as' keyword to implement 2+ interfaces I would like to implement a Glazed List that has both an AdvancedTableFormat and WritableTableFormat interface.
I am reading here:
http://www.jroller.com/aalmiray/entry/glazedlists_groovy_not_your_regular
and for one interface it seems this is possible in Groovy with the "as" keyword:
# return new EventTableModel(linksList, [
#       getColumnCount: {columnNames.size()},
#       getColumnName: {index -> columnNames[index]},
#       getColumnValue: {object, index ->
#          object."${columnNames[index].toLowerCase()}"
#       }] as TableFormat)

Is it somehow possible to do this for two interfaces? If so how?
Thank you!
Misha

A: You can create a new interface that extends the two interfaces you are interested in.
interface PersonalizedTableFormat extends AdvancedTableFormat, WriteableTableFormat {
}

You can cast the object you return to the new interface.
return object as PersonalizedTableFormat;

A: The "as" keyword is just a fancy way of invoking Groovy's asType(Class) method, which takes only a single Class as an argument. Therefore you can't directly use "as" with more than one interface (unless you take frm's approach and combine the interfaces in one super interface).

A: I wonder if you want to implement 2 or more interfaces on the fly, and do not prefer to 'hard code' like
interface abc extends aaa,bbb,ccc {}?
May be you can try the following code:
import static java.util.Collections.sort
def doClose(Closeable c){
    c.close();
}
def o = new Object()
o.metaClass{
    compare{Object a,String b-> return a.size() - b.size()};
    close{println 'Lights out - I am closing'};
}
o = new ProxyGenerator().instantiateDelegate([Comparator, Closeable], o)
def items = ['a', 'bbb', 'cc']
sort(items, o);
println items;
doClose(o);
println o.class.getInterfaces();

While this blog is primarily about food ethics and politics, it has also always been a space for my broader musings on life, ethics, love, and politics. And so today I'm choosing to share something intimate – my beloved Lover's and my newly updated (or corrected) vows that we made to each other last weekend on the occasion of our 25th wedding anniversary.
We thanked both sets of our parents for their examples of enduring coupledom – the highs and lows, feelings of joy, sorrow, and anger… relationships are sometimes great and sometimes shite.
Watching our folks our whole lives has taught us that longevity is to no small extent built on how you respond to each other and to external stresses, how well you forgive each other your trespasses and undesirable idiosyncrasies, and whether you choose to fully see and embrace each other's beauty and strengths.
I will preface this further by acknowledging that we have not always been kind to each other, and we have not always been our best selves. Our willingness to forgive each other must be one of the foundations of the longevity of our love and long-standing relationship. But here we are, 25 years married (27.5 together), vowing afresh how to best navigate and celebrate another 25 years together.
Without further ado, forever I do.
I vow to always be kind. When I'm tired, when I'm sad, when I'm angry, when I'm stressed, or when I'm busy, I will still be kind.
I show kindness in my eyes – I vow to look at you with love and respect, no matter how I feel, because I love you and respect you deeply.
I show kindness with my voice – I vow to speak to you with love and respect in my voice, no matter how I feel.
I show kindness with my acts – I vow to help you be who you want to be and do what you want to do by being there when you need me, hugging you when you need a hug, and letting you go when you need to go. By doing the dishes when you're tired, and at least sometimes greeting you with a nice lunch when you come in from the boning room.
I make sure you always have water in your truck, I give you coffee in the right cup to suit your mood and caffeine desires each day, and I vow to butter your toast all the way to the edges. I vow to remember that your hearing is more sensitive than mine and place dishes and pans down gently.
I show kindness by remembering what you like and what you don't. I vow to never buy merlot again, to pick you jonquils when they first bloom in the dam paddock before the cattle can eat them, and to sometimes put more than just lettuce in the salad. I vow to serve others before myself, and to wait until everyone is served before I start to eat.
I am not a word person, but I know words are important to you. I vow to find words to tell you when I'm stressed, when I'm angry, when I need your or someone else's help to solve a problem. I vow not to punish you with silence, and to just give you a hug when I can't find the right words.
I vow to be present – to listen when you speak to me, to respond to what's said, and to take joy in time spent together. I vow not to waste time on negative emotions, because life is short and I want to enjoy every minute of our lives.
I have loved you for most of my life, and I vow to love you for the rest of my life.
I show kindness with my acts – I vow to help you be who you want to be and do what you want to do by being there when you need me, hugging you when you need a hug, and letting you disappear to the paddocks or another project in the shed when you need to. By helping to plant more trees and by feeding you before you get hangry.
I show kindness by remembering what you like and what you don't. I cook your eggs to over medium and fry yours when poaching mine, I keep nuts out of your salad, and schedule orthodontist appointments on days when I can take the kids so you don't have to. I take them shopping for shoes so you don't have to enter a shop, and ensure there's plenty of fruit in the house for your morning hit.
I am a word person, and I know that you are not. I vow to accept that you don't always have the words to say what you feel, and to help you find them with kindness and love, and to just accept a hug when the words simply aren't there. I vow to accept that not all silence is punishment, and that sometimes you need me to be silent too when your head is elsewhere solving a problem.
'What's this bit then?' asked Bron. 'Err, brisket? No, blade!' I hazard to guess after scrutinising the MLA cut poster for the 107th time. This was on Saturday. By Monday, I was naming unidentified cuts 'pirate fillet'. So. Much. Beef.
As you'll recall, this year we're only eating our own meat here on the farm, and so a couple weeks ago we butchered our first steer with only a poster, an English butchery book and an Australian video as our guides. Oh, and youtube, when the internet was fast enough. NBN anyone?
My butcher told me I was crazy, and I told him to be more optimistic. Turns out we were both right, I'm crazy, but optimism pays off. So do knife skills, perseverance, and a strong back.
It wasn't just me – I had Stuart, my dear friend Bronwyn, and 13-year-old amazing son Oscar to help on Saturday. Sunday was just me and Oscar while Stuart did pork deliveries and dropped Bron back at home.
So we started with a forequarter. No matter which way I looked at it, it a) wasn't a pig, and b) didn't look like any of my butchery instruction pictures.
Sure, I made the first cut okay, but then it was all just 'soooooo, I'll just follow *that* muscle…' Seriously, though, when Stuart cut the first osso buco, I was totally sold.
If some brisket was mislabelled as chuck, or blade as brisket, I can live with that – we know it's all muscle meat and will cook it accordingly. As the first cuts slid into the cryovac bags, the satisfaction of the 2013 Our Meat Is Real project hit full force. Not just pigs anymore, we're now self sufficient in beef and pork, and soon we'll be adding lamb to our repertoire – amazing!
As we moved along the first half of the beast, things got more exciting, if only because who can't identify a rib eye when they see one?! And just as it is with the pigs, it's very useful to learn just how little of this prime cut you get from one steer, and why it's therefore so prized. I'll be cooking these with reverent joy in the months to come – and I reckon each one can feed about four people!
The flank was also easy to identify, but if you think this section of the carcass went more quickly, you might be wrong as sawing through beef bones (phở!') is really hard work.
The first hindquarter was also rather daunting – it's a lot bigger than a ham!
We finished up around 6pm, washed our hands and faces, and dashed off to our mate Cait's 40th with a bunch of freshly butchered ribs and the first tenderloin, which we barbecued very simply with salt, pepper and olive oil. It was fun to regale everyone with our amateur efforts, and the beef was as well received as the few pork chops we also brought along in a marinade of plum sauce, soy, and star anise.
One thing I won't do again, I think, is start at the middle on the second half. My brain is perhaps too linear, but I should have repeated the pattern I did the first time and started at the forequarter. As I was still trying to work all the cuts out, jumping around led to extra unnecessary confusion in an already confusing job!
Straight to the ribs we went, though, cutting out a scotch fillet roast this time instead of individual rib eye steaks. I left it intentionally big in anticipation of a lovely winter feast with a large group of friends… who don't seem in short supply when they hear there's Jonai meat on the menu!
While it was much slower going with only two of us to cut, Oscar was a marvel of knife skills, and served diligently as Chief Trimmer all day. He can trim the silverskin off a cut with less waste than any of the rest of us, I'm proud to report.
This is also where I realised a mistake I was making all along – I trimmed off too much fat. 🙁 There are different sorts of fat on cattle, and without an experienced butcher to guide me, I sort of just fell into a habit of trimming most of it off, much to my later dismay when I sat back and thought about it. We love fat – fat is flavour! Nick Huggins was quick to point out the error of my ways on Facebook, and I'll certainly do that differently next time.
As we were cutting the final forequarter around 5pm on Monday night, I carved out a brisket roast, browned it off in my cast iron, chucked in an onion, some lovely Angelica organic garlic and rosemary plucked from the garden, and poured a bottle of Stuart's homebrew dark IPA over it, then popped it in a low oven for three hours.
I do look forward to the next steer, though it will be nearly a year before we need another one for our own consumption, we think. I also look forward to doing it with a coolroom at my disposal, and a fully fitted out boning room, including a bandsaw!
If you'd like to support our efforts to become skilful, local butchers of our own meat, in a facility we'll also make available to other smallholders like ourselves, check out our Pozible project to crowdfund a boning room here on the farm!
According to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, 42 is the answer to the meaning of life, the universe and everything. And because that book is based on science, I know it's true. So because today I am 42, I now know the answers, and I'm going to share them, even if it's cheating to share with those of you yet to reach this meaningful age.
The first answer is that *of course* I don't *really* have the answers, but I'm ready to take a stab at it. This is a shamelessly self-indulgent post, because it's my blog, and my birthday, and because one of the answers is 'be fearless' or at least act like you're fearless.
We've all seen wise words tendered by the elderly as they near death, my favourite of which is 'never regret the things you did, only those you didn't'. I try to live by that one. I don't always succeed, either in doing rather than not, nor in resisting the lure of regret. But I try. And I've been trying since I was young, just ask my parents. I'm not interested in figuring life out right as I leave it. I conduct the Deathbed Test on most of my decisions.
I apply the Regrets Rule to food. Last week I ate some cheese and bacon cheezels at work. They were profoundly unsatisfying, leaving my mouth with a cloying sheen of artifice the likes of which I'd not known since my teens. I don't regret that I ate them. In a way, I'm glad I did – now I know what I'm 'missing'. I'll stick with almonds, thanks. Had I not eaten that little fundraising bag of frankenfood, I would have wondered whether some secret, salty pleasure lurked inside the foil. Five minutes of a poor choice, six orange, sticky digits, and seven cheezel-lurid teeth later, I knew. So what, I ate some bad food. It's not like I live on it.
Blood. It drains from our face when we're shocked, flushes our cheeks when we're embarrassed, heats our veins, and is chilled by bad news. Blood is reputed to offer immortality to those who would drink it, and its symbolism is potent enough to ostracise women through history during their monthly flow.
Blood is life's most basic building block, and yet most of us never think to feed it.
The only time I remember consciously 'feeding my blood' was when a bad case of influenza left me with the white blood cell count of a leukemia victim. As well as my usual whole foods diet, I included vegetable juices every day with a slice of aloe vera in them as I read that aloe boosts liver function (that great engine room for healthy blood cells). Once healed, I returned to feeding my soul, nurturing my family, and winning hearts with vast feasts. I forgot all about blood once again.
Every year it's the same. 'Mama, what do you want for your birthday?' is answered with 'for all of you to be lovely to me and each other for the entire day, and you could make me brekky…' with hopeful eyes. This year surpassed my wildest expectations as my dear elder children (aged 11 and 10) made me (and Stuart and his parents) brekky, lunch AND dinner. And folks, it wasn't tea and toast.
It was a beautiful Sunday and all I wanted to do that day was work on pig-proofing the fences in the first pig paddock.
A happy birthday girl, out fencing.
And so when the kids started menu planning the night before I was delighted, but anticipated the need for a fair bit of adult assistance during the day. They chose their recipes from the wonderful Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Cooking with Kids, which does an excellent job of being thorough in its descriptions without being patronising or pitching too low. Every recipe we've used from this cookbook has been delicious!
Shortly after sunrise they were at work on brekky – baked eggs with spinach, herbs and tomato, served on the sourdough I'd made the night before. They had a little bit of assistance from Stuart with managing the 10-inch cast-iron frypan, but that was about all. And wait for it… Oscar roasted and ground the cumin seeds in the mortar and pestle. Most of my adult friends don't do that!
The meal was delicious – truly great flavours and textures as one would expect from experienced cooks. I was overwhelmed with gratitude for the skills, patience and love from my children and in heaven at the result!
Out to fencing we went, and the kids commenced almost immediately on lunch. They worked away cheerfully, only pausing to enjoy the luscious almond chocolate cake for morning tea made by Nana Ros with Atticus' help.
If we thought brekky was impressive, lunch knocked me out. Oscar made falafels, once again toasting and grinding cumin and coriander seeds, and fried them beautifully as Antigone made fresh pitas – pointing out to us that she made the dough by hand as the stand mixer was full of dough for that night's calzone.
They chose to make a selection of dips as accompaniments: hummus, guacamole and pico de gallo, all served beautifully on a platter with fresh capsicum and wedges of lemon. In fact, their presentation was as flawless as their flavours. Once again, I was blown away, as were Stuart and his parents.
Surely they couldn't top all that with dinner? Well, in fairness, I wouldn't say they topped it, but dinner was equally delicious – a herb and cheese calzone served with tabbouleh. The only help on this one was that I put a sourdough on for them in the morning with a little commercial yeast to speed the rise. As the adults were still working outside through until dinnertime, they had no help at all with dividing, rolling, filling and cooking the calzone, nor with cooking the bulgur.
As we sat there sated and raving about their efforts for the day, my awesome pair hopped up and quickly whipped up some lemon crepes for dessert. Yes, I'm serious.
To what would I attribute this display of skills and showering of love from my much-beloved children? I can give the obvious answer that they've cooked with both Stuart and me since they could stand on a chair at the butcher's block, and that in our house cooking is definitely a way to show love.
But a really important ingredient in their success had nothing to do with me – and that's Stephanie Alexander's Kitchen Kitchen Garden program (and no, I don't work for them!).
We tried to get the program into our old school but a resistant Principal (thankfully now retired) thwarted the Council's best efforts. But at the kids' new school there is a thriving kitchen garden program with wonderful teachers. Oscar and Antigone had each had one class before my birthday. One class was all it took for their confidence to click – and I think the fact that Oscar's class had made falafels and tabbouleh that week gave the level of familiarity he needed when they searched the recipes. But they'd never made baked eggs, I can assure you, and we've always made calzones together, as we have pita (and other) breads. They're dip makers from way back, but new users of the food processor, though I saw no signs of uncertainty!
So was this the best birthday ever? It just may have been (though last year's Gala de Tammois was pretty amazing too…). I was well worked, well fed, and well loved, with the added feel-good bonus of thinking I must have done something right to get such great kids. What a perfect balance, making for a very very happy day.
I am one lucky Mama. Thank you, Jonai kids!
As regular readers are well aware, now we are farmers. And so Jonai Farms must have its own website, of course, where I've decided to blog our adventures in farming.
Posted on October 1, 2011 November 18, 2012 Categories agriculture, ethical, family, farming, food, Jonai Farms, local, produce, sustainable, The Hedonist Life4 Comments on Welcome to Jonai Farms!
Rhythms are so much better than schedules. One day might be at a super fast tempo, the next a slow, dreamy waltz. As someone who has never enjoyed regular schedules, I revel in developing rhythms.
In cooking, as in life, rhythms should respond to the seasons. When warmth comes from the sun, it's the season for light, sharp chopping and cold, crunchy vegetables. When the woodstove warms the hearth, it's time for slow-simmering stews, endless loaves of bread and a bottomless pot of chai.
Jonai Farms is teaching us its rhythms. Frosty mornings call for a hot oven to bake the sourdough that rose overnight as we watch another perfect sunrise.
Days that can't break 10C beg for a chai station on the woodstove, which also doubles as a temperature regulator for the nighttime yoghurt making brought on by the endless supply of fresh milk from a local dairy.
A farmer's life of physical toil from sun-up to sundown justifies fresh eggs daily on the morning's sourdough with thick lashings of butter, and sometimes Greenvale Farm's most excellent bacon.
Warm days invite us out for lunches al fresco, but the mercury drop that trails just behind sunset demands enamelled cast iron be filled with luscious lamb shanks, a huge pot of dahl, or cinnamon-spiked chili.
When a big storm knocks out the power for the night, break out the hurricane lamps and shift that osso bucco out of the electric oven and onto the gas stovetop.
A couple days of meaty wintery dishes lead us naturally back to gado gado or palak paneer kofta.
And no matter where we are or what the season, 'peace and happiness begin, geographically speaking, where garlic is used in cooking' (Marcel Boulestin).
These are the rhythms making the Jonai happy beyond our wildest expectations of farm life. What a privilege to be both grateful beneficiaries and mindful custodians of the land.
As for Road Trip USA, it was an incredibly enriching, grounding experience for all five Jonai, bringing us closer and teaching us things together in a sustained way that just doesn't happen in the banal confines of home, with all its attendant work, school and social distractions.
Would we recommend driving across a country in a small RV with three kids? Absolutely – we adjusted rather quickly to living in a small space, cooking with limited gear, and coping without air-conditioning in a heat wave. Okay, we never *really* adjusted to that, but we did learn to put up with it.
Having sold the RockVan at the end of the trip on eBay for slightly less than we paid for it, the trip didn't turn out to be *too* expensive – cheaper than if we'd hired an RV and cheaper than staying in hotels as well as hiring or buying a car. Being in between paying rent and a mortgage also made the trip achievable (not to mention Stuart working two jobs for the previous 2 years…).
Thank you to the wonderful people we met along the way who made the trip more interesting, warm and full of great learning, and big hugs to my extensive mob of family in Oregon and California.
Dictionaries should define 'breathtaking' as 'Oregon rivers', an obvious double entendre for the initiated.
And if it's not the rivers that make you gasp, there are the mountains — either steep or rolling bristling with acres upon acres of deep-green conifers.
Unlike Colorado or Utah's eye-popping grandeur though, Oregon's beauty is exquisitely banal — it's perfectly inescapable, joyfully simple, and utterly lovely.

2017 was really my first serious year of garment sewing. It's crazy to think how much my me-made wardrobe has grown in just a year. It's hard to pick just 5 which is a good thing! In no particular order, these are the 5 makes that made the most impact on my wardrobe or me as a sewist this year.
Okay, I've talked all about my love for this jacket here. Like the Granville shirt, this was a HUGE sewing confidence booster. It's the most complicated thing I've made to date and it turned out beautifully. I learned to install all sorts of hardware, which is seriously easier than sewing a button hole. I wear this jacket at least a couple times a week, and I always feel effortless and cool in it. Win.
This turned out to be my most worn dress all year and my favorite dress pattern (which I talked about here). I love the faux wrap bodice, and the slim skirt silhouette. I narrowed the skirt a bit from hips to waistline instead of leaving it as a straight rectangle, which took out some of the gathers and gives it a more flattering shape I think. The large scale print is perfect for the maxi length and I love how this dress rides that line between dressed up and dressed down. It's often the first thing I reach for after doing laundry, which is probably the highest praise clothes get!
I talked about this dress here, so I'll just give you the highlights: crazy beautiful color, awesomely flattering neckline, dramatic skirt perfect for dancing, cool contrast bias hem. Bonus: getting all the compliments on your dress all night and being able to say "thanks, I made it". I felt my confidence as a sewist really level up with this one.
Okay, so this is more than one garment, but I'm really nothing if not a rule bender. This pattern has been such a game changer for me. Having high quality, well-fitting t-shirts honestly makes getting dressed in the morning so easy. I don't know about you, but I was getting pretty damn tired of flimsy H&M shirts that get holes in them in a few months. And it felt so wasteful. These Agnes tees have become the workhorses of my wardrobe, and I can't see that changing anytime soon. My favorite outfit in the summer is an Agnes tee and a Hollyburn skirt, which I professed my undying love for here.
That's all for today friends! I'll be back in a few days for the rest (the misses, highlights, reflections and goals)!
Prev Year of the Sleeve?
You are so sweet! And that means so much coming from you (I mean, you're basically a sewlebrity, haha). I remember being so inspired by that cotton and steel hollyburn skirt you made a few years ago, that I straight up copied (and wear all the time in the summer). Thanks for all that you do to add to our wonderful, little community!
