Heart Shaped Poop And Pregnancy

Cook

Turpo Emilio (1963 -)

Although some believe that the office is another more oldest in the world, I would say that cooking is older if at least go to the couple. I guess since the invention of fire, and not whether on purpose or by accident humans began to consume foods that getting in a somewhat more sophisticated over time and with the exchange of ideas was complicating the matter is up to the cuisine we know today.

Over the years, both in the way of life as by advances in kitchen utensils and menus were changing as it went from an almost "talk" with the ingredients, touch , study and devote time to a here and here I catch you not devote as little time and I'm sure not to taste them as they deserve. There is more to see the TV ads we offer these wines esblanquiñaos (Faded and sad), that chicken without concern or interest to get into a bag and adding a concoction in the oven, the rice that gets two minutes in the microwave and presto, etc. etc.

No, that's not cooking, cooking is first think of the menu, then choose the ingredients, prepare them with good style, using cooking as long as necessary .... or whatever it is, cooking with interest and love the food processing deserve. And so I like to cook for me, so when I called my friend Marian and offered me to prepare sourdough a cake it takes to be ten days, was delighted.

The offer of a cup of the biscuit dough she was working on was accompanied by his good wishes for luck and health. That sharing of food as a sign of friendship and only if it is, now we all live too fast and too caught up in our own world and delivers simple as this even draws attention to a forgotten and unknown to others.

I can not give them each a glass of dough, but if I can pass the biscuit recipe which some call the Carmelite Barefoot and others of Padre Pio and I will now call "the ten days." And with the recipe I give you my best wishes for luck and health for all.


RECIPE

10 days are required for processing. Without using blender or refrigerator.

---- Day 1 Pour the contents of the glass delivered in a container and add a cup of sugar and one of flour. DO NOT MIX

Day 2 --- Mix with a spoon

Day 3 - NO SE TOCA

day 4- NO SE TOCA

Day 5-Adding a cup of sugar, milk and one other meal. DO NOT MIX

-Day 6 Mix with a spoon

-Day 7 NO SE TOCA

day 8- NO SE TOCA

Day 9- NO SE TOCA

day 10 He departs from the mass obtained three vessels to be delivered to three people to wish luck and health. The remaining dough add

2 cups flour 1
or ½ cup sugar (to taste)
oil 1 cup
1 cup milk
1 cup walnuts or almonds
1 cup seedless raisins floured previously
1 envelope yeast 1 block
chopped 1 pinch salt
1 pinch cinnamon 1
orange peel 2 eggs
Mix with a spoon and bake at 170 º 40-45 minutes between

Y now as one would expect I'll give my opinion on the cake after it is done:

a) is very good

b) would make some changes in the amounts to be added on day 10 and are as follows:

sugar ½ cup would only
oil filled jar for
half cup walnuts
half cup raisins

The rest as indicated by the recipe.

Although apparently this is an ancient recipe, my attention is used 1 packet of yeast, I rather I think their time would use a mixture of baking soda and cream of tartar that was what was used before appearing on Royal.

I can not give the actual test so you'll have to settle for enjoying it by this picture.



Bon appetit!

How Long Could You Have Trichomonias And Not Know

Curiosity killed the cat

Quiet this time not about cats, is that like many cats die from curiosity, some people also. In this case I am referring to Pliny the Elder.

If we listen to what his nephew, Pliny the Younger, has in some letters, when there was the eruption of Vesuvius, his uncle commanded the Roman fleet stationed at Miseno and from there you could see a large cloud that arose seemed a mountain rising to the sky high changing height and color and sometimes white and sometimes saw darkened until it becomes black.

All watched with curiosity and Pliny thought it would be very interesting to watch the phenomenon more closely and without thinking twice ordered him to prepare a fast ship to go by sea to the place where the column is smoke. When I was about to board, receives a message from some friends which they resided at the foot of the mountain and they had no escape to be able to do so by sea. So somewhat disguised their curiosity about the phenomenon with the heroic rescue some friends helping out a desperate situation so they can save their lives.


But fate unwisely helped by showing some people end up triggering the tragedy. Rage of Vesuvius had been infected with the sea to be shaking like crazy by earthquakes, and wind blowing onshore hampering departure of the boats. And while all that was left in a hurry in the area, Pliny command of their ships were heading to the disaster site with the intention of seeing the phenomenon of near and save those who could. As they approached the coast began to fall on the ash and stone vessels increased making it difficult to approach the beach, so he decided to change course despite the advice given him by the pilot to pull back and come out of there as soon as possible, he, feeling more of a hero than ever, ordered the course change and head home from Pomponiano Stabiae.

This was seeing things all their belongings were loaded on boats and just hoping the wind change in a hurry to leave leaving that hell. The wind prevented Pomponiano pushed out to Pliny to the coast. They met, hugged and Pliny tried to calm and it behaved as if the danger were not so great. Calls to his slaves that will prepare the bath, then dinner and then quietly retire to bed.
Meanwhile
unstoppable lava and fires down multiplied, but Pliny was determined not to see the danger trying to convince everyone that they were bonfires left by the peasants in their flight. But not only was the fire that posed a threat, the worst beginning to be the large amount of ash that covered everything at high speed. And if this were not enough, the earthquakes were afraid that the buildings collapsed so they decided to wait outside where the danger was not minor.

And I say that it was less because the shower of stones was being forced to put large pillows tied to the head that they would avoid a bump. Imagine for a moment the scene caught on the coast without being able to ship for the sea and wind prevented him, earth movements that were threatening the stability of the buildings massive ash fall could not breathe and that little is mislead left them buried, dark growing prevented them from seeing a few feet until became such that nothing could be seen, providing more than fear terror increased when they heard the screams of each other trying to locate family and friends.

Pliny, perhaps the most serene of all, I decided to approach the beach to see if they could get out, but the sea he made it clear that no, nothing escapes by sea, were in a trap and there would. Suddenly our hero began to feel ill, called fresh water and leaned back a moment and then trying to recover with the help of two slaves managed to get up but only for a moment, he collapsed and did not get up and found him there days later. Its curious to see about the phenomenon and its desire to heroism cost him a great price. Your life.

For many years the ashes and silence reigned in Pompeii, then invented and tourism its streets, buildings or what's left of them are filled with noise every day but when the tourists leave with their cameras and their voices, emptiness and silence returns to take over the city.

Its cobbled streets lined with dilapidated buildings that may long for their former inhabitants.


these streets provided with pedestrian crossings to facilitate the shift from side to side


the much traveled road to the forum


are also silent bakery and cereal mills



and not just the bakery, the Macellum which was the great market hall in the center
was a fountain to wash fish


and forum was the heart of the city



with its temple dedicated to Jupiter


and spas where dusty still can see these telamons that frame the niches in the tepidarium, warm room that had a bronze brazier
large

silent but fierce attitude is the dog tied to the string that keeps the house of the Tragic Poet, one beautiful mosaic with the inscription Cave Canem (beware of the dog)


what is left of those buildings that embellished luxury the city? One of the best was The House of the Faun, whose name was given because one of its courts had a faun who seemed to greet with joy inviting you to everyone who passed. We can still see it there as if time had stopped driving to the reception room paved with a mosaic depicting the Battle of Issus




finally, Pompeii through its ruins and its silence still speaks of the tragedy for so many centuries succeeded

Is There Sage Tea Bags Selling In Malaysia

Saved

While many people do not treat animals well and cares about them, it is fair to recognize that there are other people that if they do and today I'm going to tell a story of dedication and interest to save four newborn cheetahs, as was told to me.

Once upon a time, at a zoo in the New Zealand city of Christchurch called Orana Park, a first-cheetah mother was giving birth. Terrified by the sudden pain and small lumps four strangers waved and wailed at his feet, the cheetah, disoriented, he decided that he preferred to leave his lair and continue with your normal life, leaving the puppy and refusing to go near them, put to the breast or act in any way like her mother.


Caregivers of cats in Orana Park knew that it was a desperate situation: the potential survival of 4 cheetah cubs of just one day without milk and the care of his mother, are almost nil. However, not surrendered, and decided to do everything possible to save the lives of these four creatures, three males and one female.


For months, the cubs needed constant care 24 hours a day. Two caregivers were selected as "adoptive moms" of the pups, and in shifts of 12 hours devoted to care for, feed and clean the puppies. This is not an easy task, as the baby cheetah are completely helpless, and unable even to their needs by themselves. It is usually the mother who encourages the young to pee or poop licking the bum. As an alternative, caregivers tried all sorts of tricks, until finally got that small needs were asked for wiping the ass with a towel.


Puppies should be fed every hour, and considering that there were four, and the time it took to feed each of them, I can imagine that the 12-hour shifts were exhausting.


However, these efforts bore fruit, and in an almost miraculous, got four puppies survived and were growing strong and healthy.


Today, cheetahs have four brothers and 20 months and living happy, playing, running and making mischief in Orana Park Zoo, and here come to meet us for us to enjoy a moment of company.



you ever been so close to a cheetah?




Time to say goodbye, the cheetah is a little sad and expected to return soon to visit.



Lucia Thanks for the pictures and the story!
