Derby Y'all: French Toast Casserole with Bourbon Crème Anglaise
This week was y'all filled. Seriously y'all filled. I was a guest on Paula Deen's Best Dishes on Saturday and Monday on Food Network. And, the May issue of her magazine, Cooking with Paula Deen has a feature on me with my recipe for French Toast Casserole. She was really, really nice. We had a blast. She called me a "hell of a chef" and said "I could put my shoes beside her stove or under her table any day." Nice!
This recipe is great for breakfast, brunch, and I will also be featuring it as a dessert this week at May-Gration, a fundraiser for the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts hosted by the Blue Heron in Sunderland, Massachusetts. I'm thrilled to be a part of this. It's a North-South thing, featuring recipes from my book and tasty morsels from owners Chef Deborah Snow and Manager Barbara White. The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts distributes approximately 6.4 million pounds of food to more than 100,000 people in the community every year. Click on May-Gration above to check it out.
So, check out this month's issue of Cooking with Paula Deen. Give my French Toast Casserole a try for breakfast, brunch, or even as dessert. It'd be a great make-ahead dessert for a Kentucky Derby Party served with Bourbon Crème Anglaise. (How often to do you get to say bourbon and breakfast in the same paragraph? Hmm.)
Speaking of bourbon. I got to meet Parker Beam earlier this month at a bourbon tasting at a conference. That's right, BEAM, as in related to Jim BEAM. His ding-dang ancestor INVENTED bourbon in Kentucky. He's now the master distiller at Evan Williams. I was in the presence of greatness.
And, yes, I got his autograph. 😉
Bon Appétit, Y'all!

French Toast Casserole with Bourbon Crème Anglaise
When my sister and I were young, our favorite mornings were when Mama would prepare French toast for breakfast. The smell of butter, kissed with cinnamon, combined with the heady scent of sizzling egg was a most welcome greeting as we bounded down the stairs. For breakfast, this version is made the night before, so you won't find yourself camped in front of a hot griddle in the early morning, groggy and in need of caffeine. The next morning, remove it from the fridge to take the chill off. Grab a cup of coffee and pop it in the oven. By the time the table is set, the family is assembled, and you're ready for your second cup, breakfast is ready. Brioche and challah are yeast breads, rich with egg and butter, and make superlative French toast.
For dessert, make it early in the day, or even a day ahead. It's bread and eggs, y'all. We're not solving life's mysteries, and nothing will "go wrong" if it's in the fridge for a day or so. Just remember to remove it from the fridge to take the chill off about 30 minutes before you cook it. Serve it warm or room temperature.
Ingredients4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar1 loaf brioche or challah, sliced11/2 inches thick (about 11/2 pounds)8 large eggs, lightly beaten1 cup whole milk1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/4 teaspoon ground gingerPinch of salt1/2 cup chopped pecansConfectioners' sugar, for accompanimentSorghum, cane, or maple syrup, for accompanimentBourbon Crème Anglaise (makes 3 cups)2 cups whole milk6 large egg yolks1/4 cup sugarPinch of fine sea salt1 tablespoon bourbon
- Combine the melted butter and brown sugar in a baking dish. Arrange the bread slices in the dish. Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Pour over the bread, letting it soak in. Top with the pecans. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Let the chilled casserole stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Bake until browned and set, 30 to 45 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool slightly. Sift over confectioners' sugar. Serve hot or warm with sorghum, cane, or maple syrup.For the Bourbon Crème Anglaise:
- Make an ice bath by filling a large bowl halfway with ice cubes and water.
- In a saucepan, bring the milk almost to a boil over medium heat. In a second saucepan, blend together the egg yolks, sugar, and salt with a wooden spoon until thick and light (be careful not to make the mixture foamy). Mix in half the hot milk, then transfer the mixture to the other saucepan with the remaining milk and blend. Add the bourbon.
- Decrease the heat to low and simmer gently, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Continue stirring the custard until thick enough to coat the back of the spoon and the mixture reaches 180°F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove from the heat.
- Set a sieve over a large, clean bowl and pass the custard through the sieve.
- Place the bowl in the ice bath, and stir the custard until it has completely cooled. Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Store the custard in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.3.1http://blog.virginiawillis.com/2009/05/derby-yall-french-toast-casserole-with-bourbon-creme-anglaise/Recipe by Virginia Willis © 2014 www.virginiawillis.com

Spring Fever: Lamb Stew with Spring Vegetables
It's raining today, not real rain – just the drizzle that makes the sofa look so very inviting. And, it's just cool enough that a stew is the perfect Sunday supper.
Here's a wonderful recipe for Lamb Stew with Spring Vegetables. I like to use the shoulder because the meat is flavorful with just enough fat so that the meat stays moist. As tempting as it may be, don't purchase the lamb that is already cubed. It's usually the leftover bits and pieces, often from different areas of the animal.
I absolutely adore turnips. Some of the farmers in my area are growing hakurei turnips. They are delicious raw. They are tender, very crisp and fresh, not bitter at all, almost sweet. Frankly, I have to buy 2 bunches because I always eat one on the way home! Nope, don't even wash them! Just rub the dirt off on my shorts! Regular turnips will do, of course. And, as a matter of interest, do recommend washing them!
Bon Appétit Y'all!
PS – I also send out a newsletter including a recipe every 4 weeks or so. I don't do anything rude like sell or rent your name, and I don't bug your with gobs of emails, so please sign up today!

Most Delicious Deviled Eggs
I took the above photograph a few weeks ago at the Chapel Hill Farmer's Market. It was a rainy Saturday morning, overcast and cool. The light can be so nice on days like that. I just love this photo, but I can't claim too much credit. At this farmer's market, like many, there was not much to do. Just point and shoot! I would really like to take photography classes. (In my spare time! Ok – maybe a reward for when I complete my second book proposal.)
These deviled eggs are amazing. It's very important to puree the yolk mixture completely, and really I prefer using a sieve or tamis. This prevents lumps and makes the mixture so much smoother as well as prettier. This is another one of those recipes that there are very few ingredients which makes the technique is so important.
I made these once for a political fundraiser at my friend Melita Easter's house, attended by the governor of Georgia, who stood there and practically ate the whole plate. The secret is butter, a tip I picked up in culinary school that takes this Southern staple from delicious to sublime and renders people unable to use the sense God gave a cat to stop eating. (more…)
Easter Feast: Herb-crusted Fresh Ham
I've had great success with my newsletter and after a few sessions at IACP last week have decided to venture into the blogosphere. I thought I would start with sharing a recipe for Easter.
Bon Appétit Y'all!
Herb-crusted Fresh Ham
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
- 1/2 teaspoon dried untreated lavender flowers
- Half of a fresh bone-in ham 6 to 8 pounds, preferably shank end, with skin
- Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups chicken stock or low-fat reduced-sodium chicken broth
To prepare the ham, in a small bowl, combine the thyme, rosemary, tarragon, and lavender. Season the ham with salt and pepper. Rub the herb mixture all over the ham and set aside to marinate and come to room temperature, 30 to 45 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the herb-crusted ham in a roasting pan. Bake approximately 25 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 150°F on an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone, 2 to 21/2 hours. Remove from the oven to a rack. Tent the ham loosely with aluminum foil and let stand until the center of the ham registers 155° to 160°F on the instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, to make the sauce, pour the pan drippings into a fat separator. Remove and discard the fat. Transfer the drippings into a small saucepan to make the jus. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil over high heat. Decrease the heat to medium to keep warm until serving. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
Once the ham has rested, transfer to a cutting board, carve, and serve with the jus on the side.

MANY A BUILDER OF BOUTIQUE AMPLIFIERS has gotten their start repairing
vintage Fender and Marshall amps. Louis Electric's Lou Rosano says that
working on those classics gave him lots of insight into how to design
his own line of amplifiers, which range from virtual clones of Fender's
'50s-era Twins and early-to-mid-'60s Marshalls to hot-rod models with
high-gain preamps. Rosano has made custom amps for Duke Robillard, John
Fogerty, Danny Gatton, and Hubert Sumlin, and he designed the KR M12 for
Keith Richards, who had originally purchased one of Rosano's 25-watt
M12 combos. The more powerful KR M12 (Richards owns two of those) is a
plexi-Marshall/tweed-Fender-influenced design that features a
two-channel preamp with four inputs, and an EL34-powered output stage
(the amp can also accept 6L6s, 5881s, and KT66s). Pretty standard stuff,
but the KR is a surprisingly capable little amp that delivers the
signature tones you get from early Fenders and Marshalls, while also
offering enhanced clean and overdriven response.
The KR's circuit is handwired on a high-grade phenolic board, and all of the pots, jacks, switches, and tube sockets are mounted to the aluminum chassis. The solid-pine cabinet is neatly covered in brown Tolex, and is constructed using half-blind dovetail joints for added strength. To help open up the sound, a quasi baffle made from a piece of birch plywood (which grips the rear mounted speaker) is attached to the inside of the cab's inch-thick front panel.
The KR M12 packs a generous range of sounds, and this is primarily due to the Normal and Gain channels, which let you access a variety of different gain structures. Plugging into Input 1 on the Normal channel provides bright, crisp clean tones at very loud volumes (you can hit at least 7 on the Volume control with the Master cranked), and elicits progressively more saturated tweed-style grind as you sweep the Volume from 8 to 12. Input 2 is voiced slightly darker with a tad less gain, which could be useful if you have an overly bright instrument. If the KR only had the Normal channel it would still be impressive, as it gives you everything from pristine clean to moderately overdriven with a twist of your guitar's volume control.
Input 1 on the Gain Channel ups the gain considerably, and this is where the old Marshall voicing begins asserting itself, yielding tough, tight-bottomed grind at lower settings (think of Keef on "Can't You Hear Me Knocking?"), and stout distortion—perfect for wailing blues or rock leads—as you turn the Volume up past the halfway mark. The KR gets very loud at these settings, and this is where the Master Volume makes its case, as it allows you to bring the level way down without affecting the balance or compromising the dynamic feel.
To further boost the gain, keep your guitar plugged into Input 1 on the Gain channel, and then connect the supplied footswitch (using a standard guitar cable) to Input 2 on the Normal channel. This cool setup allows you to switch between grinding rhythms and very toothy solos—all with excellent articulation and dynamic response. Now if you want to go to the Santana zone, just plug the footswitch into Input 1 on the Normal channel. This produces a big increase in sustain from the cascaded gain stages, along with a bump in volume and a fattening of the lows. And even with all this added gain, you don't lose any of the stringy detail from your guitar. Nice! This configuration is ideal for hard rock or old-school metal, as it allows you to footswitch between crunch and high-gain tones. And regardless of where the Master is set, the jump in level in the high-gain mode is just right for making a solo stand out. The abundance of purring midrange harmonics makes the KR extremely fun to play—especially in its distorted modes—and while the brawny character of the EL34s keeps the overdrive tones pointed in a decidedly Marshall direction, the sounds always clean up well when you turn down your guitar.
The KR M12 pretty much has it all—killer overdrive, rich old-amp grind, exceptional clean headroom. It's compact, yet loud enough for stage gigs, and with such abundant tonal range, it has plenty to offer blues players, country pickers, hard rockers, and even metalheads. The fact that it doesn't have reverb was of little consequence to me—and I dig reverb.
Bottom line: If you like the idea of an antique-looking combo that has you covered for everything from extremely clean to viciously distorted, you'll love what the KR M12 has to offer.

Executive summary
Former Italian Prime Minister has vowed to scrap Italy's property tax if he is elected. Mario Monti's government imposed this unpopular tax.
Full article
Rome - Former Premier Silvio Berlusconi is vowing to scrap Italy's property tax in his first cabinet meeting if elected, zeroing in on Italians' deep distaste for the tax imposed by Mario Monti's government in a bid to raise public coffers.
Berlusconi outlined his latest "contract" with Italians on Friday as he pressed his latest comeback bid, promising a host of reforms and measures to give relief to Italians suffering through a deep recession and youth unemployment at a record 37 percent.
He blamed the reinstatement of the tax on primary residences for Italy's spiral into recession, saying it had decreased property values, halted housing sales and seriously harmed the construction industry.
Berlusconi's center-right coalition is currently trailing the center-left in polls some 27 percent to 38 percent. - Sapa-AP

The 6th edition of the International Diamond Week in Israel, to be held on February 13-16, 2017, will feature several changes in format and additional events which will make it "bigger and better", according to organizers.
In a press release, the Israel Diamond Exchange (IDE) said that it is adding a host of new features, special guests and free attractions, "to make this event even more advantageous to international buyers".
As in the past, hundreds of Israeli and international companies will be exhibiting on the IDE trading floor, offering a large variety of polished and rough goods. Many hundreds of buyers from around the world are expected to participate, with registration proceeding briskly since it was opened this week. As in past years, buyers are being offered free accommodations for three nights in nearby hotels.
The format of the upcoming IDWI has been changed, in line with buyer preferences. This year, trading will take place on the bourse floor from Monday to Wednesday, with Thursday left open for individual meetings within the Diamond Exchange. Alternatively, participants can choose to join free sightseeing tours on that day to Jerusalem or the Dead Sea.
Organizers say that a major attraction will be the important international tenders of rough and polished diamonds that will be held during IDWI. Plans are being finalized to feature tenders by several major producers and diamond auction companies. Moreover, IDE will be inaugurating its International Tender Center during the week.
Israel Diamond Exchange President Yoram Dvash said that he expected the next IDWI to attract hundreds more buyers as well as several world diamond leaders. "We are working very hard to
make the sixth edition of IDWI both bigger and better. This time we are offering more – more traders, more goods, more variety, more business opportunities and more leisure activities. We will be announcing further details as they are finalized. Register now to ensure your place", Dvash said.

After the economic sanctions that the United States and the European Union imposed against Russia, Moscow and Beijing put together an imposing energetic team that has radically transformed the world oil market. In addition to increasing their interchange of hydrocarbons exponentially, both oriental powers have decided to put an end to the domination of the dollar in fixing the prices of the black gold. The petroyuan is the instrument of payment of strategic character that promises to facilitate the transition to a multipolar monetary system, a system that takes various currencies into account and reflects the correlation of forces in the current world order.
In place of humiliating Russia, the "economic war" that Washington and Brussels had promoted was counterproductive, since it only contributed to fortify the energy team between Moscow and Beijing. We recall that in May of 2014 the Russian company Gazprom agreed to supply gas to China up to 38 billion cubic meters annually during three decades (starting in 2018) through the signing of a contract for 400 billion US dollars with the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNCP) [1].

Bringing dainty back! Emmy Rossum makes them green with envy in pretty embroidered dress as she attends Justin Timberlake's album release party
She can always be counted on to bring some much-needed glamour to the red-carpet.
And while many guests at Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience album release party on Monday night opted for more casual trouser and jacket ensembles, Emmy Rossum made them all green with envy in her pretty embroidered dress.
The Shameless star was dainty in her demure cream frock featuring an intricate emerald floral design as she made her appearance at the event inside the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles.
Bringing dainty back: Emmy Rossum wore a pretty cream dress featuring green embroidery as she attended Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience album release party at the El Rey theatre on Monday night
The 26-year-old actress also accentuated the attire by wearing matching green eyeshadow on her eyelids and white polish on her manicured nails.
Emmy rounded out the ensemble with a pair of white stilettos and a simple black clutch bag.
Meanwhile, many other stars opted for the leather look, slipping into tight trousers.
Matching: The 26-year-old actress also accentuated the attire by wearing matching green eyeshadow on her eyelids and white polish on her manicured nails
Cute couple: Twilight star Nikki Reed attended with her husband Paul McDonald, who was wearing an AllSaints denim shirt
Those included Twilight star Nikki Reed, who displayed her slender legs in black waxed jeans paired with a pretty cream long sleeve shirt.
The 24-year-old had the best accessory of all, her husband Paul McDonald, who looked handsome in a Herschel denim shirt from AllSaints, black jeans, brown leather lace-up boots and a black wide-rimmed hat.
Also opting for shiny trousers was singer Jordin Sparks, who showed off her recent 50lbs weight loss in her tight-fitting attire.
Shining things: Nikki wore a pair of black waxed trousers, while Jordin Sparks showed off her slimmed down frame in leather
Casual cutie: Anna Kendrick looked cute and comfortable in her casual attire
Where are the other two?: Only three of the five The Wanted members made it, in the form of (L-R) Siva Kaneswaran, Nathan Sykes and Tom Parker
The 23-year-old also went for tight on top in a white halterneck vest and light grey cropped jacket.
Boosting her already statuesque six foot frame, she wore a pair of black strappy suede sandals.
Holly Robinson Peete also followed suit, pairing her leather trousers with a black lace top and black long-sleeve shirt.
Cheer up pal: Justin attempted to cheer up American Idol host Ryan Seacrest, who reportedly just split up with his girlfriend Julianne Hough
Dapper: Justin arrived for his big bash looking extremely dapper in a black tuxedo featuring satin lapels, paired with a checked black and white shirt, black tie and two-toned monochrome dress shoes
Handsome: Newly single Ryan was suave in his sophisticated attire
Just like Emmy, actress Victoria Justice also stood out from the bunch in her silver sparkling mini dress which showcased her long slender legs.
Man of the hour Justin arrived for his big bash looking extremely dapper in a black tuxedo featuring satin lapels, paired with a checked black and white shirt, black tie and two-toned monochrome dress shoes.
The Sexy Back star posed with Ryan Seacrest who recently reportedly split from his girlfriend Julianne Hough.
Racy: Holly Robinson Peete paired her leather trousers with a black lace top and black long-sleeve shirt
Bright spark: Just like Emmy, actress Victoria Justice also stood out from the bunch in her silver sparkling mini dress which showcased her long slender legs
Guest list: Singer JoJo and American sportscaster Erin Andrews also attended
JT seemingly tried to cheer up the American Idol star who appeared to look somewhat drained and tired.
Following his red-carpet arrival, Justin performed his hit songs at the iHeartRadio's The 20/20 Experience album release party.
Justin has been one busy man the past week with five appearances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and a hosting gig at Saturday Night Live, which aired on March 9.
Crooner: Following his red-carpet arrival, Justin performed his hit songs at the iHeartRadio's '20/20 Experience' album release party
Show stopping: Justin had the crowd eating out of the palm of his hand
Big band: Justin was accompanied by a band and back-up singers
The performances were in promotion of his new album, set for release on Tuesday.
Not to be outdone, his wife Jessica Biel has a new high seas drama The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea that will premiere later this year.
The happy newly weds were married in October and have since barely spent a moment apart.
But she was noticeably absent from Justin's big release party on Monday night.
Prepping: Earlier Justin was seen emerging from his trailer to get ready to walk the red carpet
Practise run: During the day Justin was seen working on sound checks

The guys from Canon asked me if I could do some workshops at the Canon Eos Discovery Days. It was a bit weird for me to do this in front of such a huge and diverse audience in a really short time but it was big fun and I met tons of great people.
For those who couldn't be there or didn't understand my very special interpretation of the French language, I decided to try to replicate my workshop on my blog. 3 new posts are coming up.

The Scottish Ensemble will take up a mini
residency in Shetland from Weds 31 July to Sat 3 August, engaging
with the community in a programme of events including a silent
movie screening and performance, a day of community events all
around the Isles, an afternoon of ballroom dancing and tea, and
culminating in a concert at Mareel which will feature a special
composition about a sea journey from Dundee to Shetland - Seavaigers by Sally
The programme for the Saturday evening
concert aims to create new connections between folk and classical
traditions, interweaving Scots folk with baroque and
20th century string music. The Scottish Ensemble will
team up with folk super-duo Shetlander Chris Stout (fiddle) and
Catriona McKay (Scottish harp), for a programme centring on two
double concertos. This first describes a sea journey from Dundee to
Shetland in Seavaigers, composed by
Sally Beamish specifically for this combination of performers. In
Bach's instantly recognisable Concerto for 2 Violins, Chris Stout
and Catriona McKay join the individual virtuosi of the Scottish
Ensemble in a fresh take on core string repertoire. Tickets for
this concert will go on sale on Saturday 18 May at 2pm via Shetland
Box Office.
The residency in Shetland will kick off
with Faust, a
boundary-pushing night of electronic music, film and live
performance from the Scottish Ensemble and DJ Alex Smoke on
Wednesday 31 July in Mareel's Main Auditorium. Murnau's 1926
expressionist fantasy, Faust, tells the classic
cautionary tale of the deadly consequences of entering into
self-destructive deals with the devil. Paying homage to the musical
accompaniments of the silent film era, DJ Alex Smoke has created a
21st-century soundtrack for electronics and strings bringing this
dark and fantastical film to life. Lauded by the house and techno
communities, Alex's sets blur the boundaries between electronica,
classical and hip hop and have led him to appear across the globe,
including at the prestigious Sonar Festival in
On Thursday 1 August, the Ensemble is
planning an Out & About Day - a day of events and performances
all around the Islands. They are keen for members of the public,
community groups, and local businesses to get in touch with
Shetland Arts to suggest how the Ensemble and its musicians might
best benefit the community. This might be a performance in a
workplace, workshops with young musicians, or care home and
community performances. If the environment is waterproof they are
willing to consider all suggestions! Please email email@example.com
or call 01595 743 843 to register an interest or make a
On 2 August, the Scottish Ensemble will
take up the role of palm court orchestra for a Friday afternoon of
ballroom classics, dancing and afternoon tea in Mareel's Main
Auditorium. Members of the public are invited to choose their
partners and dance to favourites from a golden age performed by the
talented players of the UK's only professional string orchestra
while enjoying a delicious afternoon tea. During the residency, the
Ensemble will also lead workshops with local musicians and
interested parties.
Scottish Ensemble Chief Executive, Thorben
Dittes said: "Our residencies are all about
developing relationships with communities. We respond to their
individual needs by crafting a tailored programme of on- and
off-platform events specific to the local area. Our collaboration
with Shetland Arts is a dynamic new partnership which has been
generously supported by Inksters Solicitors and Arts and Business
Scotland to benefit the community of Shetland."
The project is sponsored by
Inksters Solicitors, owned by Shetlander Brian Inkster. Brian
said: "After hearing the
premier of Seavaigers
at Celtic Connections in Glasgow in 2012 I thought it was
appropriate for the piece to be performed in Shetland. My law firm,
Inksters, has a strong Shetland connection with us doing legal work
for many Shetlanders from Glasgow. I am delighted to strengthen
that link and help take Scottish Ensemble to Shetland to perform
Seavaigers with Chris
and Catriona."
The Ensemble has been awarded a
New Arts Sponsorship grant to support its work during the Shetland
residency. The grants provide match funding for new arts
sponsors,doubling their sponsorship benefits.
The scheme is funded by the Scottish Government
and delivered by Arts and Business Scotland. David Watt, Chief
Executive, Arts and Business Scotland said: "Inksters Solicitors'
sponsorship of the Scottish Ensemble clearly demonstrates how
business can really benefit from associating with the arts. The New
Arts Sponsorship grant also recognises how this partnership has
empowered the Scottish Ensemble to create an innovative programme
of activities that will engage with a wide variety of audiences
during their residency in
Lisa Ward, Shetland Arts' Marketing
Officer, said: "The Scottish Ensemble is famous internationally for
their ability to inspire audiences with vibrant performances which
are powerful, challenging, and rewarding for all. Shetland Arts is
pleased to work with them to deliver these residency activities in
Shetland and the final concert at Mareel."

Pojoaque Pueblo Delivers Surprise Easter Baskets To Sick Children
Staff Report
Being sick and stuck in a hospital is never fun. Especially for a child. Especially for a child during Easter or Christmas.
For months now a group of Pojoaque Pueblo employees have been working on a plan to help those children who are stuck in the hospital during Easter weekend. Thursday they put their plan into action. After spending months collecting and assembling some amazing Easter baskets, the Pojoaque Pueblo team loaded up a Buffalo Thunder hotel van with over 30 Easter baskets stuffed with toys, games books and chocolate for children of various ages and delivered them to all the sick children at Saint Vincent's Hospital in Santa Fe...
March For Science Saturday April 22
Scientists and non-scientists from across New Mexico are marching together on April 22, 2017 to support science as a pillar for the advancement of human knowledge, progress, and prosperity. Scientists and people who value science are coming together to show that support of science is not a partisan act, but rather an acknowledgment that our understanding of the world becomes deeper, stronger, and more useful when science is robustly supported and kept out of partisan politics.

Scam Alert: AG Balderas Warns New Mexicans About 'Can You Hear Me' Scams
ALBUQUERQUE ― Attorney General Hector Balderas has issued a Scam Alert regarding "Can you hear me" phone scams.
Scammers attempt to get victims to say the word "yes" during a call and later use a recording of the response to authorize unwanted charges on the victim's utility or credit card account.
According to complaints the Office of the Attorney General and the FCC have received, the fraudulent callers impersonate representatives from organizations that provide a service and may be familiar to the person receiving the call...
McCurdy improves to 3-0 in District 2/3-3A
By George Morse Sports and Outdoors
They say that cats have nine lives. The McCurdy Charter School Bobcats likely used up seven of them in their 14-7 victory over the Santa Fe Prep Griffins April 6 at Fort Marcy Park in Santa Fe.
Down 7-3 going into the seventh inning, McCurdy rallied for four runs to tie the game. The Bobcats then battered relief pitcher Shane Unverferth for seven runs in the top of the ninth inning to take a 14-7 victory and improve to 3-0 in District 3/3-3A...

We stayed in the Hotel part of Galatea Sea Palace. The facilities were great, bedrooms were very large and service was generally very good. Breakfast is adequate but limited. Decking area leading out to the sea was lovely. Swimming pool too small for amount of people and in general too many children! This is a place for families and we felt that there was no 'quiet bar' area to escape from the very nosey families. A car is essential.

I normally book hotel reservations on a hotels website but this time I figured I would try Hotwire! Well..this was a mistake! I understand that $68 per night doesn't afford extreme comfort but....this hotel stinks of old mildew and must, the beds were awful, the blanket was made out of sandpaper, air conditioner was so loud and clunking it was unreal! Tiny rooms, no coffee maker, no refrigerator, old musty shower with tile from 1948, filthy dirty blinds, smashed bugs on the walls and ceilings, and again, it STANK. We noticed the room service menu and then realized there is NO PHONE in the room! I booked 3 nights through Hotwire thinking we would have a wonderful time! We drove six hours to get there and left Mackinaw City after one terrible night. I have asthma and the smell in that room was so bad I can't describe it. We ran the air conditioner for seven hours and it didn't help! If you're traveling to Mackinaw City I strongly suggest that you rent a room at a better hotel. I regret trying to save money and I regret booking through Hotwire as they would not refund me even the last day ($68!) nor would the greedy old woman that runs the place! She blamed Hotwire and said they wouldn't refund me and when I called Hotwire they blamed her and said that the hotel does not offer refunds. Beware! My vacation would have been saved had I just driven out there and looked for myself!

The Centennial Visionary Series/In conversation with the Women's National Book Association
Thursday, April 20, 2017
If you're near, I hope to see you. It's free, but a RSVP is hoped for. Read more...
That night a rumor spread that over two hundred migrants had been incinerated when the cinema burned down, children and women and men, but especially children, so many children, and whether or not this was true, or any of the other rumors, of a bloodbath in Hyde Park, or in Earl's Court, or near the Shepherd's Bush roundabout, migrants dying in their scores, whatever it was that had happened, something seemed to have happened, for there was a pause, and the soldiers and police officers and volunteers, who had advanced into the outer edges of the ghetto pulled back, and there was no more shooting that night.
Saeed for his part wished he could do something for Nadia, could protect her from what would come, even if he understood, at some level, that to love is to enter into the inevitability of one day not being able to protect what is most valuable to you. He thought she deserved better than this, but he could see no way out, for they had decided not to run, not to play roulette with yet another departure. To flee forever is beyond the capacity of most: at some point even a hunted animal will stop, exhausted, and await its fate, if only for a while.How lucky I have been to spend the last few weeks reading and re-reading books that teach me. Books that have forced me to ask myself what it is I think I am doing with my writing life...and what I should be doing. Paul Lisicky's The Narrow Door (unspool time to find the truth). Dana Spiotta's Innocents and Others (the novel as document, the document as story). George Saunders' Lincoln in the Bardo (be unafraid to do the things that will, inevitably, be questioned). Paulette Jiles's News of the World (make history now, make details crackle). Claire Fuller's Swimming Lessons (there are always many sides to one story). Debbie Levy's Soldier Song (picture books, the best of them, are as smart and as well-researched as anything on the adult table). Vivian Gornick's The Odd Woman and the City (memoir is as much about what you've thought as about what you've done). Amor Towles' A Gentleman in Moscow (nothing wrong, nothing at all, with a good, old-fashioned hero set down inside a good, old-fashioned, finely told story).
Did I murder Elmer? the woman said.Goodness, that's fine stuff. It's proof, like the work of Dana Spiotta (whose new Innocents and Others I celebrate here), that you can write way the heck out of expected forms and still land on the most humane story of all. That's not just a lesson for novelists, my friends. That's a lesson for memoirists. That's a lesson for people in general.
You did, said the Brit.
I did, said the woman. Was I born with just those predispositions and desires that would lead me, after my whole preceding life (during which I had killed exactly no one), to do just that thing? I was. Was that my doing? Was that fair? Did I ask to be born licentious, greedy, slightly misanthropic, and to find Elmer so irritating? I did not. But there I was.
And here you are, said the Brit.
Here I am, quite right, she said.
The girl still didn't move. It takes a lot of strength to sit that still for that long. She sat upright on the bale of Army shirts which were wrapped in burlap, marked in stencil for Fort Belknap. Around her were wooden boxes of enamel washbasins and nails and smoked deer tongues packed in fat, a sewing machine in a crate, fifty-pound sacks of sugar. Her round face was flat in the light of the lamp and without shadows, or softness. She seemed carved.I have more to share. I'm on a roll. I'll soon be reading Amor Towles's A Gentleman in Moscow, and after that some Vivian Gornick and after that Tim Winton, and I won't be done. We can't be done. Not with this.
It was when you surrendered to a piece of music or a story. By reclining and closing your eyes, you could respond without tracking your response. You listened. The opposite were the people who started to speak the second someone finished talking or playing or singing. They practically overlapped the person because they were so excited to render their thoughts into speech. They couldn't wait to get their words into it and make it theirs. They couldn't stand the idea of not having a part in it. They spent the whole experience formulating their response, because their response is the only thing they value.Here, later on in the book, are thoughts about being an artist:
It is partly a confidence game. And partly magic. But to make something you also need to be a gleaner. What is a gleaner? Well, it is a nice word for a thief, except you take what no one wants. Not just unusual ideas or things. You look closely at the familiar to discover what everyone else overlooks or ignores or discards.My friend Thomas Devaney was at the reading last Wednesday night. He had Spiotta's novel in his hand, but no words for it. It's just that good. It's just that wise. There's no actual point in talking about it.
What difference does it make to writers of stories if public figures are denying their responsibility for their own actions? So what if they are, in effect, refusing to tell their own stories accurately? So what if the President of the United States is making himself out to be, of all things, a victim? Well, to make an obvious point, they create a climate in which social narratives are designed to be deliberately incoherent and misleading. Such narratives humiliate the act of storytelling. You can argue that only a coherent narrative can manage to explain public events, and you can reconstruct a story if someone says, "I made a mistake," or We did that." You can't reconstruct a story—you can't even know what the story is—if everybody is saying, "Mistakes were made." Who made them? Everybody made them and no one did, and it's history anyway, so let's forget about it. Every story is a history, however, and when there is no comprehensible story, there is no history. The past, under these circumstances, becomes an unreadable mess.Incredible words, right? Written as if they erupted just yesterday, but they did not. Burning Down the House was first published in the 1990s, and Baxter begins this chapter, called "Dysfunctional Narratives," by talking about Richard M. Nixon.
Perhaps from gladness at escaping that harangue and at remembering how everyone is vulnerable to hardship, a tenderness welled up in me toward all the living. I found a stillness within our transitory state, relishing the passing folk intent on business or recreation, and loving the familiar clip-clop of horses, freshly curried and brushed, as they pulled grocery wagons house to house, stopping to deliver milk or ice or bread. The odors of meals escaped through windows, and hunger cut into me.Jill Santopolo's The Light We Lost (on sale in May from G.P. Putnam's Sons) is a book about right now, a story about a woman's undying love for the man who knows and loves her best, but is never quite hers. This is a novel steeped in the melancholy of what might have been, a narrator who writes of her personal history from a suffused and brokenhearted present. This is a story that ponders the porous and saturating nature of love—the lines that can't be crossed, the lines that are, nonetheless, crossed. It is a novel of what if's, and it can't be helpeds. Lucy cannot rewrite the past, and maybe she doesn't want to rewrite or negate the past, even if the past hurts, even if the present cannot free her from her past. Short chapters, look back and ahead at once:
Sometimes we make decisions that seem right at the time, but later, looking back, were clearly a mistake. Some decisions are right even in hindsight. Even though everyone told me not to, and even knowing what happened afterward, I'm still glad I moved in with you that snowy day in January.Why is it that books that break our hearts are books we love to read? Jill's book raises this question again, in all of the best ways.
Many Philadelphia writers have a felt responsibility to incorporate historic city texts into the conversations that swirl today. As part of that process, work is underway to publish the Philadelphia freedom texts that were read on January 15th during the WritersResistPHL gathering (more that gathering here). Interested in researching and sharing and, indeed, applying additional texts? Ask questions.Read more...
Many writers are concerned about purported proposals that would eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Those who would like to participate in drafting a petition or speaking to representatives or framing the importance of the arts to legislators or patrons have an opportunity to get involved.
The Philadelphia-area writers traveling to the AWP conference in Washington, DC, hope to put on a united front—to get to know each other, to advocate with each other, to make a difference together. If you're planning on spending time at the AWP and would like to help organize a united front, check in through the email list.
Philadelphia-area writers and artists and musicians seeking to strengthen the power of their art and the utility of their concerns would benefit from collaboration and conversation with other similar groups across the city and nation. Start or join a conversation about linking your actions/our actions to the work of others via the list.
On April 1, on the Widener campus, an undergraduate-focused Writers Resist program will feature the voices of the young from campuses across our area. If you are a teacher or a parent who knows of undergraduates who would like to read or speak (or if you are an undergraduate!), ask questions.
Every protest march, every protest poster, is ultimately local. Politics happens on a local level, too—through locally elected representatives. Gerrymandering, in the words of the non-partisan organization Fair Districts PA—results in "politicians ... choosing their voters, rather than voters choosing their politicians." One of the most important acts of change will come from those who effectively speak up and out with the tools provided through this organization. There are resources out there. Ask.
If we're going to speak or write or be active, we have to have the facts. Many texts, articles, resources were noted today. If you were one of those sharing links, please share them via the list. If you have additional links to share, please do add those as well.
Many literary journals and bloggers have platforms through which to speak, or platforms from which they might now speak. Among those discussed at today's meeting were Cleaver, which offers a "Life as Activism" segment, the Shockwire Chapbook series developed by The Head & The Hand Press, and mainstream publications. Additionally, there is the Write Our Democracy program, noted above, created by the national WritersResist program—an opportunity for you to write an immigrant's story.
What do writers do? They write. Who can writers help, on a volunteer basis? Those who need some writing done. There are resources out there listing organizations in fields ranging from science and the environment to health care and immigration that could all use a voluntary press corps. If you'd like to help with this, or if you are an organization in need, let your interests be known.
Independent bookstores are sanctuaries, no matter the time of day or the season. But such bookstores have a special role to play today. If you are interested in helping bookstores develop material that might be shared with patrons, get involved.
Many individual writers and artists are hosting speakers, unveiling new exhibits, and launching books at this time—all opportunities to go beyond the typical book launch or lecture or show to bring people together and raise funds for the greater good. If you would like to help manage or create a single listing of such events, please ask questions on the Facebook page. If you would like to help develop a tool kit that might be disseminated at signings and events, please let us know.
Writers will only be effective as a group if the group mirrors our societies as a whole. Today we heard from two women who have embarked on a project designed to help them truly know each other. But what more can be done to ensure that the group that gathered today is sufficiently diverse in all ways? We'd love your ideas.
There was, believe me, more said and proposed and hoped for today. But this, I think, gets us started. I'll conclude this blog posting the way our meeting ended, with words by Calvino, as read to us by Ann de Forest, from Six Memos for the Next Millennium, written in 1985. Excerpting from the excerpt: "Think what it would be to have a work conceived from outside the self, a work that would escape the limited perspective of the individual ego, not only to enter into selves like our own, but to give speech to that which has no language, to the bird perching on the edge of the gutter, to the tree in spring and the tree in fall, to stone, to cement, to plastic......."
... This Is the Story of You—has been awarded the distinction of being a VOYA Perfect Ten 2016. Each year, VOYA Magazine compiles reviews of titles that were awarded a 5Q and a 5P into our annual Perfect Tens list. VOYA's unique rating system is the only one that weighs both literary quality and teen appeal equally, a distinction that is of great interest and use to those charged with ordering and collecting reading materials for teens.This list is relied upon by librarians and educators around the country (and the world) in their selection of titles to add to library and classroom collections. It is an invaluable tool to our readership, and a lofty honor to those authors and publishers whose titles are selected.The full reviews of all of the Perfect Ten honorees are included in ordering databases/systems of some of the largest book wholesalers and library jobbers in the country, for both public and school libraries. The complete listing of this year's Perfect Ten reviews will be available to all on our website (www.voyamagazine.com), including the full reviews and book cover graphics. VOYA will be publicizing this year's list via Facebook and Twitter. We are also publishing these reviews in our sister journal, Teacher Librarian.As reviews editor, I understand how difficult it is for a title to receive a perfect 10 rating from one of our reviewers. In fact, out of more than 1,100 titles reviewed last year, only 33 titles were awarded this honor. That's less than 3% of all titles reviewed. Our reviewers are cautioned to consider and re-consider a number of issues before deciding on a 5Q 5P rating assignment for a book. It is not a designation given lightly—nor is it given by novices. Our reviewers are seasoned library and education professionals who work directly with young adult readers and have a broad base of understanding and appreciation for YA literature.In sum, a VOYA Perfect Ten is a laudable accomplishment that very few titles can claim. Congratulations again, and thank you for allowing VOYA to be part of celebrating your outstanding contribution to YA literature.

Dyeing Muslin
I originally posted this to my old Cave Creek blog, but I'm posting it here again because I'm dyeing muslin today and I can't think of anything else to write about at the moment.
To dye muslin, I use a stainless steel pot into which goes some hot water, lots of instant coffee grounds, a splash of vanilla, a dash of cinnamon (OK, maybe more than a dash) and possibly some sage or nutmeg. I then place a couple of yards of unbleached muslin (OK, maybe a yard and a half but I seldom measure it) and squish it all down with a wooden spoon. I do cook it on low to just below boiling and then set it aside. I don't know if that actually helps to set the color but it sure seems like it and it smells good too.
I set the pot aside and let the whole thing cool down, stirring and poking to be sure all the fabric gets a turn at soaking for a couple of hours. Then comes fun part - removing the muslin and wringing it out in the sink. I do not rinse it - it's going to get lighter anyway when it dries. On warm sunny days I hang it outside to dry in the sun, but in the dead of winter I toss it in the dryer. It will leave a bit of a coffee stain in the dryer but that wipes out easily. The muslin wrinkles and creases during this process, which adds to the primitive look.
I used to construct my dolls first and then stain, but I find dyeing the muslin first is easier and eliminates any missed seams or spots. I still add a finishing touch up when necessary and can adjust the color by applying more stain to the completed doll if it needs a touch up. Now I can't wait to see what becomes of this batch of muslin....
5 comments:
I love this. It smells so good, too. I was just wondering why all of the spices (other than the great smell) or would just the coffee work.ReplyDelete
I would love to see the results. Do you have a photo?ReplyDelete
I know this kinda goes against the grain...but if you like your prim really dark....cooking coco works awesome...and you achieve color a little more quickly than with just coffee....:) just a little added tip in case you'd like to try it. :)ReplyDelete

Did you?
No, but a client made a few 420 jokes in the clinic while she was having their stem cells collected. Even the doc cracked a few.
Then, I went to see the Shins concert and there was smoke all around us. I didn't partake. Had it been handed to me.. I might have.

Today, fishing got off to a slow start. We picked at small to medium mackerel with some large ones in the mix. We had some nice long drifts and some patrons had a couple dozen at the end of the day. Overall, it was a slow day for our first day of mackerel fishing.
Sailing daily for mackerel from 7:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
The Miss Belmar Princess is the largest, fastest and cleanest fishing boat in Belmar. With Miss Belmar's 3 engines and a total of 2,100 horsepower, she is the first boat to the fishing grounds every day and we guarantee it. No other boat comes close. Try us and you'll see why.
