Lamb Goulash and a Book
A game of cat and mouse, this trying to find the time to skype with a friend, a book agent. Meanwhile, I put words on paper and as the moment approaches to place it on the blog, the fear washes over me and I turn to something else, tucking the words, the bits and pieces of the story away for later. Doubt. Oh, not the doubt of writing the story, but opening up my reasons for telling that story. Which are complex and abundant. Fine line between indignation and telling my truth?
In so many ways I have lived the dream, lived out the fantasy of picking up and moving to France. I've roamed the cobbled, fabled streets of Paris, eaten my fair share of croissants, dined on oysters in Brittany, taken the boat to Porquerolles, stood in the Cathedral in Strasbourg, looked out over the beaches of Omaha and Utah before heading to Barfleur for moules frites. I've sipped Champagne in Parisian brasseries, taken clients into the kitchens of Michelin-starred restaurants and now live in the city of Jules Verne and Jacques Demy. I have even spent close to seven years in Italy and taken a bumpy ride to Nigeria. I married the romantic Frenchman, raised two multi-cultural sons and have lived happily ever after.
Well, almost.
I do not want to perpetuate the myth about France and the French as have so many women who, like I, picked up and moved here. And wrote about it. Too many of those books smack of a sheltered existence, of hobnobbing with the privileged few, of feigning a poor bohemian existence while enjoying the luxury of money, connections and a well-planned life. Too many are the recounting of a fairytale, the story of a young woman playing ragtag American while buying her silk wedding gown and putting down the deposit on a first apartment or sitting in a well-appointed kitchen in the 8th with a selection of well-dressed françaises exuding confidence, perfection and Chanel. Too many are the all-too entertaining fable of a perfect life, humorous Frenchmen, quaint country villages and extravagant, delectable meals.
Rather, mine is the story of a girl who drops everything on a whim, fed up with her going-nowhere, underpaid life in New York city, bundles up her belongings in trash bags and dumps them on the curb outside her Brooklyn apartment, empties her meager savings account, packs two battered suitcases and flies off to Paris not so much for an adventure as on the search for a new life. Shy, a tad angry, fed up and running away from herself, she heads to France because, well, she studied French in high school, didn't she?
The tale I have to offer is one of a girl hunkering down in an unfamiliar country out of stubbornness and safety, learning the rules while stumbling through the ins and outs of a new language and strict social guidelines, all a great mystery, fumbling and mumbling and tripping over her own feet (when said feet are not firmly inserted in mouth) more often than not. It is the story of an odd upbringing, an idyllic childhood shrouded in darkness and pain, joy and curiosity; a chronicle of times lived unexpectedly, illness and death, love and marriage, parenthood and an accidental, unpredictable education in life.
I have indeed lived an adventure albeit one that caught me by surprise, an extraordinary tale for my readers. Many hold up my marriage as an object of desire, a model of the ever-elusive "perfect marriage", yet perfection can be an illusion. We met accidentally, married hastily dressed in flea market finds and sharing a home-cooked meal with a handful of friends. We faced the world together with nothing more than an eclectic education, curiosity, one double mattress and love.
Romance and adventure in which real life sometimes gets in the way.
And as I toss a flurry of words on the page and wonder what to share with you here and how, I cook. Although the middle of May, it is still very much winter in Nantes. Chilly days punctuated by rain, we turn to the warmth and comfort of soups and stews, thick, rich and hearty. I recently pulled an old favorite of mine out of the archives, dusted it off and served it up hot and flavorful. Spoon yourself a bowlful, pull up a chair and savor, accompanied by a good book.
Olive oil
3 – 4 medium onions, cut in half and thinly sliced
1 Tbs sugar
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 Tbs sweet Hungarian paprika
1 tsp smoky paprika
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1 bay leaf
3 Tbs or 2 small cans tomato paste
2 Tbs balsamic vinegar
4 cups (1 liter) chicken stock
2 lbs (1 kg) boneless lamb shoulder
1 tsp salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 or 3 carrots, trimmed, peeled and sliced into thick coins
Fresh parsley, coarsely chopped
6 ½ - 7 oz (200 – 300 g) white mushrooms, trimmed, cleaned and quartered or chunked
1 - 2 Tbs 15 – 30 g) margarine or butter
7 oz (200 ml) heavy cream, sour cream or Greek yogurt (sour cream or Greek yogurt will add a wonderful tang)
In a large pan or Dutch oven with a lid, heat a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. Add the onions and the sugar and, stirring, sauté over low or medium-low heat until the onions are caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Once the onions are caramelized a deep golden brown, add the minced garlic and cook, stirring, for another minute.
Stir in the sweet and smoky paprikas, the thyme leaves and the bay leaf. Sauté an additional minute, stirring constantly.
Add the tomato paste and stir until everything is well blended. Add the balsamic vinegar and deglaze, scraping up the brown bits of onion and tomato stuck to the bottom of the pot. Add the chunks of lamb and the sliced carrots and toss to coat. Salt and pepper. Toss in a handful of freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley.
Add the chicken stock to just cover. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour 15 minutes.
Before this cooking time is up, sauté the chunks of mushroom in butter or margarine in a small saucepan until tender and golden on the edges. Add to the goulash at the end of the 1 hour 15 minutes then allow the goulash to continue to simmer for an additional 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Once the goulash is off the heat, stir in the cream or yogurt and serve immediately over fresh pasta, preferably pappardelle or other wide, flat ribbon-type pasta.
I have also prepared this lamb goulash with herbed biscuits baked atop the finished goulash.

I understand the running away at the time but you do seem happy and contented in the life you've built for yourself.
Your lamb looks wonderful! - May 24, 2013 at 2:59 AM

Your story is the best as it is honest and true - not glossy and out of reality. In real life nothing's perfect or dreamlike...
This goulash is just wonderful! I'm drooling now.

I can SO relate, Jamie. I packed up my life into a suitcase, headed to Paris with no job, not knowing anyone and just a tenuous connection with the Sorbonne to pursue my PhD. Nearly six years later, I did the same to move to Toronto (at least that time I had a job and a house!). But as I know you know, life is what you make of it. You seem to be doing a fab job at building the life you want for yourself. I know it's not easy nor "dreamlike" but you deserve all the success and happiness in the world! xo

Jamie I recognized myself in your story and in a way I had very similar experiences just that I didn't move to France and I am not American. Well you know my story. Getting married hastily and wearing flee market clothes, lol I have to confess that sounds too familiar. The beginnings are never easy but you learn to get around and you learn what you are suppose to say and what not.
I love goulash, it's in my blood! Yet, I have never ever tried lamb goulash, but maybe I should now. ;) - May 24, 2013 at 4:11 AM

Romance and adventure in real life are so different from dreams. Anyway you are able to give them sense and poetry in your post.
I want to know all the story! Really! Moment by moment, post by post. - May 24, 2013 at 4:16 AM

Novodies like is sunshine and rainbows, although some do seem to come close to it. Your life, to me does conjure up a fairy tale we all aspire to in some form. France, your prince and happily ever after, barring those annoying forks in the road called life. Although I don't eat lamb, I can't even begin to imagine how good this goulash tastes. The photos are scrumptious! I'll make it with beef and calll it a day :)

I would love to run away to a new life, but content myself with running away for a month every year..if I can. I loved this true and honest portrayal.

- Sally - My Custard Pie said...
I'm so glad you portray your life 'un-rose-tinted'. I do wonder at the army of readers who gush about the other kind - are they living their lives vicariously, scared to make the leap themselves? That ragu is my kind of meal :)
- May 25, 2013 at 3:11 AM
- A Canadian Foodie said...
You truly are living the dream because you take risks, know when you have a good thing and face reality head on. Few have reached that far into adulthood. And you cook and tell! ;0
Completely related to the read, Jamie, more from y husband's view as he packed up his bags, left his family and emigrated here with nothing but his own perseverance and passion. And, oh, what a life he has built. I am so proud of him, so lucky to have met him - and life is never easy, but it is always beautiful... even in the dark, if you know who you really are.

Sometimes the lessons we are to learn in life don't become clear until long after we make our choices - or life throws a few curve balls at us. The road less traveled is always the more interesting, the most challenging and often the most rewarding - at least that is what I've found. Not to say I wouldn't have preferred different options at times, because I would. But things occasionally have a way of working themselves out - thankfully. I'm currently in very chilly Canada - where a hearty lamb dish and a good book would be perfect!

I strongly identify with the feelings you're experiencing about sharing YOUR story, in all its glamor and simplicity and honesty and grief and joy...all of it. I was asked to publish my story a year or so ago and after much consideration I had to say no, not yet, I'm not ready. And that was right for me. I'm so glad you are ready to share yours and I look forward to reading whatever you decide to share. :-) xo

Your writing is terrific...I'd read you on the back of a cereal box. We all have moments of self doubt, but you will rise above it all...and the right words and stories will come.

Please Jamie, write the book! I am so sick of reading about the perfect lives of us expats. And about perfect marriages, because they aren't and two people in a relationship make it work, day in and day out. I know for a fact that Life in Italy is NOT "Under the Tuscan Sun" and I a hate the clichés. Mind you, the good ones AND the bad ones. Not all Italian men are great lovers and not all of them are mama boys either... Life in a foreign country is just like it is in any other country, with some good and some bad and where people are not just funny caricatures but have real lives and problems. With the addition that you don't know the rules when you first arrive. It would be refreshing to hear the true story, your story. About life and marriage.

I could always get so engrossed into your writings, Jamie. I can so relate to your running away story. Kudos to you to be able to make a good life for yourself. Hugs!

America can handle the truth. Even if that truth could include a coverup at the powerful IRS.
The IRS mission statement pledges to "enforce the law with integrity and fairness to all."
But public scrutiny has revealed details indicating a level of politicization totally at odds with that.
Look at the two eye-opening developments that have happened at the IRS since May: An acting IRS commissioner resigned, and another powerful IRS official refused to answer questions before Congress, pleading the Fifth Amendment.
Whatever is going on, there is only one way to proceed, and that is a professional and thorough investigation.
For people who haven't been following a lot of this, let me quickly get you up to speed:
The IRS inspector general released a report on May 14 describing how the agency had inappropriately targeted tea party and conservative groups that had applied for tax-exempt status.
Then the IRS put these groups through extra reviews, substantial delays and burdensome requests for information.
The reaction was immediate. The next day, President Barack Obama announced that the acting IRS commissioner was resigning.
That doesn't exactly happen every day.
Obama went on to say, "I will not tolerate this kind of behavior in any agency, but especially in the IRS, given the power that it has and the reach that it has into all of our lives."
After that shocking disclosure, several things happened:
• Senate and House committees launched investigations into the scandal.
• The FBI began a criminal investigation.
• The IRS inspector general expanded its ongoing investigation.
• IRS official Lois Lerner exercised her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination by refusing to answer questions before Congress.
Some interesting developments emerged from all that.
For one, the original claim during IRS testimony -- that the scandal was the result of a couple of "rogue IRS agents" in the agency's Cincinnati field office -- didn't hold water.
It turned out that, according to frontline IRS agents in Cincinnati interviewed by House Oversight committee investigators, the Washington IRS office had played a key role in the handling of the tea party applications.
Retired IRS lawyer Carter Hull disclosed in testimony that IRS Counsel William Wilkins was one of his supervisors in the targeting of conservative groups. (The IRS has denied Wilkins' involvement in the targeting of specific groups.)
The inspector general's report found that Wilkins' office had sent the exempt organizations determination unit on April 24, 2012, "additional comments on the draft guidance" for considering applications of tea party groups for tax-exempt status (PDF).
The connections between Wilkins' office and the inappropriate profiling of conservative groups are especially noteworthy because there are only two appointees of the president at the IRS: the commissioner and the chief counsel.
Cynics may view this controversy as typical when the House is in the hands of a different party than the president, but guess what?
The Democrat-controlled Senate's Finance Committee has also weighed in.
That committee has called for three things: a hearing, an investigation and a request to the IRS for documents.

Report: Rare drops 12 artists and engineers
Rare has reportedly laid off around 12 artists and engineers, following confirmation this week that the studio was to be restructured.
The company is also reducing the number of project leads, according to this GI report, asking employees to reapply for positions elsewhere within the company.
Rare studio manager Mark Betteridge said on Tuesday that structural alterations were necessary at the studio to "speed development and better manage the scale required to create high quality games".

Sony's CES stats: LBP sells 1.3 million, 17 million PSN users served
Looks like the LittleBig world isn't ending after all. During Sony's CES conference, Kaz Hirai let the news that LittleBigPlanet has sold 1.3 million copies worldwide slip through his satisfied grin. Diehard creators, however, only make up a small portion of Sony's sack squad, with a total of 300,000 levels created.
In addition, Hirai also revealed that 17 million users now board the Internet through PSN's gates – 2.1 million of whom joined in December alone.
Unsurprisingly, PSN users work their wallets on a regular basis, growing the PlayStation Store's download total to 330 million.
So, any chance that a downloadable LittleBigPlanet is on the way?
Thanks, Kotaku.

Dissidia: Final Fantasy will be available via both UMD and PS Store download
Rabid Final Fantasy fans take note; if you want some day-one hands-on time with Dissidia: Final Fantasy, come December 18, a Japanese PSN account will grant your wish.
According to a Japanese TGS listing (kindly translated by Siliconera), the Final Fantasy-themed, fan service-tacular fighter will be joining titles like Loco Roco 2 and Patapon 2 in the Japanese PlayStation Store on day one.
While pricing hasn't been finalized, the two aforementioned Sony-published titles' digital price tags sport slightly smaller numbers than their retail counterparts, so speculation says downloading Dissidia could also save your wallet some grief.
At this point, details of the game's Western release haven't been nailed down, so we can't say whether or not the game's localized release will be straddling the Internet en route to your PSP.

SCEE issues statement on slow-loading Store
A SCEE spokesperson released a statement on the European PlayStation forums yesterday about slow loading times for icons on the newly revamped PS Store:
As you will have noticed, the PS Store re-launched successfully today, and we'd like to thank you for your positive feedback.
We are aware that many of you have experienced delays whilst the PS Store's thumbnail icons are being downloaded. This is a temporary consequence of a new system implementation and high global traffic levels, and will be resolved within the next few days.
Thank you for your patience and continued support!
Hopefully things will settle down after you all stop, you know, using your PS3s. Oh.

Asked what kind of person his sister had been, he said, "She liked to dance a lot, crack jokes and be with the family."
Though she is now an adult, he said, he plans to keep a closer eye on Georgina than before. "I'm gonna sit there and make sure that she gets there and back home, be more protective."
A sister, Mayra DeJesus, said Gina spent Tuesday with her family -- with the focus on her, but not so much what she'd gone through. She described Gina as in "good spirits."
The long missing woman's aunt, Sandra Ruiz, told reporters that her recovery shows that anything is possible.
"If you don't believe in miracles," Ruiz said, "I suggest you think again, because it does happen."
Michelle Knight
Age: 21 when she was reported missing; now 32, according to the Cleveland Police Department.
Missing since: August 22, 2002, said Martin Flask, director of public safety for the police; a missing person report was filed the next day.
Clues: Knight's grandmother, Deborah Knight, told The Plain Dealer on Monday that the family had concluded that Michelle had left of her own accord because she was angry that she had lost custody of her son. That conclusion was supported by police and social workers, she told the newspaper.
But the missing woman's mother, Barbara Knight, told the newspaper that her daughter would never have broken all contact voluntarily.
Barbara Knight moved to Naples, Florida, about a year and a half ago, her neighbor Sheldon Gofberg told CNN.
But even after her move, Barbara Knight told The Plain Dealer that she often returned to Cleveland's West Side to search for her daughter, putting up posters seeking information about her.
She said she thinks she saw her daughter and an older man walking together at a shopping plaza several years ago, but the woman did not respond when she called Michelle's name.
Law enforcement action: The FBI website makes no mention of her.

Remember When
Remember When, in Lassen County
120 years ago
Tom Dennin said some unprincipled sportsman put giant powder in the creek near his Mountain Meadow ranch last winter and made sad havoc among the trout. Dennin said his creek used to be the best trout stream in the country, but with such acts of vandalism, it could be worthless as a fishing ground.
120 years ago
A great deal of trouble and vexation caused to the traveling public by the bottomless condition of the piece of road in front of Sugru's place might be overcome by the judicious use of sagebrush which abounds on each side of the road.
A plentiful layer of sagebrush lain crosswise of the crack is an excellent means of temporary relief from an embargo of mud.

Layering is in this season, and there�s no better place to start than with a basic short sleeve top.

GoJane carries short sleeve crop tops in all styles and colors, and we want you to know that there are ways to wear them even when it�s chilly outside. Start your outfit with a sultry faux leather crop top like the Under the Leather Crop Top, then add your trusted denim jacket, patterned harem pants and short suede booties for a sweet look with just the right amount of edge. For a more comfortable daytime look, the Cold Shoulder Crop Tee pairs perfectly with high-waisted skinny jeans, flats and a warm flannel. Whatever your style or your budget, GoJane�s short sleeve crop tops are just enough coverage for every thrifty fashionista.

This last week was a very LOOOOONG week indeed! But, it also held many rewards… amongst them my birthday, my graduation from a college program and my little one's birthday party!
During the middle of this week, in-between me going to work from @ 5:30AM and then to my clinical shifts @ Virginia Mason Hospital at 2PM till 11PM… I found some artistic inspiration.
This first one is a found art piece. It was posted to the corkboard in the staffroom behind the microwave and nobody seemed to know who's it was? I enjoyed it being there and thought I'd share it with you.
This next shot was one I took on my last day of working and going to clinicals. By this time I was TOTALLY ready for my relaxing birthday the next day, but at the moment of this image my head was resting on the back of the lobby chair as I admired the pattern of the art-deco lights above.

Santa on the Christmas Walk |
The chamber board had discussed changing the Christmas Walk to the first weekend in December, but after further review and feedback from merchants, they decided to return the event to its original date, the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
Stores stay open later for the annual evening event and often have sales and refreshments. Santa Claus makes his first seasonal visit to the island, roving carollers sing their songs, and luminaria line the streets.
The chamber is also looking for volunteers for the Fall Festival. Everyone from arts and crafts vendors to beer servers to clean-up crews are needed on that day. Anyone interested in volunteering or setting up a booth at the festival can call the chamber office.
The board has also approved a new event, which will be held during the World's Richest Tarpon Tournament and Ladies Day Tarpon Tournament. The Silver King Festival will be held the weekend after the World's Richest Tarpon Tournament, which is May 17 and 18, and prior to the Ladies Day Tarpon Tournament, which will be held on Sunday, May 20.
Chamber Director Lew Hastings said more details would be forthcoming in the future.
The board also discussed more segments in the "Business to Business program. On Thursday, Oct. 13 Tom and Toni Nelson, of Nelson Photographers, came to the Boca Grande Community Center Woman's Club Room to discuss how weddings held on the island affect local businesses.
On Thursday, Nov. 10 at 5:30 p.m. Sally Shepard from Charlotte County Habitat for Humanity will speak when "Business to Business" is to be held in the offices of Michael Saunders & Company, 420 E. Railroad Ave. On Thursday, Dec. 8 at 5:30 p.m. Judy Luccini from the Wildlife Center of Venice will lead a discussion in the Woman's Club Room at the Community Center.
Anyone interested in getting more information about volunteering at the Fall Festival or other events, or in being a vendor, can call the chamber office at 964-0568.

7. NCR-DIC and TECHNOLOGY
NCR-DIC designed the National Documentation and Information System, which is a repository for Sudanese documents based on the following technologies.
NCR-DIC set up Microfiche in 1990 with funding from the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) of Canada. The aim was to facilitate the acquisition of documents related to Sudan, which cannot be easily obtained in hard copy. These include government document, theses, existing special library Collections of older documents now out of print, and the documents from Libraries outside Khartoum such as Gezira. Its system fits into the computerized cataloguing system very easily through the microfiche accessioning system. Each document on the fiche is given an accession number and this is added to the Catalogue record on the computer when the document is catalogued. If an online search identifies references on the fiche can be retrieved from the Storage cabinet by using the accession number, as the fiches are stored in accession number sequence
7.2.a CDS/ISIS-BASED LIBRARY SYSTEM
Micro CDS/ISIS is advanced non-numerical information storage and retrieval software developed by UNESCO since 1985. CDS/ISIS is an integrated and Multilanguage package offering all the basic features demanded for a database management system including: database definition; data entry; indexing; retrieval; printing, some utilities; database management and data exchange
CDS/ISIS has become the software of choice for the developing world, but it also enjoys extensive use in Canada, Australia, and Western European countries. Cuba, Vietnam, and China have also used and developed the software for their national libraries and archives. Some of Library institutions of UNSECO members have succeeded in encountering CDS/ISIS databases on the Web.
This paper describes the development of a microcomputer-based system using the Micro CDS/ISIS (English and Arabic versions). It comprises the application interfaces for creating a machine-readable catalogue and for information retrieval. The CDS/ISIS software is distributed free to libraries and information centers all over the world by UNESCO in Sudan, Documentation and Information Centre formerly National Documentation Centre) coordinates the distribution of the software and provides training on it. CDS/ISIS has wide application as an indexing tool but its flexibility has extended its use to library automation applications like cataloguing and information retrieval. This is because CDS/ISIS comes with a built-in subset of the Pascal language that allows local customization and development of user applications and interfaces. Many such customized applications have been reported in the literature (Ghobrial, 1992). Some good interfaces have also been developed to complement the information retrieval capability in CDS/ISIS.
NCR-DIC system developed allows libraries to create machine-readable catalogue based on the standard Common Communication Format (CCF). It is complemented with the information retrieval interface, which has full search and retrieval functions, including keyword searching. The electronic catalogue created form the resource database that can be used to teach and give hands-on experience on on-line information retrieval.
Conversion of record formats of other databases, which are either on CD-ROM or floppy disks to NCR-DIC databases, which is accomplished through conversion programs. Such type of conversion is very limited as compared to keying from keyboard including data elements not available in the imported databases. Generally conversion of original records can be made to suit NCR-DIC database format, which is ISO 2709.
Where as in commercial non-bibliographic databases, such as Access, FoxPro, and DBASE, the fields are defined to some fixed-length, with no sub-fields or repeatable fields. Which is why they are so unsuitable to bibliographic work where there may be many authors, sub-fields, and fields who length cannot be determined before hand. CDS/ISIS is designed for bibliographic record keeping with great flexibility in database design. The only thing that I found missing were templates to pick fields from that match major international standards, such as, US MARC and ISO-2709. Currently, you need to know before hand what Tag numbers to assign and how to name the corresponding field for the desired standard. You can, however, reformat your data in an import or export operation to match a desired standard.
The development of the Windows version was the result of a strategic development policy decision aiming at maintaining the leading role CDS/ISIS has played and is still playing on the international scene, which resulted:
· In the complete rewriting of the software in C++, in order to provide a common standardized language for all the versions (MS-DOS, WINDOWS, and UNIX), thus reducing maintenance costs;
· In the adoption of a multi-platform software development system in order to increase the level of portability to different hardware and operating systems (covering therefore a whole range of computers from stand alone PC's to powerful mini-computers);
· In the implementation of a client-server architecture using market-standard interfaces.
7.2.d Compatibility between the DOS and Windows versions
is needed when moving
from CDS/ISIS DOS to CDS/ISIS for Windows. However, formatting language
functions are just 95% compatible. In some cases you may find some
syntax errors
appearing: you may have to adapt your display format to the new one. In terms
of search engine, the two versions are totally compatible: both can use the
same I/F (inverted file). The data entry worksheet is also compatible but the
screens will appear different.
CDS/ISIS for Windows (WinIsis) is 100% compatible with all Windows Operating Systems
7.2.e CDS/ISIS Application Development Tools
The Windows version of CDS/ISIS can also be used as a platform for developing simple applications using its powerful formatting language. New commands for handling nice presentations are now available as well as hypertext capabilities
7.2.f. Internet tools
A number of tools for making CDS/ISIS databases on the Internet are available. Some of the tools are distributed free-of-charge and available for downloading e.g.
· JavaISIS 3.0 Client/Server suite for CDS/ISIS databases (UNESCO) databases on the Internet. It provides its clients with advanced remote database management functions such as: browse, query, data entry, export and print.
· The WWWISIS server, versions 3 and 4
· ISIAM, publication on NT servers - free (built with ISIS_DLL)
