THOUGHTS FROM YOUR HOST
Don't you know that Russia is getting sick and fucking tired of having dozens of now independent countries referred to as: "Belarus - former part of the USSR."
Why don't we do that with England? Think of it, "The United States - once part of the British Empire", etc.
Yeah, I think about shit like that all the time.

We have some of these critters in our neighborhood. When we have leftovers we toss them out in the flower bed beside the back door to help them out.
Well, the other night my wife made a Beef Bourguignon that was so bad we threw it out and the possum still hasn't eaten it.
That's what passes as funny in our lives now.

If you had paid attention, you would know that if I'm not the laziest man on the planet, then I'm very close to the laziest. Well, in my quest to grow my beard to wizard-length I have encountered a non-laziness ramification. I now have to lift my beard in order to button my shirt, otherwise, everything gets tangled and I push some of the hair through the buttonhole, etc. Seriously, how long do you think I can tolerate this added burden?
Now I understand why wizards wore robes.
But, alas, I think I have found a solution...

This from the internet:
"My grandfather passed this down to me when I moved into my first apartment. An antique to remind me of the times my family came from Ireland to the US. They were still able to overcome prejudice and make a new life in a new country."

Recent email:
"Hey, Ralph! I worked with you and your partner for a week restoring murals, back in May 2011 just after graduating. Been following folio.olio ever since. My wife and I are headed down to Edisto Island this weekend and will be coming through Columbia Friday and I would like to grab a beer with you if the chance arises. Thoughts?"
He came, we met and I still had to buy my own beer. Seriously, they were delightful.

Ancient Recipe for Mostaccioli di Mamma
One of the earliest recorded cookies and they've become a traditional Christmas cookie in modern times. Originally sweetened with mosto cotto (cooked grape must), modern versions use sugar or honey.
5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 oz unsweetened cocoa powder 2/3 cup (I prefer to use Rodelle)
1 pound coarsely ground almond 3 1/2 cups
6 eggs room temperature
1 pound honey 1 1/3 cups, slight warmed
1 cup granulated sugar
zest of 2 oranges
juice of 1 orange
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Good quality chocolate for glazing. I prefer a bittersweet chocolate, at least 70%

Handmade Decorative Bricks
But look at the lousy job of covering the brownish shape. The edges aren't covered at all. You would think they would be very careful to do it right if each one takes so much time.

11 connected crabs who made synchronous movements during an escape from a kitchen in China.
According to the tracks in the mud, it looks to me like it was done more than once. Maybe they moved them back to the beginning after running to get their camera.
