That being said, I decided it was only fitting to create a new beginning in the wake of a new journey. <br />
<br />
You can visit me now at: <a href="http://begintheworld.blogspot.com/">http://begintheworld.blogspot.com/</a> I will continue to post new and inspiring things as I encounter them, whether they are in Jordan, or otherwise!<br />
<br />

I was really using my brain when I began packing for the big move to PA, and decided to pack everything as far in advance as possible, including all my books and electronic gadgets...and my camera battery charger. It's now officially buried beneath an entire library of nursing textbooks. Woops! Being prepared is overrated.<br />
<br />
Anywho, I have been reduced to using my cell phone camera. I'm sure it's more advanced than I give it credit for, but I'm still pining for my automatic focus.<br />
<br />
Snacks. What else is there to say? They get me through the day (and night). Some people prefer a glass of wine or a cup of tea to calm themselves down or unwind. I do it with food. <br />
<br />
<b>My favorite pick-me-upper.</b> Vanilla yogurt. Mixed berries (I buy the frozen ones from Trader Joe's). Raw almonds. <br />

<br />
<b>Alice Waters' Fennel Salad.</b> Easy, quick, refreshing, and simple to play around with if you're looking to be creative...<br />

(Do you ever feel that way, or is it just me?) While I get a grip and stop being such a grump, I thought I'd give you some visual stimulation (not THAT kind of visual stimulation...)<br />

Who knew that 8 tiny squares of chocolate could go such a long way in satisfying your craving? <br /><br />Along with your sampler, you also get an instruction card for "How to Taste Chocolate." Follow these six simple rules to becoming a chocolate connoisseur:<br /><br />1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Look</span> for a consistent color and shiny finish on your chocolate; this signifies well-crafted chocolate.<br /><br />2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Listen </span>for a clean, bright snap when you break your chocolate; this is an indicator of good tempering.<br /><br />3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Smell</span> is a significant determinant to taste; gently rub a piece then inhale deeply and note the aromas.<br /><br />4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Taste</span> by placing the chocolate on your tongue without biting into it; let it soften to release the flavors.<br /><br />5. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Feel </span>the chocolate's texture in your mouth; it should melt evenly and feel smooth and silky.<br /><br />6. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Aftertaste, </span>or the "finish," can sometimes be very different from the initial flavor you tasted; as the chocolate melts on your tongue, notice how it changes.<br /><br />Thanks, Tcho.<br /><br />Maybe your next event could be a chocolate tasting?!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15065138443828152013noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328636154575229168.post-11822221234277540582011-02-04T11:04:00.001-08:002011-02-04T11:07:18.563-08:00Dancers Among Us<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUxN3NHXViI/AAAAAAAACDk/WpEIOhTvQJw/s1600/Michael_McBride_1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUxN3NHXViI/AAAAAAAACDk/WpEIOhTvQJw/s400/Michael_McBride_1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5569912449959155234" border="0" /></a><br />see Jordan Matter's entire series, "Dancers Among Us" <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.jordanmatter.com/photography/dance-photography/dancers-among-us/gallery.php#">here</a>.

I will admit that when the going gets tough, and I'm craving baked goods, I usually go for making cookies or brownies- something that will not require me to utilize my horrendous icing skills. However, after reading Gesine's book, my mouth was salivating thinking about this recipe, along with all the other family recipes she so generously gives away to us common folk. <br /><br />This is her legendary carrot cake. I was home this past weekend at my parents' house in PA. A fresh layer of powder was glistening on the tree limbs outside, and the bitter weather kept me housebound. What else is a girl to do but bake?? <br /><br />My arms were practically falling off after using my mom's ancient hand grater to "finely grate" an entire pound of carrots. (Afterwards, it was officially broken. woops.) However, it was well worth it. The cake only lasted through the weekend between myself, my mom, dad and the last piece polished off with my friend Nicole. EXTREMELY moist, fluffy, light, scrumptious. amazing.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKPcE8EI/AAAAAAAACBA/-t2-9K-jv9g/s1600/IMG_4765.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKPcE8EI/AAAAAAAACBA/-t2-9K-jv9g/s400/IMG_4765.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566546072396165186" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmMeTvEfI/AAAAAAAACB4/NoW0awHz7h8/s1600/IMG_4761.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmMeTvEfI/AAAAAAAACB4/NoW0awHz7h8/s400/IMG_4761.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566561503910236658" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmMIxCwyI/AAAAAAAACBw/fGCyvEPznbU/s1600/IMG_4760.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmMIxCwyI/AAAAAAAACBw/fGCyvEPznbU/s400/IMG_4760.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566561498127581986" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmLwGeYII/AAAAAAAACBo/QGKpzMHGp5Q/s1600/IMG_4759.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBmLwGeYII/AAAAAAAACBo/QGKpzMHGp5Q/s400/IMG_4759.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566561491506585730" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKYGedtI/AAAAAAAACBI/FPIDKymsOX8/s1600/IMG_4769.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKYGedtI/AAAAAAAACBI/FPIDKymsOX8/s400/IMG_4769.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566546074721482450" border="0" /></a>cream cheese icing. the best.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYK-t1N-I/AAAAAAAACBg/DykpGblX7YE/s1600/IMG_4781.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYK-t1N-I/AAAAAAAACBg/DykpGblX7YE/s400/IMG_4781.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566546085087098850" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKzyJFrI/AAAAAAAACBY/MfMHM8ibewQ/s1600/IMG_4775.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aV1juPR-TaE/TUBYKzyJFrI/AAAAAAAACBY/MfMHM8ibewQ/s400/IMG_4775.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566546082152388274" border="0" /></a>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15065138443828152013noreply@blogger.com0
