I kinda wish we hadn't told anyone, not a single soul, until we sent out the invites...
Tim and I absolutely love visiting the PSU Farmers Market. There is always awesome produce and yummy snacks. We spent our Saturday morning strolling through the market, taste testing whenever we could, and looking out for veggies that were on our grocery list for the week.
Place a beautiful coffee table book in your guest room to give friends and family something to flip through after they unpack. This one features gorgeous Irish interiors.
The recipe below instructs you how to hand make the manti from scratch. We purchased fresh manti from the market. You can also purchase dried manti from Amazon. If you have the time, try making it from scratch. If you have a pasta machine, then I would use that rather than rolling by hand as they do in Turkey. But remember they have had a lifetime of experience rolling dough out by hand and they are quick at it. The filling we are using is the traditional lamb mixture but you can also use beef. Vegetarian filling is less common but we provide an option in the cooking notes. The sauce is added cold over the hot manti, whereupon it melts over the whole dish. If you buy already prepared manti then this dish is easy. It is more work if you make from scratch.

History is full of unrecognized women. That's not the most startling observation in the world; scribes throughout history have begrudged women any space in their important records of Kings And Emperors Doing Things, because ladies were just there to…
Tonkatsu may have an exotic name but it will be a familiar concept to most people, it is essentially a breaded pork schnitzel or cutlet from Japan and it is absolutely glorious!

There's not a single person on this planet who doesn't love a good bargain — but at the same time, you have to be able to draw a line between what's worth buying and what's going to end up permanently in your junk drawer. As tempting as it can be to…
A man has a gun. But this is no ordinary man, and this is no ordinary gun. This isn't a setup for a sci-fi thriller. It's the premise for quantum suicide.
This is Merlin. I think his tail was dipped in dark magic
These are precious! Corbyn went to the zoo this weekend with his Nana and Grandad and they said he really liked the baby animals and penguins. I can see why! Baby PenguinBaby Elephant Baby White Tiger Baby Orangatan Baby Pig Baby Bunny And then the baby aardvark, which makes it into the not cute, but terrifying looking category!

The Boxer (1933) Russian painter Konstantin Somov isn’t very well known for the dreamy, homoerotic portraits you see here. He was a successful commercial artist from an artistic family, but his most acclaimed work might better be described as “retro,” or even “camp.” Somov was essentially a Rococo revivalist, forgoing the somewhat harsh realism that was popular in Russia at the time for a whimsical gouache and watercolor style that was nearly 200 years old—think big wigs and giant skirts, a lot of fussy-looking depictions of 18th century aristocracy. In some ways, his commercial work was even gayer than his gay boudoir scenes. In Russia, Somov was an integral part of a thriving and lush arts community centered around a publication he co-founded—World of Art, which also included lavish costume and set design for the Ballets Russes. There were a lot of gay men involved in World of Art, and its predilection with fantasy and luxury were very much out of step with the 19th Century Russian Realism. After the Russian Revolution, Somov likely anticipated his work being denounced as decadent so he immigrated to the U.S. and then Paris. His commercial work is auctioned off for...
The media tell us that we live in a world full of 'perfect' people... exactly how true is this?
Gaslighting is essentially psychological warfare, causing the victims of malignant narcissists to continually question their own reality.
