Quick Chocolate Candy Recipe Prepared Right at Home
Thursday 12 November 2009 @ 3:30 am
It’s a fact that some people are avowed chocoholics. Research show that when we eat sweets or fatty foods, our body releases serotonin, the hormone responsible for managing gastric movements. The brain employs the spare serotonin to manage our appetites, tempers, and moods. This may be the explanation to your extremely sunny disposition or lively energy after eating chocolates and has come to rely on a regular “fix” to sustain moods.
Having an excessive craving for chocolates may not be that bad, researchers say. They say your sunny cheer and hyperactiveness is your body’s reaction to the chemical substances, nutrients, and flavors integral to chocolates. Good thing you don’t need to go far from home to get your “chocofix.” You can prepare them right at home!
Gather these utensils and ingredients: double boiler, mixing bowl, candy molds/baking sheets, rubber spatula, and white/dark chocolates.
All you need do is melt the chocolate in the double boiler, continually stirring it with a rubber spatula. Withdraw from heat and pour the hot chocolate liquid onto the baking sheets/candy molds to dry and shape. One other option is to coat the fruits with the molten chocolate for fruit-filled treats. Tap out any air bubbles from your chocolate candy and place it in the chiller if you’re not going to dish it up straight away.
Just remember that if you didn’t temper your chocolate candy, it’ll be prone to grayish spots and not as shiny as commercially-prepared ones. Tempering your chocolate candy will guarantee the cocoa butter crystals found in chocolates are spread across and won’t rise to the top of your confections. The complexity in tempering lies in the fact that your chocolate must be kept at definite temperatures all throughout the time you’re working.
There’s something that proficient chocolatiers are aware of that you may not know: chocolate tempering machines make tempering as uncomplicated as pushing a couple of buttons. The advantage is, your chocolate candies will have that quality finish; plus, you can even trade your extra chocolates for a tidy income.

Introduction to the Cuban Vanguardia
Tuesday 4 August 2009 @ 9:40 pm

Cuban artistry is an assorted multi-ethnic coalescence of American, African and European aesthetic design mirroring the multi-ethnic population make-up of Cuba. Artists from Cuba embraced the European modernist movement and the 1920-1930 era saw a growth in Cuban vanguardism trends; these movements were characterized by a mixture of modern aesthetic genres. Illustrious Cuban creatives tended to hail from the early 20th century (e.g. Amelia Pelez).

Perhaps the most well-known art (of sorts) to come out of the island of Cuba was THAT shot of Che Guevara (photo by Mr Alberto Korda) which went onto become possibly one of the most recognisable images of the past century.

The native Cuban artist movement amassed momentum after the opening of San Alejandro academy in 1818, which was developed to satisfy the European taste of the Cuban middle class. Towards the end of the 19th century, landscapes were very representative within the Cuban art movement and classicism was still the style of choice.

Even So, the pioneering Cuban contemporary artist of the late 1920s had rejected the academic formulas of Cuba’s national art academy. In their formative years, many Cuban artists had resided in France, where they learned and assimilated the founding rules of modernist primitivism, surrealism, and cubism. They returned to Cuba dedicated to new aesthetic styles and were eager to combine this new artistic leaning with a Cuban influence. The vanguardia artists attained worldwide acknowledgement in 2003 when the Museum of Modern Art presented the the Modern Cuban Painting show.

Scrapbooking - Cropping and Matting
Thursday 3 July 2008 @ 9:59 pm

You’ve looked over several magazines, websites and books about scrapbooking, and you feel like you’re ready to go. However, in all these articles you’ve looked over, you realize there are a few words that you’ve heard your wedding photographer talk about…words that scare you a little bit…and cause you to doubt yourself with the thought, “I’m not a professional photographer…what have I gotten myself into?” These frightening words you will find aren’t so frightening after all, and putting them into use will really spice up your scrapbook.

The first word is Cropping…which, simply put, is cutting off the boring, messy, or distracting parts of photos. For the most part, photos look best, and professional, when they have straight sides and clean edges, like a square or rectangle. Sometimes even a circle or ovals will work well. Another way to crop photos is to cut along the edges of an object or a person, like an outline, and remove the background altogether. If you’re really feeling creative, cut a portion of an object out of a photo, leaving the rest of the photo intact. This will give you a ‘jack-in-the-box’ effect.

It is important to use the proper tools when cropping your pictures so you get crisp, 90 degree angles. This may mean buying something else when you head to the craft store. There are numerous small, inexpensive paper cutters to help you with this job. Try to avoid cutting photos with the fancy-edged scissors from your child’s craft kit. Your best bet is to cut the photo with smooth edges and use the fancy scissors on a colored paper mat around the photo.

Speaking of mats…that brings up the second intimidating word…matting. Matting is basically giving your photo a background with a separate piece of paper. But, you may think, “Why waste the time doing that?” by having a narrow edge of colored paper around the outside edge of your photo, you can ‘bring out’ a certain color in photos. This can enhance the visual impact of the photo. Try using more than one color mat at a time. Don’t slack off with matting, rather, be creative, and you will find a little cropping and a little matting can really go a long way with your scrapbook.

Sexy Body Jewelry
Thursday 29 May 2008 @ 2:27 am

Body jewelry has become an accepted form of self expression. We see it everywhere from the street to the gym to the pool. It is so common now that I barely even take notice when I see someone sporting lip rings or a stud in their tongue. A few years ago this would have been completely shocking to me, but now it is normal and almost passé. However, sexy body jewelry is something that will always be noticed, or perhaps will never be seen by anyone but that special someone.

One of the sexiest places for women to be pierced is the belly button. Of course for the ultimate effect of the sexy body jewelry it’s preferable that the woman have a toned and tanned stomach to go along with the jewels. For men, nipple piercing has become more popular. It’s not uncommon to go to the beach, pool or local gay bar and see more than a few men sporting some sort of jewelry in their nipples. Of course women may have their nipples pierced as well, but it’s not something most of us will encounter in a public place. There are plenty of other sexy places for piercing and body jewelry, but I will leave that discussion to your imagination.
