The food I miss when I am away from home →
marshallsarah:
There are times when I miss things about home, and food is certainly one of those things. I have always loved to cook and bake, and I think that activity is what I miss even more than the food itself. I don’t have access to a kitchen since I currently live in a dorm, so that puts a damper on those…
Foreign Aid Mission to Eataly →
djkahdlkjaljkbcjlhf:
Eataly was once a glorious thriving nation that now consists of barren wasteland and ghost towns …
Now, Eataly is an every-man-for-himself cannibalistic hellhole in which one is lucky to survive. Out of control, it has been completely cut off from foreign aid and government intervention in the hope that it will one day die out.
I joined the UNISEF (United Nations...

If I had to pick one item of food that I would travel a far distance to get, it would have to be Poutine or Fresas Con Crema. I would have to travel to Quebec for Poutine and Mexico for Fresas con Crema. Poutine is a very popular fast food in Quebec and it actually means…

What Foods do you miss most when away from home?
Homemade food tends to be what most college students crave when away at school. Our diets typically consist of the cheapest pizza we can find, cafeteria food because our meal plan covers it, or anything microwaveable. We often find…
The OlYUMpics →
wordsforfree:
The Eatalian Olympics are less a competition and more a celebration of the pleasures of life. The kitchen is the one and only court, no special fields or chosen areas of land. Just one city, Liberi Tutti (free all) one that has held the Olyumpics for hundreds of years, is used for the…

On an island just off the coast of Fiji, a pirate ship arrives in search of plunder and booty.
Leaving the rest of the crew to guard the ship, Captain Progresso and the ship’s Chef Boyardee approach the coast on their rowing boat.
Capt Progresso: We’ve made it, Boyardee. After 13…

Art is Primal. It’s something we can’t avoid producing. It’s the human condition expressed in a multitude of forms… . How should one analyze priceless pieces and paintings? First off, images surpass language boundaries. Sure, they might hit cultural boundaries, but human gesture and unheard emotional language is universal. Art can be valued as something that speaks to...
Money And the Empire State of Mind →
alling28:
No matter how many times you have been told, you are inevitably going to judge a book by it’s cover, or, in the case of New York City, a person by their clothes.
In the first chapter of WAYS OF SEEING, by John Berger, he states “It is seeing which establishes our place in the surrounding world”…

As stated in the first chapter, “The way we see things is affected by what we know or what we believe.” This rings true to my eye as more knowledge is acquired and new perspectives are attained.

Ways of seeing...money →
lesleybravo:
The world has changed drastically and quickly. We don’t sleep on the dusty hard floors and hunt for our survival like our ancestors did. Most of us have to work the money we receive. Everything seems to be getting more and more expensive as the days pass also. Berger’s “Ways of seeing” ties in very nicely to the subject of money because there are so many ways to view money. Some...

On work, money and looking good →
But back to the shoes, “why do people want to look good at work?” is the question I ask myself as I’m seeing countless blurs of fine leather slingbacks in mostly dark colors. I mean, of course I know why people want to look good, it creates approachability, but there seems to be a vicious cycle here. In order to make money, it helps to dress well, clean and proper. However, in order to obtain...

"SALE" conversations →
Standing in front of a shoe store allows me to observe and listen to numerous situations. Some people walk out of the store saying that what they want is still too expensive; they need to save up some more money; the shoes are not worth the money. These examples demonstrate how much money controls one’s lifestyle. The second place is a furniture and deco store and similar situations happen in...

The culture of street giving. →
On 5th avenue is a young man and his guitar. Together, they sit on the sidewalk and sing to the people. He leaves his guitar case lying open on the pavement, asking for a small donation in return for a song; a good musician but he doesn’t look his best. I stand on the street corner and…
The motive behind each donation isn’t clear. To a billionaire, a dollar could be as expendable as a...

Taxi = Moving Dollars →
New york’s main transportation include taxis, subways, cars, and buses. Taxis are one of the pricer forms of transportation but they get you to your destination safely and usually on time. When I was standing on fourteenth street watching how money was being exchanged there were so many people hailing cabs on every street corner trying to get to their different locations quickly.
