Molly and Kate speak with cookbook author Polina Chesnakova about her newest and most personal work yet, Chesnok. Polina talks about falling in love with her family's food which led her to writing, teaching and, eventually, a cookbook deal. While her first two books were less personal, this one is layered with family history, traditional recipes and tales from the diaspora and Polina unpacks the process behind its creation. She shares behind the scenes tidbits like the title selection, cover design and the sometimes maddening process behind nailing down the details of the recipes. She shares some of the apprehension she had while writing, where she spent time researching and why this was actually the easiest cookbook project she's ever worked on.Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella Mentions Special Holiday Offer for Everything Cookbook listeners from The Local Palate Cookbook Club: Enjoy 15% off any membership, which includes curated newsletters, marketplace discounts, event invitations, and chances to win cookbooks and kitchen swag.

Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms and rediscover the joy of the season—not just for your family, but for you too. Just fifteen minutes a day. You've got this.

Send us a textIn this episode of the SheClicks Women in Photography Podcast, host Angela Nicholson is joined by British street photographer Dawn Eagleton, who has built a strong reputation for her honest and captivating street portraits. Dawn's approach is rooted in connection, authenticity and quiet confidence, making her images not only visually compelling but emotionally resonant.Dawn shares how she first discovered her passion for photographing people candidly in public spaces and how her instincts led her towards a style defined by raw, unposed portraits. Throughout the conversation, she talks about how she overcame the fear of photographing strangers, the subtle cues she uses to read body language and why respectful interaction is often more powerful than asking for permission.As Angela and Dawn explore the challenges and rewards of street portraiture, they also discuss the importance of eye contact, how to capture people in their natural state and how Dawn built up the courage to approach subjects in a calm and open way. Her thoughts on authenticity, presence and emotional awareness offer helpful insights for any photographer looking to work more confidently in public.Later in the episode, Dawn shares the story behind her first self-published book Through the Glass, a collection of portraits taken through windows that reflect both physical distance and emotional proximity.This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about street photography, looking to build confidence behind the lens, or interested in photographing people in a more honest and respectful way.Connect with DawnWebsiteInstagramFacebookTakeawaysConfidence grows with practice – street photography becomes easier the more you face the initial discomfort and keep shooting.Authenticity matters – unposed, candid moments can tell more powerful stories than staged portraits.Connection is key – a small gesture like a smile or nod can create mutual understanding and respect.Learn to read body language – understanding how people react helps you decide when to photograph or walk away.Your presence affects the picture – how you carry yourself influences how your subject responds, even if they don't notice you at first.Photography is more than the image – it's also about the moment, the experience and the personal growth that comes with it.FujifilmThis podcast is supported by Fujifilm, one of the best-known photography brands in the world.

Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa…they all have stories to be told; stories to be brought forward, cultivated and curated. Research shows that one of the best things we can do to teach our kids resilience is to help them understand where they come from. Who was grandpa? What did he go through? What were his successes? What challenges did he face? What is your lineage? What mattered to those that went before you? Join host Steve Cutler as he talks with Jaxon Cummings, founder of Life Legacy Studios and host of The Life Legacy Podcast. After losing his father before he could capture his full life story Jaxon felt compelled to create a company that helps families curate and capture family stories to preserve for future generations. As a modern day storyteller Jaxon's documentary work has been featured in People Magazine, Newsweek, and Inside Edition.

Montgomery, commanding ground forces for D-Day, gave a "scintillating" and persuasive briefing on his revised Overlord plan. He set objectives in Normandy, like capturing Caen, that were perhaps beyond the means of his exhausted British troops, worsening his relationship with American generals. Montgomery's Operation Market Garden failed to achieve its objectives; the absence of his trusted chief of staff, Freddy Duingan, removed a critical checks and balances system. Rommel showed moral courage by standing up to Hitler in June 1944, arguing the war was over and negotiations were necessary. Patton's swift repositioning of his Third Army to relieve Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge was his finest hour, surprising both allies and Germans.

How does a mechanical watch put out good vibes to the universe with every passing second? Listen in to the latest episode to find out! Our guest is the charming CEO of Sherpa Watches, Martin Klocke. I met Martin recently at Geneve Watch Days and the brand made quite an impression. Capturing authentic vintage vibes with superbly well executed dials in a true "Super-Compressor" case, the Sherpa line strikes quite a chord with a unique identity as a micro-brand out of Germany. Listen in as we hear the full story of the inspiration behind this storied historical watch, first unveiled by Enicar in 1956 following a Swiss Expedition to Mt Everest. Enicar's SeaPearl watches proved to be incredibly reliable and suitable for extreme environments both deep underwater and as high as mankind would dare to explore, leading to the Sherpa rebranding. Martin shares with us his personal story of discovery of the famed Sherpa watches and his fascination with the 70 year old watches. Today's faithful recreations provided many challenges to produce. It is wonderful to hear Martin talk about the production of the modern pieces and the technical brilliance of the original concept combined with further refinements. Only producing approximately 100 watches per year, today's Sherpa is a rare example of a passion project that celebrates technical brilliance, distinctive visual appeal and the rare achievement of faithfully respecting an original design with proportions that prove to be timeless. Combine all this with the world's first "Mantramatic" watch and there is far more than meets the eye with this incredibly compelling and fascinating wristwatch for the ages.

Overview Book talk and signing with Capt. Bryan Leese on At Sea Against the Soviet Fleet—the evolution of U.S. naval intelligence in the Cold War. ***This lecture is sponsored by the IWP IAFIE Alpha Student Chapter*** About the Lecture: At Sea Against the Soviet Fleet examines the critical transformation of naval intelligence during a pivotal era marked by the Cold War and the Vietnam conflict. Bryan Leese meticulously details how U.S. Navy operational intelligence evolved to meet the complexities of modern naval warfare, particularly in response to the increasing threats posed by the Soviet Navy. Structured into four main parts, this book begins by examining the Vietnam War and the institutionalization of shipboard operational intelligence, or what Navy intelligence calls Opintel. The book highlights the establishment of Integrated Operational Intelligence Centers as part of the RA-5C Vigilante program and the innovative strategies that emerged in air combat and targeting. Leese goes on to underscore the necessity of Opintel to the U.S. Navy's close and distant blockade strategy in the 1960s and 1970s. He delves into the decentralization of intelligence processes, emphasizing the importance of adaptability and the need to prevent surprise attacks. This evolution is framed within the transition to the Navy's Ocean Surveillance Information System, a decentralized and responsive operational intelligence system. The ongoing developments of shipboard intelligence capabilities are explored, demonstrating how these advancements empowered naval commanders. In the 1970s, the organizations evolved as the revolutionary Opintel adaptations of the 1960s that leveraged cooperation without hierarchy became formalized. Leese highlights the revolution to evolution process by introducing Opintel support to shipboard tactical decisions to integrate operational intelligence into comprehensive naval strategies. Capturing the essence of this transformative period, the author discusses the cultural dynamics within the Navy that fostered innovation and interdepartmental collaboration. These developments not only contributed to maintaining a strategic edge over the Soviet Union, but also laid the groundwork for future naval operations in the digital age. Leese's work reveals the intricate interplay between technology, strategy, and personnel in creating an effective intelligence framework that allows the U.S. Navy to assert influence at sea, setting conditions for sea control in conflict. By blending rich archival research with firsthand accounts, this book offers a nuanced understanding of how the Navy adapted to an ever-changing operational landscape, ultimately preserving peace while navigating the complexities of high-stakes maritime conflict. About the Speaker: Capt. Bryan Leese, USN (Ret.), was a career naval intelligence officer with extensive experience in operational intelligence, including key roles supporting ground combat operations and tours at sea, including as the N2 (head of intelligence) of the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group and the George H. W. Bush Carrier Strike Group. He has held senior positions across the intelligence community, most notably as Chair, Defense Intelligence Department at the National Intelligence University, and as Branch Chief, Transregional and then North/West Africa in J2 (Joint Intelligence) Africa Command, during the 2011–2012 crisis in Libya. Before joining the Joint Forces Staff College in September 2023, Dr. Leese served on the faculty of the U.S. Naval War College's Joint Military Operations Department. He holds a PhD in war studies from King's College London and lives in Chesapeake, Virginia, with his wife, Elizabeth. **Learn more about IWP graduate programs: https://www.iwp.edu/academics/graduat... ***Make a gift to IWP: https://wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/W...
Capturing the sound-feel of real night quiet is special. It requires a lot of time and a location where quiet naturally occurs in more than just a fleeting way. Quiet is not silence. Silence is the absence of sound, whereas quiet happens when everything in the landscape is still audible. Just softer, and slower. Night brings quiet to natural and edgeland places. It enables us to better hear an environment's true spatialness and blend of sound signatures. By tying the Lento box to a tree looking down over the Warren on the Kent coast and exposing the microphones for over 50 hours non-stop, long periods of naturally occurring quiet were captured that serve as a true impression of this place. In this 90-minute passage of time taken from the dead of night on the second day of the recording, the sea can be heard distantly crashing onto the beach at the foot of the Warren. It surges and retreats, in slow unfurling rhythms. Close to the microphones, in the leaf litter around the tree, crickets call to each other in regular patterns, like naturally occurring clocks. Banks of wind blow in from time to time, gently ruffling leaves from left to right of scene. Sounds of indistinct origin sometimes echo across the valley, revealing the true width and depth of the space and far cries of seagulls, high flying in the vastness of the night sky. Of course this is England, and only a short distance from France. The headlights of French cars are sometimes visible from this very point. The Strait of Dover is one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world, and a flight path runs directly over this area. Despite these mechanisms of human life, the planes that do overfly during this passage of time are quite gentle in the way they traverse the sky. It is the night quiet, and the sea, and the crickets that speak for themselves, and mean we just have to share this recording so everyone can be a sound-witness to the quiet of this place. * We made this recording back in August 2024. We didn't actually intend to leave the Lento box out recording for so long (into a third day) but we're glad we did.

Priya suggested, her face filled with curiosity and enthusiasm.Hi: "अभी नहीं, प्रिया। पहले फोटो खींचना ज़रूरी है," अरुण ने उत्तर दिया।En: "Not now, Priya. Taking photos is important first," Arun replied.Hi: लेकिन समय कम था और भीड़ बढ़ती जा रही थी।En: But time was short, and the crowd was growing.Hi: प्रिया ने अरुण को राजी किया कि थोड़ी देर के लिए वो दीवाली के जश्न में शामिल हों, जिससे अपने आप तस्वीर का एक अच्छा मौका मिल सकता था।En: Priya convinced Arun to join the Diwali celebration for a while, which might naturally provide a great photo opportunity.Hi: अचानक, आसमान में आतिशबाज़ी का जोरदार प्रदर्शन शुरू हुआ।En: Suddenly, a spectacular fireworks display began in the sky.Hi: दोनों किले के एक बेहतरीन व्यू पॉइंट तक पहुँचे।En: Both reached an excellent vantage point of the fort.Hi: वहां से अम्बर किला अद्वितीय लग रहा था।En: From there, the Amber Fort looked unique.Hi: दीयों की रौशनी में लिपटा हुआ वह किला किसी स्वर्गीय दृश्य से कम नहीं था।En: Wrapped in the light of lamps, the fort was nothing short of a heavenly scene.Hi: अरुण ने फुर्ती से कैमरा उठाया और उस क्षण को जीवंत बना दिया।En: Arun quickly picked up his camera and brought that moment to life.Hi: प्रिया अब बिना किसी योजना के रोमांच को महसूस कर रही थी।En: Priya was now experiencing the thrill without any plan.Hi: रंगीन आतिशबाज़ी ने आकाश को रोशन कर दिया।En: Colorful fireworks lit up the sky.Hi: अरुण ने तेज़ी से अपने कैमरे का बटन दबाया।En: Arun rapidly pressed the button on his camera.Hi: प्रिया वहीं खड़ी मुस्कुरा रही थी।En: Priya stood there smiling.Hi: उसने महसूस किया कि कभी-कभी योजना के बिना भी जीवन का आनंद लिया जा सकता है।En: She realized that sometimes life can be enjoyed even without a plan.Hi: वहीं अरुण ने महसूस किया कि कभी-कभी सही तस्वीर के अलावा भी जिंदगी में बहुत कुछ होता है।En: Meanwhile, Arun realized that sometimes there's more to life than just the perfect photo.Hi: उनकी जयपुर यात्रा की यह शाम तो अनोखी थी पर इसने उनको कुछ नया सिखा दिया।En: This evening in Jaipur was unique for them, but it taught them something new.Hi: अरुण और प्रिया के दिलों में यह दिवाली हमेशा के लिए बस गई थी।En: The Diwali became etched in Arun and Priya's hearts forever.Hi: दोनों ने मिलकर केवल किले की नहीं, बल्कि दीवाली के उत्सव का भी आनंद लिया।En: Together, they enjoyed not just the fort, but the Diwali festival itself.Hi: आखिर में, यह यात्रा उनके लिए केवल एक यात्रा नहीं रही, यह एक खूबसूरत अनुभव बन गया।En: In the end, this trip was not just a journey for them; it became a beautiful experience.Hi: और इस तरह, अरुण और प्रिया ने यात्रा और जीवन के नए रंगों को पहचान लिया।En: And so, Arun and Priya recognized the new colors of traveling and life.Hi: दीवाली के रोशन रंग उनके जीवन की किताब में एक चमकदार पन्ना जोड़ गए।En: The bright colors of Diwali added a radiant page to their life's book.

Based in New York City, Carol prefers to leave the studio and seek out the immediacy of city life, whether sidewalks, parks, boxing studios, or Coney Island. In this conversation, Carol Fabricatore shares her extensive experience as a professional illustrator and how she teaches advanced MFA students to advance on their creative journey. She talks about the mystery of capturing motion and energy in drawing, the role of fearlessness in artistic practice, and the transformative journey of students in MFA programs. She emphasizes the value of leaving the computer and drawing by hand, the necessity of experimenting and taking risks, and the significance of narrative and storytelling in art. Carol encourages even experienced artists to explore beyond their comfort zones, leave their existing style behind, and pursue a creative journey toward new ways of seeing and working. Carol began her career in editorial and book illustration, with work appearing in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Chicago Tribune.

Send us a textWhat we celebrate reveals who we are. We open 1 Corinthians 13:6 and trace a straight line from our laughter, screens, and conversations to the loves that shape our lives. The theme is stark and liberating: love refuses to rejoice in unrighteousness and learns to rejoice with the truth. That clarity confronts how entertainment can dull our sense of holiness, how cultural approval can masquerade as compassion, and how gossip can turn our words into quiet weapons. It also offers something better: a way to cultivate joy that aligns with the heart of Christ.We walk through the subtle ways we “come alongside” darkness—by what we watch, applaud, and repeat—and why even passive approval deforms our character. Then we turn to the freedom found in truth: the gospel that anchors courage, the Scriptures that set our loves in order, and the daily practices that make a believer's life bright and credible. Along the way, we unpack why love protects rather than exposes, how speech can either heal or harm, and why celebrating obedience and repentance builds a culture of grace. A moving letter from a wife who kept covenant through decades of hardship gives a flesh-and-blood picture of what rejoicing in truth looks like when no one is cheering.If you're ready for a heart audit—of your inputs, your approvals, and your words—this conversation will give you handles to change what you feed your soul and what you celebrate out loud. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review telling us: what truth will you rejoice in today?Support the showStephen's latest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback
