Diary of a Serial Hostess Podcast (private feed for victoriadelamaza@icloud.com)
Gardenias and jasmine are in full bloom in Charleston, so a dinner to invite friends to walk my garden is absolutely a must. In the evening, the aroma is totally intoxicating. I am setting up drinks outside; sitting in the garden is still balmy and pleasant. Then, we move inside for dinner. Continuing my all-white table setting theme, I adorn the table with a few gardenias and fern leaves. Jasmine is too fragrant and will interfere with the flavor of the food. But gardenias are delicate, charming, and so beautiful; just a few are all that are needed to create an impact. For the table setting, I've chosen scalloped plates with my initials, sterling silverware, and etched crystal glasses. As a whimsical touch, I've included a set of napkins I had made in Madrid featuring bullfighters. It's all about creating a fun and unique atmosphere, and these napkins never fail to make me smile. The small cups are the bread plates, and, as always, I am using ivory candles to light the table. For the hors d'oeuvres, I've selected a variety of delicious bites: Trout caviar with Fritos (yes, you read that right), sour cream, and baby potatoes (for those who didn't want to sin with Fritos), as well as some spicy nuts and seasoned olives. The main course is my version of shrimp and grits. It is my version because the shrimp has both bacon and Cajun sausage for extra flavor, and the grits are actually Gnocchi a la Romana, made with the same ingredients that grits contain, just served differently, but still totally creamy and cheesy. Polenta is made with yellow corn and grits with white cornmeal, so, in essence, the same thing. I love it! I love to serve a green salad with cheese as the second course, as it elongates the dinner party and gives friends more time to chit-chat. Toasted baguettes, grapes and various jams and marmalades add sweetness to the cheese course. For dessert, roasted plums with maple syrup served with store-bought Portuguese Creme Tartes end the dinner. Here is the proper recipe for Gnocchi a la Romana. But in a pinch, you can always use those prepared polenta logs. I slice them about 1/2 inch thick, arrange them on an oven-to-table dish, drizzle them with 1/4 cup of heavy cream, and sprinkle parmesan cheese on top. Then, bake in a 350-degree oven until golden brown on top, about 30 minutes. Gnocchi a la Romana Serves 6 This is one of my beloved childhood comfort foods. It has a wonderful rib-sticking quality. Work the semolina until it separates from the pan so it is cooked through, then spread it quickly on a cookie sheet. I cut the dough using a 3-inch round cutter but it is also fun to use holiday- themed cutters when the occasion calls for it. If you prefer polenta, by all means substitute it for the semolina. The best part of making this dish? The leftovers (if there are any!) are divine the next day, reheated and served with a mixed green salad.4 cups whole milk4 cups water3 cups quick-cooking semolina flourPinch of saltPinch of nutmegFresh ground black pepper2 cups Parmesan cheese, grated3 egg yolks3 tablespoons butter plus more for the baking dishIn a medium stockpot, combine the milk with 4 cups of water and bring to a gentle boil over high heat. Add the semolina, salt, nutmeg and black pepper and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the semolina has absorbed the milk and it becomes thick enough for a wooden spoon to stand up in. Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir vigorously using a wooden spoon until the semolina releases easily from the sides of the pot. Add 1 cup of the Parmesan and the egg yolks and stir until well combined. Remove from the heat and, using a spatula, spread on a cold surface such as marble or a cookie sheet to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Let cool completely.Preheat the oven to 400 °F. Butter a 4-quart oven-to-table dish. Cut the dough into medallions using a cookie cutter or a glass and place them in the buttered dish, overlapping them slightly like scalloped potatoes. Sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese and dot with butter. Bake for 20 minutes or until the tops become crispy and golden. Let rest a few minutes; serve very hot.From the Archives Thank you for subscribing. Leave a comment or share this episode.

For over a century, Puerto Rican musicians have been influential across the hemisphere. From the Harlem Hellfighters of WWI who helped develop jazz to the reggaetoneros who dominate today's charts, Puerto Rican music is everywhere. We start the season with the island's most celebrated composer Rafael Hernandez, who wrote beloved songs like “Lamento Borincano,” “Ahora Seremos Felices,” and “Perfume de Gardenias” – and one of the island's unofficial anthems, “Preciosa.” It's a love song written for Puerto Rico that praises the island's beauty and, remarkably, also calls out the forces that oppress it. When Bad Bunny exploded onto the scene and became the most-streamed artist in the history of the world, it became undeniable that Puerto Rican lyrics – the poetry of what people sing about, the bregas in every chorus – resonate all over the hemisphere. In September, he put out a music video for his hit “El Apagón,” (“The Blackout,”) which then turned into a mini-documentary about gentrification – the way people from the states are taking advantage of tax benefits and displacing Boricuas. It's called “Aqui Vive Gente" ("People Live Here"). “El Apagón,” has become somewhat of an anthem – an installment in the long tradition of Puerto Ricans singing about home, longing and belonging, popularized by Rafael Hernandez. But Bad Bunny isn't singing about yearning for Puerto Rico – his music is often about never even leaving in the first place. It's about staying, and creating a future for Puerto Ricans in Puerto Rico. If the video's Youtube comments – declarations of solidarity – are any indication, his music has touched on something deeply relatable across Latin America. Learn more about the voices in this episode: • Myzo, the singer from the plane • Bobby Sanabria, Grammy-nominated bandleader and educator • Elena Martínez, folklorist at City Lore and the Bronx Music Heritage Center • Watch Marc Anthony's performance of “Preciosa” • Watch Bianca Graulau's documentary “Aquí Vive Gente” (“People Live Here”) Our cover of “Preciosa” is by the artist Xenia Rubinos (out in April).

Scott Sharpe helps gardeners with their questions.
Mac DeMarco wants a table for twelve, fourteen at the most, although there might be six more, or eight more, or eleven more: there would never be one or two more, because music people do not travel in groups of "one" or "two." Water of the week is the same river twice: Spindrift Pineapple and Coca-Cola Dreamworld. Also, "take a hike" is another good expression that we need to bring back, courtesy of Lilith, because it is wildly dismissive without using expletives.
La Policía Metropolitana de Barranquilla adelanta un plan especial de seguridad en el sector de Las Gardenias para garantizar la tranquilidad de sus residentes.Así lo informó su comandante, coronel Jorge Urquijo, al precisar que, durante las últimas confrontaciones, dos jóvenes resultaron lesionados.
En este episodio muy especial de Songmess la serie Boricua continua con una tremenda entrevista junto a Macha Colón. Cantautora, artista plástica, actriz, performera y cineasta, Macha Colón se ha dado a conocer cómo una artista ‘indisciplinada' rompiendo reglas y esquemas en una variedad de círculos artísticos. Nuestra conversación con Macha Colón abarca los inicios teatrales de su proyecto musical con Los Okapi, los retos y beneficios de iniciar un proyecto artístico en tu adultez (nunca es tarde!!), y cómo su ideología política y sociológica da forma a su arte. También hablamos de su reciente film Perfume de Gardenias y la logística de producir una película desde la precariedad, y llevarla a prestigios espacios como el Tribeca Film Festival. Este episodio nuevamente aborda la conversación de #YoTeCreo y la serie de denuncias que sacudieron el sector artístico y musical de Puerto Rico en otoño del 2021.

Dangerous Assignment was an NBC radio drama starring Brian Donlevy broadcast in the US 1949–1953. It preceded the James Bond character and books and may well have inspired them. "The Commissioner" sent US special agent Steve Mitchell to exotic locales all over the world, where he would encounter adventure and international intrigue in pursuit of some secret. Each show would always open with a brief teaser scene from the episode to follow. After the intro, Steve Mitchell would be summoned to the office of 'The Commissioner', the regional head of an unnamed US State Department agency created to address international unrest as it affected U.S. interests. "The Commissioner" would give background information, explain the current situation and tell Steve his assignment. Steve's cover identity, in almost all his adventures, was that of a suave debonair foreign correspondent for an unnamed print publication — his assignments invariably involved deceit, trickery, and violence, all tied together into a successful resolution by the end of the episode. Dangerous Assignment started out as a replacement radio series broadcast in the US on the NBC radio network in the summer of 1949; it became a syndicated series in early 1950. Reportedly, star Brian Donlevy himself was the one who brought the show to NBC. In the American radio shows, Donlevy was both the protagonist within the action and the narrator, giving the show "a suspenseful immediacy." The only other regular actor on the radio shows was Herb Butterfield, who played "The Commissioner." Many stage and screen actors appeared as guest-stars including, among many others, William Conrad, Raymond Burr, Richard Boone, and Eddie Cantor The radio show started out as a seven-week summer replacement series broadcast on NBC Saturdays 8:30–9 PM EST. It premiered July 9, 1949; the last episode was on August 20, 1949. A character portraying the Commissioner's secretary, 'Ruthie', was played by Betty Moran — it is hinted that there was some romantic history between Ruthie and Steve Mitchell.

Today we welcome the new month - July - and we remember the first meeting of the Vale of York Field Naturalists Club. We'll also learn about the Illinois State Flower, which was adopted on this day. We'll usher in the new month with some July poetry. We Grow That Garden Library™ with a book about how gardens and growing food help people maintain their culture. It's a personal favorite of mine. And then we'll wrap things up with a newspaper story from 1932 called "Plant Explorer Finds Adventure." But first, let's catch up on some Greetings from Gardeners around the world and today's curated news.

It's that easy. Curated News Before & After: An Urban Oasis - Flower Magazine Dwight Brown of Father Nature Landscapes wanted to honor his client's wishes for a garden that would remind him of his European travels. Brown aged the exterior with a creeping fig (Ficus pumila) for a climber on the side of the house. He also added an Oakland holly, a 'Shi-Shi Gashira' camellia, and a shaped boxwood hedge that edged a gorgeous group of 'Limelight' hydrangea. Brown says, "Much like English ivy, the creeping fig with boxwoods, mondo grass, and hydrangeas helped create the classic cottage look I wanted. We love working edibles into the ornamental landscape. Our goal was to bring back memories of the homeowner's travels to Europe, especially Italy..." Welcome July in the Garden Welcome July and all that you may bring us! For gardeners, July hosts a riot of color in our gardens. History tells us that many flowers have claimed to be the birth flower for the month of July - which, by the way, the Roman Senate named to honor Julius Caesar by. In China, July's birth flower is, fittingly, the water lily. In the rest of the world, other top July blooms for the month include the Larkspur, the Delphinium, the Sweet Pea, and the Rose. Thinking about all of these gorgeous summer blossoms that claim July's top spot reminded me of a sweet verse from the Maud poem by Tennyson. It goes like this: She is coming, my dove, my dear; She is coming, my life, my fate; The red rose cries, "She is near, she is near;" And the white rose weeps, "She is late;" The larkspur listens, "I hear, I hear;" And the lily whispers, "I wait." — Alfred Lord Tennyson, English poet, Maud (Part I) The Rose, the Larkspur, and the Lily; many of July's favorite flowers are in that little verse. Truly, July is a month of abundance and extremes. On the one hand, there's the heat, and on the other, there are the storms. In 2001, the year my daughter was born, it was mighty hot in Minnesota - well over 100 degrees for weeks on end. As a result, she ended up wearing all of the ridiculous outfits people tend to give you when you have a little baby girl; things like little halter tops and itty bitty bikini tops, teeny tiny little skorts and sundresses. Now, I always preferred to have my babies properly covered - dressed in layers and bundled. But the summer Emma was born, I changed my tune. Suddenly those little outfits seemed mighty appropriate, and I have many pictures of her - san's blankets and sweaters - keeping cool in her summer barbie-inspired clothes. In reality, the average temperature in most places in America during the month of July is a very pleasant 70 degrees. That said, just don't ask about the range - which can vary wildly. And, July is traditionally known as the month to make hay. It's been called Haymonth or Maed month, referring to haymaking and the flowering of the meadows. By July, most gardens are set, and gardeners tend to get their work done in the mornings when it is cooler and less buggy. Still, experienced gardeners know that July's biggest challenge, outside of the heat, is thunderstorms. I remember the summer a dear friend of mine had a garden tour planned for the middle of July. Sadly, it was a tour that never happened. The night before her big day, a huge storm whipped through the area, taking down trees and pelting the garden with hail. There was nothing to do but clean up. And I remember sitting on her patio after we had righted her table and chairs eating one of the little radish and cucumber sandwiches that were supposed to be for the guests that day. That day was as sour as the lemonade we sipped in the chopped salad that was my friend's garden. It's no wonder that the folk sayings of July reflect her temperature extremes. For example: If the first of July be rainy weather, 'Twill rain more or less for four weeks together. Despite the storms, we seem to remember mainly the heat of July and the vibrant blooms in the garden. It's a glorious month for ornamentals and cut flowers. One of my personal favorites is Martagon Lilies. Martagon Lilies are in peak right now in most gardens. They bring the most beautiful architectural aspect and form to the garden; they are so exquisite. Offering a Turk's cap-style bloom, Like many plants, Martagon colonies get better and better with age. Martagons like rich soil and they will be grateful for a dusting of lime every year. And here's a gentle reminder to divide your Flag Iris after they finish blooming. Regular division can re-invigorate your iris and promote healthy new growth. The saddest thing in the garden is to lose your Iris because you failed to divide them. Experienced gardeners know that the best time to divide flag iris is immediately after flowering. Once again, as I like to say, "Prune-time follows bloom-time" - or in this case, division follows bloom-time. In any case, the end of any bloom-time is usually your cue to act - so get going! With the Iris, you'll want to lift out the whole clump with a pitchfork and use a sharp knife to separate any new rhizomes. Finally, don't forget that flag irises need full sun. So if you don't have them situated properly, stage a relocation immediately. Alright, that's it for today's gardening news. Now, if you'd like to check out my curated news articles and blog posts for yourself, you're in luck, because I share all of it with the Listener Community in the Free Facebook Group - The Daily Gardener Community. There's no need to take notes or search for links - the next time you're on Facebook, search for Daily Gardener Community and request to join. I'd love to meet you in the group. Today's Important Events 1871 The Yorkshire Herald reported the first meeting of the Vale of York Field Naturalists Club. On that day, the weather was very poor. Still, almost fifty ladies and gentlemen left the Society's Rooms in Micklegate to travel in three four-horsed carriages to go to Rivaulx ("ree-VOH") Abbey. Once they arrived at the Abbey, the group then broke into small parties made up of geologists, botanists, and entomologists, and then they went out and explored the valley by the Abbey. "The geologists were interested in the sections laid bare in the quarries, and many interesting and beautiful fossils were found. [Meanwhile], the botanists collected: Saxiraga tridaclylitet (nailwort) Helianthemum vulgare (rock rose) Cuscuta Epithymum (clover dodder) Aquilegia vulgaris (columbine) Atropa Belladonna (belladonna or deadly nightshade) Polypodium Phegopterit (northern beech fern) P. Dryoplerit (oak fern) Scolopendrium vulgare (hart' s-tongue fern) At six o'clock the party sat down to dinner at the Crown Hotel, Helmsley, which was served in Mr. and Mrs. Cowen's usual substantial style… the Rev. Vice-President Rowe addressed those assembled on the advantages of natural history and the beauties and history of the Abbey. (Rowe was also the hon. secretary of the Architectural Society). It was arranged that the next monthly field day should be held at Bolton Abbey and Woods. They then left for home, after a most agreeable day, which left everyone with the feeling that this the first excursion of the club was a great success." 1908 Illinois adopted the Violet as its State Flower. As with many State Flowers, Illinois decided to let the school children of the state vote to decide the state flower. The purple Violet received 15,591 votes, and the wild rose came in second with 11,903 votes. The children also decided on the state tree, and they selected the white oak. Meanwhile, newspapers were running a piece that blared the headline, "The Reign of the Violet is Over." It said this: "Strange and unbelievable, but a fact, nevertheless, violets are no longer fashionable. Gardenias, Orchids, and American Beauty Roses are as much in evidence as ever, but the reign of the Violet is temporarily over. It is true that a large bunch of deep purple violets relieved by a single mauve orchid, a deep pink rose, or a single wax-like gardenia is still an acceptable gift, but it is not the gift that is so frequently chosen this year, as a small cluster of gardenias or even of two or three exquisitely beautiful orchids… Roses are much in favor at the moment... A new flower hailing from Paris is the pink American Beauty, and well does it deserve the name... The color is an adorable shade of shell pink, and for all decorative purposes, this flower has already a firmly established place in fashion's regard.... One cannot but regret the sense of chivalry of a generation back when etiquette demanded that flowers always be sent to a hostess before even the least formal entertainment, and when a debutante [would rather] stay at home than go to a ball without ... [a] little bouquet of flowers." 1910 The Allentown (Pennsylvania) Democrat paper reported that Joseph Hooker was 93 years old. Here's what it said: "Sir Joseph Hooker, the world-famous botanist, received a personal note of congratulations from King George today on the occasion of his ninety-third birthday. Sir Joseph, who is still remarkably active for a man of his great age, has had a long and brilliant career in his chosen field of science. As early as 1839, he accompanied the expedition of Sir James Ross to the Antarctic region. Later he conducted scientific expeditions to many parts of the world… In the course of his active career, he rendered invaluable services to the British arts, manufacturers and commerce by promoting an accurate knowledge of the floras and economic vegetable products of the various colonies and dependencies of the empire." Unearthed Words As I mentioned earlier in the show, July is the month of heat and storms, and that is reflected in a number of poems. In scorched July The storm-clouds fly. — Christina Georgina Rossetti, English poet, The Months If the first of July be rainy weather, It will rain, more or less, for four weeks together. — John Ray, English naturalist and writer, English Proverbs When storms finally break through the July heat, there is also the immeasurable pleasure that accompanies the deluge: the smell of rain. A break in the heat away from the front no thunder, no lightning, just rain, warm rain falling near dusk falling on eager ground steaming blacktop hungry plants Thirsty turning toward the clouds cooling, soothing rain splashing in sudden puddles catching in open screens that certain smell of summer rain. — Raymond A. Foss, American poet, Summer Rain This poem perfectly captures the ferocity of summer storms in the garden: The rain to the wind said, 'You push, and I'll pelt.' They so smote the garden bed That the flowers actually knelt, And lay lodged--though not dead. I know how the flowers felt. — Robert Frost, American poet, Lodged The July rains encourage special summer blooms. Hot July brings cooling showers, Apricots, and gillyflowers. — Sara Coleridge, English author, The Garden Year If you are wondering what gillyflowers are, you are not alone. Gillyflowers was a term that often referred to plants from the mustard family like the wallflower, carnation, clove pink, or white stock. Gilly is derived from the Latin and Greek words for clove. Grow That Garden Library The Earth Knows My Name by Patricia Klindienst This book came out in April of 2007, and the subtitle is: Food, Culture, and Sustainability in the Gardens of Ethnic Americans Patricia Klindienst is a master gardener and an award-winning scholar and teacher. She lives in Guilford, Connecticut, and teaches creative writing each summer at Yale University. Patricia Klindienst went to many different gardens - urban, suburban, and rural - in order to write this book. She had seen an old family photo of her Italian immigrant family and was inspired not only to learn about her ancestor's struggle to adapt to America, but also eager to hear stories from other families. The jacket to Patricia's book reminds us that, "As we lose our connection to the soil, we no longer understand the relationship between food and a sense of belonging to a place and a people." How do gardens and growing food help people maintain their culture? This is the question Patricia explores in her book. Vegetables, fruits, and flowers provide so much more than sustenance, food, and beauty. They convey who and where we are and what we are about. In her review of this book, the author Deborah Madison said, "We who are far removed from our own immigrant roots will do well to study these eloquent stories and learn from them. Patricia Klindienst has given us nothing less than a great gift." The book is 208 pages of ways we can connect to the earth - all shared with today's gardener in mind. You can get a copy of The Earth Knows My Name by Patricia Klindienst and support the show, using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $3. Today's Botanic Spark 1932 Newspapers worldwide ran a fascinating article about the botanist Frank Kingdon-Ward titled "Plant Explorer Finds Adventure." "Captain Frank Kingdon-Ward, tall, well-built son of Britain, probably one of the world's most noted plant seekers... has journeyed all over the world in search of rare flowers, has led a life as exciting as any explorer and has given the world some of its most beautiful and rare blooms. Now In his late 40's, he is tanned from the winds and suns of tropical India, Asia, and the forbidden land of Tibet. He has collected flowers from the heights of the Himalayas, and from the depths of marshy Indian -jungles. His last expedition occurred In 1931. On it, he discovered a new pass into Tibet 35,000 feet above sea level, through an out-flung range of the Himalayas. His efforts in prying through thick jungles and climbing high mountains were rewarded in the discovery of a new species of slipper orchid, said to be worth about $500. On another of his Tibetan expeditions, he discovered the blue poppy, a flower that is sought by all Horticulturists in this country and obtained by few. To give an idea of the trying conditions under which he labored, consider that he discovered a new river, the Nam-Tamai, the lost source of the Irrawaddy, which no white man in 2,000 years of civilization had found. All along this river, through virgin forest, he and his small band trudged, meeting wild beasts and hostile bands of natives… He located a people … known only as...the Darus. These people had never seen a white man before Kingdon-Ward arrived. One of the most unusual plants he ever discovered was the rare Nomocharis farreri, a beautiful flower of China. This plant was found by accident and during the height of a violent rainstorm. The flower itself Is rose pink outside and dappled with royal purple inside. Each stem, from 12 to 15 inches in height, bears one, two, or three of the flowers, which grow as large as teacups. The flower which Captain Kingdon-Ward prizes most of all is the Campanula Calicola, "perhaps the most beautiful rock plant I discovered." It was found growing in limestone cliffs and is adaptable lo rock gardens. The Orient is rich in flowers. That land has given us many of our choice blooms. Roses come from India and China; pinks, carnations, and daffodils from Asia Minor; and numerous rare orchids come from the wilds of Tibet. Captain Kingdon-Ward describes a land of rare rhododendrons vividly in a book he wrote on his adventures in China and Asia. "You may wander for days ankle-deep through a chromatic surf of rhododendrons, rose pink, ivory white, lavender, plum purple, crimson and amber yellow. They are woven into carpets of queer design and ample pile, or form tuffets, or hassocks or mere tangles, mats, or brooms. "They spread and sprawl everywhere, bushy and twigulous, all; looming Into flower together; still looking across the dark ocean of moorland, you see the billowy hills crested with color; and, where escarpments break the even roll, the plant growth surges high up the rocks. It Is western Szechwan - the Tibetan marshes - [and] home of the 'Lapponicum' rhododendrons.

Brevities #OTD It was on this day in 1871, the Yorkshire Herald reported the first meeting of the Vale of York Field Naturalists Club. Although the weather was very unfavorable, forty-seven ladies and gentlemen (members and friends of the club) left the Society's Rooms, in Micklegate, in three four-horsed conveyances. When they reached Rivaulx ("ree-VOH")Abbey, the company then broke up into small parties - geologists, botanists, and entomologists - and proceeded to examine the valley for their own specialities. "The geologists were interested with the sections laid bare in the quarries, and many interesting and beautiful fossils were found The botanists collected, amongst other plants, Saxiraga tridaclylitet (nailwort), Helianthemum vulqare (rock rose), Cuscuta Epithymum (clover dodder), Aquilegia vulgaris (columbine), Atropa Belladonna (belladonna or deadly nightshade), Polypodium Phegopterit (northern beech fern), P. Dryoplerit (oak fern), besides the common Scolopendrium vuigare (hart's-tongue fern). At six o'clock the party sat down to dinner at the Crown Hotel, Helmsley, which was served in Mr. and Mrs. Cowen's usual substantial style, after doing justice to which the Rev.

A new flower hailing from Paris is the pink American Beauty, and well does it deserve the name... the color is an adorable shade of shell pink, and for all decorative purposes tins flower has already a firmly established place in fashion's regard. ... one cannot but regret the sense of chivalry of a generation back, when etiquette demanded that flowers be sent always to a hostess before even the least formal entertainment, and when a debutante had better stay at home than go to a ball without her ... little bouquet of flowers." #OTD It was on this day in 1910 that the Allentown Democrat out of Allentown PA reported that Joseph Hooker was 93 years old. "Sir Joseph Hooker, the world-famous botanist, received a personal note of congratulations from King George today on the occasion of his ninety-third birthday. Sir Joseph, who is still remarkably active for a man of his great age, has had a long and brilliant career in his chosen field of science. As early as 1839 he accompanied the expedition of Sir James Ross to the Antarctic region. Later he conducted scientific expeditions to many parts of the world including Eastern Bengal, the Himalayas, the Khasia Mountains, Morocco and the Greater Atlas, New Zealand Ceylon, California and the Rocky Mountain region of North America. In the course of his active career he rendered invaluable services to the British arts, manufactures and commerce by promoting an accurate knowledge of the floras and economic vegetable products of the various colonies and dependencies of the empire." Unearthed Words Today's poem is by Ann Taylor - an English poet and literary critic. In her youth she was a writer of verse for children, for which she achieved long-lasting popularity. Her sister, Jane, wrote the words to "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". The Violet Down in a green and shady bed, A modest violet grew; Its stalk was bent, it hung its head As if to hide from view. And yet it was a lovely flower, Its color bright and fair; It might have graced a rosy bower, Instead of hiding there. Yet thus it was content to bloom, In modest tints arrayed; And there diffused a sweet perfume, Within the silent shade. Then let me to the valley go This pretty flower to see; That I may also learn to grow In sweet humility. Today's book recommendation: Tree in the House by Annabelle Hickson A Tree in the House is stunning; an ode to flower arranging. A Tree in the House celebrates the art of arranging flowers for celebrations big, small and in-between held throughout the year. Annabelle Hickson provides ideas and instructions for celebratory botanical installations and arrangements, each staged and photographed in different rural homes, gardens and sheds using the beauty of what's growing wild. Interspersed throughout are snapshots—in words and pictures—of rural life and that aspirational rustic country aesthetic. Today's Garden Chore Divide your Flag Iris after they finish blooming Regular division can re-invigorate your plant and promote healthy growth. The best time to divide flag iris is immediately after flowering. Lift the whole clump and use a sharp knife to detach new rhizomes. Don't forget that flag irises need full sun. Something Sweet Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart #OTD It was on this day in 1932, that newspapers around the world ran a fascinating article about the botanist Frank Kingdon-Ward titled "Plant Explorer Finds Adventure". "Captain Frank Klngdon-Ward, tall, well-built son of Britain, probably one of the world's most noted plant seekers, who has journeyed all over the world in search of rare flowers, has led a life as exciting as any explorer, and has given the world some of its most beautiful and rare blooms. Now In his late "40's, he is tanned from the winds and suns of tropical India, Asia, and the forbidden land of Tibet. He has collected flowers from the heights of the Himalayas, and from the depths of marshy Indian -jungles. His last expedition occurred In 1931. On It he discovered a new pass into Tibet 35,000 feet above sea level, through an out-flung range of the Himalayas. His efforts in prying through thick jungles and climbing high mountains were rewarded in the discovery of a new species of slipper orchid, said to be worth about $500. On another of his Tibetan expeditions, he discovered the blue poppy, a flower that is sought by all Horticulturists in this country and obtained by few. To give an idea of the trying conditions under which he labored, consider that he discovered a new river, the Nam-tamai, the lost source of the Irrawaddy which no white man in 2,000 years of civilization had found. Along this, river, through virgin forest, he and his small band trudged, meeting wild beasts and hostile bands of natives. Back in the wild country he located a people hitherto known only ; as a vaguely surmised race, the Darus. These people had never seen a white man before Kingdon-Ward arrived. One of the most unusual plants he ever discovered was the rare Nomocharis Farreh, a beautiful flower of China. This plant was found by accident and during the height of a violent rainstorm. The flower itself Is rose pink outside, and dappled with royal purple inside. Each stem, from 12 to 15 inches in height, bears one, two or three of the flowers, which grow as large as teacups. The flower which Captain Kingdon-Ward prizes most of all is the Campanula Calicola, "perhaps the most beautiful rock plant I discovered." It was found growing in limestone cliffs, and Is adaptable lo rock gardens. The Orient is rich in flowers. That land has given us many of our choice blooms. Roses come from India and China; pinks, carnations and daffodils from Asia Minor, and numerous rare orchids come from the wilds of Tibet. Captain Kingdon-Ward describes a land of rare rhododendrons vividly in a book he wrote on his adventures in China and Asia. "You may wander for days ankle-deep through a chromatic surf of rhododendrons, rose pink, ivory white, lavender, plum purple, crimson and amber yellow. They are woven into carpets of queer design and ample pile, or form tuffets, or hassocks or mere tangles, mats or brooms. "They spread and sprawl everywhere, bushy and twigulous, all; looming Into flower together; still looking across the dark ocean of moorland you see the billowy hills crested with color; and, where escarpments break the even roll, the plant growth surges high up the rocks, It Is western Szechwan, the Tibetan marshes. home of the 'Lapponicum' rhododendrons. Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

I was so excited to sit down with Chef Desmond Pringle, a master cake artist who I've been insta-stalking for quite some time now. Chef Pringle is the owner of Gardenia's Custom Cakes and Catering in Columbia, South Carolina (my home state!). He creates high end cakes for luxury weddings and events. His work is mesmerizing and truly a work of art. On this episode, Chef Pringle gives AMAZING information to those who are considering opening a cake studio. I was so enthralled I had to get out my own journal and start taking notes. Enjoy!

Bienvenidos a ERA Magazine, el podcast diario de la música independiente española. Hoy inauguramos sección: La playlist de… El primer invitado, Francisco Nixon. Buenos días a todos los amantes de la música indie. Antes de comenzar comentar a los grupos que nos estéis escuchando, que si queréis presentar vuestras canciones en el podcast de ERA Magazine, solo tenéis que mandarnos un email a través de eramagazine.fm/contacto. Antes dar la bienvenida a nuestro invitado de hoy, saludamos a nuestro compañero Borja Buján, desde Bilbao. Hola Borja, qué tal, cómo va todo? Ya se termina el verano… Y damos paso ya a nuestro invitado que necesita poca presentación. Solo con decir los grupos de los que ha formado parte (Australian Blonde y La Costa Brava) creo que todos sabemos quién nos acompaña. Pero cabe recordar que ya lleva más de 10 años editando discos con su propio nombre. # Francisco Nixon, bienvenido al podcast de ERA Magazine. Primero, antes de presentar tu playlist, cuéntanos en qué estás metido ahora, como Deezer, la otra gran plataforma de música en streaming, ¿no? # Pues sin más dilación, vamos a por las canciones que has seleccionado, la primera de ellas no conocía al grupo, la verdad. “Vivencias Propias”, de Los Ganglios. Usar el humor en las canciones siempre es delicado, ya que es algo muy personal y que depende mucho del contexto, con lo cual se pasa de moda en seguida. Lo que me gusta de Los Ganglios, aparte de que tienen mucho ingenio, es que su humor es en gran parte autorreferencial, por lo que conectan con cuestiones clave del propio proceso de creación artística. Por ejemplo, en esta canción, se cuestionan los conceptos de autoría, arte testimonial, etc., de una manera muy inteligente. # La segunda elegida es una cantautora catalana. Cuéntanos. “Manos vacías”, de María Rodés. Creo que es un disco muy valiente, tanto por ser una artista catalana haciendo copla, como por atreverse a revisar grandes clásicos de la música popular. Esos discos que surgen de un “concepto” suelen producirme rechazo, la mayoría de las veces creo que les falta sentimiento y verdad, pero en este caso creo que el resultado no puede ser mejor. Es de los discos que más veces he escuchado en los últimos años. # En tercer lugar, una versión de Sr. Chinarro que me encanta, la verdad. “María de las Nieves”, de Destroyer. Ser un músico español es como ser un director de cine español, toda tu vida has de luchar contra esa idea de que la música española es una mierda, o de que el cine español es una mierda. Yo creo que esta canción demuestra que eso no es del todo verdad. El mayor problema es la falta de medios, materiales y humanos. Aquí se juntan dos de mis artistas favoritos con resultados sobresalientes. # En cuarto lugar, una artista del underground barcelonés. “Gardenias”, de Elsa de Alfonso y Los Prestigio. Hubiera dado cualquier cosa por haber escrito esta canción. Me resulta inmensamente emocionante por razones que desconozco. Supongo que tiene que ver con esa mezcla de bolero y producción espacial que sintoniza con tantas cosas que me gustan y con las que me identifico. Ahora, una canción de un grupo que por desgracia se separó en 2002, habiendo editado tres discos fantásticos de pop. “Sunshine”, de Carrots. Creo que Willy es un genio y uno de los músicos más subestimados de España. Ha tenido la mala suerte de que su música no ha encontrado un referente de éxito fuera. Al contrario de lo que nos hacen pensar, en general todo arte demasiado personal produce rechazo. Para que te hagan caso la gente tiene que poder compararte con algún caso de éxito previo. Lo cual es normal. # Y para finalizar, un detalle muy bonito… Cuéntanos. “Mientras la música no pare”, de Linda Mirada. Cualquier cosa que yo pueda decir de Ana queda invalidada por el hecho de ser mi pareja. Simplemente comentar que soy fan de lo que hace, que me ha enseñado mucho, y que siempre me ha parecido muy valiente. # Muchas gracias, Fran, por haber estado en el podcast de ERA Magazine. En las notas del programa dejaremos los enlaces pertinentes para que puedan seguir tu música. Mucha suerte. Con esta canción nos despedimos por hoy. Si nos escucháis a través de iTunes, iVoox o Spreaker, una valoración de 5 estrellas o un me gusta ayudará a dar a conocer este podcast. Recuerda, a la gente le encanta la música indie, pero todavía no lo sabe. Adiós. Contacto Fran Nixon: Facebook / Twitter / Lista en Deezer
I had a very difficult time passing the science courses in college. In fact I struggled so much that I had to drop it twice and failed a third attempt. I knew that it was impossible; and certainly wasn’t for lack of trying. I was so pleased when I learned, that as an alternative, there was an Environmental Science class that could substitute the biology requirement; and an Environmental Pollution class that substituted the chemistry requirement. I knew that was my way out. Those classes were by far the most enjoyable classes I had taken. Not only did it provide me with a thorough understanding of the natural environment in South Florida it also gave me a new appreciation for our environment. So for this week’s podcast, I invited Henry Mayer of the UF/IFAS Miami-Dade County Extension to join us and talk about how the environment impacts our condominium and homeowner associations and what we need to do to safeguard them. In particular there is a great concern that there is too much development and construction in South Florida and that it can have a detrimental impact one of our most valued resources, water. Per Henry, we have 5 million acres of lawn in the State of Florida and we need to manage our resources carefully to ensure that we are not wasting water. Water of course has a tremendous impact on our lives and provides a lot of the nutrients plants need to keep their cell content. It is important for those of us managing irrigation systems in our communities, be extra careful that we do not over water our plants. In conjunction to water, plants need good soil to provide plants with additional nutrients they need to grow. Henry further adds that non-native plants, such as Ixoras, Magnolias, Foxtails, and Gardenias tend to do very poorly in South Florida because our soil is very alkaline. He then clarifies that compacted soil, which means that the soil has lost all of its nutrients is caused by machinery, when you park your vehicle on the grass, or you regularly walk on a trail. In addition to water, nutrients and soil, a tree’s root system plays a major role. When seeds germinate, early in plant’s life cycle, they produce roots going down; but those roots in South Florida tend to die very soon because our water table is very high and they do not have enough oxygen. When this happens the lateral roots grow. Lateral roots are very close to the surface and are very important as they provide anchorage to the tree, allow for storage of nutrients, and help absorb water with additional nutrients. Henry adds that most roots are in the top 2 to 3 feet of soil. There are some roots that often times grow above the surface. Henry informs us that this happens because the tree is looking for oxygen. Unfortunately, in communities, lateral roots are a major tripping hazard. This is especially true in older communities built many years ago where developers installed Black Olives because they grew fast and provided a lot of shade. A Black Olive’s root system is extremely invasive and can often times cause damage to the plumbing lines, lift up pavement or sidewalks that can cause a tripping hazard, and, in some extreme cases, the roots can cause structural damage. To help reduce liability in your community, you can cover the roots with either 1” to 2” of gravel or with no more than 2” to 3” of mulch. Because mulch decomposes it should be reapplied every 6 months. If the roots are so invasive that you must cut them, he recommends that you stay away more than 5 times diameter the trunk. He provided an example: a tree with a 20” diameter multiplied by 5 equals 100” or 8 feet. You should not cut any roots within those 8 feet that are close to the trunk. Those roots are anchorage roots and they help stabilize the tree. If these roots are cut the tree’s stability is compromised, especially with Tropical Storm or Hurricane winds. And while we are discussing Tropical Storms and Hurricanes, Henry recommends that trees be trimmed before Hurricane Season. He stated that the general guidelines require that not more than 25-30% of canopy be trimmed in any one event. There are different techniques used by arborists to reduce the canopy but one cannot “hat-rack” the tree. He adds that arborists should provide specific information as to how the branches are going to be cut. We all know that landscaping is one way to miss a big impact on a community’s value. In order to have a successful landscaping project, the way your trees are planted play a big role. I know I have never had a green thumb; and have killed every plant I’ve ever received. I now know that it is because I was making my planting holes too deep. Henry informed us that you cannot plant trees too deep because this prevents the tree from getting the nutrients it desperately needs and the roots do not develop. The other consideration is the planting hole has to be three times wider than the root ball. In addition, new plants need a lot of water for the plant to really grow. The team at the UF/IFAS Miami-Dade County Extension is able to come out to your community free of charge to conduct an assessment of your common area and help you learn what you can do to improve the landscaping plan in your community.
