The 18 from outside

This month will mark 200 years of the independence of Chile. Sure to be a party of those in which no expenses spared, any more than the big stick of his life drunk or have the pleasure of dancing for the first time a foot cueca or eat the best existing pie. Although the feelings are intense and new technologies do not stop reminding us of the little party to be pasted in Chile (for a while Facebook does nothing to speak of pies, wine, roasted and livers that have enjoyed a apparent calm after the storm with their owners feed them soon got worse.) For those who are far from " promised land" of this great event, things are not at that point of "popular dieciochera madness" that has gripped Chile ... and there is some sadness accompanying the party, a hint of desire overnight funds can not supplant, just because you're not in Chile.

In that sense, this is also the bicentennial anniversary of the poem 30 dieciochero prettiest I've read, because since the book of my grandfather came to me (thanks guys in Paris) I have not stopped thinking about it now I live on September 18 abroad, just as it once did for following his convictions (but not on a voluntary basis as I have been lucky enough to do so). That's why today, with an excerpt from the words of my grandfather, I want to honor under these lines are not people, but to the feelings of those who pass away on 18.

These verses were written reflective in 1980 in the midst of an African country called Mozambique, the only thing that was of Chilean exiles were. My grandfather on the day (to fix the teeth of people) was a poet, perhaps as we are all Chileans then and now for the September 18.

NO FLAGS

is September 18

and no flags. Neither

kites or greasy pole,

or arbors, or cuecas.

People walk down the street indifferent

as if nothing happened.

is Monday.

new week begins.

is September 18

and nobody seems to realize. Eighteen

September!

Today the country is a party! Here

military chords are not heard. There

Te Deum in the church.

Chileans have converged

to drink beer ...

Today is September 18!

On this date,

bad as things are, the Chilean

happy as Easter and New Year,

fits anyway.

and wine provided

friend when the party or the penalty,

be absent among us today.

There is no wine, only beer ... We

chauvinists and country

hurts more from the outside.

But ours is a

chauvinism with a huge moral support, to transcendence, and quality

,

attached to the land

with unstoppable force that surpasses

flag and fanfare clumsy military ...

is sad to walk the streets indolent

in a foreign land

thinking, a September 18

no banners.

remember what is sad is the patria

when spring begins to appear. Sad walking

thinking that will never again be what it was ...

Imagining how sad it must be

live in it today. And how sad

away the afternoon

when you think ...

is Monday.

The street is deserted.

night has fallen gradually

hugging the trees in shadow ...

is September 18

and no flags ...!

We walk into the night

to seek solace in beer. Alberto Reyes

Brief reflection on auditory habituation

Simpsons Spain English version

When we arrived in Spain we never thought this would happen, but slowly and with the generous help of the secretive passage of time our ears has been used to the English accent. It is so now to see the U.S. television series or even The Simpsons with English pronunciation does not sound weird. That would be nice if only that it had been accustomed to that, but the central problem we are experiencing is that when we hear the Latin translations read like a story of a football match between "Las Chivas de Guadalajara and America Mexico. Our auditory system has lost that wonderful, but disability was rude for not being able to distinguish the foreign pronunciation when he saw TV in Chile and is something that discouraged when you realize that despite the English idioms embedded in the dialogue between the gringo series (although we have not used), Homer Simpson "I sound better that way to Mexicanized version for A. America.

Despite this shift in auditory preference, I note that our pronunciation (with some more slang idioms Spain and some less than Chile) remains that of the average Chilean, and I think it will continue because there is no way that we can get used to pronounce the "z" with "z" or "s" with "sh."

The top five summer meals

When the holidays arrive in the summer most people loose every realm of things, and not sleep until the alarm starts furiously us of our dreams because we think no self-imposed targets nor have to worry about walking following rules (like clothing in some papers). Summer mix of freedom and heat mobbing in a way that when you come back to reconnect to the "matrix is that freedom stifling heat loss and those which are kept in memory. Personally for me, I'm one of those gourmet moderate, summer, and in fact many parties have to associate with the pleasures of good food and it is in this context that this post talks about the five richest food I tried this summer reeds and enjoyed full freedom of not worrying about triglycerides, cholesterol, weight, or side effects. Order will Here and rise.

The 5: restaurant fried anchovies "Boundary" of Carboneras. These little fishes are all culinary pleasure. I remember when arrive to Spain, my friend Toño Montes presented to us in vinegar and were incredible, but over time no doubt that this recipe (the top-veins by the way) is what takes the cake taste more even if you eat at this restaurant, because not only make them delicious, but also free and you serve them in large numbers along with the classic beer.

The 4: May Churrasco tomato avocado bread kneading the restaurant 8 May in Madrid. Is it because of what Chilean long ago I ate one? , or why he was simply delicious? I I opted for a mixture of both and highly recommend that anyone who walks through Madrid, eager to taste patriotic (if Chile) or interested in trying food from the end of the world, do not forget to go to prey on this "Sanguchito" or any other delicacy those in the menu.

The 3: Albacore to butter by Nohelia. Simply spectacular, one day you guys were here for Paris Madrid, Nohe tore into the kitchen and surprised us all with this dish, first rammed the exquisite texture of the meat and then let you taste a total pleasure when the mixture of herbs, butter and fish essences together in the mouth. Undoubtedly a recommended dish to receive friends, make peace, to bring distinction to the table or just enjoy this most distinguished marine animal.

On 2. The classic Valencian rice to either Uncle Luciano version or the version of the Mediterranean Arrocerías 2x1 with its promotion. This dish will always have a prominent place in any existing or top five that I believe exist in relation to food. For me, the paella is like a set of everything I like in a dish, there are coexisting in a harmonious combination galactic seafood, meats and vegetables all wrapped in the mists of saffron makes this dish is undoubtedly the best way to mix everything to make something sublime.

The 1. In the first place we have an absolute dead heat between two plates that have left a dent in the memory culinary summer 2010. The first is the home sushi we learned has to do with Nohe after we tired of having to pay up the win for him in restaurants. The truth is that it has been a dream and in two weeks and we have prepared two times, always with a little variation salmon and the rest ( surimi sticks, cream cheese, avocado, etc). The other winner

the season is the golden salt we ate at a restaurant in Carboneras whose name escapes me now. Simple to make, incredible presentation (baked potatoes were also in fear) and exquisite taste, who could imagine that plugging a fish with salt and putting it in the oven, the result would be so tasty?

In order to resume after this summer I'll have to diet, but it is an undeniable fact that we ate again and enjoy rich dishes that will not forget, let alone those that are already part of our master recipe ( and albacore sushi.) Greetings and have if someone is there a special dish for these few remaining days of the European summer.
