Fall sunsets are often lovely in South Carolina. After a stressful election season, tonight's sunset seemed like a celebration of peaceful voting.

It is such a lovely day, spring!
(Looks like a good turnout this election, probably 80%)

This truck had a UAW Kerry sticker on the driver's side and a Bush sticker on the passenger side. Couldn't get close enough to get a clearer picture.
It'll be interesting to see what smart aleck comments show up on this one.
I'm torn between continuing to scream out the frustration and pain, or whether I should just shut up and try to post beautiful pictures. I try to look away and concentrate on my little world. But as I know myself, it will still burst out of me from time to time. Thank you for tolerating my opinion on this election and on the overall development of our world.
allora..mi è venuta voglia di crostata di frutta, e vorrei mangiarla domani, come può suggerire il titolo, ma .....visto che potrebbe anche andarmi di traverso, me la papperò stasera!
crostata di frutta:
ingredibbili (come diceva l'amica di un'amica di mia suocera):
pasta frolla = 500 g. farina, 250 g. burro, 130 g. zucchero, 1 pizzico di sale, buccia di limone (amalfitano, slurp!) grattuggiata, 1 tuorlo d'uovo;
crema pasticcera (o creme caramel ancora morbido) 250 g.;
frutta fresca a piacere; gelatina 1 busta.
il procedimento è facilissimo:
dopo aver impastato gli ingredienti della pasta frolla, e averla fatta rinfrescare in frigo (una palla, fasciata perchè non prenda aria), la si stende in un tegame imburrato e si lascia l'orlo più alto; si copre con carta stagnola e fagioli secchi e si inforna a 180° per 30/40 min.
mentre la torta si raffredda, si fa la crema e la si lascia raffreddare;
si cosparge la torta di crema, poi di frutta e, infine, della gelatina che, nel frattempoo sarà stata preparata (non farla raffreddare per più di 2 minuti!!)
a questo punto la si può mettere un po' in frigo e, se si è fatta buona guardia, si può anche arrivare ad assaggiarla!!!

Picture taken only 8 hours before general elections in Albania on 28th June 2009. Let's hope Elections will not go this way :P :)
Taken with a manual zoom in difficult light situation (could not see the viewfinder).
I have taken like 30 of these in order to take the lamps! And I got lucky, 3 in the same shoot time :)

I did not vote in this by-election. It was my way of protesting Liberal party and their way of mis-spending our precious tax dollars, in project fiasco like E-health. Also the HST proposal, which, I do not thing will create more jobs at all. In last election less than 2 years ago. I voted for George Smitherman. He won by a landslide of margin. People had high hope of him to make a difference. In return, he did not stick around at all. He was eyeing for a bigger position -- the Toronto mayor seat.
I could've voted for either NDP or Tory. But these candidates and their supporters (including Liberal) were pestering me everyday. They were outside subway entrances, in my apartment building at dinner hour, knocking on doors and littering a trail of flyers as they go from floor to floor. It was pretty disgusting.
In the end. Liberal has won again and it has some cleaning up to do. Not only its image. But first it has to clean up the streets!
At the end of the election, families and friends gathered in a restaurant next to a temple to watch the results come in on the TV. Was almost like watching soccer match.
Today (sunday) has been Election day here in Sweden and I have been voting and up following the results which are very even, so it is hard to tell what our government will look like.
Check out this short article and see why:

I read this light hearted piece about our election today and it did make me laugh.
An explanation of how our Election turned out.
So the Conservatives won...but lost ...Labour lost ....but won....the SNP won and lost in Scotland but still won and the Conservatives won in Scotland but lost.. .the government was Tory but now can't be even though it is still and they need to make some Irish people Tory so they can be in charge even though they were and still are...UKIP lost but because of Brexit they already won ...18 Independent won but didn't win because they don't have a party so they lost but are now MPs so they won ...the winner, Theresa May, is being told to resign because she didn't win and she won't because she won even tho she lost...
All seems perfectly straight forward to me. In fact clear as mud.
