"Besides the precious metal value and visual aesthetic, a silver utensil can 'self-sanitize' and is 'cleaner' to eat with it primarily because silver has antimicrobial properties due to the 'oligodynamic effect' of the silver metal. " ~Tomitheos

The silver spoon was also used to detect if the food had any kind of poisonous chemicals by changing its color; this way the wealthy landowner of the Middle Ages would know if he had been served a poisonous dish from his servants by observing the discoloration of his spoon.
When you drop a raisin in the glass of champagne, do you know what it will do? It is going to bounce up and down from the bottom of the top, continuously.
In the song lyrics from 'Hotel California' from The Eagles
they had "..mirrors on the ceiling.. ♪ ♫ pink champagne on ice.."
Pink Champagne was made famous in the 1957 classic movie 'An Affair to Remember' when both of the lead romantic actors fall in love with each other and share 'pink bubbly'.

Champagne is made from four different grapes:
1. Chardonnay (white wine grape)
2. Pinot Noir (red wine grape)
3. Pinot Meunier
4. Pinot Gris
So how come all Champagne is not pink?
fun facts:
Grapes are all white on the inside and it is only the outside skin that has any color. Therefore one can make a white wine out of a red grape; just remove the skins immediately so that there is no red color added to the wine liquid.
For example Zinfandel is a white wine yet zinfandel is a red grape. To make a white Zinfandel, they just let the skins stay on the liquid for a short while, this allows a small amount of the tint from the red skin color the wine liquid, giving it a nice blush color.
When they make a Champagne, even though they use 'red grapes' they take the skin away immediately so that none of the red color from the skin affects the overall color of the Champagne liquid.
In order to make a Champagne a pink Champagne, all they have to do is let the skins sit with the liquid for a short while. The longer it sits together, the more blush pink the liquid becomes.

While picking up my order of coffee this afternoon, I spotted the Starbuck's sign reflected in a drop of water / coffee on the counter. Of course, I snapped and flipped it! :-)
Have a great Wednesday and thanks for the visit.

— Here is a translated description in English:
How often do we allow ourselves to simply stop and look at familiar things with fresh eyes? To notice details that were previously unseen? Have you ever observed that with careful examination, more and more nuances reveal themselves with each glance?
There are so many objects around us, yet we would struggle to provide a comprehensive description of even the most frequently used ones. So many people surround us, and yet we have forgotten how those we love and spend so much time with truly look… We change things, alter our appearance, switch fragrances—all just to be seen as if for the first time. To have someone notice our joys and sorrows, the rich experiences that leave their marks on our fragile bodies.
From time to time, especially in new places or moments of waiting, I consciously challenge myself to find as many details as possible in the people, objects, and structures around me. Minute by minute, layer by layer, line by line, I delight in discovering new facets of what seemed so familiar yet remained unnoticed. I turn off my gadgets and try to halt the endless stream of thoughts… And suddenly, I realize that even the wallpaper in my bedroom has multiple shades, despite my previous certainty that it was monochrome. I see three colors, different patterns, and intricate designs. With every new glance, more details emerge, details that had been carefully hidden from my awareness. Or perhaps my mind simply refused to perceive them because my life is already overflowing with information?
By returning to reality and allowing ourselves to truly observe the world around us, we not only discover new facets of it but also expand our inner world. Moreover, such mindful practices help us connect with something greater, to see the world as it truly is. And to realize that most of our problems, worries, and fears exist solely in our minds or in the boundless digital universe… Where are your concerns, where are your anxieties when you are fully present in the here and now? Our digital reality demands that we occasionally step out into the real world to reassess our priorities.
Now, take a look at this photograph. Just like me, you can discover countless facets within it—patterns, shades, and textures of this exquisite amaryllis flower. With just a little time and attention, you can see how profoundly beautiful, multifaceted, and unique nature's creations truly are. And then it becomes clear: within every flower, there is far more than just a flower...
— and the original one in Russian:
Как часто мы можем позволить себе просто остановиться и взглянуть на привычные вещи по-новому? Рассмотреть незнакомые доселе детали? Замечали ли вы, что при детальном рассмотрении с каждым взглядом открывается всё больше и больше нюансов?
Сколько предметов вокруг нас, а мы вряд ли сможем дать исчерпывающее описание даже самых часто используемых вещей. Сколько людей рядом, а мы уже и забыли, как в действительности выглядят те, кого любим, с кем проводим так много времени... Нам приходится менять вещи, изменять свой облик, менять запахи — всё ради того, чтобы кто-то мимолётно увидел нас как в первый раз. Рассмотрел наши печали и радости, наш богатый опыт, который оставляет свои следы на хрупком теле.
Время от времени, особенно в новых местах или в моменты ожидания, я сознательно ищу как можно больше деталей в окружающих меня людях, предметах, строениях. Минуту за минутой, слой за слоем, линия за линией я с восторгом открываю новые грани, которые, казалось бы, всегда были передо мной, но оставались незамеченными. Я отключаю гаджеты, стараюсь остановить бесконечный мыслительный поток… И вдруг понимаю, что даже обои в моей спальне имеют несколько оттенков, хотя я был уверен, что они однотонные. Вижу три цвета, разные узоры, орнаменты. С каждым новым взглядом открываются новые детали, которые прежде тщательно скрывались от моего сознания. Или, быть может, моё сознание само отказывалось их замечать, потому что в моей жизни и так слишком много информации?
Возвращаясь в реальность и позволяя себе замечать окружающий мир, мы не только открываем его новые грани, но и расширяем свой внутренний мир. Более того, такие познавательные практики помогают нам подключиться к чему-то большему, увидеть мир таким, какой он есть на самом деле. И осознать, что большинство наших проблем, тревог и страхов существуют лишь в нашей голове или в бесконечной виртуальной вселенной… Где все ваши заботы, где ваши тревоги, когда вы находитесь здесь и сейчас? Наша цифровая реальность требует от нас периодически выходить в окружающий мир, чтобы пересмотреть приоритеты.
А теперь взгляните на эту фотографию. Как и я, вы можете открыть в ней множество граней — множество узоров, оттенков, текстур этого прекрасного цветка амариллиса. Достаточно лишь немного времени и внимания, чтобы разглядеть, насколько глубоки, многогранны и неповторимы творения природы. И тогда станет ясно: в каждом цветке есть нечто большее, чем просто цветок...
I dreamt of a leaf on my fingertips.
A leaf that grew between my lips,
My eyes were opened in my sleep..
I saw it unfold before it leaped.
It was not dry, this maple leaf..
But it could not drink the rain's relief;
Its shadow grew tall below my hand,
It then took flight on the wind's command.

welcome to my little swirl house
in the orchard on the tree
I live in a room big enough for me
you can stay here my friend
but you'll have to stay to the very end

5 steps a nude model should know:
1. Discuss your comfort level with the artist, physical attributes, flexibility and abilities (yoga, karate etc.)
2. Shower or bathe bathe before the session, this improves the skin's appearance.
3. Bring your own robe, towel to sit on, a thong (for women), a sock (for men) and slippers.
4. Follow the artist's direction during the session and ask before moving from your position.
5. Upon completion, ask for feedback and if you are required to be scheduled for another session.
