Rio de Janeiro Brasil

Inicialmente habitada pelos índios tamoios, que a denominavam como Piraguá (água parada) ou Sacopenapan (caminho dos socós), com a fixação do colonizador houve o estabelecimento da lavoura de cana-de-açúcar na região, passou a ser conhecida como Lagoa de Amorim Soares, proprietário de terras às suas margens no início do século XVII. Em 1609, sendo essas terras vendidas para o seu genro, Sebastião Fagundes Varela, passou a se denominar Lagoa do Fagundes. Este latifundiário, ampliou as suas propriedades na região, de maneira que, em torno de 1620, já era proprietário de todas as terras que se estendem dos atuais bairros de Humaitá até o Leblon.

Em 1702, a sua bisneta, Petronilha Fagundes, então com 35 anos de idade, casou-se com o jovem oficial de Cavalaria Português, Rodrigo de Freitas de Carvalho, então com apenas 18 anos de idade, que deu o seu nome à lagoa. Viúvo, Rodrigo de Freitas retornou a Portugal em 1717, onde veio a falecer em 1748.

A região permaneceu em mãos de arrendatários, sem grande expressão até ao início do século XIX, quando, com a chegada da Família Real Portuguesa em 1808, o Príncipe-Regente desapropriou o Engenho da Lagoa para construir no local uma fábrica de pólvora e instalar o Real Horto Botânico (atual Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro).

A lagoa representa atualmente uma das principais atrações turísticas da capital Rio de Janeiro. E é conhecida como "O Coração do Rio de Janeiro". O bairro Lagoa recebe sua denominação devido à Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas. É um bairro de classes média-alta e alta e possui um dos maiores IDH do país.

______________________________

Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas, mostly known as "Lagoa", is a lake and district in the Lagoa, Zona Sul (South Zone) of Rio de Janeiro, surrounded by the districts of Ipanema, Leblon, Gávea, Jardim Botânico, Copacabana, Botafogo, and Humaitá.

The Lake attracts quite a number of visitors during the Christmas holidays due to its famous and gigantic Christmas Tree, which is built over a floating platform that moves around the lagoon.

Le lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas (« lac Rodrigo de Freitas » en français) est une étendue d'eau saléee située dans la zone sud de la ville de Rio de Janeiro au Brésil. Il s'agit probablement d'un ancien bras de mer dont la liaison avec l'océan Atlantique a été coupée.

Il est aujourd'hui utilisé pour la pratique de sports d'eau, comme l'aviron, ou simplement pour les loisirs

Garlic Scape & White Bean Dip (http://www.amichiganmom.com/2009/06/garlic-scapes-white-bean-dip.html)

It was time to trim the scapes off my 123 garlic plants. I just love how they curl!

I cook them and add them to any dish that would enjoy garlic but this year I discovered that you could make GARLIC SCAPE PESTO! I've made basil and even parsley pesto but I'm excited to try scapes.

I harvested the garlic scapes (flower buds) from my garlic today and made pesto. Delicious!! It's a good idea to cut the scapes off because it makes the garlic put more energy into the bulb, so you get more garlic. Plus the scapes are absolutely delicious, it's worth growing garlic just for the scapes.

Garic Scape Pesto

- A couple handfuls of garlic scapes

- A couple handfuls of basil

- About 1/2 cup toasted pecans

- About 1/4 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese

- A few TBSP olive oil

- Sea salt to taste

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until it reaches the desired consistency. Taste as you go, start off with a small amount of oil and add more to taste.

The flower stalk from garlic bulbs, scape is absolutely delicious! Cut it into 2 inch pieces, parboil for 2 minutes and saute or stir fry with greens or whatever. It tastes like a cross between garlic and asparagus. If we hadn't joined Clagett Farm, a CSA in our area, we would never have been introduced to this wonderful vegetable.
