Recipe: Doro wat 
A staple in the Ethiopian diet, this chicken stew is very easy to make.
Ingredients 
2-3 lb. chickens, cut into pieces
3 sticks butter
3 lbs. onion, finely chopped
2 large cloves garlic, minced, or 2 tsp. garlic powder
3 heaping tblsp. berbere
9 oz. tomato paste
10 hard-boiled eggs, slightly scored
1 tsp. ground black pepper 
injera
Method
Remove skin from chicken and score each piece slightly with a knife so the sauce can penetrate.
In a large stew pot, melt the butter, then saute the onions and garlic for 5 minutes. Add berbere, followed by tomato paste, stirring occasionally while mixture simmers for about 15 minutes. A piece at a time, stir the chicken, coating well with the sauce.
Continue to simmer, adding enough water to maintain the consistency of a thick soup. When the chicken is half done, after about 20 minutes, put in the hard-boiled eggs. Cover and continue cooking until chicken is tender. The dish is ready when oil has risen to the top. Add black pepper and let sit until slightly cooled. Serve with injera.
P.S If you haven’t tasted Ethiopian food, you need to take a hard look at yourself and ask yourself what you’re doing with your life.

Enquanto a mãe confecciona Petecas na rua o menino brinca. Montes Claros-MG
Peteca - é um artefato esportivo de origem indígena-brasileiro que é tambem utilizado como brinquedo para crianças A Peteca é constituída de uma base que concentra a maior parte de seu peso, geralmente feito de borracha, e uma extensão mais leve, geralmente feita de penas naturais ou sintéticas, com o objetivo de dar equilibrio no ar quando arremessada. A Peteca era muito utilizada pelos índios como atividade esportiva para ganho de aquecimento corporal durante o inverno.

Tem dias que a gente se sente Como quem partiu ou morreu A gente estancou de repente Ou foi o mundo então que cresceu… A gente quer ter voz ativa No nosso destino mandar Mas eis que chega a roda viva E carrega o destino prá lá … Roda mundo, roda gigante Roda moinho, roda pião O tempo rodou num instante Nas voltas do meu coração… A gente vai contra a corrente Até não poder resistir Na volta do barco é que sente O quanto deixou de cumprir Faz tempo que a gente cultiva A mais linda roseira que há Mas eis que chega a roda viva E carrega a roseira prá lá… Roda mundo, roda gigante Roda moinho, roda pião O tempo rodou num instante Nas voltas do meu coração… A roda da saia mulata Não quer mais rodar não senhor Não posso fazer serenata A roda de samba acabou… A gente toma a iniciativa Viola na rua a cantar Mas eis que chega a roda viva E carrega a viola prá lá… Roda mundo, roda gigante Roda moinho, roda pião O tempo rodou num instante Nas voltas do meu coração… O samba, a viola, a roseira Que um dia a fogueira queimou Foi tudo ilusão passageira Que a brisa primeira levou… No peito a saudade cativa Faz força pro tempo parar Mas eis que chega a roda viva E carrega a saudade prá lá … Roda mundo, roda gigante Roda moinho, roda pião O tempo rodou num instante Nas voltas do meu coração…

You’re an artist,“ I say. "And I don’t think anyone but me truly understands what you mean by that. Not that you paint or you sculpt or you see the world in colors. You mean that you manipulate, that you express yourself on objects and use them to express you. You mean that when you choose to be the summer king, you choose to use your own body as a canvas that no one could ignore.
