#VOA. | Wadau wa mazingira wadadisi usalama wa nguo za mitumba kwa mazingira

Wanamazingira wadai kuwa nguo za mitumba zinachangia kuongeza tatizo la taka na baadhi ya watu wanahoji iwapo nchi za Magharibi na Asia zinazo safirisha mitumba kwenda nchi za Afrika wanatumia fursa hiyo kugeuza bara hilo ni jaa la kutupa uchafu.

8. Highlight a FFXIV blog with a really original OC.

And~

34. Highlight a FFXIV blog that does something impressive or different with a popular trope or character.

A FFXIV blog with a really original OC would definitely be @peddlestox-shinyrocks. Kwas is a completely unique OC, in terms of her backstory, her character and her outlook on the world. I'm never anything other than delighted to see a post about Kwas, in part because I know that it will be completely different to anything else I will see on my dash. If you've never come across @peddlestox-shinyrocks then I really recommend you check it out.

Whilst I follow an awful lot of FFXIV blogs which do impressive and different things with various ideas and characters (all of which are fantastic) none have achieved as much as @meepsthemiqo.

Somehow this blog manages to take a Asahi - a character that I hate on a deep and visceral level - and make him part of a romantic relationship in which I can't help being invested. I mean seriously, I don't think you can get more impressive than that.

Staff Pick of the Week!

Susan Estelle Kwas is a Milwaukee artist known for her vibrant illustrations and whimsical artist books. Her 2015 publication, A Collaborative Drawing Book is no exception as it invites readers into a visual conversation between Milwaukeean Fred Foss (1898) and Kwas (2015) over one hundred years in the making.

Kwas found Foss’ copy book in an antique shop and was so delighted by his graphite drawings that she decided to pair them with her own. Sometimes tucking characters into Foss’ scenery, other times superimposing them, Kwas’ colored pencil and watercolor contributions are nothing short of charming.  

Kwas rebound the book in montage sur onglets form (with pages sewn on stubs to release them from the confines of the gutter) in buffalo leather, preserving the original orientation of each page. The cover decoration was created by blind tooling inset leather strips and is complimented by marbled endpapers.

There is no denying that Bak Kwa (肉干) is very popular during Lunar New Year. Even as the prices soared to over S$100 per kilogram for the premium bbq meats, long queues are forming among the popular brands’ outlets around Singapore.

Traditionally Bak Kwa are made from pork but to cater to different religious restriction and cultures, they are now also available in beef, chicken, mutton and vegan versions. The slices of thin meat are grilled over charcoal to impart a smoker flavour to the meat.  Singaporean and Malaysian versions of bak kwa are also sweeter than their mainland China counterparts with many different variations having developed to suit local palates, such as chili bak kwa.

Did you know that Bak kwa can also be made into cookies like this Vegan Bak Kwa Cookies? Depending on your diet restriction, you can substitute the real grilled meat rather than using plant-based protein in the biscuit.
