Isish Birthday Greetings

Poésie dans la cuisine / cooking Poetry


This ticket is based on a article entitled 'Choses de grand-mères "(El País 2.27.2011) écrit par Elvira Lindo. This text is inspired by an article entitled "Two of grandmothers" (El País 27.02.2011) Written by Elvira Lindo

I do not know how are, moreover, the kitchens of women of a certain age, here those of Encarna, valerian or Francisca are veritable bazaars, mining treasures that could be a thesis in sociology.

"I think the one that did not sit down one day in one of these kitchens can know the essence of the country." For all the ladies keep, recycle everything, literally. In a few square meters.

Children or grandchildren they offer a coffee maker, a series of tupperware, a device to crush the garlic? They warmly thank, pretend to have understood the functioning and, soon gone, they cover them with a crochet hat (for dust), and continue to use their old utensils. They are happy to cut through the middle of a Tetrabrik milk, use the bottom to store a ration of food and cover up as ... no need to smear a tupper. The little old coffee they put on the fire, of course, the handle is broken but they know how to use without burning, and that's just the right thing ... And, finally, nothing can replace their old wooden mortar impregnated with the taste of garlic!


I do not know how they are, in other parts, kitchens of older women, here's Encarna, Valerian or Francisca are true bazaars, gold mines that could be the subject of a sociology thesis. "I think he has not ever sat down to talk one of these stoves is not able to know the essence of the country. "

Because those ladies keep it all, I recycle everything, literally. In a few square meters.

Do your children or grandchildren they are presented with a coffee maker, a series of tupperware, a device to crush the garlic? Thank them with love, pretend to have understood the operation and leave nothing but them, cover them with a crocheted hat for powder, and continue using their old tools.

are happy to cut by half a milk carton and use the bottom to maintain a ration of food and the other a cover ... why mess a tupperware? The old coffee you put in the fire, it is true that the handle is broken, but they know how to use it without burning, and it is just as touching ... And finally, nothing can replace your old flavor impregnated mortar garlic!

In the reserve there are obviously jars in anticipation of preserved, but also a box of birthday candles mid-consumed, another with bottle caps, rubber bands recovered from the bunches of leeks, a plastic bag with the bread they make hard-to-breadcrumbs, pretty kitchen towel that are too beautiful to sully their téléphone portable à côté d'une liste des Numéros d'urgence, joins boîte avec encore des photos de tous, les annonces de mariage et de décès ... a bazaar dont elles sont vrai fierce.

In the pantry there is of course glass jars for canning, but also a box of birthday candles half worn, the other with bottle corks, rubber bands recovered from the bunches of leeks , a plastic bag with dry bread - they grate it, "pretty dishcloths too beautiful to spot them, their phone next to a list of emergency numbers, una caja con fotos de todos, y de bodas anuncios fallecimientos ... .. a verdadero del cual están orgullosas bazaar.

Elvira Lindo thought that this type of cuisine exist in the corners of the Mediterranean until she sees POETRY , beautiful movie Korean Lee Dong-Chan. "There were long since I saw a film that both m'émeuve. Western cities have met in recent years in restaurants Exotic and we thought, mistakenly, that through them we knew China, Korea , Vietnam and the Arab countries that show now if desires like ours. (...) The kitchen of the grandmother performer actress Yoon Jeong-Hee resembles the cuisine of our grandmothers "(...).

"She (the grandmother) does not know that the poetry of his life, more than in the leaves of the tree or in the breeze is in the kitchen, so powerfully his and ours also" (... ).


Elvira Lindo thought that this type of stove only existed in some corners of the Mediterranean until he saw POETRY, the wonderful Korean film Lee Chan-dong. "I had not seen a movie that moved me so. Western cities have been filling us in recent years of exotic restaurants and we thought, deluded, that they knew through China, Korea, Vietnam and Arab countries now show hopes so similar to ours. (...) The kitchen of the grandmother who plays the actress Yoon Jeong-Hee resembles the cuisine of our grandmothers "(...).

"She (the grandmother) does not know the poetry of his life rather than in the leaves of the tree or the wind is in the kitchen, so powerfully yours and ours also" (...)

Sans être encore très Agee or (encore?) grand-mère, j'ai pris cette photo ... dans ma cuisine!

Without being too old or still (yet?) Grandmother, I took that picture .... In my kitchen!
