Luis Buñuel, (1900-1983) Spanish filmmaker, who along with Salvador Dali, made a 16-minute short film, “The Andalusian Dog,” that was enthusiastically received by the French Surrealist movement. He met Salvador Dali and Federico Garcia Lorca in university, and their work continued to influence his own throughout his life. Click here to watch the film.

French Food Quote: Daily Food Quote, August 29, 2011

by Jonell Galloway

Wheat can only be packed away in the granary after being threshed, which is necessary to separate it from the chaff. And so it is that my soul cannot enter into Paradise without the martyr’s palm leaf, from which the butchers so violently ripped my body.–Jacques de Voragine, bishop of Genoa, when speaking of the martyrdom of St. Agatha

Le froment ne peut être serré au grenier qu’après avoir été fortement battu pour être séparé de sa balle ; de même mon âme ne peut entrer au paradis avec la palme du martyre que mon corps n’ait été déchiré avec violence par les bourreaux.–Jacues de Voragine, évêque de Gênes, en parlant du martyre de sainte Agathe

A Brief History of Creamed Corn and What to Pack in Your Hurricane Survival Kit

This season, our thoughts turn to hurricanes and the darker part of the year.  My own thoughts wander quite a bit, as a matter of course, and I find myself thinking about creamed corn, and specifically canned creamed corn, a staple of the American baby boomer childhood larder.

Creamed corn and a particular type of silver-labeled canned peas are tied to deep memories of preparations for stormy weather. We always had cans of corn, peas and baked beans, and kerosene and candles, in case of emergencies, storms, and power failures.
