  "STUFFED CAMEL" No. You did not read wrong: Camel! It turns out that Arab sheikhs, especially in the regions of Iran and Saudi Arabia, prepare a stuffed camel for their weddings, or the weddings of their closest relatives, mainly. The official name of this traditional Bedouin dish is not known, but many people refer to it as the Tarducken camel. The recipe for a stuffed camel seems like a bad joke, but the Guinness Book of Records defines it as the recipe for the largest dish in the world.  It is a traditional Bedouin dish, where a camel is stuffed with a lamb, the lamb stuffed with chickens, and the chickens stuffed with eggs and rice. All of this is grilled until cooked and then on the table. In the preparation: The camel is emptied by removing its internal organs and removing its hair. Inside it, a sheep or lamb is placed, whose organs have previously been removed, to be filled with 20 chickens also without organs. Chickens are stuffed with eggs with rice. In some places...

INTERESTING DATA ABOUT MUSIC.

-LISTEN TO MUSIC-               Hi! It is interesting how listening to a particular song can bring some memory to your mind, cause happiness, calm or some other emotion.  Here are some cool data about, listening to music. :) Listening to loud music often can cause us to drink beverages faster in less time. Now we understand why the music is so loud in the discos. The babies normally learn the meaning of emotions from music before the meaning of words. The music always can help in the reasoning processes and notably improves the motor areas of our brain. That is why it is believed that music arose to “help us all move together”. The way we conceive of the world is often influenced by the type of music we listen to. Sometimes the kind of music that we like at the age of 20 is usually the kind of music that we will like for the rest of our lives. When we listen to music, always dopamine is released in our brain, like when you take drugs, have sex or...

THE NEW YEAR´S TRADITION.

-NEW YEAR-      The arrival of the "New Year" is celebrated by most countries around the world. Each one celebrates it in their own way, in the company of family, partner, friends or simply alone.  Personally, I think it is not bad to celebrate it alone, but it is always better with some company. :)     I celebrate the New Year with a delicious dinner in the company of family and friends. Most of the years I usually go with my family nucleus to my grandmother's house (my mother's mother). I love going to my grandmother's house, because my whole family gathers there for New Years dinner, my uncles, my cousins, everyone. We all meet from 11:00 pm. As it is the reunion, we all welcome each other with a smile, a big hug or a handshake. Mom prepares a lot of delicious food to share with everyone, in the same way my uncles share something delicious that they have prepared for dinner. Everything is great, lots of food, good talks, lots of laughs, everything heal...

I currently reside in the “Colony Jacarandas”. There is a good atmosphere around here, quite quiet, to tell the truth, the whole neighborhood always treating each other with respect. In my neighborhood there is a preschool level called "José Vasconcelos", in which I studied. There is a soccer field known as “La Bomba” where I used to go running in the mornings. There is a Public Health Center. There is an elementary school called "Vicente Gonzalez" I never studied here, although it was close to home. There is a small playground, with swings and stuff. That small park is a very important place for me because there I am going ...
