Went bowling, not the worst game of my life so I was proud of myself.
Had a talk with a drunk Peruvian woman. It was fun to talk to her and take her advise in "love" matters.
Now the picture is a link t my friend's facebook who also keeps a 365 journal. So you might or might not be able to see the picture. I did not have my camera...

I actually forgot to take a picture... but I did cook Riz 3a Djej
The picture is from a website that has many good Lebanese and other Arabic recipes.
My recipe though is:
Cut 2 onions into 6 parts start by frying them a bit in a pan add chicken (4 big legs)
Add cinnamon powder preferably or powder and stick. Add up to 2-3 spoons. Add salt.
When the chicken starts to get red, add water until all the chicken is covered with water.
Let it boil and reduce the heat.
Soak 1.5 cups of water.
When the chicken is almost done, remove some of the chicken broth and use it to cook the rice.
You can add some pine and almonds. Fry them with a bit of oil. Make sure you keep on mixing them because they will get burnt really quickly. When they start turning yellow, put the fire off. Move the nuts on a napkin to soak out the oil.
Decorate the rice with the chicken then the nuts
Enjoy!

Peace dialogue with Dr. Geshe Dorjee (from Tibet) & Dr. Sidney Burris.
The talk was very interesting and we got to ask about ways to achieve inner peace and what peace means and how different people can contribute to peace the way they most feel comfortable with.

Another delicious recipe.
Start by warming up some oil/butter (2-3 spoons)
Add flour when the oil is warm enough until flour until it feels like a paste.
Remove from the fire and start adding milk while mixing until you have a creamy liquid sauce.
Add salt, pepper, ginger to taste.
In another pan, fry 5 ground garlic cloves add salt and dried ground min leaves (or basilica leaves).
You can add mushrooms.
Add salmon chunks.
Better use a wide pan and cook until the fish is almost ready.
Add the white sauce and mix well on very low fire for one minute.
Enjoy with angel hair pasta or tagliatelle.

I take the bus everyday. And today it was a nice sunny day and everyone in the bus seemed to be happy.
February 16th 2011
I was with my friend Alejandra from Uruguay* in the Union bus station and there were three policemen searching some people there. It was a bit scary for us but everyone else in the station was acting normal so we just decided to act normal too. I would have loved to take a picture of the policemen searching the guy stretched against the wall (yeah just like the movies) but I wasn't sure it's legal.
* Urugauay has the widest river in the world, Rio de la Plata becomes as wide as 220 kilometers (140 mi) and has the southern most capital in the American continent (Montevideo) and 3rd most southern in the world!

Enjoyed a bike ride around Fayetteville. It was so sunny, the weather was perfect. A lot of people were walking around Dickson street. I did not have my camera then (missed some pretty nice shots). This picture was taken later on when I was biking down Razorback road.

I watched "Exit through the gift shop" documentary and I would definitely recommend it.
It's impressive, funny, interesting, and you will get to meet MBW (Mr. Brainwash) most importantly and Banksy!
Check it out.
