How Long Should I Charge My Panasonic Lumix?

dely Fairy - Year III - Lesson 1 - Food and colors

The third-year students are neatly arranged in their positions.
Rosafragola sported a complement of colors of the rainbow.
"Welcome!" smiled at the class
"Today we will take a lesson only theoretical."
This class got a disappointed grunt, the teacher's smile expanded
"You will not be so boring! Today we talk about food and colors! Maybe you never thought but the eye wants its part and is a very important part . In the presentation of a dish or food apperenza is important and the colors are a very important part. I enjoy it a lot of dishes to choose the color that matches or face stand out the food must contain. In summer foods have loads colors (blue plums, red cherries, peaches and tomatoes, deep yellow apricots), and are rich in water and minerals that keep the tone and stand against the wiles of the heat. Conversely in spring green colors that help the change of season, causing the body made numb from the long winter.
Each color has its own characteristics. I have summarized on the blackboard. "
fact behind Rosafragola see a series of written, each of the color was.
Red is the color that stimulates the appetite and is the color preferred by people who are dynamic and courageous.
Too red But (wine?) can create anxiety and agitation. For example the table in red allows you to digest and assimilate food.
"Among the red fruits are strawberries, cherries, pink grapefruit also among the vegetables, the tomato is the most famous." comments on the hobbit.
The yellow-orange is the color preferred by gourmets and also transmits energy. Egg yolk and honey are the two cornerstones of this interpretation, supported by experiences and beliefs that are rooted in the mists of time.
"oranges, persimmons, lemons, pasta."
Green is the color of serenity and nature. If you eat too fast and too voracious green help to slow the rate of intake of food. It is also a refreshing color that transmits tranquility must be avoided when you need to load.
"Parsley, basil, kiwi, lettuce."
Blue and purple are the colors of the balance: the foods containing them are considered the best antidotes to emotional eating. Blueberries, plums and grapes give calm and are rich in valuable antioxidants.
Especially well suited for those who want to lose weight.
"The deep purple of blueberries, but also of eggplant, red grape and red onion."
The white symbol foods are rice and milk. Aids concentration, helps to detoxify and is a symbol of purity and elegance.
"Onions, garlic, some mushrooms."
Black eros stimulates and creates mystery symbol food is chocolate that has legions of fans but creates strong dependencies.
"Chocolate!"
After the explanation of the colors the lesson draws to a close.
"How task .." Rosafragola starts, and you hear a hum upset, lecture and also a task!
"... I wish it took me a short report on food and the colors of your home, their relationships and similarities with the characteristics of the houses. For those who want one more vote could propose a recipe. The next lecture in the employ try the recipes that you have proposed. Have a nice day! "

dely Fairy - Year II - Lesson 2 - Cake Autumn Fairy

The boys entered the second year of chatting in the classroom, and to sit at small kitchen stations.
Rosafragola was ready behind the desk, complete with yellow and orange in a very summery. Behind him appeared a recipe written on the blackboard: "Tart Autumn"
"Welcome!" Mona Lisa smiled to the class.
"I am here to teach and are Rosafragola Food Fairy. I think you have a basis of matter then I thought I would start with a recipe a bit 'more complicated! "
Some mutterings accompanied this statement.
rosafragola's smile became brighter:
" I'm sure you'll be great! Anyway, I'm here to help! Since the arrival of autumn I thought of a recipe with grapes. Now please pay attention when we look at the ingredients.
To make pasta, whose magical properties tell you later:
150 grams of wheat flour at night, this type of vine wheat harvest at night, after a full moon, so keep in their ears the moonbeams. The mills that grind the wheat also work only at night, to avoid their disappearance its properties. As noted it is particularly bright, white, if you happen to see it at night you will notice that shines in the dark. Its properties are then related to the night and the moon, then gives calmness and serenity. But if you use the flour black night, where the grain is collected in a new moon night, this property will be dark, such as to result in nightmares or insomnia, at worst terrifying hallucinations during the day. Of course, this last type of flour is unlawful. "Pleased
Rosafragola noticed that the students took notes diligently.
" 40 grams of drops of Persil (almonds) chopped almonds are chopped with a knife by the blade sharp and silver.
80 grams of pasta golden (butter) as we will notice that the color paler, since his property does not negate those of the flour.
60 grams blood beet (sugar) beets grow underground, in the heat of the womb of Mother Earth. The soul of beet has then the property to create heat and give a sense of security and then joy.
1 egg yolk, the egg is a symbol of life, and allies himself very well with the Seso of family warmth that gives the soul of beet.
lemon peel and a pinch of salt, which are only for flavor! "The boys wrote
hard.
" In conclusion it can be deduced from the ingredients used features that will have the pasta. You must remember, when cooking, not just mix the ingredients according to taste, but also according to their magical properties if you use ingredients that give euphoria, be careful not to turn dosarli euphoria in madness, and then will be balanced with ingredients which calm. And vice versa, not to ensure that the peace should result in apathy. I think this ability to add as many ingredients as close to my matter potions. "
" This paste has mainly sedative doses with one dose of lemon juice, egg yolk which mitigate the effect. Now prepare a cream, which present the same effects, we will then eventually a pie with a relaxing effect and create a sort of warmth between people, encouraging a quiet conversation. "
" For the cream we use 40 grams of flour night, 4 egg yolks, 4 tablespoons of blood sugar beet, and 3 dl dry white wine with characteristics of a quality not too euphoric. "
" For we must choose the last fruit to put on, as I mentioned before we use grapes, both white, with more soothing properties, is red, which gives a touch of liveliness to keep the conversation going! I will also propose adding the tears of ficus (figs), being very Doci, makes people more likely to confide in, the gentle "
" Making it happen. Create a mound of flour sifted well, just pass it through a sieve holes in thin, add the egg yolks and softened cream gold at room temperature, mix and add the drops of Persil, the soul of beet, lemon zest and salt. "performed with skills as she spoke operations, once obtained a golden dough began to turn to the class, making suggestions and helping students in difficulty.
"Now that we all have our pasta let rest in the cold room of your desk, the bottom left. You're supposed to rest half an hour, but we do not have time so we will use a small spell "mezzatempo" which serves to halve the time of preparation of a dough. Now try! "
The results were the most diverse exploding paste, and others that swelled to capacity, an even began to dance! Put
order Rosafragola passed to the explanation of the cream:
"Add the egg yolks with the soul of beet, and the spell" frothy "Bachetta turning clockwise, please, and always in a clockwise direction, the number of times you find it necessary, I think that three and a pinch is enough "
course, this time the results were among the most bizarre, but with a little 'practice of some help and all obtained a frothy cream.
"Now add the sifted flour and the wine that you'll barely warmed up, without bringing to a boil. Now put it on the stove at medium temperature stir and boil two minutes. "
" While the cream cools, take the dough and let the dough a bit 'big, that we put an a pan, take that with a diameter of 26, and bucherelliamola with a fork. It should be cooked in a hot oven 200 degrees for twenty minutes. But even in this case teach you a trick for fast cooking, you have to move the wand horizontally over the cake and say the spell "cuoci200per20"
And now for the classroom felt the smell of cooked pasta.
"Remember The first issue is the degree and the second the minute! Once cooked, put the cream and stuffed with grapes and figs, then cover with a little 'jelly. "
The final stages of preparation saw the teacher committed to treat burns and the smell of baked cakes currently joined the pulp burned.
In the end, some more than others, all had their cake.
"You can keep the cake and share it with your friends for a quiet chat, the task for the next time is to list at least five types including grapes and figs and their magical properties, would also be interesting, but it is optional, that the analizzaste magical properties that would take the cake with our grapes and figs that you will find. "

The classroom has a small dais with food on a table and kitchen accessories tailored to a hobbit, benches , spacious and equipped with all the tools for cooking, are arranged in a semicircle in front of her.

Lesson in Class I

Students came excited, Food Fairy knew only the name of good, then a practical matter, with little chatter, and where you eat!
Rosafragola was already behind the chair complete with a red and white apron and a charm of the same color of her hair.
He greeted each student with a smile and a nod.
Once everyone was settled he turned them
"Welcome, I am Rosafragola Risoallegro of Rompinoia. This year we will discuss the basics of Gastronomy, the main ingredients, the basis for cakes and breads, and then try some simple dish."
The teacher smiled, a warm smile, intense, with a gleam of the great big green eyes.
"Food is an essential element of our lives, gives us strength, energy, but also pleasure in doing it and taste it. I hope that you will learn from my lessons that a dish prepared with care and love is tasty to eat for those who have that for those who receive it. The food is synonymous with aggregation, the pleasure of tasting something with friends and loved ones is priceless, especially if tasty.
Today we start with a classic bread, very popular and goes well with salty but is also intriguing with the sweet. "
So saying, Rose turned to the blackboard that was behind, in a move the stick did appear a number of ingredients.

Bread of the sun (or Piadina Piada)

Farina 500 g cream 100 g snow (lard) milk lunar
250-280 g (normal one is fine)
2 teaspoons salt 1 package yeast

baking soda 1 pinch

Turning to the class continued Explanation:
"The bread of the sun is typically flat and round, with a golden color, features hence the name. E 'but it is originating in the Romagna in many variations around the world. Its magical properties are filling quickly the stomach, giving a sense of satiety. Also, if eaten in the company and facilitate dialogue and togetherness. That is, if we use the basic ingredients, of course using the most powerful ingredients you can obtain more specific. For example, if the Cream of snow obtained from the fat of dragon, then the bread of the sun will become a useful means of obtaining information. In fact, one may eat a bit 'is irresistible to answer the truth when asked a question, the effect lasts a few minutes after ingestion, and is not effective to extract secrets deeply immersed in the soul of a person. "
" Now we look at an ingredient at a time "so saying he pointed the flour, the boys took notes, and some , grabbed the bowl was on their desks.
"touch it" urged the teacher.
Timindamente kids started passing the flour between your fingers.
"It 's very fine, this meal is special," continued the explanation Rosafragola
"The corn is treated with fertilizers special magic, so it is a great, golden spike, the seeds give a particularly fine and nutritious meal.
Now take the cream of snow, usually is derived from pig fat, which animals are fed with the grain of the sun, the same of flour, amplifies its properties. Then we have the lunar
milk, milked in full moon nights, serves to mitigate the effect of the two ingredients above. The calm that give the ingredients used to make the lunar intoxicating effects of the ingredients more solar mitigated effect without leading to a drunk! Fifths were careful to put the right amount of milk! "In this sentence
saw many puzzled expressions.
" Even the salt is a solar element, since it is dried in the sun, very little time.
yeast and baking soda are used to make the recipe more tasty! "
Rosafragola waited until everyone had finished writing, then went on
"Let's talk about preparation: In the bowl of flour add salt, baking powder and baking soda, and mix well" as he spoke masterfully executed his instructions.
Then he began to turn to the class while the students perform this basic operation, some covering up to the ends of flour!
Back to the chair, Contin explanation.
"Now make a mound of flour, or rovesciatela on the table so that it forms a kind of mound. At the center, then formed a hole, it must be like a volcano." After showing the class how to do, took a turn for the counters by noting that her students were at any time whiter.
Returning to his post, he continued:
"Now carefully weigh the milk and cream snow, I recommend that the doses are right! Once you put them in the middle of the fountain."
When everyone had finished, those who believe not, Rosafragola concluded:
"Now mix well together, firmly but gently."
This was the most fun for kids who mess with the dough until you get a nice golden ball .
"Good!" cried the happy little hobbit, "now divide the dough into five or six smaller balls and then roll it out with the little rolling pin that you have available trying to give it a round shape." The loaves of
Sun Rosafragola were perfectly spherical and all uniformly high, those of the students they turn to the oval shapes or very odd.
The teacher had been following with interest all the work, giving little tips here and there, the students liked to see plastered all but met.
"Now I will teach you some very useful spell!"
So saying he drew his wand and pointed to the work table:
"Raschius" and all the dough stuck to the plan of work in wood vanished
"Piastribus" and the plan became a hot plate. Students Vullo
us a little 'practice and some evidence, who had become the meal plan, who did appear in a slab Ice! A moment of fear came when someone had set fire to the work!
the end everyone managed to have a nice hot plate in front.
"Now take your bread and place on plate, remember to forarli with a fork. After a few minutes turn it, do not cook them or become too dry!"
cooking operations continued without much incident, Rosafragola was provided with a series of ointments and medicines against cuts and burns to give it spark.
"Well, well," smiled a satisfied class bleached flour "I think that as a first lesson, we managed fine! You can bring your own bread. But before we say goodbye: my homework!"
The murmur of joy to the idea of \u200b\u200beating the bread of the sun turned into a rumble. On the blackboard appeared
other ingredients.
Green olives Black olives thirst
concentration
greaves gab
Rosemary tickle
Sunflower trotted.

"These ingredients can be combined with the bread of the sun, the next time I wish that you did a search on one of these ingredients, or that you unearthed one. Then I want the sun brought me a bread made with the ingredient chosen from you. The courtroom will always be available for two hours after the end of the course and there will be an elf to help you. If you need clarification, I was in my office. "

************ ****

for the task:
invented freely, then if the ingredient is covered by a Muggle maybe we can invent a new flatbread! ^ _ ^
There is no hurry for delivery, we do later this year.

Bricomagia for Everyone - ink

"Hello World!" exclaimed 'MagaGabe light entering the classroom
Bricomagia. The banks were more 'normal spacious desks, and each had
a slot at the top where they hold various tools:
scissors, chisels, pencils ... and there was obviously a small wand holder
in each bank.
"Hello," answered the students, many of which are still intent on the bench where
choose to wear.

Gabe expected everyone to be seated and attentive and I indicate 'the object that was already
' on this chair: "Today I will show you 'how to make a
ink," he said. A couple of Firstborn
opened his mouth perplexed.
"An inkwell," points out 'Gabe, "that never runs out and - perhaps -
can not' never be overthrown!"
the Firstborn now were surprised and almost frightened when they appeared before
a blob of nothing.

"Most of you already know 'this particular clay,"
start' the witch. "But for you who are here for the first time tell '
that this pasta e', as often happens in bricomagia, absorbing
your magical power to transform."
"Poloc, globit or molghik ... " whisper 'to himself' and if 'Angmar.
"Exactly!" Annual 'Gabe. "These are some of the names by which the magicians call this pasta
once transformed, but I like to call it ..." he paused and
fixed 'the Norwegian boy in his eyes, waiting.
Angmar felt 'a little' uncomfortable, now that everyone watched, but
answered without hesitation: "Ilfagru."
"Bravissimo! What is going to ..." Gabe fixed 'Alrune. The girl
open 'mouth but then closed it, shaking his head.
"The Fairy lump," Gabe said, still smiling.
Agito 'hand, as if all those words were not important. "The terracotta
able to anticipate your movements, reading
in your heart," said recovering explain. "He does well with the Muggles, but only the Wizards can
know it!" I put
The sorceress 'hands on the formless mass that had also appeared on
chair and I look like this' soft under his fingers. In reality 'the most'
careful (especially when seated in the front rows) noted that the terracotta
was hardly touched by the magician, who only touched the surface.
"When you think of the manipulated ilfragru shape you want him, but also the emotions that accompany
'the object when you'll use. In the case of the creation of an inkwell
emotion may 'be the one that gives you'
the noise of the pen that you dip, or the flow of ink while
write ... or what you feel when the words come out of the mind and
appear on the sheet of parchment ... "Gabe
Out 'hands by the form and the clay had already' taken a
rough shape that resembles a rectangular plate on which were placed
two cylinders, one narrow and high and a low squat.
The magician made the run look on the students. "As you can see the rough shape
is obtained rather easily, and this' first
stage of handling, when ilfagru absorbs your magic energy. "

The guys over the years had already 'begun to work,
giving form to their emotions, while some of the greatest wizards' little hesitant.
MagaGabe not stop' i first, it 'made haste to the latter.
"Once the clay you have ... we say ... known and has received
your magic, you can drive in the second phase of the manipulation. "
He went 'back to form on the desk and go back' to brush with the
fingertips." You must be very careful, because it 's at this stage
details that are created, the style you want to give your object ... "for some
secondo rimase in silenzio mentre un calamaio prendeva forma.
Il piatto stava prendendo la forma di una sezione di corteccia d'albero,
con le zigrinature tipiche di una corteccia antica e raggrinzita. L'alto
cilindro sembrava sempre di piu' una calla svasata ed elegante, mentre il
cilindro piu' basso assomigliava a un frutto, che poteva essere una mela o
un arancio. Gabe sorrise. "...a me piacciono le forme della natura, come
vedete, e il mio calamaio le ricordera', ma voi potete desiderare qualsiasi
altra forma. Se la vostra magia sara' incanalata a dovere, la terracotta vi
anticipera' nei desideri e vedrete crescere le forme che volete ancor prima
di manipolarle. "

In other class went down seconds of silence. Two students of the seventh year
had almost finished, while others dithered, unsure if some
begin to manipulate ilfagru or wait until the end of the explanation.
"Once you have finished handling
pass the spell." Gabe Out 'the ink from his hands full now (with
the' fruit 'which now seemed quite a pomegranate) and fixed' the
students. He saw that some of the Firstborn had not done anything yet and reassure them
'with a smile: "Do not worry, I'll wait' before you've finished
tell you the spell."

In the minutes after, all students worked (or attempted to
work) the clay magic, and Gabe redeployment 'sometimes
concepts based on who was not sure I understand.
When everyone had finished (though with varying results and degrees of perfection
ranging from objects so 'perfect to seem real
objects that only with great effort of imagination could be called
ink) MagaGabe back' to the chair by grabbing the wand from his sleeve.
"Stage bricomagica. The spell," he said. "Or rather, spells,
'cause now there are two. One for the ink, one for the base." Approach '
the tip of the wand to' bark 'and said aloud: "Te Tua Nox
Divide". The base of the inkwell
tremble 'and just then stood motionless.
"With this spell it is unbreakable and therefore the basis of ilfagru
ink, which should never be overturned ..." Gabe will face '
to the class with a smile. "I do not 'never turned out well, but I never knew if
or spell that depends on me and' wrong ... I mean, do not take it

good one hundred percent!" Many in the class laughed
fun.
"The one for the ink but 'works fine, and for years I did not need to reappear
ink, so be careful ..." Gabe point '
the wand on the' pomegranate 'and said: "Umquam Repleo.

"But .. there is no 'ink!" protest ' someone from the front row of pews, in the ink
seeing that Gabe was not appeared any liquid.
MagaGabe he turned 'back to the students, putting his wand. "I said
is not to 'buy back' the ink, but the first time you have to put him to
!"
The students began to experience spells on their ink ...

------------ --------- ---------

MagaGabe first lesson!
It seems to me just to have started with one of the things essential to a
magician where a dip ink pen to write on parchment. :-)
Tasks? Cerrrrto!
And not just one ... but rather 'two (or almost)!

The first, more 'simple, and 'to describe the ink that your character creates
.

The second and 'reserved for those who ... will want to do really
of bricolage in the coming months (perhaps using the simple DAS instead of the terracotta
): realizing the ink! And then put a picture on Yahoo (or
send it to me in private if you can not get into the group) with which you hold in your hand
your work!

The deadline of the task and 'on 11 January.
