Dry Clean Glider Cushion

Comics, chaise longue and you

One of the "cons" of the new floor is the distance between it and the job. The round trip, I take 100 minutes per day compared to 40 minutes before (also adding round trip), has been a big change. Trying to give a positive output fed up I metro daily, I decided that most of my reading the journeys take place over the home - library - home. So before going to work I can focus more on work, the kitchen and the master, and the weekends I focus on just fitted furniture, boxes undo, sort, and if there is time and inclination (I hope so!) , decorate.
But this past weekend elAbogado should concentrate because I had a macro trial, so it would be like a statue for me and taking advantage of this pause in the rush order, I decided that would throw out to the reading list "comiqueras" pending, and even would conduct a re-reading .. Comics elected ... those who follow:

- I agency every comics The Parejita we had in the library, including the latest news and devoured in a flash-plasma . For those who do not know to The couple, who are characters I will tell you created by cartoonist Manel Fontdevila for the magazine El Jueves . Mauricio and Emilia are and along the comic stage we can follow their boyfriends, coexistence, stability, approach to parenting, pregnancy and the child is here!. I love to follow in the weekly cartoon magazine, but always good to look back in the comics because it always happens to me some ... All the latest comics that have received are the first two volumes of the Guide Parents desperately inexperienced and I have to say I laughed a lot with them, and that I have no children ...

- I've always been curious about different life forms unknown to me, and when I'm introduced to some stranger try to ask about the typical things of your country , how they live, what they do, why ... I try not to harass, but I'm not always succeed (ahem), so always do some reading almost a year on other countries and civilizations. North Korea is a country that attracts me guess its secrecy and I love to travel there and see what that has to be surreal experience scheme Such totalitarian. I do not know if it sounds frivolous, but sociologically arouses my interest. Did you know that the country receives more aid? Until recently I did not know and I was surprised the data. Given the difficulty of access to the country, a great way to learn about the life of a foreigner in Pyongyang is read the comic Guy Delisle that reflects the period the author spent working in the capital. It's like watching a film in first person, is very well told and are shocked by the tragicomic that are most mundane details of North Korean reality that explains the author.

- If you traveled to Berlin, I guess you will have tasted currywurst, right? I dare say that this curry sausage is one of the gastronomic topicazos Germans, maybe even running on a parallel street to our tortilla chips or paella. When we traveled last summer to try to resist the German capital to currywurst offered in all stalls, but eventually fell into temptation and we did not eat almost nothing else during the trip. In the comic Invention Currywurst of Isabel Kreitz gives an alternative version of how this dish came, although we know the situation in Germany just after the Second World War. It is a very interesting comic based on the novel by Uwe Timm and if you come to Berlin as part of proving the sausage you want to know more, please visit the Deutsches Currywurst Museum .


If you have not had enough of such talk and you got here I can attest that I have been a great weekend for charging batteries, reading, chaise longue and a cup of tea. Is there anything better?
