no cork but lentils

not feeling well so i didn't go to Cork.

and i am so exhausted at the moment, even though i am not working that much...

it might be a lack of iron as i used to have so i decided to eat cereals every morning, eat red meat once every week, and also i am at the moment preparing a lentil soup...

(lentils pre cooked in 1litre of water

+sliced onions+tomatoes+garlic+cumin+paprika+parsley+salt and pepper all cooked in a frying pan

all ingreedients in a casserole for 30mn and add water).

yummy!

Dans un faitout, faites gonfler les lentilles dans 1 litre d'eau jusqu'à ce qu'elles soient encore un petit peu fermes. La sauce : Pelez et épépinez les tomates et coupez les en petits morceaux. Préparez la sauce en faisant revenir dans une sauteuse avec l'huile d'olives, l'oignon, les gousses d'ail écrasées, les tomates, persil, le cumin, paprika, sel et poivre. Faites revenir le tout pendant 10 minutes. Incorporer la sauce aux lentilles et laisser cuire jusqu'à obtention d'une sauce onctueuse.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

i'd really like to see that movie. it looks like a mix between a fairytale and a Tim Burton movie and all the actors are surely good.

you can see teasers here: http://www.lesinrocks.com/cine/cinema-article/article/lim...

 

casting

for the tudors

i went there and i knew before going that i probably won't be called back.

why? a piercing on my face and tattoos on my hand! it's not really gonna fit in the tudors settings!

even though on my form they wrote french in capital letters (as there is a big connection with france in the tudors), and they asked me if i could take off my piercing ( i don't mind as long as i'm working on the production for real and not just for a day) but then the tattoos.... well i guess i could put colour skin bandage on them, or they surely have good make up artists but at the casting it was: oh visible tattoos, a catastrophe!

anyway they are shooting from mid-june to mid-november.

YES!

VIVE L'ASM!

Toulouse-Clermont 9-19

Africa Day

such a sunny day, a big crowd (about 4000 thousands maybe more), a fantastic venue (the iveagh  gardens: stoned walls, trees, grass, fountains, waterfall...), the sun, great food, good music even there were more irish acts than african acts, and oh did i mention the sun?

i forgot my camera but here are pics of the site map, the program and moroccan pastries i bought.

Fontainebleau

i was in Paris for a few days and i went to Fontainebleau for the first time.

really nice, chic, rich town with loads of restaurants and bars that all seemed really good and cool.

we went to a small italian restaurant that was delicious.

and also the fantastic chateau in Fontainebleau that has 3 or 4 different parks and is right in the heart of town.

and of course the forest of Fontainebleau which is huge but can be dangerous when it gets dark as i heard that wild dogs are numerous and attack joggers or walkers...
