Look At Yourself In The Mirror Quotes by James McBride, Yoko Ono, Stephen Chbosky, Brian Molko, Carmen Electra, Jada Pinkett Smith and many others.
If you’re going to cheat and take people’s history and you’re not writing the Bible, you ain’t really so great. But if you try to do it in a way that doesn’t hurt too many people, then you probably can get out of bed in the morning and look at yourself in the mirror.
Look at yourself in the mirror and don’t be afraid to notice how beautiful you are.
It’s kind of like when you look at yourself in the mirror and you say your name. And it gets to a point where none of it seems real.
When every day became a hangover and when you look at yourself in the mirror and go ‘I don’t like how you’re coming across to people.’ and when every day just started to feel the same. After the 50th shag, it doesn’t mean so much anymore.
My biggest downfall is my inner voice. Growing up as a dancer makes you very judgemental with yourself. You learn to look at yourself in the mirror and you criticise every line in your body. It’s never perfect. I grew up with this because I had ballet every day in school.
I’ve always told Will, ‘You can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be okay.’ Because at the end of the day, Will is his own man. I’m here as his partner, but he is his own man. He has to decide who he wants to be, and that’s not for me to do for him. Or vice versa.
There are some things more important than physical survival. You gotta be able to look at yourself in the mirror.
Be kind to yourself this evening. Buy something for yourself. Treat yourself to a meal. Look in the mirror and give yourself a smile
Let me give you a wonderful Zen practice. Wake up in the morning…look in the mirror, and laugh at yourself.
But my drive to win is so great … I just step over that line. … It’s very embarrassing, … one of the things you totally regret. So you look at yourself in the mirror and say, ‘I was stupid.’
I’ve always told Will, you can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be OK.
There are times when those eyes inside your brain stare back at you.
If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn’t part of ourselves doesn’t disturb us.
To succeed in life requires a total inability to do anything that makes you uncomfortable when you look at yourself in the mirror.
When you cheer for the erosion of Dzhokhar Tsarnaevs rights, you’re cheering for the erosion of your own.
I would like to be the first man in the gym business to throw out my scale. If you don’t like what you see in the mirror, what difference does it make what the scale says?
I’m almost reluctant to say it because it sounds superficial, but when you lose your hair, it just affects the way that you look at yourself in the mirror. You feel less feminine, pretty or desirable, and it’s not an easy thing to go through.

PRACTICAL TRAVELER; Bargains in College Dorms and Youth Hostels
By BETSY WADE
Published: June 4, 1989
IF you are a backpacking type, all the time or occasionally, and cost is more compelling than even such basic amenities as a private bathroom, there are at least two cheaper ways to travel than using minimum-service motels. These are staying either in hostels or in college dormitory rooms that come open in the summer, where time-warp prices such as $9 and $20 a night are easy to find.
People traveling with young children can make huge savings on the road using this sort of lodging, particularly if kitchens or kitchenettes are available. It is not always possible to house the family together in a private room but there are places where it can be done. The tradeoff is that planning and booking ahead are necessary: popular hostels and dormitories require reservations.
Bunks or single beds are standard. Men and women are normally placed in separate quarters. There may be a washbasin in the room, but the shower and toilet are almost inevitably down the hall. You may stay on a college campus that is peaceful and remote, or you may stay in a hostel in an urban area or historic district. If you pick a hostel, you may have to be up and out of your room quite early. But while you are there, you will be warm, safe and dry, and there may be some unexpected rewards. Lively exchanges of information about places to go or good inexpensive restaurants is one.
As to hostels, this discussion will consider only those linked to American Youth Hostels, which despite its name does not restrict the age of its members. The column will not take up public hostels, present or former hotels that operate independently as hostels, in that you pay to rent a bed rather than a room. These do not have American Youth Hostel licenses, and the standards vary from place to place. Even though some of these may be comfortable, some are not and it is impossible to give generalized advice.
Sometimes dormitories are listed by the A.Y.H. as ''supplemental accommodations,'' but most colleges that rent their vacant rooms do it independently or through associations. One of the nicest introductions to staying in dormitories comes from Canada, where 65 colleges and universities associated to promote use of their facilities, either by conferences or by individual travelers, in May, June, July and August.
The Canadian University and College Conference Officers Association, formed in the mid-70's, publishes a free membership roster of the universities that rent dormitory rooms or apartments, with names and phone numbers of people to contact. When asked by mail or phone, each school will send its own brochure. In addition, the Atlantic region of the association - New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island - publishes a joint brochure for its 15 schools, with description of locales, quarters and prices. Accommodations in Canada
St. Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, has a strong offering: single and twin rooms and apartments for four people with living-dining room, kitchen and bath as well as two bedrooms. At the late-May exchange rate for the Canadian dollar, these are approximate costs, breakfast included: a single room is $14.50 a night for a student, $18.75 for an adult; a twin room is $28 for students and $29 for adults. An apartment is $58.25 per night, whoever stays there. The rates were calculated at 83 cents to the Canadian dollar.
To receive the membership roster for all of Canada or the brochure for the Atlantic region, write or telephone Dana Clements, Conference Officer, St. Mary's University, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 3C3, Canada; 902-420-5485. The roster includes a list of the four regional directors for the program. Although only the Atlantic area has a regional brochure, the three other regional directors can be asked for fliers from several schools in their region.
A commercial paperback directory to campus lodgings is published under the title ''U.S. and Worldwide Travel Accommodations Guide'' with the notation on the cover that it includes information on 650 places offering overnight stays at $12 to $24 a person. The 76-page book is mostly in chart form, with sections listing campuses that will accept any traveler, those that will accept only people with educational concerns, which are generally outlined, and those that will house small groups and clubs.
The 1989 version is the ninth edition, but it appears unlikely that all the data are revised each year. Some of the Canadian prices appear out of line with the latest Canadian leaflet, but in any case this guide includes conventional warnings about price changes. There are pages of travel tips, plus information on organizations such as Elderhostel that provide classes and courses as well as accommodations. The book costs $11.95, plus $1.05 postage. Campus Travel Service, Box 5007, Laguna Beach, Calif. 92652; 714-497-3044.
Campus Holidays U.S.A., a tour operator in New Jersey, has a program that covers campus stays called Apple Accommodations. Joseph Kloza, the president, said that it had been marketed overseas but this year was being offered domestically too. A book of seven vouchers, each good for part or all of the cost of a night's stay, is $91, and a book of 21 costs $252. With the vouchers comes a directory of participating hotels and schools, with descriptions, phone numbers, travel directions and the price of any supplement. The 96-page directory covers the United States, Canada, the Bahamas and Britain. Campus Holidays, 242 Bellevue Avenue, Upper Montclair, N.J. 07043; 201-744-8724.

Ultimate Udon Bowl
- Udon noodles (1-3 servings roughly)
- 2 tsp coconut oil for sautéing
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 small onion
- 1 cup mushrooms (I used shiitake for this recipe)
- Zucchini squash (as much as you prefer)
- 2 cup leeks or bell pepper
- 2 Scallions
- Chopped, fresh basil
- 3 tsp coconut amino’s
- 2 cloves finely chopped garlic
- Flaked red pepper to taste
- Small bunch of chopped cilantro
- Optional: extra firm tofu (1 package) for added protein!
Cook the udon noodles, set aside in a bowl for later. If adding in tofu for protein, prepare as desired. I will either sauté with the first step in this recipe or (my preferred method) bake with vegan liquid teriyaki smoke and worcester in the oven at 350.
- Step one: in a large skillet, sauté the onion, garlic, and scallion, adding in the rest of the vegetables.
- Step two: toss the udon noodles with a little sesame oil and add to vegetables in the pan.
- Step three: add in the red pepper, cilantro, and fresh basil. Sauté for two more minutes, just to get all the seasoning and flavoring together.
- Step four: toss into your bowl and top with my peanut sauce recipe and siracha!


Price, Specs, And All You Will need To Know İn 2017
Two firms, Interflex and Samsung Electro-Mechanics, are reportedly boosting their spending on production of flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs) specifically for Apple's upcoming iPhones, including the iPhone 8,” which really should be the 1st iPhone with an OLED screen. A report from The Wall Street Journal claims that early troubles could have set the production timetable for the iPhone 8 back by about a month, major to a severely constrained supply of the leading-of-the-line phone when it launches, supposedly on September 22.
In 2018, Apple may add iris scanning capabilities to the iPhone, which could be utilized alongside of or in place of Touch ID. Like a fingerprint, each person's iris is one of a kind and so iris scanning can be utilized for identification purposes.
Facts sourced from Weibo has suggested the iPhone X will be accessible in 64, 256, and 512GB storage capacities supplied by S anDisk, Toshiba, Samsung, and SK Hynix It really is not clear how accurate this details is, nor if all colors will be obtainable in all capacities.
The most recent depictions we've seen showcase a telephone with only a tiny bezel protrusion on the prime of the phone, which is anticipated to host 3D facial recognition sensors - a important iphone 8 kılıfları addition given the removal of Touch ID. We've also observed dummy versions of the handset with a glass back (to let for wireless charging), metal sides, and a dual-camera.
In an investor note mostly discussing the "iPhone X" price, UBS analyst Steven Milunovich wrote in April he believes Apple will lower the value of the "iPhone 8" and "iPhone 8 Plus" by about $one hundred per model, compared to the prices of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.
Rumors initially pointed towards the use of a virtual Dwelling button, but later facts has recommended Apple will replace Home button functionality with touch-primarily based gestures, utilizing a series of swipes to bring up the Residence screen and the App Switcher.
Expect to spend a lot for the iPhone X. When Apple ordinarily keeps iPhone pricing the same from year to year, the enterprise bumped up the value on its iPhone 7 Plus by $20 more than the iPhone 6s Plus. Rumors have circulated that Apple is anticipated to contain the dual-lens camera with universal optical image stabilization in the 5.five-inch model.
It also new security features, including a do not disturb though driving mode and an Emergency SOS choice that will lock thieves out when its owner is in danger. Stainless steel is stated to be reserved for the more high priced models. Nonetheless, it really is anticipated that the far more special flagship model will be known as iPhone 8.
The standout features of iOS 11 are peer-to-peer Apple Spend and a redesigned Control Centre. Right, till you see the test done on Youtube exactly where the individual place the Samsung Flagship and the iPhone 7 in to buckets and lowered them to the bottom of some physique of water.
Even though the iPhone X will replace Touch ID with Face ID, the iPhone eight and the iPhone eight Plus, which function a style comparable to the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus, will continue to present a Touch ID Home button. It's possible, thus, that with a big incele update to the iPhone X, Apple could similarly charge a premium for its subsequent update.
4 predictions, some primarily based on leaks and other folks on Apple patents, give us an thought what the iPhone 8 fingerprint sensor replacement will appear like. The pictures, said to be sourced from a case manufacturer who received them from a glass supplier in China, depict what is stated to be the front and back panels of the iPhone X.
The delays have been place down to a range of things, like the phone's wireless charging capabilities (which may possibly only be enabled just after launch) and the more complex display. We went hands-on with an iPhone X dummy model and compared it with an iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and iPhone X to get a closer look on what the device will appear like in comparison with existing devices.
Apple's 3D sensing facial recognition method is advanced and can unlock an iPhone within a few hundred milliseconds. An iPhone case stated to be for the iPhone X has leaked, displaying off a design and style that's related to a lot of of the prototype 1 renderings.
Although we can not speak for the two former categories, we can say that this September will likely bring the largest changes to Apple's iPhone that we've noticed in years. A rendering of an iPhone X in a case , displaying off what is most likely to be the final design and style of the device.
That's why we would be disappointed if Apple merely trots out an iPhone 7s and 7s Plus in 2017 we hope the corporation is arranging at least 1 model with some huge alterations, such as that rumored 5.8-inch iPhone with the upgraded OLED screen. In mid-June, photographs posted to Reddit allegedly show the front and rear panels of the "iPhone X," as nicely as the "iPhone eight" variety.
That's probably why we preserve seeing multiple purported schematics for iPhone eight: the audacious version with Touch ID below the display, and the pragmatic version exactly where it's forced onto the back. It is unclear if this hexacore configuration will be out there just in the "iPhone X," or if it will also be incorporated in the "iPhone 8" smartphones.
It's said to sport a slight 2.5D curved edge, but nothing as well different from the iPhone 7 - and it will not be as sloped as Samsung's curved edges. Apple currently makes use of OLED displays in the Apple Watch. The iPhone X may well feature enhanced Siri functionality according to a rumor from DigiTimes.
Size wise, though the OLED iPhone will use a larger show panel mainly because it contains no bezels, it could be comparable in size to the 4.7-inch iPhone, so it's reasonable to picture the iPhone X as an iPhone 7 with a screen that spans from edge to edge.
Based on Apple's past naming conventions, we initially thought the new device could maybe be called the "iPhone eight" while the other two devices would be known as the "iPhone 7s"and the "iPhone 7s Plus," but a final-minute leak of the iOS 11 golden master version by Apple itself suggests all 3 will function unconventional names to reflect the caliber of the changes getting introduced in each one.
At least a single iPhone X model is anticipated to incorporate a versatile OLED show and Apple has signed a deal with Samsung to generate OLED displays for devices set to debut in 2017 Samsung is operating its display factories at full capacity as Apple ramps up supply ahead of the device's launch.
A Chinese web-site known as Storm reports that the virtual dwelling button will have the exact same haptic feedback motors used in the iPhone 7 to make the illusion of a House button, even if it is actually just a flat capacitive surface.
Clues in Apple's upcoming application suggest it will introduce a new strategy for directing customers The iPhone X could guide users around towns and cities applying augmented reality to superimpose directions onto the view via the camera.
Preserve in thoughts this could be correct, but that is primarily based on one of ten prototypes Apple is stated to be thinking of and we doubt the brand (which has under no circumstances had the highest-res screens on the market place) will attempt to outstrip rivals here.
In a July report from the Chinese-language Financial Everyday News about the "iPhone X" issues, mass production of the "iPhone eight" family has apparently however to begin, but the report did not mention if there are production difficulties for these particular devices.
The most likely branding is searching to be iPhone X, according to iOS 11 code - and that chimes nicely with a fresh leak out of Discover's web site, exactly where it listed the ‘iPhone X Edition' alongside the iPhone eight and 8 Plus. KGI analyst Ming-Chi Kuo's early August research note agreed with the September launch, writing that all three new iPhone models will arrive simultaneously on the similar date.
It features a cutout for a vertical dual-lens rear camera and due to the fact it has no cutout for Touch ID or other attributes, it suggests it is for a device with no rear-facing Touch ID button. According to information mentioned to be shared by a source at Apple supplier TSMC , the iPhone X will feature a 18.five:9 aspect ratio instead of a 16:9 aspect ratio.
A dummy model of the iPhone eight Plus is compared to the iPhone 7 Plus and an iPhone X dummy model in the video below. Although the spirit level-esque bumper ain't all that thrilling, it shows off the iPhone 8's practically fully bezel-much less show, full with an odd 'notch' at the top rated to accommodate the earpiece, front-facing camera and sensors.
With the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, Apple introduced a 256GB storage alternative, and it's feasible further increases could be included in the iPhone X. These characteristics are starting to seem in the now available iOS 11 beta , with Siri providing search suggestions inside the Safari browser.
The delays have been place down to a variety of elements, including the phone's wireless charging capabilities (which may only be enabled just after launch) and the extra complicated show. We went hands-on with an iPhone X dummy model and compared it with an iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and iPhone X to get a closer look on what the device will appear like in comparison with existing devices.
President Trump has previously stated he plans for Apple to develop its gadgets in the USA rather than China and that he would give "incentives" for the organization to do so. Original rumors suggested Apple was organizing to integrate Touch ID into the display of the device, but that functionality did not pan out due to production issues and other problems with the technologies.
The bottom line: you are going to see a new iPhone on Sept. Apple is expected to release the device alongside two other phones, called the iPhone eight and iPhone 8 Plus. Due to speculation that Apple would continue working with the "s" convention, initial reports on the rumors unofficially known as the devices the "iPhone 7s" and "iPhone 7s Plus," matching the naming scheme of the iPhone 7 generation.
An OLED display eliminates the need for the backlighting that is utilised in standard LCDs, which would allow Apple to cut down on the thickness and weight of the display used in the device. The iPhone screen now also wakes up when the telephone is picked up, so there is much less have to have to click a physical property button.


UD researchers look at creating “smart cities” for driverless cars
Driverless vehicles may be the wave of the future, but what if? What if a system somehow built into our roadway infrastructure could tell those vehicles whether to speed up or slow down as they merge onto Interstate 95, or where to turn off Kirkwood Highway to avoid a traffic jam a half-mile ahead?
An experiment now under way in the University of Delaware’s Mechanical Engineering department is trying to figure out whether such a system might work and, if so, how it might be put together.
It’s serious business, but the work that’s going on in Room 222 of Spencer Lab looks like a lot of fun.
In a 20-by-20-foot floor space, Associate Professor Andreas Malikopoulos and a diverse 30-member team composed of two post-doctoral research associates, 25 graduate and undergraduate UD students and three high schoolers, has created a Scale Smart City, a carefully laid out model that bears at least a passing resemblance to a community like Newark, right down to the large UD logo imprinted in the center of a traffic roundabout. Some 35 battery-powered, computer-guided model cars and trucks equipped with tiny cameras traverse the mini city’s roadways, speeding up or slowing down as they try to keep a safe distance behind the vehicles ahead, stopping at intersections, and taking care to turn left or right only when the path is clear.
“We’re replicating city driving, about 30 miles per hour, using algorithms and trying to even out traffic flows,” Malikopoulos says. Unlike testing by Tesla, Uber and others that are focusing on producing safe autonomous vehicles, this project is seeking a means to control an entire community of vehicles, using computers and sensors to enable vehicles to “communicate with each other so they can avoid conflict,” he says.
“We’re building a super-flexible testing platform,” says Ben Remer, a graduate student who worked on engineering vehicle interiors for Ford before coming to the university last September.
“It’s an eye-catching project … and it’s kind of cool to jump into the future,” Remer says.
More importantly, he’s enthused by the potential magnitude of the project. “Working on an autonomous vehicle improves safety only,” he says. Studying the interconnected behavior of multiple vehicles raises the stakes – opening new paths to increasing energy efficiency while reducing both pollution and transportation times.
The testing must begin at the micro level – hence, the Smart Cities project. But the next step, advancing to the use of real vehicles in a controlled environment, perhaps on the university’s developing STAR Campus, might be only a year or so away, Malikopoulos says.
Those details remain to be worked out, but the university is already in talks with the Delaware Department of Transportation on how to move the project forward, he says.
Watching the model cars maneuver on the scaled-down roadway gives a sense of what is possible, but team members know it will take much more to make it a reality.
Before putting a system like this on the road, “industry standards need to be developed,” Remer says. And, after that, some sort of infrastructure would have to be installed, and that might well require an extensive network of computerized sensors and monitors plus some form of electronic communicator that could send messages to all the vehicles linked to the network.
“We’re at the bleeding edge. We’re not at the cutting edge yet. We’re still trying to understand the lay of the land,” says Dimitris Assanis, one of the two postdoctoral students working on the project. “Looking 20 or 30 years down the road, can we eliminate traffic light and stop signs? The beauty of this research [in a university setting] is that we don’t have to solve the problem in two or three years because we have to answer to our [corporate] investors.”
As the son of the university’s president, touting the benefits of campus research comes easily for Dimitris Assanis. And this subject is close to his family’s heart as well, as UD President Dennis Assanis, in one of his former roles, was director of automotive laboratories at the University of Michigan, which happens to be where Malikopoulos earned his master’s and doctoral degrees.
In his undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Michigan, Dimitris Assanis focused on power and propulsion issues, studying ways of decreasing energy consumption and reducing harmful emissions in motor vehicles. In the Smart Cities project, he is learning about another tool to help achieve those objectives. “Instead of improving the efficiency of an engine, or of a hydrogen fuel cell, we can change the behavior of the driver and create additional efficiency outside the actual vehicle.”
While Assanis’s background naturally leads him to focus on fuel consumption and emissions, others involved in the project are just as happy to talk about how development of the Smart Cities concept can help reduce commuting times – not only in Delaware but around the world.
UD junior Yiming Wan, who spent his early years in a near Shanghai, China, with a population of more than 24 million, laments the traffic jams his mother encounters when she drives to work. “In any city in China, traffic jams can occur any time of day. For my mom, it can take an hour and 30 minutes,” he says.
Behdad Chalaki, a first-year doctoral student who did his undergraduate work at the University of Tehran, says traffic congestion in Iran’s largest city, population 8.8 million, can be just as bad as Wan says it is in China.
“You can easily get caught in traffic for an hour and a half,” he says.
“But, if you don’t get stuck in traffic, you will have a better day. If you start your day in traffic, you get frustrated,” he says.
UD junior Becky Williams, a graduate of Mount Pleasant High School in suburban Wilmington, acknowledges that development of Smart Cities’ concepts might help conquer her aversion to driving in congested urban areas. And she believes that the development of autonomous vehicles and computer-assisted infrastructure might relieve some of the tedium and reduce some of the dangers of traveling long distances at high speeds on interstate highways.
Working on the project has required all the participants to broaden their skillsets. Williams, for example, said she had previously done a lot of work with composite materials, but here she has learned more about design, electronics, robotic and controls.
Day in and day out, the team tests new approaches.
“We bought circuit boards off the shelf. We merged a couple of different circuit boards, made a custom chassis,” Assanis says.
Wan was given the responsibility of soldering the circuit boards together, one to run the car, the other to receive instructions from the computer, and to hook them up to a tiny battery and voltage regulator. “I’m the hardware guy,” he says. “If something goes wrong [with a car], they need me.”
Creating new algorithms, sending new sets of instructions to the vehicles, watching how they respond, it’s all part of the project. “We track energy usage, the level of the batteries, power levels, the time it take to go through the intersections” and much more, Assanis says.
Many questions remain to be resolved, not the least of which are identifying the most effective infrastructure system and determining the best means for transmitting information to vehicles operating within the system. Underground sensors and overhead cameras are two possibilities for the infrastructure. Another possible component, not yet tested, is a drone (or drones) that could hover over the Smart City, with its omnidirectional camera capability sensing bottlenecks and transmitting signals to vehicles on the road.
The search for answers can be challenging, but hardly tiring.
“There are so many variables,” Williams says.
“If we can improve the technology, the sensors, we can do all this stuff in the real world,” Chalaki says. “This is the future.”

Hungary Holding Up EU’s Russian Oil Embargo
Powers with sea access propose landlocked Hungary gives up Russian pipeline oil — and becomes dependant on their ports
Source: The Wall Street Journal
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen failed to reach agreement with Hungary on Monday to secure the country’s backing for an oil embargo on Russia, setting back hopes of a quick deal on Brussels’ energy sanctions proposals.
Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria and Croatia are also making their acceptance of an oil embargo conditional on assistance from Brussels.
EU officials and diplomats say they remain confident a deal to phase in a ban on Russian oil will eventually come together but hopes of wrapping it up quickly are receding.
The Commission, with the backing of other member states, is prepared to offer Hungary more time to stop importing Russian oil, and guarantees and assistance to ensure Hungary can find energy alternatives.
After Monday’s discussions, Hungary’s foreign minister said his government can’t support the EU’s oil embargo, the centerpiece of the bloc’s latest sanctions package against Russia, “as long as it does not provide a solution for Hungary’s concerns,” according to a government spokesman.
An EU official who participated in Monday’s discussions said Mr. Orban and his team neither explicitly promised to join the sanctions push if Hungary’s conditions were met nor ruled it out. The official said the talks opened a path forward through Hungary’s concerns but said the timeline for agreeing on the sixth sanctions package remained unclear.
Hungary receives around two-thirds of its oil from Russia, mainly through the Druzhba pipeline. Hungarian officials have raised concerns about refitting refineries, storage and the infrastructure needed to switch away from Russian crude oil, EU officials say.
Last Tuesday, the European Commission circulated a sixth sanctions package against Russia over its Ukraine invasion. The package proposed that EU member states stop importing Russian crude oil in six months and stop importing refined oil products by year-end. The sanctions need the backing of all 27 member states.
The commission offered Hungary and Slovakia 20 months to stop importing Russian oil. Those countries say that extension isn’t enough time. In a revised proposal Friday, the commission said it could give the two countries until the end of 2024.
The commission is also offering the Czech Republic two years to wean itself off Russian oil. Bulgaria and Croatia are also both seeking EU assistance or more time.
Complicating the talks with Hungary are years of tension between Mr. Orban, who recently won re-election, and EU authorities. Mr. Orban has maintained close ties with Moscow and has refused to allow the supply of western arms to go to Ukraine through his country, leading to friction with President Volodymyr Zelensky’s government.
The longtime Hungarian leader pitched his re-election campaign around a message that he would keep Hungary out of the war between Russia and Ukraine and protect Hungarians from bearing the costs of the war.
The EU is withholding billions of euros in coronavirus-recovery money over its concerns about the rule of law in Hungary. The commission last month started a separate procedure that could result in future EU budget funds for Hungary being frozen as well.
Mr. Orban’s government said those moves are politically motivated and designed to force the country to fall in line with the EU on social issues such as immigration and gay rights.
Source: The Guardian
Orbán said last week that “in its present form” the proposal was “tantamount to dropping a nuclear bomb on the Hungarian economy”. The Hungarian foreign minister, Péter Szijjártó, repeated the phrase before Monday’s talks with Von der Leyen, according to Orbán’s international spokesperson, Zoltán Kovács.
Hungary says it needs five years and hundreds of billions of forints to convert its Százhalombatta refinery near Budapest, which can only take Russian oil. Hungarian officials say they could get oil from Croatia, but this would require their southern neighbour to boost its capacity.
The EU’s proposal seeks to ban crude oil over the next six months and refined fuels by early January. The EU had offered Hungary and Slovakia until the end of 2024 to comply with the sanctions and the Czech Republic until June of the same year since they are heavily reliant on Russian crude.
The exemption failed to convince Hungary, which continued to block the plan on Sunday over the oil ban as well as how to fund the transition away from Russian energy, the people said.

The Ladybower Reservoir is a well-known tourist spot with those familiar with the Peak District.
The stunning man-made lake was built in the Upper Derwent Valley between 1935 and 1943 and it was the largest in the UK at the time.
What many don't know is that a hidden world can be found beneath its surface.
At the bottom of the reservoir lies two abandoned villages, reports Manchester Evening News.
Derwent and Ashopton were deliberately flooded in the early 1940s to make room for the dam. The villages later became completely lost to the dark water.
The decision, imposed by the Derwent Valley Water Board, came much to the outrage of locals. Even though villagers protested against the decision, they were relocated and rehoused in Bamford.
Bodies were exhumed from graveyards and a local church held its final service.
Elsewhere, a storekeeper closed his shop for the last time and children waved goodbye to their schoolhouse friends.
The buildings that once made up these thriving villages were reduced to nothing but rubble.
As water filled the dam, the ruins disappeared beneath millions of gallons of water. All that remained of the villages was an untouched spire from the church of St John and St James - kept as a memorial for Derwent villagers.
For over a year it poked out of the water, posing as a haunting reminder of what once was there. Eventually, the spire was demolished and vanished beneath the water with no memory left of the lost villages.
That was until heatwaves hit the country in 1976, 1989, 1995, 2003 and 2018.
Low water levels caused by the heatwaves meant the villages emerged again in a rare occurrence, offering visitors a glimpse into the past.
During dry spells, visitors can walk around the village community and still find signs of life beneath the water - including cottage doorways, walls, hearths, pump houses and bricks. The only monument to have been left unscathed during Derwent's demolition was its 17th-century packhorse.
The village had a preservation order which stopped it from being destroyed.
To comply with the order, the bridge was moved from its original location from Derwent Hall to Howden Reservoir near the Slippery Stones. It is now a scheduled monument and the only structure to have survived the destruction.
Despite the village being drowned, a civil parish remains and a few houses can be found above the waterline.
In 2011, the population remained less than 100.
Unlike the Derwent remains, Ashopton will never re-emerge from the water again due to a silt that has already covered its buildings. The structures now lost forever include The Ashopton Inn, a popular coaching inn which offered food, drink and rest for travellers.
The lost structures include The Ashopton Inn - a popular coaching inn which served food and drink, as well as offering rest for travellers. The busy village which was once located on a main road between Sheffield and Glossop also had a post office, general store, a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel and a garage.
The only reminder of the village is the Ashopton Viaduct, which carries the A57 across the mouth of the Derwent Valley.
Its former industry was largely based on farming and an annual wool fair, which was held in the village every July.

- add 1/2-3/4 cup white wine
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine rosemary, minced garlic, salt and pepper.
- Prepare the pork loin by making slits big enough to stuff the rosemary/garlic mixture into.
- Using a shallow roasting pan (with or without a rack) or even a glass baking dish.
- I then drizzle the olive oil all over the pork loin, sprinkling and rubbing any remaining mixture on top.
- Then I add about 1/2 cup water to the bottom of the roasting pan, to prevent any scorching.
- Turn and baste pork loin occasionally with liquids in the bottom of pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 2 - 2 1/2 hours. (Depending on pork loin size, make sure to cook 25-30 minutes for each pound.).
- Remove pork loin to serving plate. Then you can add 1/2-3/4 cup white wine in pan to loosen and scrape the brown bits of leftover fat and juices. Drizzle over pork loin if you choose or use as au jus for dipping.


Indian consumers spend more on food than any other country.
They spend Rs. 10.7 trillion on food every year, and a staggering 2.2 billion of this amount is consumed in the form of food.
This is a huge sum of money for a country of just 2.3 billion people.
This makes food, and its preparation, one of the most important areas for food companies.
The cost of preparing food in India is also a huge concern for the industry.
Most of this is spent on food storage, and the government has made a concerted effort to increase the storage space available to consumers.
However, this has also caused a rise in prices.
According to the industry body, the Centre is the most expensive market in the world, with the average price of a kilo of produce, which is normally priced at Rs. 6,000 per kg, going up to Rs. 8,000-8,500 per kg in 2019.
The biggest impact is the increase in the cost of storage space.
As the market for fresh produce is increasing, the price of storage is also increasing.
The Centre has set up an auction to allow farmers to store their produce in new and recycled containers at a reasonable price, and prices have increased significantly over the past few years.
The government has also launched a scheme to sell produce at retail at competitive prices, in a bid to boost domestic consumption.
It has also increased subsidies for small and medium-sized producers, as well as increasing subsidies to farmers in the process.
These measures have caused food companies to raise prices to match the increasing costs.
However this is not the only reason for the increase.
In January 2018, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised the prices of food to prevent food inflation.
The move was done in the name of preventing inflation and keeping prices stable.
However there is a major downside to this policy, which has been attributed to rising prices.
It will affect the amount of cash people have available to spend.
A study by the Centre for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) estimated that if food prices remained constant at the current rate of inflation, the cash that people have in their accounts would drop from Rs. 22,000 crore to Rs 22,500 crore.
A similar effect will be seen if food inflation increases as a result of this move.
For this reason, the RBI has announced a “countercyclical” plan, in which the bank will keep its currency fixed at the exchange rate that was in effect in January 2018.
The aim is to ensure that food prices are in the market to reflect the current inflation rate, which means that the RBI is not directly affected by any change in food prices.
This policy is also intended to prevent the market from being flooded with cheap food, which will then be sold at higher prices.
However these measures may be good for the economy as they will encourage food producers to increase their output and improve food prices, but they are also likely to cause some inconvenience for the consumers.

13 Benefits of drinking water from copper water bottles.
Welcome to the world of copper water bottles. The latest health craze, with information on why you should buy copper bottles and the importance of this essential metal/trace mineral in our daily lives. Copper utensils have traditionally been used in India for cooking, food storage, and water. Such brilliant red to pale pinkish-orange metal is a good heat and electrical conductor. Moreover, it is widely utilized in building materials, jewellery, beautiful art, and even utensils.
Copper is one of the few natural metals that is widely used and has strong thermal and electrical conductivity. It is produced in large stars and then collected from mines. The Oligo dynamic effect occurs when water is held in a copper vessel or bottle for an additional eight hours. Copper's antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, and antioxidant effects are well-known.
Aids the Thyroid Gland's Functioning
Copper is the most common trait among thyroid sufferers, according to doctors. Copper balances the thyroid gland's discrepancies, i.e., it energizes the thyroid gland so that it can function perfectly. But it also protects the thyroid gland from the harmful effects of too much secretion. Thyroid gland malfunction can be caused by a lack of copper or too much copper, resulting in hyper or hypothyroidism in patients.
Copper aids in the digestion of food to produce haemoglobin. Along with the body's absorption of iron, which is deficient in anaemia. Copper deficiency in humans can cause unusual haematological problems, including low white blood cell counts.
Protects against Cancer
Cancer has sadly become too usual. This deadly disease has been a persistent challenge to the medical community for many years. Water held in a copper container or vessel is high in antioxidants, which can help fight free radicals that cause tumours and stimulate cancer cells. If you spend a lot of time outside in the sun, bring a copper bottle with you since the water in it generates melanin. It is a natural skin pigment that protects skin from dangerous ultraviolet rays.
Increases the amount of haemoglobin
The protein molecule haemoglobin found in red blood cells is vitally essential for physiological function. Anaemia, which causes severe fatigue, brittle bones, and disorientation, among other chronic illnesses, can be caused by a lack of haemoglobin. Copper water, according to studies, aids in the breakdown of food for the formation of haemoglobin and improves iron absorption in the body. Copper is an essential trace mineral that the body needs at the proper levels to prevent certain haematological disorders.
Helps in treating arthritis
Copper's bone-strengthening qualities help to treat arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Inflamed joints benefit from its anti-inflammatory effects.
Defends Against Infections
Copper, although being a metal, has natural antibacterial properties. When this metal comes into contact with hazardous bacteria on surfaces or in water, it instantly kills them. For thorough filtration and eradication of numerous germs such as E.coli, Cholera bacillus, and others, doctors recommend drinking water that has been stored in a copper bottle for at least 8 hours.
Beneficial for Heart.
Copper helps to ensure adequate blood circulation by allowing blood vessels to dilate. It also removes plaque build-up in the vessels, resulting in improved heart health.
Copper, whether in the form of a metal or a mineral, is naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial. While washing a wound or injury with copper water, cleans the affected area. It also helps the skin regenerate and heal faster.
Helps with digestion
Copper-based medication was prescribed in ancient Roman writings to destroy germs in the stomach. Drinking "Tamra Jal" cleanses and detoxifies the stomach, according to Ayurveda. Copper also contains qualities that help with digestion by stimulating peristalsis (the rhythmic expansion and contraction of the stomach lining), reducing inflammation, and improving digestion. Copper can aid with stomach ulcers, indigestion, and stomach infections.
Hypertension is controlled
Copper, a critical trace metal, helps keep blood pressure in check and regulates the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in the blood. However, if a person has had a copper deficit throughout childhood, the odds of hypotension or low blood pressure are considered more. A rapid copper deficit in adulthood, on the other hand, can cause hypertension and high blood pressure.
Helps in Weight Loss
Copper aids weight loss by assisting in the dissolution of excess fat deposits in the human body. Even when an individual is sleeping, copper keeps the body in a fat-burning state. However, it does not mean that too much copper will burn more fat. Too much copper can damage the human body.
Enhances mental performance
The brain and the rest of the body interact via electrical impulses. Copper facilitates cell communication by carrying out these impulses, allowing the brain to function more efficiently.
Copper has anticonvulsant properties, making it a useful seizure preventative. Copper is also an antioxidant. Thus, a deficit would allow oxidants to act more quickly and efficiently, increasing the risk of a stroke.

Stress is stealing away your life, even if you don’t realize it.
You see, stress, fatigue and chronic pain manifest physically as increased tension
and tightness in the body, particularly in the large muscles of the torso, such as
chest, shoulders and back.
This is why neck and back pain and headaches are so prevalent today.
Stress can also cause your breathing to weaken and become more shallow. When
you take in less oxygen, your system doesn’t work to capacity. You feel physically
fatigued and mentally foggy and fuzzy.
These reactions to stress put into motion a cascade of hormonal and neuromuscular
changes that can have dire consequences for even the hardiest of us.
Your posture also changes when you’re under stress. You turn in your shoulders and
hunch forward. You may notice that you cross your arms more frequently.
These are all signs of the protective impulse…. of your body collapsing in on itself in
an effort to protect you physically from more abuse.
Problem is, the tightness and tension in your muscles, along with the stressed, hunched
posture, create huge imbalances and overloads on your spine.
The spine is the foundation of your body and one of its critical centers of energy.
Sitting, standing and walking compress the spine to varying degrees. The high proportion
of time many of us spend sitting is particularly tough on our backs.
After years of sitting at desks, in meetings, on the couch, or on airplanes, the spine loses
This in turn affects the entire nervous system, causing decreased energy, backaches,
headaches, neck and shoulder tightness….even moodiness, irritability, and the inability
to concentrate or focus.
The secret is to free the tension and tightness from your entire torso area, so that the
breathing spaces are wide open and free, and the spine is extended and lengthened.
Open breathing spaces mean full, complete breathing. In turn, this expands your lungs’
capacity to infuse larger amounts of oxygen into your body, and more effectively remove
wastes and toxins from your system.
Elongating and loosening the spine helps free up vital nerve force and energy, as well as
The combination of the two is a powerhouse!
It leaves you with a loose, relaxed, energized feeling. It not only invigorates — it’s a major
pathway to physical health and wellbeing.
You may think it difficult to achieve this combination of opening, freeing, and releasing.
You may think you have to pay big bucks to visit a chiropractor or massage therapist
Well, it’s not difficult at all. Nor is it expensive.
For starters, I highly recommend taking several short stretch breaks throughout the day,
especially if you are spending long periods of time sitting in meetings or clacking
away at the computer.
Get up, stretch up, stretch to the sides, lean forward and down, rotate your
shoulders. All loose, relaxed movements. Synch your movements to your breathing for
even more relaxation and re-energizing.
There are even some stretches you can do while sitting in your chair – if you’re
too lazy to stand up.
If you’re interested in really loosening, relaxing and re-energizing, you can easily
discover how with just a few minutes of listening to the Secret Power of Dynamic Energy
Exercise Course, Volume 1: Invigorate and Rejuvenate.
The course consists of two series of seven exercises. The first series focuses on dynamic
breathing coordinated with easy, flowing movements.
The second series helps stretch, relax and rejuvenate your entire torso area, with special
emphasis on the spine and back.
These amazing exercises stimulate, strengthen, and rejuvenate you.
They help you instantaneously relax AND improve your energy levels. You’ll feel more in
control, rather than at the whim of the latest crisis. After doing the exercises for just a few
days, any back or neck pain you have been experiencing will be history.
The Secret Power of Dynamic Energy Exercise Course provides you with a quick, easy,
enjoyable way to rejuvenate and protect your foundation. I’d love for you to give it a try.
To learn more about this incredible course, head on over to the Best Breathing Exercises website.
You Can Do It!

Anyway, one blog that I read - although not as often as I should - is the Hootsuite Social Blog. Hootsuite, if you're not familiar, offer a service for social media folk to schedule tweets, manage social media searches, and lots of other stuff. I've used Hootsuite for scheduling tweets for absolutely years, and it's a handy tool, mainly let down by my erratic tweet scheduling.
But on their blog they give great advice in the form of interesting blogs for anyone wanting to boost their social media presence.
One of their blogs which I recently read talked about lessons from 15 of their best performing tweets, which gives some examples of good tweets they've done. And one of the key things is including photos in tweets, so that they stand out better in Twitter timelines.
So with the latest set of scheduled tweets I've included photos, and it'll be interesting to see how (if) it makes any difference to how much the tweets are noticed.
And of course, you need a good photo on any blog.

I hadn’t bought a new bikini in seven years. Not for lack of trying. I couldn't find one that fit right. But I figured that I only swam a couple times a year. And even though I was uncomfortable while on the water, always tugging on the suits or moving slower to prevent wardrobe malfunctions, I thought it was OK. But I didn’t realize how much summer fun I was missing out on.
Surprise party! Unveiling all the new feels like being shot out of a confetti canon, in a cloud of color and newness. Like every season, this one has been 1+ year in the making, starting with dreaming and drawing and coming to completion with finished garments we can’t wait to get on our bodies.

The local nonprofit Malama Na Makua A Keiki, or Malama Family Recovery Center, is a Maui-based gender-specific treatment center. They provide caring, holistic substance abuse treatment to women and children with the goal of empowering families to live safe, independent and healthy lives. They are the only agency on the island where clients can have children living with them during the recovery process.
Their BabySAFE (Substance Abuse Free Environment) Program focuses on pregnant and parenting women. BabySAFE helps women get clean so they can give birth to healthy babies.
Services are offered both through their outpatient and residential programs and include individual, group and family counseling as well as one-on-one therapy. Within a healing family setting women can explore any and all underlying issues and be open and honest about what they are going through. They provide free childcare for all clients as well as transportation to and from treatment sessions for those in the outpatient program. In addition, their caring staff helps clients access early prenatal care services, whether it is finding a doctor, getting to appointments or setting up pre-delivery tours at the hospital. They educate about the consequences of using while pregnant and provide parenting tips and other information related to topics such as stress management, dealing with depression, nutrition, physical activity and contraception following pregnancy.
The BabySAFE Program is also for women who have already given birth. Staff members work with new mothers on healthy parenting techniques and teach women how to recognize healthy child development. If a client’s baby tests positive for drugs and/or alcohol, they will educate the mother about what to expect as the infant grows older and what intervention services are available in the community to minimize the health effects. They also help women who are trying to regain or retain custody of their children. They will arrange and provide transportation to supervised visits, during which they will offer support, advice and guidance. All of these activities can be done while the client, AND THEIR CHILD, lives in their residential or sober living facilities.
Women who are struggling with addiction and want to get better are not alone. Malama Na Makua A keiki will physically go to wherever their clients are most comfortable and their BabySAFE staff can provide services one-on-one. If you or someone you know is pregnant and needs help, please call the BabySAFE Program at 808-877-7117 and ask to speak to Megan Morrow, or email email@example.com
Making that first step might be the most difficult, but they are always there for those who need help, support and most importantly, someone to listen.

Are you looking for a fun and adorable dessert idea for your next themed party or event? If so, learning how to decorate a ladybug cake is the perfect way to add a touch of whimsy and charm to any celebration. Ladybug cakes are not only visually appealing but also bring joy and excitement to gatherings, making them a popular choice for birthday parties, baby showers, and other special occasions.
The appeal of ladybug cakes lies in their vibrant colors, unique shape, and delightful design. It’s no wonder that these cute insect-themed desserts are a favorite among both children and adults alike. Whether you’re an experienced baker or just starting out, creating a ladybug cake is a wonderful way to showcase your creativity and impress your guests with a show-stopping dessert.
In this article, we will guide you through the process of decorating your very own ladybug cake, from preparing the ingredients and tools needed to achieve the perfect design, to adding the finishing touches that will make your creation truly standout. So roll up your sleeves, put on your apron, and get ready to embark on an exciting baking adventure as we dive into the world of ladybug cake decoration.
To create the perfect ladybug cake, it is essential to start with a delicious and moist cake base. Here is a detailed recipe for a classic vanilla butter cake that serves as an excellent foundation for your ladybug creation.
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup whole milk
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two round cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually alternate adding the flour mixture and milk into the wet ingredients until everything is fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool completely before removing them from the pans.
With this delicious and moist cake base, you are well on your way to creating a delightful ladybug cake that will impress your guests. Once your cakes are baked and cooled, you can move on to the next step of decorating your ladybug masterpiece.
Before proceeding with decorating your ladybug cake, it’s important to gather all of the necessary tools and ingredients. Some essential items include round cake pans for achieving the shape of a ladybug, piping bags for frosting application, food coloring gel for achieving vibrant red and black colors, fondant or candy for creating spots and details, and various decorating tips. Planning ahead will ensure that you have everything you need to bring your ladybug cake to life.
To create the perfect ladybug shape for your cake, you will need to start with the right tools and techniques. Using round cake pans is essential for achieving the rounded body of the ladybug. You can use two 8-inch round cake pans to bake the cake layers. Once they are baked and cooled, you can then begin to assemble and shape the cake.
When it comes to cutting the cake to achieve the desired ladybug shape, it’s important to have a clear vision in mind. Using a serrated knife, carefully slice off the tops of the cakes to create a flat surface. Then, cut one of the cakes in half and position each half on either side of the intact cake to form the ladybug’s wings.
Next, using a template or a steady hand, trim away any excess cake from the edges to smooth out and refine the overall shape of the ladybug. Be sure to save any trimmings as they can be used later to add dimension or fill in any gaps when assembling and frosting the cake.
Overall, using round cake pans and precision cutting techniques are essential for creating the perfect ladybug shape for your cake. With patience and attention to detail, you can achieve a beautifully shaped ladybug that will be ready for icing and decorating.
Icing and Frosting
Creating a ladybug cake involves not only the shape of the cake but also the iconic red and black color scheme. When it comes to icing and frosting, there are different options to achieve this signature look. One popular option is using red and black food coloring to tint buttercream frosting. This method allows for easy customization of the intensity of colors, depending on personal preference.
Another way to create the color scheme is by using fondant. Fondant is a type of icing that can be rolled out into a thin layer and draped over the cake to create a smooth surface. It can be tinted with red and black food coloring before being applied to the cake. This method provides a clean, professional look and allows for precise detailing such as adding spots or creating other ladybug features.
To ensure that the icing or frosting is applied smoothly and evenly, it’s important to start with a crumb coat. A crumb coat is a thin layer of icing that seals in any loose crumbs on the cake before applying the final layer of frosting.
This ensures that the final layer of frosting will be neat and free from visible crumbs. Additionally, using an offset spatula can help achieve an even application of frosting, giving the ladybug cake a polished appearance.

When it comes to decorating a ladybug cake, attention to detail is key to achieving the desired look. To start, you will need to make sure that you have the necessary edible decorations such as fondant or candy in the colors needed for the ladybug’s signature spots and other details. Red and black are the primary colors used for a ladybug cake, so having these on hand is essential.
Once your cake has been baked and shaped into the perfect ladybug form, it’s time to focus on adding the spots and other decorative elements. One option for creating the spots is using small round pieces of black fondant or chocolate candies. You can also use a piping bag with black icing to create smaller dots all over the red portion of the cake.
In addition to the spots, consider adding eyes, antennae, and a smile to your ladybug cake using white fondant or icing. These details will further enhance the overall look of your creation and give it that adorable ladybug charm. Feel free to get creative with these details and make them unique to your own personal style.
Finally, remember that practice makes perfect when it comes to decorating cakes. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different techniques and designs until you achieve the perfect ladybug cake that you envisioned. Enjoying the process of decorating your ladybug cake will make the end result even sweeter.

Creating a ladybug cake for a special occasion is already a delightful and charming addition to any event. However, adding additional elements to enhance the overall look of the cake can take it to the next level. By incorporating flowers, leaves, or even other insects into the design, you can make your ladybug cake truly stand out and become a show-stopping centerpiece at any celebration.
One creative way to elevate the look of your ladybug cake is by adding edible flowers as part of the decoration. You can use flower-shaped fondant cutouts or create delicate frosting flowers to add a touch of elegance and whimsy to the design. Consider using bright and cheerful colors such as yellow, pink, or purple to contrast with the red and black colors of the ladybug.
Incorporating edible leaves into the design of your ladybug cake can create a more dynamic and visually interesting composition. You can use fondant or even fresh, clean leaves that are safe for consumption to adorn the base of the cake or scatter them around the ladybug to mimic its natural habitat. This simple addition can bring a sense of realism and depth to your cake design.
To further enhance the theme of insects in your ladybug cake design, consider adding other edible bugs such as bees or butterflies. These additional elements not only complement the overall theme but also add an element of surprise and delight for those enjoying the cake. You can use small fondant cutouts or candy decorations to easily incorporate these tiny critters into your creation.
By incorporating these additional elements into your ladybug cake design, you can elevate its visual appeal and create a truly memorable dessert for any themed party or event. Whether you choose to add flowers, leaves, or other insects, these extra touches will help bring your ladybug cake to life and showcase your creativity in how you decorate a ladybug cake.
When it comes to presenting a ladybug cake, there are several ways to make it visually appealing and add an extra special touch to any themed party or event. The presentation of the cake can enhance the overall look and feel of the dessert table, and there are various options for serving and displaying the ladybug cake that can elevate its appeal.
One fun way to serve a ladybug cake is to create a garden-themed dessert table. Place the ladybug cake as the centerpiece, surrounded by other sweet treats and desserts that complement the theme. Consider adding flower-shaped cookies, mini cupcakes with green frosting to mimic grass, or fruit skewers to create a colorful and vibrant display.
Another serving suggestion is to incorporate a creative backdrop that ties in with the ladybug theme. Consider using a decorative tablecloth with a floral or garden print, or even setting up a small playhouse or tent to create an immersive environment for the cake presentation.
For display options, consider placing the ladybug cake on a raised pedestal stand or cake platter. This not only makes it easier for guests to admire the design of the cake, but also adds an elegant touch to its presentation. Additionally, using tiered dessert stands can help create varying heights on the dessert table, making the ladybug cake stand out even more.
Another creative way to display the ladybug cake is by incorporating natural elements into its presentation. For example, place the cake on a bed of edible flower petals or fresh greenery for a whimsical and enchanting look that complements the nature-inspired theme of the ladybug cake.
By taking into consideration these serving suggestions and display options, you can ensure that your ladybug cake becomes an eye-catching centerpiece that delights guests and adds charm to any occasion. These simple yet effective tips will help elevate your presentation of this adorable themed dessert while showcasing your creativity in how you choose to present it at your next celebration.
