Nostalgia for Kerala (and its food) by Pete Cherches
1. There are beautiful beaches and backwaters, places of great historical interest, reflecting the region's varied colonial past, and an overall sense of contentment and well-being among the people.
2. The instrumentation is Indian, the melodies slightly Arabic, and the combination is beautiful.
3. The dancers have perfect control of all face and body muscles, and the make-up is striking and elaborate.
4. It was a lovely, idyllic place, and I felt a bit like Gaugin arriving in Tahiti.
5. The sauce for the kingfish curry had a nice, tangy bite, and the beef fry had an aromatic dry masala that reminded me a bit of Indonesian rendang.
Turn out the lite....by Anderson Digby
1. There is a word that usefully captures this trend to the insipid and denatured, and it is "Lite".
2. Lite is insipid, weak, denatured, flat, diluted, and easy: food for cowards and children.
3. He is ignorant, timid, squeamish, and childish.
4. Our morality is Lite, childish, and diluted.
5. Our religion is insipid, and undemanding.
