Swoop - Storage Bag & Play Mat-in-One

I remember seeing a playing mat for kids when I lived in USA. It was perfect for keeping all the toys storaged, and the kids didn´t mind to pick up their toys when being told! I haven´t seen them in Spain, and I think it´s a great idea, specially for tiny pieces, like Lego...!!

Sainkho

Sainkho Namtchylak (sainkho),born 1957, is a singer originally from Tuva. She is known for her Tuvan throat singing or Khöömei. 

I think she´s amazing. She has an incredible voice, it´s like a healing voice. Her music encompasses avant-jazz, electronica, modern composition and Tuvan influences. She uses the new technologies because (she says) "they help and make it easy to show the new generations this ancient singing"

For today´s dinner...Flower Power Eggs

Yummy!!

How to cook these Flower Power Eggs: 1) Cut bell peppers into 1/2 inch rings; 2) Place in a non-stick lightly oiled skillet; and 3) Crack an egg in the middle of each ring and cover and cook over low heat until done. If you like your yolks runny, just cook over low heat until whites are done. If you like your yolks firm, break the yolks and then cook over low heat until both whites and yolks are firm.
