A Leo birthday in the house was the occasion to put the fabulous woodfired oyster platter by Yuri Wiedenhofer to ceremonial use, complemented with side dishes by Lex Dickson.

Books await their time and this alighted from the shelf soon after I had read 'the Butterfly Effect' by Vanessa Berry in her Collection, Gentle and Fierce. Maria Merian's remarkable story will be part of my daily read. #butterflypaintings #mariamerian #naturalhistory #thegirlwhodrewbutterflies #joycesidman #printersandengravers #gundungurracountry

Posted @withregram • @theageaustralia When the @prahranmarket traders were told a COVID-19-positive customer had visited the market and it would have to shut for cleaning, millions of dollars of fresh food was put in peril.The exposure meant the stalls had to close for up to 10 days because of isolation requirements for staff.
Instead of simply throwing it out, traders have donated thousands of kilograms of produce to good causes.
Recipients include @fareshare_australia, @asrc1, @ozharvest and @secondbiteorg.
One seafood trader donated 400 kilograms of premium fish because he wanted to do some good in a hard time.
FareShare Victoria kitchen manager Crickette DerJeu (Picture 3) says the fish – including toothfish, blue cod, King George whiting and blue fin tuna – would be made into more than 3000 free meals for the disadvantaged.
DerJeu says she spoke to Periwinkle Fine Seafood owner Ting Gao (Picture 1) on Friday. “And he said, ‘you can take everything’.”
It was an amazing gift to clients, DerJeu (Picture 3) says: “They absolutely will love it. They’ll just feel very special to have a beautiful meal. We’re so blessed that these people are thinking of us.”
Gao says his business was closed while staff, including him and his wife and daughter, isolated at home because the job was too specialist for replacements to be found in time.
“It is bad luck for me and my family, and my staff,” he said. “But I wish the bad feelings end with me. I want to pass the good and positive things to others and society, let them feel warm this winter. That is the reason I donate all of my high-quality seafoods.”
Prahran Market general manager Simon Ward praised the “super generous traders” who had donated an estimated 2000 kilograms of fruit and vegetables, 1000 kilograms of seafood, and several hundred kilograms each of dairy products and ready-to-eat meals.
Kon Karapanagiotidis, CEO of the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, says the market’s Reliable Fruit stall donated more than 100 boxes of fruit and vegetables (Picture 4) that would feed over 300 families.
Karapanagiotidis says he was “humbled and so grateful” for the gesture of “love, compassion and decency”.

Sunday afternoon was too windy and cold to garden, so the time had come to begin reading 'Gentle and Fierce:' @vanessaberryworld. In her delicately illustrated collection of vivid texts, Vanessa Berry's exquisite writings seem to take a hybrid form between essay and prose poem. I would love to be able to acquire this book in hard cover. #gentleandfierce #essays #prosepoem #australianwriting #artistwriter #australianillustration #contemporarydrawing #contemporarywriting #essayprosepoem #jonathanswift #berkelowbookbarn

Bastille Day Posted @withregram • @ifpda Martin Puryear: "The Phrygian cap . . . has been a signifier for the idea of liberty, going back to ancient Greece, but also during the French and American revolutions."
