Decorative Plates

It's been awhile since we last posted something on the theme of the decorative arts, so I'm happy to have found this book—especially because it was mis-shelved in the stacks! This book is House and Garden's Book of Color Schemes, which contains "over two hundred color schemes and three hundred illustrations of halls, living rooms, dining rooms, bed chambers, sun rooms, roofs, garden rooms, kitchens and baths; the characteristic colors of each decorative period; how to select a color scheme, with unusual treatments for painted furniture and floors; a portfolio of crystal rooms and eight pages of unusual interiors in color." It was edited by long-time editor of House & Garden Richardson Wright (1887-1961) and Margaret McElroy, associate editor, and published by Condé Nast Publications, Inc. in 1929.

The book includes a large number of photographs of rooms, however, they are mostly in black and white—an unfortunate thing for a book about color! The promised eight color illustrations of rooms are not all present in our copy, but the five that are still in the book are shown here, alongside some of their black and white compatriots. I especially love the one titled "Tawny Yellow in Variety" that features a shocking amount of leopard print.

If you've read any of the posts I usually write, you know that I love a good binding—this one is a publisher's binding in a chartreuse-y yellow book cloth with art deco-style silver tooling featuring stars and leaves. Somebody took it upon themselves to write the publication date on the cover above the title—how thoughtful!

CNN - More than 400 staffers at Condé Nast, the parent company of prestigious publications including Vanity Fair, Vogue and GQ, walked off the job Tuesday in a historic 24-hour work stoppage over the company’s plan to lay off staff. The daylong walkout, intentionally timed on the day of the Academy Awards nominations, is in protest of what the NewsGuild of New York described as “unlawful handling of layoff negotiations and bad-faith bargaining."

Amikor megérkeztem a kánhái tigrisrezervátum melletti szállásomra, ez az ebéd várt.

Már nem pontosan emlékszem, de talán goai hal, lencsefőzelék, paprikás krumpli, sült okra, helyben termelt vadrizs, saláta, csapati. Utána volt még desszert is, de már nem tudom, hogy valamilyen tejes cucc vagy répapuding vagy laddú vagy mi volt, de biztos jó volt.

Ízhatás 6/5, hangulat 5/5, árértékarány 4/5.

Mindennap ilyen lakomákat szolgáltak fel ebédre és vacsorára. Szerintem 3 nap alatt több kilót híztam.

Arról nem is beszélve, hogy a Delhiből ideszakadt hochértelmiségi vendéglátók* felvilágosultságukban odáig mentek, hogy nemhogy húst ettek, de konkrétan volt később füstölt disznóhús is valamilyen levesben (sose értettem, hogy mi történik itt a disznókkal: mindenfelé látok egy csomót, csak étlapon nem). Sőt, minden este italoztunk. Az ember főleg a helyben termelt mahua-pálinkáját szolgálta fel. A mahua állítólag az egyetlen virág a világon, amiből pálinkát lehet főzni, és a terméket már a Védák is orvosságként ajánlják.

*Az asszony könyvszerkesztő volt, többek között a Lonely Planet indiai főszerkesztője, az ember meg újságíró, napilap-alapító, tévéproducer, díjnyertes dokumentumfilmes, természetvédő, most meg a bennszülött törzsek alkoholfőzési szokásairól írja magnum opuszát (már 12 éve, de bizakodó, hogy hamarosan kész lesz), illetve kijárta a madhjapradési hatóságoknál, hogy a helyi törzsek legálisan főzhessenek mahua-pálinkát.

Egész eddig ez volt az egyetlen drága szállásom, de legalább a Condé Nast Traveller külön cikket szentelt neki.

Ja, és egészen pro-EU rendszámuk van:
