Okay, i got at least three yeses so here we go

A quick note: when I say "modern recipes" I mean recipes that use imported foods and post-contact cultural influence. Not all of these would have been eaten in a pre-contact northern Alaska and those with roots in our history and culture may have been prepared differently. These also come from a free pdf i found online so you can hunt it down if you want all the recipes

This first one is a recipe for duck or goose soup credited to Mike Pederson

Put water in pot, about 3/4 full.

Add 2 ducks (or 1 goose) and 2 cups chopped onions.

Add some salt and pepper.

Boil for 1/2 hour and simmer until tender

Add rice and simmer for another half hour

Add salt and pepper to taste if needed

Enjoy with sailor boy crackers and butter or jam!

Optional:

Curry Powder (about 1/2 teaspoon or so sprinkled in)

Macaroni can be added instead of rice or with the rice

Can add other veggies, like celery, carrots, etc with the rice.

Note: "sailor boy crackers" refers to Sailor Boy brand pilot bread crackers, a very slightly levened hard tack with unsalted tops. Cheap and shelf stable enough that it's a staple of Alaska Native diets.

Emma Huntsman is credited with a similar recipe for "palaugaaq" that calls for Qaugak (duck) or Niģliq (goose) to be placed in a pot and covered with water. This version calls for onions, as well as salt and pepper to taste, to be added after simmering the birds and instructs to mix flour into water or milk to thicken the soup. Rice is optional.

Brian Person gave this recipe for pan fried ptarmigan

Cut the meat off the bones of a ptarmigan.

Dip the meat into a beaten egg

Crush 20 or so Ritz or Club crackers in a ziplock bag

Add to the bag:

* 1/4 teaspoon of salt

* 1/2 teaspoon of pepper

* 1-2 teaspoons of granulated garlic

Ad meat to the bag and shake until meat is coated.

Let meat stand for 10-15 minutes with coating on it.

Then melt 1-2 tablespoons of butter in a frying pan and over medium heat fry the meat on both sides until the meat is cooked and the coating is golden brown.

Serve with potatoes or rice and vegetables

Sara Skin is credited with both of the following recipes, the first is for fermented tuttu liver and the second is for a meat based akutaq

Ingredients: 1 freshly caught summer tuttu [caribou] liver (from freshly opened carcass)

Cut open the stomach. Clean out liver from debris from stomach area

Pull stomach sack from inside of tuttu.

Cut about 5" incision into the stomach (largest chamber, also called the rumen)

Slice up liver into serving size pieces and/or cut several incisions onto liver.

Insert liver into stomach. Store stomach in gunny sack and box, in a dark shaded area away from direct sunlight. Let sit for 3-5 days.

Pull out liver from stomach and put liver in serving cannister or pan. Clean out thoroughly from stomach debris. Serve with boiled hot tuttu meat (spine, rib portion).

Delicious meal (has very tangy sweet flavor) very nutritious and full of nutrients your body needs. I make this once a year, annual serving with summer season tuttu

Note: this is done in northern Alaska, i can't vouch for how safe it is in warmer climates.

3-4 lbs caribou fat, cut up/sliced up into small pieces

1 pot full of boiled caribou meat - grind the meat - chill & wait

1 cup seal oil (optional for desired taste)

Boil and simmer (for two hours or less) caribou fat in pot until all fat has melted. Keep warm. Pour melted/warmed fat into extra large bowl.

Begin stirring process (must be prepared to stir non-stop for 2-3 hours to keep the thickness consistant). Stir caribou fat constantly (do not stop) with your whole arm, in circular motion, listening for the bubble effect. After about a 1/2 hour begin pouring 1 cup at a time of ground, boiled tuttu meat into your large bowl of caribou fat. Keep stirring constantly until you hear the bubble effect. Add 1/3 cup of seal oil (if desired) between cups of ground tuttu meat. Keep adding until you have no more ground meat.

Keep stirring until you constantly hear the bubble effect (about 3 hours total!), and then you know your Akutaq is done.

Spread out evenly on a tray, chill then freeze, and you have ready to be served frozen treats. Can be served with saltine crackers & tea. Also great snacks after lunch/dinner or for traveling. This is a natural high energy food for warmth & strength. It is a favorite treat served during nalukataq festivities

The following is Jane Patkotak's recipe for "Barrow's Finest Pickled Maktak"

Boil maktak for thirty minutes. Rinse well in hot water twice. Use plenty of salt and pepper while boiling.

Make a brine (4 pints)

* 2 cups white vinegar

* 1 3/4 cups sugar

* 4 bay leaves

* 5 cloves

* 2 teaspoons mustard seed

* 1 teaspoon black pepper

* 1 teaspoon allspice

* 1 teaspoon pickling spice

Bring to a boil for ten minutes, let it cool.

Put maktak in jars with slices of onion, lemon, and orange. Pour brine over maktak and let it stand in refrigerator for one week. Then store in a cool place.

This recipe for "Aluuttaģaaq" comes from Serving the North Slope: An Inupiat Cookbook, compiled by Terry Richards-Rail, 1990

2 pounds fresh caribou

1/2 onion, chopped

1/4 cup flour or so

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking oil

Cut caribou into bite-size pieces, fry in a little oil until done.

Add onion, cook little more

Add flour and seasoning, stirring in well. Cook until done. Add water if needed for gravy.

Serve over potatoes or rice. Carrots, celery, etc may be added with the onions if desired.

Some notes on traditional cooking and food prep:

There were different kinds of food storages, including pits dug down to permafrost to keep one's food cold

Meat did not have to be cooked. It could be eaten frozen (called qauq) or dried (called paniqtaq) as well. The process of drying meat involved cutting it into strips and hanging it on a rack. No heat was applied and it would take about 5-6 days, so you'd have to keep an eye on it and shoo away scavengers. This same process was done with fish. Fermenting was also popular.

There wasn't any sort of spice trade pre-contact. The most popular way to season food was to mix it with or dip it in seal oil (also called misiģaaq). Cooking with berries was also possible, and of course, salt came from the ocean.

During the warmer months, cooking would be done outside and the women of the village could take this time to socialize

We didn't have any grains pre-contact, and thus no bread. Anyone who tells you literally every culture under the sun had grain and bread without any outside influence is either a liar or limiting what they count as a culture. Instead of bread or grains, the big subsistance staple was meat and fat.

Seal oil lamps could be used to roast food, but weren't used for boiling. Instead, rocks would be heated and placed in (sometimes wooden) pots of water.

In between seal oil lamps falling out of fashion and household ovens becoming commonplace, Inupiaq women used commercially available camp stoves to cook for their families.

Foods that could be common for Water Tribesmen, in case anyone needs inspiration:

Meat (eaten dried, smoked, boiled, or frozen) (note: in such harsh environments, wasting tends to be looked down upon, so as many edible parts would be eaten as possible. This would include the tongue, heart, and liver.)

Seal (canon) (also, seal oil as a sauce or condiment)

Chiton (possibly canon depending on how you interpret "sea prunes")

Crab (canon)

Fish (salmon, whitefish, trout), fish eggs

Walrus

Whale/muktuk

Ptarmigan and grouse (possibly canon, depending on how you interpret "arctic hen"), ptarmigan and grouse eggs

Rabit and hare

Caribou

Produce (eaten fresh, added to other foods, or more rarely cooked)

Berries (bluberry, low-bush and high-bush cranberry, salmonberry, cloudberry, wild raspberry, rosehip) (can be made into jam)

Fireweed shoots (roots can be roasted as well, flowers can be made into jelly, leaves can be processed into a tea)

Eskimo potato/masru (just the root, the rest of the plant is poisonous)

Seaweed

Sourdock

Dishes/specially prepared foods

Soups

Akutaq (whipped fat with meat, fish, and/or berries; sometimes sweetened)

Mikigaq (fermented whale meat and muktuk)

Tepa (fermented fish head)

Fry bread

Pancakes

Imported foods (may have been intercepted by the Fire Nation navy and thus even more scarce at some points in the South Pole)

Cereal grains/flour

Yeast

Dairy products

Tea

Hardtack crackers

Sugar

Seasonings like garlic, pepper, ginger, etc (salt can be gathered from seawater)

Vegetables like carrots, cabbage, onions, etc; and fruits like pears, stonefruits, and citrus (likely dried or otherwise preserved ahead of time or soon upon importing because repeated freezing and thawing causes faster spoilage)

Meats like chicken, beef, and pork

Types of oil that don't come from animal fat

[TASK 068: METIS]

Shout out to @olivaraofrph​​​ for helping compile this task in celebration of Native American Heritage Month! Metis are a distinct group of people separate from Native American or First Nations tribes, as their ancestors were early French and English colonizers who early on mixed with members of Native tribes, mostly Wabanaki, Mi'kmaq, Algonquin, Saulteaux, Cree, Ojibwe, Menominee, or Maliseet but others made their ways too. As Metis evolved, many continued to marry other mixed people, and sometimes other Europeans or Natives, to get to where it is today as a distinct native identity to be Metis. For the most part they reside in Canada, where they are recognized as one of the three groups of Aboriginal people, but to a lesser extent, they live in the US as well. There’s a masterlist below compiled of over 110+ Metis faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever character or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

Reducing Voluntary Sex Work Stigma in Mental Health Professions

Hi there,

 I’m Anna Pederson, a Master’s student in The University of Memphis’ Clinical Mental Health Counseling program.  I’m working with Dr. Sara Bridges and a doctoral student, Madeline Stenersen, on a study aimed at reducing stigmatization of voluntary sex workers within mental health professions.  I’m writing to ask you would be willing to either post our flyer for this study on your group’s page or to send this flyer out to your email list or those who follow your page.

We’re interested in learning from individuals, who identify as voluntary sex workers, about their experiences with disclosing involvement in sex work to therapists, ideal ways a therapist could respond, and areas for education growth in mental health professions.  We recognize mental health care professions don’t always get it right when working with folks in this community.  We hope to use the expertise shared by volunteers to inform future education and training of mental health professionals with the hope that services provided for sex workers will be more accessible and therapists will be better able to meet the needs of this community.

She has also served as a TT Leader and Summer Staffer during her time at Belmont.

Finding Theta: "They are bright. They are thinkers. They are problem-solvers. They want to make the world better and fairer. The walls and political divisiveness that I feel so heavily in my daily life seem to evaporate when I walk into chapter, into a sanctuary in which I witness powerful women actively working to improve their communities, create impactful artwork, start businesses, or conduct innovative research. The necessity of their work cannot be overstated. I know that my sisters’ minds and talents will leave footprints on hundreds of other communities beyond our beloved Nashville, as many already have.” Favorite Theta Moment(s): “Sophomore year formal at The Standard, relationships with Giovanna, Erin, and Annie, rooming with my soulmate Zoey Bloom, rooming with Emery, rooming with Sam, kite sister date with meg mac, 12 hour long kite sister date with AnnVan, Red Bicycle dates with Madi, Breanna’s 22nd birthday on a boat, working with Queen HNelly, prefing Alyssa, Elenor, and Sandra, rapping BO$$ and doing a basket toss in Sophomore year Greek Sing, and traveling to Alaska with Hannah.”

Lessons Learned: “Ladies got to stick togetha!! It is so beautiful when women build each other up, loving, praying for, and supporting each other instead of viewing each other as competition. #fem #in #ism.”

Favorite Quotes: “Life is a combination of magic and pasta.” Words of Wisdom: “Reach out to sisters that post on the prayer request page, it takes a lot of courage to do that; SCHOLARSHIP REALLY IS THE HIGHEST AIM; Never take this supportive community for granted; Know that your gifts are recognized; Being more vulnerable leads to more meaningful relationships; Apply for summer staff; Never let anyone convince you that beauty is more important than intelligence and good character.”

Shoutouts: (Graduated: Giovanna, Breanna, Hannah, Kayla, Maddy) Zoey, Erin, Annie, Gracie, Madi, Haley Nelly, AnnVan, Maddy Clarke, MegMac, Ryann, Austyn, Carol, Megan Albright, Alyssa Seefeldt, Sarah Ritter, Sara Scannell, Marissa Vogelsang, the Marketing Committee, 2016 MDC, 2016 Exec

P.S. Thank you to everyone who was not mentioned that contributed to my Theta experience, saw the potential in my abilities, believed in my when I didn’t believe in myself, and empowered me to be a better follower of Christ, a better student, and a better member of my community. I love you all and I can’t wait to continue my involvement in Theta for the rest of my life.

Zoey Bloom is an International Business major from Libertyville, Illinois.

During her time in Theta she has served as IT Director in addition to being involved in SGA and Bruin Recruiters.

Finding Theta: “I wanted to find a community in college of people who would challenge me, make me laugh, and support me emotionally. Theta women just embody leadership, drive, and a work-hard, play-hard, love-hard attitude that I felt immediately during recruitment.” Favorite Theta Moment: “I’ve loved every single formal/semi-formal because it is so fun to get all dressed up with sisters and dance like crazy together. Actually, any time we burst into a spontaneous dance party would be my favorite memory. Thetas know how to get down.”

Lessons Learned: “Theta has taught me that women supporting other women are an unstoppable force. I’ve learned how to use my ambitions and goals to help others, and to chase after chances to be a leader in my community. I’ve learned that black and gold are definitely my power colors. I’ve learned to let faith, hope, and love guide me as I figure out my place in the world.”

Favorite Quotes: “To those who stay put, the world is but an imaginary place. But to the movers, the makers, and the shakers, the world is all around, an endless invitation.” - Unknown Words of Wisdom: “No matter how strong you think you are, it is okay to be vulnerable and let your guard down sometimes. When you you surround yourself with good quality friends, they will love you and care for you when you’re down.”

Shoutouts: Tay Ped for being the most fun roommate ever and one of my closest friends. Olivia Hosey for taking a chance on my old study abroad program and letting Antibes into her life. Mare Rote for being Mare Rote. Ryann Dean for being the only person I knew at Belmont when I first got here and for being one of the sweetest sisters I could have asked for.

It is, he admits, a “weird little thing that I think about,” but he’s not wrong. Most iconic music photos -- whether it’s Paul Simon smashing his bass onstage or Johnny Cash furiously flipping the bird -- need no other hues beyond black and white. Anything else is a distraction: too flagrant, too revealing, too matter-of-fact. Witcher would rather let the creative process retain some sense of fantasy and wonder.

Thirty years into his career, he has yet to tire of the mystery. Something like a child prodigy on the fiddle, he paid his dues in the Southern California bluegrass scene, appearing on Star Search in the 1980s before joining Herb Pederson’s band, the Laurel Canyon Ramblers, as a teenager. Witcher has recorded with Béla Fleck, Dave Rawlings, Eric Clapton, and many others, but he’s best known as a founding member of the renowned prog-grass group Punch Brothers. Comprised of superlative musicians, they’ve recorded four albums of adventurous acoustic music with such producers as T Bone Burnett, Jacquire King, and Jon Brion.

Throughout his career, Witcher has gravitated toward the other side of the glass, gradually accepting more production responsibilities within Punch Brothers and without. He helmed Sara Watkins’ breakout third album, Young in All the Wrong Ways, in 2016, and this year he produced two new records by his Punch Brethren: Universal Favorite finds banjoist Noam Pikelny going truly solo, just his voice and banjo in a variety of styles and settings, and Witcher ensures it sounds both intimate and expansive. For Mount Royal, the second collaborative album by guitarists Chris “Critter” Eldridge” and Julian Lage, the producer emphasizes their masterful technique as well as their subtle and insightful arrangements. They’re representational albums, he says, but full of verve and skill and even a little mystery.

Como conseguir o cabelo vermelho cereja

O vermelho cereja é um tom de vermelho entre os mais intensos e vibrantes. Conforme a visagista e colorista Carine Dias, para chegar nesse tom é preciso saber a sua cor base natural.

Conforme a especialista, em tons acima de 7 (louro médio) pode-se obter esse tom sem descoloração prévia. Já em tons naturais mais escuros geralmente é realizada uma descoloração leve para abertura de 3 a 4 tons, e então se aplica uma base vermelha com nuance intensa e muitas vezes um intensificador de vermelho para deixar a cor ainda mais vibrante e luminosa.

Cabelos que tenham qualquer tipo de coloração nos fios precisarão de descoloração. “A tentativa de aplicar um vermelho em um cabelo que esteja natural na raiz e coloração preta no comprimento e pontas, por exemplo, com certeza vai ficar manchado, pois a coloração vai mudar a cor na raiz e onde houver a coloração não vai obter mudança de tom”, comenta Carine. Nesses casos deve-se proceder a descoloração apenas onde existe a coloração.

Como cuidar do cabelo vermelho cereja

Allizeth Reyes

Assim como todo cabelo tingido, o vermelho cereja requer bastante atenção para não ficar desbotado e sem brilho. Confira algumas recomendações.

Proteja os cabelos do sol: seja com um chapéu ou utilizando produtos capilares com proteção UV, é essencial cuidar com a exposição solar.

Utilize produtos específicos para cabelos tingidos: do shampoo ao creme de pentear, dê preferência aos cosméticos feitos especialmente para quem utiliza tintura. A fórmula desses produtos contam com ingredientes especiais que ajudam a fixar a cor por mais tempo.

Evite água muito quente: o ideal mesmo seria lavar o cabelo com água fria. Tudo em nome de madeixas vibrantes!

Aposte em máscaras pigmentadoras: conforme a colorista Carine Dias, as máscaras evitam o desbotamento, agindo com pigmentos e tratamento, prolongando o tempo de retoque com coloração.

Mantenha a hidratação em dia: fazer hidratações periódicas nas madeixas tingidas ajuda a manter a cor por mais tempo, além de dar brilho e deixar os fios sedosos.

Nada muito complicado, certo? Com um pouco de dedicação, seu cabelo ficará lindo, sedoso e colorido por muito mais tempo.

Como conseguir o cabelo vermelho cereja

O vermelho cereja é um tom de vermelho entre os mais intensos e vibrantes. Conforme a visagista e colorista Carine Dias, para chegar nesse tom é preciso saber a sua cor base natural.

Conforme a especialista, em tons acima de 7 (louro médio) pode-se obter esse tom sem descoloração prévia. Já em tons naturais mais escuros geralmente é realizada uma descoloração leve para abertura de 3 a 4 tons, e então se aplica uma base vermelha com nuance intensa e muitas vezes um intensificador de vermelho para deixar a cor ainda mais vibrante e luminosa.

Cabelos que tenham qualquer tipo de coloração nos fios precisarão de descoloração. “A tentativa de aplicar um vermelho em um cabelo que esteja natural na raiz e coloração preta no comprimento e pontas, por exemplo, com certeza vai ficar manchado, pois a coloração vai mudar a cor na raiz e onde houver a coloração não vai obter mudança de tom”, comenta Carine.

PP 551: Choosing Joy with Laura Pedersen

“Along the way, there are silver linings, and if we are not still we don't see them, just be still...those silver linings are what can bring you joy”

Laura will also be discussing with Kim about her ministry, about how changing your perspective can change your life, why you need to be still and why we need to trust God above all.

Small update on the Duarte gen 1 family (just Camilo)

Camilo and his fiancé, Sara, are currently living in Vic and Phoenix’s basement. I’m not sure if they have plans to move out at some point..

Choose Faith

Choose Faith

Hebrews 11:1, 6  “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. And without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”

They say that faith is believing without seeing. In the book, Choose Joy: Finding Hope and Purpose When Life Hurts, My sister Sara said that she believes that faith is believing without seeing, but it is also believing without feeling.  It’s believing in those moments when our hearts ache and our tears betray us by spilling over when we know better but feel the pain anyway.

It’s not about always being in a happy place, as much as we should try to live there. It’s about believing even when the happy place isn’t ours to have. It’s about those times when we can’t see or feel the promise, but we believe in the promise anyway.

Faith isn’t a feeling. It’s believing despite our feelings.

And I do.

The bible tells us in Matthew 24:35; “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” And in 1 Peter 1:25, “The word of the Lord endures forever…”

Faith is trusting God’s word, which never changes.

There are many things in life that will change…our health, friendships, jobs, homes…kids grow and move away; loved ones pass away. Some of these changes can bring us joy, but along with joy are often feelings of loneliness, sadness, and brokenness.

Through all of these feelings, God’s word never changes. No matter how we feel, we can choose to surrender our life to God knowing and having faith that His word never changes.

There have been times in my life that God has seemed far away. It is during those times that I choose to surrender to Him and remind myself to trust and have faith in His word. His word tells me that His love is unconditional. That His love endures forever.

Psalm 136:1 “Give thanks to the Lord for He is good. His love endures forever.”

Choose Faith, my friends.

The Real Story

As I prepare for Christmas, one thing that I love doing is going back to Sara’s blog and remember what she wrote…remember her perspective. God’s perspective. I do believe that Sara opened her mind and heart to God so He could teach us through her.

I love this post, Sara wrote on “The Real Story.” I pray it will be a blessing to you!

When I think about being little and hearing the story of Jesus’ birth, I remember being amazed at such an important baby being born in a manger. I even remember being amazed that Mary said yes to the angel without a second thought. But mostly I remember having a romanticized version of the Nativity in my mind.

I pictured Mary serene and sure of herself. I imagined her smiling and joyful because such an amazing thing was asked of her. My mind saw her as she was in all the pictures and Nativity scenes… lovely, peaceful, wearing spotless garments, draped in blue and hair perfect. The barn looked clean and lovely, and the manger seemed as though it was always meant for a baby.

If only life were truly that picture perfect.

The real story.

The one where their lives were full of the worry of work and taxes and what neighbors think of you. The story where Mary says yes to the angel, but walks away with questions and concerns. The one where Joseph needs coaxing to believe in Mary, the one where her parents want her to stay home from the census to protect her, the one where their neighbors shun them for what is perceived as their sinful ways. The story where Mary and Joseph admit their fears to each other but continue on their journey because they answered the call to do what was right.

They didn’t just peacefully travel to Bethlehem on a donkey, as we see in the story books. They struggled. They ran out of food. They nearly lost their footing crossing a river and Mary prayed aloud that God would help them find a way to get through their journey.

She didn’t ask for a chariot. She didn’t ask for their way to be made simple. She didn’t ask for God to reveal His plan to all so she wouldn’t have to suffer the humiliation. She didn’t ask for it to be easy. Mary simply asked for help and strength. And she was given both.

Sometimes it seems natural for us to think that life is supposed to be easy. Or, if we’re on the right path, that it should be made smooth for us. But if we can learn anything from Mary and Joseph, it’s that we should forge ahead doing right for right’s sake. Whether the journey seems impossible, or it seems we deserve better … we need only remember that God’s own Son didn’t have an easy way into this life. Or out of it. But He was given the same help and strength that was given to His parents. The same help and strength that is offered to us every day if we choose to look, not beyond our circumstances, but in the midst of them.

Mary and Joseph didn’t wait until they were in a cozy home to be grateful that God had pulled them through. In the midst of the rough circumstances they found at the stable, they recognized the gift that had been entrusted to them.

This Christmas, as we think about what didn’t go quite right or how we may have wanted things to be easier, stop and remember that just as Mary and Joseph found all those years ago, we too are always given blessings in the hay.

It’s so easy to get distracted by the difficulties instead of the joy, but today – and every day – should be about remembering why we are here. Who gave us life. The struggle He had to go through just to be born. The faithfulness of Mary and Joseph, not to be rescued and their burdens eased, but instead to fulfill what God asked of them.

We are here because He was born.

How blessed we are.
