Kay said that because Canada is one of the few federally legal cannabis markets in the world, "there's a plus for consumers in Canada: they get pure, floral products from growers and brands that follow the process.Nurit Raphael is the CEO + co-founder of ONA.Life, a cannabis concierge/delivery service based out of Marin County. “Manufacturers in Canada grow the product to huge federal requirements, so you get an industry that produces the purest products that are tested in highly controlled laboratories,” he noted. This means that cool design is simply not part of the game. “In a sense, all brands are on an equal footing due to restrictions, and the quality of flowers is what drives sales. “There is no packaging marketing in Canada, so the only thing that matters is the quality of the flowers,” Kay wrote in an email.

Budtenders hear customer feedback and can evaluate repeat purchases. “Brands that pride themselves on quality usually ensure that retailers have a chance to try their product so they can talk about its features,” she said. Smith said if in doubt, ask the salesperson. These are all things you can't see, but they can greatly affect your experience, so shopping in stores is the best way to avoid unsafe product additives. “Bosses should not contain seeds or male flowers, which will affect the effectiveness of cannabinoids and may indicate other problems with the cultivation methods used,” the expert explained.īefore they hit the shelves, the buds still have to pass a lab test, where they are checked for cannabinoid and terpene content, as well as pesticides or microbes. Look out for signs of mold, mildew, and other signs of poor quality or unsafe product. The buds should be bright in color and have a dense concentration of trichomes, the growths should be beautifully groomed, without extra leaves and stems. Boss should be sharp and fresh, and you don't need to squeeze or grind them to release the aromatic terpenes. “First, and most importantly, cannabis flowers must pass a scent test,” she said.

![]() ![]() Even with those complaints, there is a lot to love here. Another complaint I had was that it seemed to meander a bit towards the end, and the curve ball they threw was somewhat unsatisfactory. Perhaps with time and revisits that will become more fleshed out in my mind. Whatever message her relationship with Hoffman's character was meant to convey, it was lost on me. While her performance was rock solid, her role seemed unnecessary. Some of the characterizations seemed pointless and out of place, like Paquin's character for example. I do have some complaints, but they are few and far between. I recommend seeing the film for its visual and auditory artistry alone. Brogan and his father then discuss whether it was Naturelle who tipped off the police about him. There is true technical prowess on display here. Brogan visits his father James at his Irish pub, and his father blames himself for Monty getting into the position he's in. The cinematography by Lee and Diego Prieto (The Wolf of Wall Street, Argo, Babel, and many other beautiful films) is washed out, with high contrast, and looks damn near painted on a canvas. He's joined here by the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rosario Dawson, Brian Cox, Anna Paquin, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and an exceptional Barry Pepper in what may just be his best performance to date.Ī few things to note here are the amazingly gorgeous visuals and the fantastic score by Terence Blanchard. Edward Norton leads a stellar cast in this gripping dramatic tour de force. This is truly a performance driven piece, and said performances are all top notch. He's highly respected among New York's seedy underbelly, and he has to come to grips with the decisions he's made and effects they are having on his friends and family. The film follows Monty (Norton) as he prepares to go to prison for a seven year sentence the following day. I actually preferred this film over the one I bought the double feature for most.

I also highly recommend adding a fruit tart glaze to finish it off. ![]() Step 4: Add a Simple Fruit Glaze (Optional) Consider the colors while placing your fruits and avoid placing similar colors next to each other. Try overlapping the slices to make a pretty arrangement. Leave smaller berries whole but strawberries should be sliced. Top it with whatever combination of fruit you prefer! Berries, kiwis, pineapples, orange slices! Just make sure that you pat dry your berries before using them or the color will run into the filling making it look less pretty. I used only mascarpone mixed with lemon in my strawberry tart and it worked perfectly.įeel free to add other flavorings to it also such as lemon zest or a splash of your favorite liqueur! Amaretto and Limoncello work great. The whipped cream lightens up the filling, but if you want to skip it, you can try doubling the amount of mascarpone instead. The filling is a simple mixture of mascarpone cheese and whipped cream, flavored with some vanilla and sugar. Step 2: Make The Simple Mascarpone Filling Bake the crusts for 10-12 minutes at 350☏ and let them cool. This keeps the crust from getting too puffy in the oven. Once the crust is in the pan, make sure you poke it all over the bottom AND SIDES with a fork. I chose to use 6 smaller tart pans but I have also used a 13x4 inch rectangular tart pan. Once you form the dough into a ball, you can press it into your tart pan. (Frozen butter will take longer)īeat the butter and sugar together with a wooden spoon and add in the egg yolk and salt. Just leave the butter out for an hour before starting your tart dough. ![]() To make the dough, it’s important to use softened butter! This will allow you to easily mix the butter with the sugar and egg. Yes, there is a lot of butter in there, but you will not regret the taste! It has a crumbly soft texture that’s almost like a cookie. This fresh fruit tart is made with an easy shortbread crust that can be made without a mixer and will absolutely just melt in your mouth. Easy peasy! But let's break it down so you can decide for yourself! (Be sure to also watch the video and read the recipe card before starting.) Step 1: Making The Crumbly Shortbread Crust The crust is a no-fuss shortbread and the filling does not have to be cooked and cooled like a pastry cream.Īnd the fruits on top can be whatever fruits you love.

"I do ," Houston concedes, "Because it’s about the experience and each race something is going on and I’m like, I could write a song about that.

How did Escalator Over the Hill start?Ĭarla had gone to the Five Spot to see her former husband Paul playing with Charles Mingus for an extended date. But Steve turned Gary on to it.” Burton recorded it in 1967 with Carla on keyboards and artists such as Swallow on bass, trombonists Jimmy Knepper and Howard Johnson, saxophonist Gato Barbieri, and trumpeter Michael Mantler – all of whom Bley soon enlisted for the beginnings of Escalator Over the Hill. “I had abandoned getting anyone to record it. One night he needed five tunes for an album and I came up with all five in one night.” How did Carla get introduced to artists playing new music?Īs she was making her name as a composer and arranger, bassist Steve Swallow was bringing her music to every band date he played, including Art Farmer, Steve Kuhn, and vibraphonist Gary Burton, who “adored” her composition suite, A Genuine Tong Funeral. Every time he needed a tune, he would ask me for one. “I guess he just liked the way I looked or walked…I don’t know if I was that special… But I was useful as a composer and arranger. In 1956, Paul Bley bought a pack of cigarettes from her even though he didn’t smoke. How did she meet her first husband, pianist Paul Bley?Ĭarla started playing regular piano gigs at coffeehouses in the afternoons, and would go to Birdland in the evenings. The music would influence her and inspire her to write new arrangements of songs, such as “Lullaby at Birdland” that she re-envisioned in a John Lewis style. I got a hotel room about a block from Birdland where a lot of the musicians stayed.” She listened to the radio constantly. “At the time, Birdland was a mob-run club. Not long after she read an ad in the newspaper, she applied for a job as a cigarette girl at Birdland. I can’t explain it in words, but only in notes. I heard Miles Davis play my first night there. But then I almost immediately went to Café Bohemia in Greenwich Village and I just listened. Strange and romantic.” The first place she lived in New York was on a bench in Grand Central Station. I saved all those mistakes and I used them daily.” How did Carla get to New York City? And what impact did it have on her?Īt 17, Carla ran away from home and made the cross-country trip to New York City. “I heard all the scales and all the mistakes of those poor students who were being forced by their parents to learn music. My excuse was to find music I liked and skate to it.” Back home, there was a succession of students coming to her house with a curtain between her room and the room where her father gave piano lessons. She skated in competitions but never placed high. My father called it the devil’s music.”Ĭarla left school in 10th grade and became a serious roller skater when she was 14. The band was marching up and down the aisles, and it was unusual music that I had never heard in church. That’s the kind of music I wanted to pursue.
