The Pasty and the Miners / La empanada y los mineros

Cornish Pasty / Empanada de Cornualles

Pasties and miners are quite related in Britain. Especially Cornish pasties and Cornish miners. The typical Cornish pasty has Protected Geographical Indication status in Europe. To prepare a pasty you have to fill a pasty sheet with beef, potatoes, onions and swede, rutabaga or yellow turnip, season the filling with salt and pepper, fold up the pasty and seal it forming a D shape and bake it in the oven.  
Las empanadas y los mineros van muy unidos en la cultura anglo-sajona. Sobre todo las empanadas y los mineros de Cornualles. La empanada típica de ese lugar está protegida en Europa con denominación de origen. Para prepararla, hay que  rellenar una masa con ternera, dados de patata, cebolla y nabo sueco, colinabo o nabo amarillo,  sazonar el relleno con sal y pimienta,  doblar y sellar la masa dándola forma de D y hornear la empanada resultante.
Abandoned Cornish Mine / Mina abandonada en Cornualles

The pasty seems to have started out as a food for the rich, who sent them to each other as prized gifts, but it ended up becoming a working class dish because it was very easy to manage. It was easy to transport to one's place of work, stayed warm for hours and could be heated if cold even over a candle. Besides, it was a complete meal in itself.
Parece que la empanada empezó en el mundo anglo-sajón como comida de ricos, que se enviaban empanadas como regalos preciados, pero acabó convirtiéndose en un plato muy cómodo de manejar por la clase trabajadora porque se podía transportar al lugar de trabajo muy fácilmente, conservaba bien el calor y si se enfriaba se podía calentar incluso sobre una vela. Además, era una comida bastante completa en sí.
You could mark the crust on one side with an initial or other sign so if you did not eat the pasty whole at one time you could easily identify and claim the leftover portion later. Sometimes they were packed in cloth bags and the Cornish miners almost always ate them holding the thick end and eating everything save that to avoid being poisoned by the arsenic they had on their fingers due to their job. 
Podías marcar la masa en una punta con una inicial o una señal, de modo que si no te comías la empanada entera de una vez y reservabas el lado señalado para más tarde, podías reconocer lo que sobraba luego y reclamarlo como tuyo. A veces se metían en bolsas de tela, y  los mineros de Cornualles casi siempre al comerlas las agarraban por el lado sellado, por la parte mas gruesa, y se comían todo menos ese borde que luego tiraban para evitar envenenarse con el arsénico que les quedaba en las manos al realizar su trabajo.

Knocker / Golpeador
But the thick end was not discarded only to avoid poisoning. It was tossed as an offering to the knockers, sprites that dwelt in the mines and gave  knocks  skeptics cannot explain and that warned the miners when a tunnel would collapse or encouraged them to continue when they were near a rich vein of ore. Because they never knock at all on Saturday, some say that they are the souls of Jews that the Romans forced to work in mines centuries ago.

Pero ese trozo de masa gruesa no se tiraba solamente para evitar envenenamientos. Era también algo que se compartía con los golpeadores, espíritus que habitan en las minas y dan golpes que los escépticos no pueden explicar. Estos golpecitos alertaban a los mineros de que estaban cerca de una gran veta o les advertían de que un túnel se iba a colapsar. Como no dan golpe alguno los sábados, hay quienes dicen que son las almas de judíos obligados a trabajar en minas por los romanos hace siglos.

Bal Maidens /Doncellas del bal
 Cornish pasties are also called "oggies." When it was lunchtime at the mine, the bal maidens, ladies who worked on the surface, shouted down the tunnels "Oggy! Oggy! Oggy!" and the miners below would answer "Oi! Oi! Oi!"
Las empanadas de Cornualles también son llamadas “oguis.”  Cuando llegaba la hora de comer, las doncellas del bal, mujeres que trabajaban en la superficie de las minas, gritaban túnel abajo “¡Ogui! ¡Ogui! ¡Ogui!” (¡Empanada! ¡Empanada! ¡Empanada!) y los hombres contestaban “¡Oi! ¡Oi! ¡Oi!” (¡Sí! ¡Sí! ¡Sí!).
Cornish pasties became famous all over the world because the Cornish miners went to work to other countries where their services were needed, including Australia and the USA, where they celebrate pasty fests in the summer. We once went to one in Camulet, Michigan and we're happy we did. 
Las empanadas de Cornualles se hicieron famosas por todo el mundo porque los mineros de esa localidad fueron a trabajar a otros países donde eran necesarios sus servicios, incluidos Australia y los Estados Unidos de América, donde se celebran fiestas de la empanada en verano.Una vez estuvimos en una en Camulet, Michigan y nos alegramos de haber ido.

One Meatball / Una albóndiga





It is quite common to have spaghetti with meatballs in the U.S.A., but when times are hard...

Es algo muy corriente tomar espagueti con albóndigas en los Estados Unidos de América, pero cuando los tiempos son duros...

A little man walked up and down,
He found an eating place in town,
He read the menu through and through,
To see what fifteen cents could do.
One meat ball, one meat ball,
He could afford but one meat ball.
He told the waiter near at hand,
The simple dinner he had planned.
The guests were startled, one and all,
To hear that waiter loudly call,
“What? One meat ball, one meat ball?
Hey, this here gent wants one
meat ball!”
The little man felt ill at ease,
Said, “Some bread, sir, if you please.”
The waiter hollered down the hall,
“You gets no bread with one meat ball!
One meat ball- no spaghetti! One meat ball!
Well, you gets no bread with one
meat ball!”
The little man felt very bad,
One meat ball was all he had,
And in his dreams he hears that call,
“You gets no bread with one meat ball!
One meat ball- no spaghetti! One meat ball!
Well, you gets no bread with one
meat ball!”

Un hombrecillo caminó hacia arriba y hacia abajo
Hasta encontrar un lugar en el que comer.
Leyó el menú de pe a pa
Buscando algo que pudiese pedir por 15 céntimos.
Una albóndiga. Pero sin espagueti. Una albóndiga.
Sólo podía permitirse una albóndiga.

Le comunicó al camarero
La sencilla cena que pensaba tomar.
La clientela del lugar se escandalizó
Al escuchar al camarero gritar
"¿Cómo?¿Una albóndiga? ¡¡¡Una albóndiga!!!
¡Eh! ¡Este tío quiere una albóndiga!"
El hombrecillo se inquietó,
"Y un poco de pan, señor, por favor," pidió.
El camarero gritó a lo largo de la sala,
"¡No tienes derecho a pan con una sola albóndiga!
¡Una albóndiga!¡Nada de espagueti! ¡Una albóndiga!
¡No hay pan para acompañar a una sola albóndiga!"
El hombrecillo se sentía fatal,
Una albóndiga fue todo lo que tomó.
Y en sus sueños oye esos gritos de
"¡No tienes derecho a pan con una albóndiga!
Una albóndiga. ¡Nada de espagueti! ¡Una albóndiga!
¡¡Pues no hay pan para acompañar a una sola albóndiga!!"

Nauta's Mini Mythology - Nike / Mini mitología de Nauta - Niké

Nike / Niké

I'm not squashing the pigeon. I'm very, very light and nobody finds me hard to bear.

No estoy aplastando a la paloma. Soy muy, muy ligera y a nadie le peso.



Yes, ladies and gentlemen. This month there will be a lot of talk about victories in peaceful competitions. First there was football and in a few days we will have the Olympics. We hope the goddess Nike, whom we Romans call Victoria, continues to bless Hispania with her laurel crowns. From here, we congratulate the footballers and  we wish everyone who will participate in the Olympic Games the best of luck.  

Sí, señores y señoras. Este mes se va a hablar mucho de victorias en encuentros de competencia amistosa. Primero el football y dentro de unos días las Olimpiadas. Esperemos que la diosa Niké, a la que los romanos llamamos Victoria, siga bendiciendo a Hispania con sus cornonas de laurel. Desde aquí, felicitamos a los futbolistas y deseamos muy buena suerte a todos los que van a participar en los Juegos Olímpicos.  

As for Nike, what more can we say than that she is and has always been possibly the most desired woman in the world? In fact, the Athenians were so determined to have her always with them that they cut the wings off the image they had of this goddess in her temple in their city so she would never leave them. They called the wingless deity Nike Aptera, which means just that, wingless victory.

En cuanto a Niké, hay que decir que es y siempre ha sido posiblemente la mujer más deseada del mundo. De hecho, los atenienses estaba tan decididos a tenerla siempre entre ellos que cortaron las alas a la imagen que tenían de esta diosa en su templo de Atenas para que nunca les abandonase. Llamaron a esta deidad sin alas Niké áptera, que significa Victoria sin alas.

In Art, you will often find Nike driving a chariot. She was the charioteer of Zeus, king of the gods, whenever he rode to battle. You will also find her in the shape of a little doll next to the goddess Athena. They have a lot in common and therefore get along very well. Some people say they are the same person. 

En el arte, con frecuencia encontramos a Niké conduciendo un carro. Es la conductora del carro de batalla de Zeus cuando éste va a la guerra. También la encontrarás bajo la forma de una muñequita junto a la diosa Atenea. Tienen mucho en común, por lo que se llevan fenomenal. Algunos dicen que son la misma persona.


Athena: You're so cute. Like me when I was little. You're such a doll!
Nike: I will always be your dolly! With me on your side, you're invincible.

Atenea: Eres monísima, como yo de pequeña. ¡Una auténtica muñequita!
Niké: ¡Siempre seré tu muñequita! Conmigo de tu parte, serás invencible.


Emily Dickinson

       Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.
Not one of all the purple host
Who took the flag to-day
Can tell the definition,
So clear, of victory
As he, defeated, dying,
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!

El éxito es tenido por más dulce
por quienes nunca lo consiguen.
Comprender un nectar
Requiere la más desesperada necesidad.
Ni uno de la hueste purpúrea
Que hoy ha conquistado la bandera
Puede definir
Con tanta claridad la victoria
Como el que yace muriendo derrotado
Y en cuyo oído prohibido
Los distantes acordes del triunfo
Estallan ¡agonizantes y claros!

Five Dialogues About Clothes / Cinco Diálogos Sobre Ropa

Mary is a very busy businesswoman. Her job requires her to be very well dressed, but she has no time to go shopping for the latest designer clothes, so she has a personal shopper. His name is Tom and he is an authority when it comes to fashion. Mary has to spend a week closing a deal in the Bermudas and Tom has just bought Mary new clothes for this trip.

María es una mujer de negocios muy ocupada. Su trabajo requiere que vaya siempre muy bien vestida pero no tiene tiempo para ir de compras y adquirir ropa de diseño para ir a la última. Para eso ha contratado a un asistente de compras. Se llama Tomás y es una autoridad en moda. María tiene que pasar una semana cerrando un negocio en las Bermudas y Tomás le ha comprado ropa nueva para este viaje.

Mary: Hi, Tom! What have you got for me?

Tom: A ton of simply divine summer clothes. Look at these posh tank tops with genuine semi-precious stones. I love the turquoise one. Don’t you?

Mary: They’re gorgeous. Ah, and two pairs of shorts and two matching miniskirts to go with them. I love these clothes, they’re not only posh, they’re also comfortable.

Tom: Look at these three breathtaking bikinis, one in fresh lime green, another in three shades of blue and one in nude, so you’ll look like Venus stepping out of the sea.

Mary: I wonder which will suit me best.

Tom: And here´s a stunning silk and lace scarlet evening gown.

Mary: Wow! I’ll try it on this minute. Hey! It doesn’t fit. It’s not my size.

Tom: Oh, Mary! Of course it is your size! You have to unzip the zipper first. Look, here it is. Now, what does the mirror say?

Mary: Oh! Oh, wow! Yes, that looks good! Is that really me?

Tom: You’re a beauty, baby, and that dress knows it. So will everyone else.


Lily is in the fitting room of a boutique. She needs to buy a dress for her cousin Rachel’s wedding. Her grandmother Susie is helping her choose one.

Lili está en el probador de una boutique. Necesita un vestido para la boda de su prima Raquel. Su abuela Susana le está ayudando a escoger uno.

Lily: How many dresses do I have to try on?

Susie: Three short cocktail dresses and an evening gown with a lovely long skirt.

Lily: This pink one is for me? I hate pink! It’s a silly color.

Susie: It is not. This shade of pink is lovely. And it’s a very romantic color.

Lily: I’m not trying that dress on. Hand me the white one.

Susie: Is it white? Yes, it is. I thought it was beige. I can’t see anything with this light. You needn’t try this dress on. It’s not nice to wear white to a wedding. That color is reserved for the bride.

Lily: Ok, I don’t want to compete with Rachel on her wedding day. Let me try the black dress on.

Susie: Black? I thought it was purple! Black isn’t the right color for a wedding. It’s best to wear bright or pastel colors.

Lily: But the wedding is in the evening. It’s ok to wear black to a wedding if it’s in the evening. Oh, heck! It doesn’t fit! It’s too small. It´s size 38 and my size is 40.

Susie: Why don’t you try on the lilac evening gown? I’ll see if they have the black dress in size 40.

Lily: This dress is too long. I’m not very tall. I’ll catch my heel in the hem and tear the seam.

Susie: I’ll ask the shop assistant if they can fix it.


Megan put her new sweater in the washing machine and something went wrong.

Margarita metió su jersey nuevo en la lavadora y algo ha ido mal.

Megan: Oh, my gosh! What have I done? My blue sweater has shrunk! It’s several sizes smaller than it was and now I can’t wear it!

Meggy: Hey, Mummy! Why don’t you give it to me?

Megan: Oh, Meggy! I don’t think it will fit you! It looks to small even for you!

Meggy: I don’t want it for myself. I want it for my doll.


Julia has a blind date but she doesn’t know what to wear to it. Her friend Penny is helping her choose the right clothes.

Julia tiene una cita a ciegas pero no sabe que ponerse. Su amiga Penny la está ayudando a elegir la ropa adecuada.

Julia: Should I wear my new designer jeans or a mini skirt?

Penny: I like your blue mini skirt.

Julia: But it’s too short. I don’t feel comfortable with it when I’m with someone I don’t know very well.

Penny: Well, wear the new jeans then.

Julia: I think they make my ass look big. Do they?

Penny: No! You look great. They’re black. Black makes people look slimmer.

Julia: I bought a white blouse to wear with it, but I think the neckline is too low. And it's quite transparent. My bra will show.

Penny: You can wear a top under it.

Julia: No, I think I’ll wear my green blouse. Do you think it’s too tight?

Penny: Tight? I think it’s not tight enough. Isn’t it big for you?

Julia: No! Not that green shirt! That's my father's.This green blouse!


Daniel has gone Gothic. But he's afraid to leave the house because his father is sitting in the living room and he is not going to like Daniel’s new look when he sees it.

Daniel se ha vuelto gótico. Pero no se atreve a salir de casa porque su padre está sentado en el salón y no le va a gustar la nueva imagen de Daniel cuando la vea.

Peter: What is this? Who are you? What are you doing in my house?

Daniel: It’s me, Dad. I just have a new image!

Peter: Where do you think you are going dressed like that? Is it Halloween?

Daniel: I’m going to a concert.

Peter: With your face painted black and white? You’ll smudge everything you touch.

Daniel: Don’t be silly, Dad. I know what I’m doing.

Peter: What did you do to your teeth?

Daniel: I had the dentist fix them.

Peter: I paid the dentist to turn my son into a vampire?

Daniel: You've made me very happy, Dad. Thank you. Do you like my antique frock coat and my cool cloak?

Peter: What I'd like is to strangle you with the purple scarf round your neck.
But here's a hundred pounds. Take a taxi to and from wherever you are going. Try to come back alive.

Daniel: I'm the danger, Dad.
