Cansas died on June 28th. His illness was too serious, too desperate. Walking joyfully on the grass, with anaesthetized legs, feeling pain no longer, he grazed before going to sleep forever. http://www.100chevaux.org/decescansas.html But before arriving at 100 Horses on the Grass, Cansas suffered, as other animals suffer, only because their owners are people without a heart.
In order to save more horses, and because 100 Horses on the Grass can't welcome new horses every day, they have created an adoption plan for horses http://www.100chevaux.org/aadoptera.html who have had a hard life and need to continue to live, but to do so with happiness and love. Fast approaching is the date of 100 Horses on the Grass’ annual festivities on August 4th and 5th in Couvin, in southern Belgium. http://www.100chevaux.org/feteannuelle2.html

Generally speaking, when you think about seeds, you think about coming harvests of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and cereals. Ideas of planting, cultivation and abundance come to mind. One day, seeds become plants and trees, and artists express these forms, as you can see with these sculptures of Alain Maillard http://www.mailland.fr/html/menu_en.html

But sometimes, seeds accompany other images....

So, maybe, do you have "a little seed", it's means, you're a little bit crazy...or are you already "growing as a seed" if you're a young girl for whom years have gone by and yet no soul mate has been found.

To give you luck and prosperity, it is said that nothing is better that to keep pumpkin seeds in your purse. If you sow indigo-tree seeds, be sure that you put an odd number of seeds in each hole, otherwise....

Potato with sesame seeds (Til Alu)

250 grams peeled and boiled potatoes
1 cup of white sesame seeds
1-teaspoon curcuma
1-teaspoon oil
2 cayenne peppers
4 or 5 cloves of garlic
1/2-teaspoon fenugreek seeds
Salt: to your taste

Roast the seeds until they turn lightly brown. Use a mortal and pestle to crush into a paste the seeds, garlic, red pepper and a few drops of water. Warm the oil before adding the fenugreek seeds to fry. Add curcuma, then the sesame paste. Cook slowly, then, add the potatoes. Mix well. Eat cold with rice. This spicy hot dish comes from Nepal, where it's eaten as condiment.
