<br />
The last 18 months of my life have certainly had their good moments, but also I have had the worst art and career months ever.<br />
<br />
In September 2012, someone or 'someones' stole over 50 of my paintings and 6 shelves of great art books from a locked building on Hamilton St in Allentown, PA. Art books, cookbooks, personal journals, French books ... some of them 1st editions signed by the authors - including 'Mary Cassatt • A Life' ... and many of them were gifts to me. As you can see, I've stopped my painting, blogging ... and my 'joie de vivre' has been seriously impacted.<br />
<br />
Please check my website to see just some of the stolen paintings. <br />
<br />
IF you have any information on the whereabouts of my paintings and/or books, please call the Allentown Police Department ... and me. I will gratefully paint you something to your liking as a reward.<br />
<br />
Sincerely ~<br />
<br />
Ann<br />
<br />
Ann Elizabeth Schlegel<br />

Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. While liquid is simmering, peel pears, leaving stem intact and being careful not to blemish the flesh of the pears.<br /><br />Slice 1/2-inch off the bottom of the pears to create a flat bottom. Gently place pears in poaching liquid, cover, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes to ensure even color, until pears are cooked but still firm.<br /><br />Remove saucepan from flame, uncover and cool with pears upright in pan. Once cool, cover and chill in refrigerator at least 3 hours or up to 24 hours, turning occasionally, if desired.<br /><br />Gently remove pears from liquid and allow to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, reduce liquid by about half over a medium-high flame for 15 minutes, until liquid is thicker and slightly syrupy. Remove from flame and let liquid come to room temperature. Drizzle each pear with 2 tablespoons syrup and serve. </div><div style="text-align: left;" class="rm-block"><div class="instructions"><p class="instruction"></p> </div> </div><div style="text-align: left;"> <p style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0); text-align: left;font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);"><a style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" href="http://www.annelizabethschlegel.com/" target="_blank"">www.annelizabethschlegel.com</a><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >If you visit my comprehensive website, click on 'site map' (under my name on the left panel) and you can see all of the Painting Each Day paintings at one time.</span><br /><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">If you would like to purchase a 6" x 6" oil painting on stretched canvas that you see on this site, or commission a painting that is special to y</span></span><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">ou, please email me.</span></span> </p><p style="text-align: left;font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >These paintings are priced at $100.00 plus s/h.</span><br /></p> <p style="font-family: trebuchet ms; text-align: left;"><a href="mailto:info@annelizabethschlegel.com">info@annelizabethschlegel.com</a></p> <div style="text-align: left;"><a style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" href="http://www.annelizabethschlegel.com/" target="_blank">www.annelizabethschlegel.com</a><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" ><span id="_ctl0__ctl1_lblAnswer"><p><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);">Thank You!</span></span></span></p><p style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style=";font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" ><span id="_ctl0__ctl1_lblAnswer"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-size:100%;">If you have found this entry through a search engine and would like to see the complete Painting Each Day blog, just click on PAINTING EACH DAY at the top of this page</span></span></span></span></p></span></span></div></div></div>PaintingEachDayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05869801763157013770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594688.post-18062677627571525272011-11-03T18:13:00.006-04:002011-11-07T08:23:25.580-05:00Pear<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicZ92F5sJfwpGdgYbrDrBFIUSYNX6DBBuFMcKtWmZUrlhG-k0WILhQfdwM2PCxyxyv7udMqyVXBVW0cC0D5XyxZD2CoHTlQI-KShovNyTs2htB4XlbGktRQAF7xCJXFPUo7Qe90g/s1600/PearLR.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicZ92F5sJfwpGdgYbrDrBFIUSYNX6DBBuFMcKtWmZUrlhG-k0WILhQfdwM2PCxyxyv7udMqyVXBVW0cC0D5XyxZD2CoHTlQI-KShovNyTs2htB4XlbGktRQAF7xCJXFPUo7Qe90g/s400/PearLR.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5670896220048468674" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Pear</span> <span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" ><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">• this painting is sold</span></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >Continuing with my<span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" > </span></span><span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" >'hommage à France'</span><span style="font-size:100%;"></span><h6 style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(204, 102, 0); font-weight: normal;" class="uiStreamMessage" ft="{"type":1}"> </h6><span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;" > Here is yet another pear.

It has been used as a spa since Roman times. Local doctor Louis Perrier bought the spring in 1898 and operated a commercial spa there; he also bottled the water for sale. He later sold the spring to Sir Saint-John Harmsworth, a wealthy British visitor.<br /><br />Harmsworth was the younger brother of the newspaper magnates Lord Northcliffe and Lord Rothermere. He had come to France to learn the language. Dr. Perrier showed him the spring, and he decided to buy it. He sold his share of the family newspapers to raise the money. Harmsworth closed the spa, as spas were becoming unfashionable. He renamed the spring Source Perrier and started bottling the water in distinctive green bottles.

How wonderful those times must have been ... to sit across from the park, set up the card table, play some Bridge and enjoy. I still wish that I lived in that beautiful home ... where my Father and Aunt Betty were born ...</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">When Hess' Department store closed its doors (then The BonTon) several years ago, my brothers and sisters and I visited 'The Patio' on its last day ... and we sipped Old Fashioneds ... what a great drink ! Those people really knew how to enjoy themselves back in the day. And, I enjoy the taste of Bourbon too so .... maybe tonight on my way home I'll stop at Pistachio Bar and Grille (where my cocktail paintings hang) and treat myself to an Old Fashioned and think of Grandma.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">Thank You Angostura !!

It was the first time Americans had access to the delicate French fromage. Ile de France takes its name from the famous ship and continues to supply authentic French Brie to American cheese lovers.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);font-family:trebuchet ms;" >The Ile de France Ocean Liner</span> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">The SS Ile de France was a French ocean liner built in Saint-Nazaire, France for the Compagnie Générale Transatlantique (CGT). Known to cheese lovers as the first ship to carry Brie Cheese to the United States (it also was the first ship ever equipped with refrigeration) it had a long and illustrious story beyond its role in the history of fromage. </p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">The first major ocean liner built after World War I, it is often considered the most beautifully decorated ship ever built by the CGT and was the first ocean liner decorated entirely in the Art Deco style.</p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">The Ile de France was launched in 1926 at the Penhoët shipyard and was greeted by thousands of government officials as well as workers, journalists and French citizens.</p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">In 1927, the Ile de France traveled from Le Havre for its maiden voyage to New York, where it received great attention from American media. A crowd of thousands congregated at the docks to see it. </p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">Later, the ship served members of the American and British military after being converted to a troop ship in 1941. It would serve the Allied interests until September 1945. </p> <p style="text-align: center; color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;"><img style="width: 398px; height: 149px;" src="http://iledefrancecheese.com/image/0908/1_liner.jpg" /></p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">In 1947, it was returned to France and underwent a two-year reconstruction to once again become a luxury passenger ship. It played a major role in a 1956 rescue operation after a collision between two other passenger liners near Nantucket.

Driven by the belief that there was a growing consumer market for high-quality, fresh-tasting, Latino foods, the Unanues infused their personal philosophy throughout the company. This commitment to excellence is the cornerstone of Goya's popular credo, "If it's Goya, it has to be good". The result of this simple, yet deeply resonant pledge is the evolution of Goya Foods into a leader in the Latin American food industry, with operations spanning the globe.<br /><br />Chicken Breasts in Caper Cream Sauce<br /><div class="ingredients" style="margin-top: 10px;"> <h3> Ingredients</h3> <ul><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon lemon pepper</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon salt</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon dried dill weed</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon garlic powder</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 3 tablespoons butter</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1/2 cup whipping cream</li><li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 2 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed</li></ul> </div> <div style="border-top: 1px dotted rgb(204, 204, 204); width: 300px; margin-top: 20px;"> </div> <div class="directions" style="margin-top: 10px;"> <h3> Directions</h3> <ol><li><span class="plaincharacterwrap break"> Season chicken breasts with lemon pepper, salt, dill weed, and garlic powder. </span></li><li><span class="plaincharacterwrap break"> Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

They make very nice and personal gifts ... and the holidays will be here before you know it.<br /><br />If you're a little short on ideas, check out my website where you can view many, many of the Painting Each Day paintings.<br /></span><br /><a style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" href="http://www.annelizabethschlegel.com/" target="_blank"">www.annelizabethschlegel.com</a><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">If you visit my comprehensive website, click on 'site map' (under my name on the left panel) and you can see all of the Painting Each Day paintings at one time.</span><br /><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">If you would like to purchase a 6" x 6" oil painting on stretched canvas that you see on this site, or commission a painting that is special to y</span></span><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">ou, please email me.</span></span> <p style="text-align: left; font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span></span><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255); font-family: trebuchet ms;">These paintings are priced at $100.00 plus s/h.</span><br /></p> <p style="font-family: trebuchet ms; text-align: left;"><a href="mailto:info@annelizabethschlegel.com">info@annelizabethschlegel.com</a></p> <a style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" href="http://www.annelizabethschlegel.com/" target="_blank">www.annelizabethschlegel.com</a><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: trebuchet ms; font-size: 100%;"><span id="_ctl0__ctl1_lblAnswer"><p><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);">Thank You!</span></span></span></p><p style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; font-size: 100%;"><span id="_ctl0__ctl1_lblAnswer"><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-size: 100%;">If you have found this entry through a search engine and would like to see the complete Painting Each Day blog, just click on PAINTING EACH DAY at the top of this page</span></span></span></span></p></span></span>PaintingEachDayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05869801763157013770noreply@blogger.com0
