Air Traffic Controller - You Know Me (Lyric Video) (by Air Traffic Controller)
“This is a risk we’re taking. It’s a love in the making. We’ve got nothing up our sleeves. We’ve got an understanding I don’t think we could have planned it better. // I think you can make me better, I’m walking on air but I’ll never regret anything that helped me see”

If grandmothers around the world had a rallying cry, it would probably sound something like “You need to eat!”
Photographer Gabriele Galimberti’s grandmother said something similar to him before one of his many globetrotting work trips. To ensure he had at least one good meal, she prepared for him a dish of ravioli before he departed on one of his adventures.
“In that occasion I said to my grandma ‘You know, Grandma, there are many other grandmas around the world and most of them are really good cooks,” Galimberti wrote via email. “I’m going to meet them and ask them to cook for me so I can show you that you don’t have to be worried for me and the food that I will eat!’ This is the way my project was born!”
The project, “Delicatessen With Love”, took Galimberti to 58 countries where he photographed grandmothers with both the ingredients and finished signature dishes.
He acted as photographer and stylist during each shoot with the grandmothers, taking a portrait of both the women and the food they made for him.

MINNESOTA SENATE VOTES TO LEGALIZE GAY MARRIAGE

Great news!
You can learn a lot about people from the stories they tell, but you can also know them from the way they sing along, whether they like the windows up or down, if they live by the map or by the world, if they feel the pull of the ocean.

I LOVED Rick Reilly’s Sports Illustrated columns as a kid. I’d religiously read them every week. Major point of father-daughter bonding.
