The most link wonderful detail on the prototype of the watch is the very subtle Eastern Arabic numerals in the chapter ring and a moonphase as viewed from the Southern Hemisphere. The moonphase is a nod to his Brazilian heritage and the moon as seen in his father's home country. Five years ago Pikullik converted to Islam, which is why link he customized his watch this way – though anyone can order theirs in link a variety of numerals.

The modern baguette cut was introduced by Cartier in 1912. And, in the following link decades, jewelry designers of the Art Deco period employed this type of stone-cutting to emphasize clean link lines and geometric shapes.

We climb link through a small hillside link village, overtaking an amateur cyclist who is link visibly excited about this rare moment to ride alongside professionals. "Venga venga!" calls out head coach Sebastian Deckert from the driver's seat of the C-Class team car as the rider struggles to keep up. Less than 100 meters later, he's cracked. He fades back into the valley.

Hmm. Well. Not impressed. I have to say these would be much nicer with more fresh seasoning and without the totally unnecessary breadcrumbs and egg. Squeeze the liquid from the onion before mixing, grate fresh garlic and amp up the flavours. Was really disappointed, won’t be using this recipe again Shereen!
