Yi la nourriture

From the definition of "hexagram 27": YI Nourishing, one of the 64 hexagrams of the Chinese I Ching or Book of Changes, I invent a sauce between China and Africa, whose main ingredient is the woman! Figment of my imagination, I'm walking in the markets, introducing myself in the cottage, going to meet the woman who feeds those around him through his daily actions. Spiritual wife who reads the future and guide you, woman who feeds his creative art as it is, cooking, calligraphy, music, maternal woman feeds across her breast, vegetable woman who feeds his crops: fruits and vegetables of various kinds, spices. Female, inspiration of a work. Female Ying complementary of Man Yang !
Hexagram 27 is a documentary, a culinary frenzy, a nod to the one that feeds me and sustains me even today, a woman !
