It was created by Scott Frank and Allan Scott and released on Netflix on October 23, 2020.
The Queen's Gambit
The Queen's Gambit is a fictional story that follows the life of an orphan chess prodigy, Beth Harmon (Anya Taylor-Joy), during her quest to become the world's greatest chess player while struggling with emotional issues and drug and alcohol dependency. The story begins in the mid-1950s and proceeds into the 1960s.
The series starts in a girls' orphanage where a nine-year old Beth, having lost her mother in a car accident, meets Jolene (Moses Ingram), a vibrant and friendly girl a few years older than her; Helen Deardorff (Christiane Seidel), the woman running the orphanage; and Mr. Shaibel (Bill Camp), the custodian of the orphanage, who teaches Beth her first chess lessons. As was common during the 1950s, the orphanage dispenses daily tranquilizer pills to the girls, which turns into an addiction for Beth. A few years later, Beth is adopted by Alma Wheatley (Marielle Heller) and her husband from Lexington, Kentucky. After being adopted and adjusting to her new home, Beth enrolls herself in chess tournaments even though she has no prior experience. She wins many games and finally gets noticed by others and develops friendships with several people, including former Kentucky state champion Harry Beltik (Harry Melling), chess savant Benny Watts (Thomas Brodie-Sangster), and Townes (Jacob Fortune-Lloyd). As Beth continues to win games and reaps the financial benefits of her success, she becomes more dependent on drugs and alcohol, and starts to lose control of her life.

The final resultAlso here there are different variations and different tricks, habits, tastes that brings to different results in the preparation of this recipe. And also here I'll show you my mother's version, made possible with the help of my aunt, my mother's sister.
Work in progress...The stew is one of them, but there are other recipes that I will prepare and show on here.
What is very good about this dish is that once the spezzatino is ready, you can let it cool off and put it in the freezer. When you'll want to taste the spezzatino again, it will be enough to take it out of the freezer, defrost it and cook it for another little bit... Not only the flavour will remain the same, but the further cooking will make it even tastier. Do NOT freeze the potatoes though, only the meat.
This happened to me quite often when I used to live on my own : my mum would prepare dishes like this and stuff my freezer with them. That would give me weeks of autonomy from fast foods and chinese take away restaurants.

By 1976, Steve Jobs had convinced the product designer Jerry Manock (who had formerly worked at Hewlett Packard designing calculators) to create the "shell" for the Apple II—a smooth case inspired by kitchen appliances that concealed the internal mechanics.[5] The earliest Apple II's were assembled in Silicon Valley, and later in Texas;[8] printed circuit boards were manufactured in Ireland and Singapore. The first computers went on sale on June 10, 1977[9][10] with a MOS Technology 6502 microprocessor running at 1.022,727 MHz (2⁄7 of the NTSC color carrier), two game paddles[11] (bundled until 1980, when they were found to violate FCC regulations),[12] 4 KiB of RAM, an audio cassette interface for loading programs and storing data, and the Integer BASIC programming language built into the ROMs.
