ugly socks and asparagus. Mitjons lletjos i esparracs

From oreneta aground, 1 month ago, Similar articles

I think that these are truly ugly socks.  Maybe the ugliest I have ever owned, but they are thin and they wick and they keep my feet comfy in the heat....especially since my boots are silver lined so that they reflect radiant heat.  A lovely feature when it's cold out.  Sadly, this is Spain.Crec que aquests són mitjons molt lletjos.  Potser els mes lletjos que mai he tingut, però són prim, i evacua la sua...per això els meus peus no es bullen quan fa calor, a més que...

Happy Austerity Valentine's Day

Happy Austerity Valentine's Day

From Africa Expat Wives Club, 1 month ago, Similar articles

Our wedding anniversary is the day before valentine's, so I have my roses already - lucky me!  My husband swerved into the shopping centre on the way back from collecting our daughter from school yesterday evening.  He bought fab flowers with roses, lilies and swirly silver painted sticks - all set into oasis - which my daughter had to then balance on her knee for the rest of the way home.  I wondered what was taking them so long.  Meanwhile, I scribbled my husband a...

The Bangle Shop

From Blogpourri, 1 month ago, Similar articles

Long, long ago, in villages and towns across India, the 'bangle man' roamed the streets. A cloth knapsack slung on his shoulders, he called out his wares - glass bangles in resplendent colors, some plain, some decorated with gold or silver paint - and made the rounds of his beat perhaps once a month, but more frequently during the marriage or festival seasons.Inside the knapsack - fashioned out of a large cotton cloth whose four ends were knotted together - the bangles would be strung on long...

Lots of rain in Cyprus... and lots of mosquitoes too

Lots of rain in Cyprus... and lots of mosquitoes too

From This is Cyprus, 1 month ago, Similar articles

Every cloud, as they say, has a silver lining. And sometimes it seems as if the reverse is true. We've had one of the wettest winters I can remember in Cyprus, in the past couple of months. Oh, there has been plenty of sunshine, and the daytime temperatures haven't been TOO cold. We keep having a week or two when it's mostly dry and sunny, then out of the blue, yet more rain. Today it came on to pour just after lunch. For about five minutes, it was absolutely torrential, and even included...

Herbed Chèvre

Herbed Chèvre

From Chez Loulou, 5 month ago, Similar articles

You didn't think that I would share a bunch of fabulous nibbles and snacks recipes without including at least one that was made almost entirely of cheese, now did you' About 15 years ago I tried this recipe from The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook by Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins (I love these ladies!), and it became an instant favorite. It is super rich and flavorful, and is always one of the first things to disappear when served at a party or an apéro dînatoire. Herbed...
