Hey ladies, can I tell you a secret? Promise you won't tell anyone?!

I watch The Bachelorette! :-O

Yup, that's right. This mom of three enjoys kicking back with a glass of wine and watching single gals and guys find love on The Bachelorette and The Bachelor. It's one of those little things that helps me unwind at the end of a long day.

I've been watching this season every single week and I was so excited to see JoJo Fletcher wearing Guria Beachwear! Being a huge fan of Guria swimsuits... Читать дальше...

Now that Summer is here, we're spending a lot more time outdoors as a family which - in turn - means that the children are spending their days being a lot more active than usual.   Alongside all of the usual summer fun activities such as days spent at the park, going on "adventures" (or "walks" as adults tend to refer to them!), visits to the beach and games of football, rounders and other sports - I've been trying to think of new ways to encourage my 3 year old to enjoy spending time outdoors. ...

Imagine yourself a kid at summer camp.
.

Perhaps it calls to mind bunk beds with flimsy mattresses. Potato sack races and three-legged races and racing around at dusk playing hide-and-seek. Scratching mosquito bites, catching fireflies, watching sparks swirl up from a fire into the night sky. A night sky so black and stars so bright, it’s like you’d never seen them before. An escape from school and parents and all the baggage that entails; a chance to ...

Reports this evening suggest that Walsall Football Club have received and rejected a £250,000 bid from Sky Bet Championship side Rotherham United for top-scorer Tom Bradshaw, as the Welsh international continues to attract interest from clubs up and down the country.

Press Association reporter Nick Mashiter, formerly of the Express and Star writes; "Walsall have rejected a £250k bid from Rotherham for striker Tom Bradshaw. Expect Rotherham United to return so this one ...

Voting.   And then dealing all the resultant emotions from the result.

My focus on my littlest one swimming was unusually directed to the diving board.

I know, it’s been ages and ages since I’ve posted. But this recipe blew me and got me motivated to write, because you *must* try it ASAP! Perfect for summer, with fresh picked strawberries, and the best, creamiest vegan ice cream I have made so far, after numerous other trials. Not only that, it’s SO easy, no heating and waiting, just put everything into your Vitamix and go. WIN!

The "long weekend" is getting underway, with baby steps.

Yesterday the Ministerial Legislative Committee approved the start of the long weekend, Passing in the legislative committee means chances are extremely high that it will pass in the Knesset voting, but we should not get ahead of ourselves.

According to the first stage that is being approved now, the long weekends (ie. Sundays as a vacation day) are being scheduled for days that most people would likely take off anyway - 2... Читать дальше...

יש גם חריגים: בשבת האחרונה התארחה קבוצת בחורים מישיבת מיר בבסיס "פלס נח"ל" בבקעת הירדן, בו מתאמנים חיילים חרדים. pic.twitter.com/itzPtbyNQz — יעקב אמסלם (@Yaakov_Amsalem) June 26, 2016

Amsalem calls them the exceptions. Maybe he is right and they are, or maybe he is wrong and they are not. Either way, Amsalem says a group of yeshiva bochurim from the Mir Yeshiva staye das guests for Shabbos on the army base  of Nahal Haredi, and attaches a picture to that effect..

This weekend Marc and I went to Concord for its annual street festival. It’s always a lot of fun. We got to see tons of crafts and taste food from around the world while working on our daily 10K step count. Win, win, win.

Once upon a time, long before Panama had its canal or a train, a road ran through the Panamanian jungle. This was not just any road, however. It was the lifeline that connected Panama City, on the Pacific coast, with its Caribbean trading partner, Portobelo. This historic road came to be known as El Camino Real de Panama, and it still exists today.

Plot: In 2028 Detroit, when Alex Murphy – a loving husband, father and good cop – is critically injured in the line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer.

In the depths of Bruniquel Cave, France, lie an enigmatic series of circles. They are made from stalagmites, on which a residue accumulated since they were placed. Radiometric dating this coating revealed these circles predated the arrival of modern humans in France. Clearly, Neanderthals must have made them.

This is a rough category. So many great performances being swept to the wayside. I’m not sure that the smartest decision for The People VS OJ Simpson was to run both Gooding and Vance in the lead category. Vote splitting is bound to happen, which could cause both to lose out. It’s likely only one will get in. I’d say Vance has a slight edge over Gooding. Same goes for The Dresser, where both Hopkins and McKellan share top billing. Both are widely respected actors, and could be splitting their votes as well. Читать дальше...

Muah Chee the soft and chewy glutinous rice cake coated with peanut and  sugar... it was not my childhood favorite snack. I only get to try out this Asian snack when I was living in Singapore. My hubby loves this snack very much, I can remember we always buy it from a stall in Chinatown whenever we go there. 
I made Muah Chee years back using microwave method, it was very easy. This round I'm using the ...

The difference between my level of contempt for evil and my level of contempt for moral cowardice is so minuscule I probably couldn’t shove [a police collaborator’s] scruples between them.  – “Zurvivor”

About ten years ago I visited the ruins of Easton garden near Grantham in Lincolnshire. Easton has a long and illustrious history and had been home to fourteen generations of the Cholmeley family – until the house was pulled down in the 1950s to avoid death duties. For forty years the surrounding gardens all but disappeared beneath self-sown trees, brambles and nettles, while the family moved to live in a nearby village. I had been invited to Easton to hear plans for the garden’s future by Ursula Cholmeley... Читать дальше...

Wandering along Stratford High Street the other week I stopped to photograph this mosaic depicting a street seller.

Congrats! You’ve at last upgraded your CRT television to that new, multipurpose, High-definition LED/LCD/Plasma screen. But you must accept, without a proper TV unit, it isn’t giving that desired ambiance to your living area. Though you can easily hang or fix that big screen to the seating area opposite wall, a wooden TV unit will give an unprecedented aura of style and luxury to your living room.

Apart from embellishing your ...
