What is the 25th Wedding Anniversary?

The tradition of giving anniversary gifts relating to the number of years married seems to have originated from Germanic Middle Ages tradition. Wealthy husbands were known to give their wife a silver wreath after 25 years of marriage, while 50 years was commemorated by a wreath of gold.

During holidays everybody tends to go out and have fun. We plan on going out for parties, vacations and eat whatever food is offered. But is it healthy? Are you looking out for yourself? This holiday fitness is to create a plan for your body.

Before I chose to get a dog, I wanted to learn more about their grooming needs. After all, this is one of the crucial factors to consider, especially if you want a dog that doesn’t shed as much. That’s why I wondered, do Huskies shed more than German Shepherds?

The Battle for Christmas

I hope you read our Christmas article on the GraceLife Blog yesterday. It’s called The True Meaning of Christmas. Here’s how it started –

“Christmas is not about gifts and toys and eating lots of food with family and friends.”

Christians are in a battle for the true meaning of Christmas. I mean that. A real battle.

Here’s why I say that.

Reclaimed Brick tiles are a beautiful way to add character to any setting. Whether you have an old period property or modern commercial space; brick tiles can complement the room. Due to their hard-wearing nature they can be used in any room including kitchens, hallways and outside patio areas.

Why Is It Necessary to Maintain Pond?

We are aware of the fact that keeping a pond in good condition is exhausting as compared to building it. Here, I'd like to share my personal struggle. At the point I had at last set my pond, I felt I could simply take a seat and make the most of its advantages without spending extra energy or cash on it. However, I wasn't right! I wasn't aware that it was the start of difficult maintenance work.

This is the reason; I decided to talk about the... Читать дальше...

Holidays are a great time to spend time with friends, families, and kids, indulging in celebration, filled with delicious feasts, cookies, desserts, and traditional candies. If you embrace the holiday tips for children with diabetes then you are on a safer side.

Moments after Wizkid appeared to have blasted Biodun Fatoyinbo of Commomwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) popular blogger Linda Ikeji has attacked the award-winning star for describing him as “fake pastor”.

I've been on the road in Portland, Oregon the past few days, so I haven't had the chance to post my weekly link to The Adventure Podcast. That's particularly troublesome, since this was one of our best episodes yet. This week, we welcomed writer, singer, entrepreneur, and world traveler Jonny Bealby of Wild Frontiers Travel to the show. Jonny recently visited his 100th country and penned a story called "100 Countries, 100 Lessons Learned" to share some insight from the places that he's been. In the interview... Читать дальше...

Award-winning pop star, Davido is capping off the year with the video for “Sweet in the Middle,” a track off his recently released album, “ A Good Time”, Naijaparry News reports.

Think Rajasthan and it immediately conjures images of forts, palaces and royal heritage.   Originally built as a mechanism of defence, the state has many forts that are not only beautiful but also historically very significant.

Marriage Story is one of my favorite films of the year. Allow me to explain why.

This is a strange adaptation of Conrad’s novella that appeared on the CBS anthology series, Playhouse 90, in 1958. Boris Karloff is trader Kurtz; he ‘goes native’ while amassing ivory. Roddy McDowall is his adopted son, Marlow, who has become a Buddhist, and fights his desire for his sister. Eartha Kitt is Kurtz’s African mistress, who gets killed by other Africans. The pilgrims have been compressed into a single minister.
Kurtz is still crazy. He enters late in the play, as he does in the novella... Читать дальше...

Matthew 1:18-25

Matthew tells us the story of the birth of Jesus from Joseph’s perspective (Luke tells us the story from Mary’s perspective)
It must have been difficult for Joseph. He was engaged to Mary. It was probably an arranged marriage. But they weren’t yet married and they were not yet living together. And then Mary tells him that she is pregnant. She may have told him about the message of the angel – but he probably had been unable to listen to her. He will have felt angry, let down and humiliated. Читать дальше...

True friends are true treasures - they like you as you are, are there for you through the good and bad times, and you bring out the best in each other. But just like family, co-workers and bosses, not all friends are created equal, and rather than lifting you up, some can leave you feeling confused and a little worse off after being around them. If you've ever experienced the latter, you may ...

Remember the time Trump tweeted "Covfefe"? and it created a stir because no one knew what "Covfefe" was? Trump tweeted again at 6:09 am: "Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy!" and the original tweet was removed.

 People were confused. Lots of way out guesses.

But some people know about World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (WWE) and that Trump is a WWE Hall of Famer.. Let's add in that not only is Trump an actor, he's a reality show star.
