language lessons
In my last French class, I learned all about la réciprocité (example; Nicolas Sarkozy déteste Ségolène Royal. Ségolène Royal déteste Nicolas Sarkozy. Nicolas et Ségolène se detestent). Interesting, no? Sure. But let’s take a look at what The Husband is listening to on his English language lesson CD: (Please note: This is an advanced English CD…

style: birthday addition
Not only did Linda from oeke design blog pass on the Stylish Blogger Award to me (many thanks Linda) she updated the award badge to this round, fun, fuchsia, button you see before you. Very snazzy. And since I just did one of these (I’m truly blessed with the style) and because it’s my birthday (a couple…

And I’m not talking about one of those modern super sleek airstream things either. And did you know that Gypsies (my Gypsies anyway) speak loudly? Well they do.…

A thousand thanks to Biscuit from And They Lived Happily Ever After. Biscuit has kindly passing on this award to me. And can I say, I love the name of Biscuit’s blog. I’m going to let you in on a little secret, every time I make a wish for something, like blowing candles out, or throwing a penny…

A Brazilian Holiday
No, The Husband and I aren’t headed to Brazil, but me and all of you are taking a little trip down south (way down south) to Rio via American expat Rachel from Rachel’s Rantings in Rio de Janeiro. Since Brazil’s summer is in full swing, I thought it would be nice for all of us…
