Friday a ay, a ay , a ay

TGIF!!!!

Even though my school days are long gone, I still get that "feeling" every Friday. You know the one - potent combo of excited anticipation, great expectations and unprovoked bubbling optimism. Like anything could happen, like everything could happen! Blue skies and office hours don't help either.... Being a responsible, very reasonable grown up in a lasting loving relationship, one would expect everything but that Friday vibe. However (one of the greatest linguistic marvels that word - however) vibe is still there, and in force. Some might say it's not a bad thing, and I suppose it isn't, but it is definitely bit peculiar, especially as my weekends usually don't hold any major excitements/surprises and more often then not follow this pattern - plenty of sleep, big clean up, chance to read in piece and watch morning TV. And I love my weekends, I love them all, they are mine and to me - lovely. But sometimes even I must say - wow, what...a....thrill.... :)

Deeefffffyyyiiinnngggg Gravity

Happened to me just recently, as the big three o is just over a year away, started to notice that all kinds of unpleasantries starting to pop their lil heads up.
Can't say it happened over night, just that the realisation was sudden, undeniable and brutal. What is one to do? Buying anti aging cream is a start, quit smoking - an idea, exercise more, plenty of water, Vitamin E and all the other healthy bla blas.......
That's all fine and oh so reasonable, but once wheel starts rolling downhill (and I mean literally) theres no stopping it - I call it Humpty Dumpty Effect, and don't we all know how he ended up.
Sure, it's always worth a try defying gravity, just don't stop having fun along the way. Off to get my healthy 8h of pure zzzz, so much for "having fun along the way" but that's a whole new story...

Humous

Aaaaahhh.... Whoever invented this truly wonderful condiment deserves a praise. Not just that it's good for you, its also very yummy/scrummy etc etc. And very versatile too... Comes in many different flavours without suffering identity crisis along the way. Always staying true to itself. Gets along great with carrots, celery, spring onions, peppers... and of course it has eternal, everlasting passionate love affair with fresh...crusty bread...mmmm getting hungry just thinking about it. It's what I call Innocent and character nourishing food - you can eat as much as you like while feeling good about yourself, without the usual guilt trip. This is a rare quality, especially in this world so overloaded with preservatives, E No's, saturated fats etc etc... not that any of these ever stopped me from grazing like a Happy/hungry/chok+fat deprived animal...
