Another Valentine's Day over. No presents, cards, flowers etc. No Valentine. Cupid has been unsuccessful with his arrow....or is on strike in my love life
I failed to celebrate Chinese New Year - fairly difficult when I don't like Chinese food so that rules out eat Chinese food or going for a Chinese meal..How else could I celebrate????????
Pancake day in two days. I'll try and probably fail to make pancakes...But least I quality for this holiday. I don't need to be relationship or like Chinese food...

8th Feb - Valentine's Day fast approaching! I'm sick of it already!
I don't have a special person this year....I wont get flowers, chocolates, some kind of heart/love related gift
I keep getting emails about valentine's day meals and presents - just leave me alone
When I have significant other/special person/lovely boyfriend - we are gonna celebrate the crap out valentine's day! But this year - it's a material holiday created by card shops to make money

An apple a day keeps the doctor away...
I'm sure you've heard that before.
On my healthy kick I'm trying to get 5 fruit or veg a day which is a never ending challenge I'll tell you! I'm eating an apple a day....So I thought I'd look for some other sayings and quotes bout food...

(credit - quotegarden.com/food)

Sex is good, but not as good as fresh, sweetcorn --- I'd rate sweetcorn as one of top 5 vegetables but comparing it to sex....I've never seen calenders of naked vegetables

All happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast - This I can agree with. Breakfast/Brunch my favourite meal of the day. Toast, crumpets, a full english, cereal, pancakes, smoked salmon, bagels, yoghurt and fruit.... Now I know there is bacon in a full english but it needs to be said again - bacon is the reason I have a lot of respect for our four legged oinking friends

A bagel is a doughnut with the sin removed - So true, although I do love a doughtnut - Jam, sugar...what else do you need from a bakery snack???

I will not eat oysters - I want my food dead - not sick, not wounded - dead ( Woody Allen)
Couldn't have said it better myself...

The trouble with eating Italian food is that five or six days later you're hungry again (George Miller) I love italian food it's my favourite - the only way I can improve it is a nice italian stallion can rock on his little Vespa and cook up a storm ...in the kitchen of course.

Quote of the Day:

"Live it up, drink it down, laugh it off, avoid the bulls**t, take chances & never have regrets, because at one point, everything you did was exactly what you wanted."
It's the weekend hurray!
Mine is filled with food shopping, washing and work - not so fun.
I'm on a healthy kick have been since the 25th Jan, after all christmas chocolates and treats had been eaten to avoid the tempation of a major binge.
I seem to be doing quite well...Although last night I had some jelly beans, a small kit kat and 2 chocolate biscuits....Oh well I only live once. I can't live my life just eating celery sticks and salad.... I love chocolate, cake, pizza, pasta and just lots and lots of other yummy things. I couldn't have a birthday with a cake - a note for those who plan me a birthday - I don't care what the party is - if there isnt a cake -see ya! A romantic meal for two, christmas dinner with the family....maybe holidays and special events involve food - restricting myself to only good stuff is just plain dull!

It's been one of those days - can't actually be bothered to care. Just want to watch tv, listen music and chat about utter crap.
Got home today - two guys got in the lift to the first floor - i chucked them a judging glance...
I don't like sharing lifts with people I don't know - what happens if you get stuck?! I might be focused to make conversation with them. If they have B.O I don't wanna be stuck in a small space for a hour or two - I'd have to say something or I've have to look in my mary poppins bag for some kind of smell to cover it, I'm sure the only things I carry that smell are pens and cherry lip balm - so I would be focused to dance around the lift wafting cherry ink smell. They would smell of B.O but mostly likely judge me as a crazy bitch - total fruit loop. We'd then turn to the conversation strangers make - maybe about the weather how hot/cold it is, maybe we'll comment about a lift poster, then we'd judge things 'this building is never the same as it use to be' kind thing and then we'd join together in a chorus of 'how long is this going to take' 'what are they?!'

The first post of a new blog.

Love at first sight is easy to understand.
It's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.
by Amy Bloom
My quote for the month from my desk calender, thought I'd share.

I'm watching Ugly Betty - apparently blogs are for bitching and venting....Oh goody!

I'm struggling to write this morning, but it's before 9.... apparently my brain has opening times.
If only I was a coffee drinker - it would solve this problem. However humble little self enjoys a nice 'cuppa tea' and as the saying goes tea solves everything - I don't think I'll be suggesting it as a real cure for problems though - I'm sure someone in Haiti isn't going to helped by a cup of tea unless it's a money full of mug and their life back to normal.
