Saturday, March 8th, 2008Five Monkeys - An Interesting Experiment
I came across this some time ago and thought I share it on here. I am sure it will make you think. Very interesting experiment.

Friday, March 7th, 2008Painful Days, Sleepless Nights - Is this Ever Going to Stop?
I am done in!
I went to bed just after midnight and again, (like most nights), woke up tossing and turning with pains under my right heel (creeping up to my knee), getting worse throughout the night. By about 3 AM I just couldn’t take it […]
The Bigger Picture - What Does That Mean to You?
Thursday, March 6th, 2008The Bigger Picture - What Does That Mean?

French Cuisine - Seductive, Beautiful and Light
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008French Cuisine - Seductive, Beautiful and Light

They are healthy… beautiful… balanced… I guess just like good art. Or maybe it is the geographical position, therefore the temperate climate… exceptional […]
The Wooden Bowl | Sometimes Grandfather Had a Tear in His Eye
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008The Wooden Bowl | Sometimes Grandfather Had a Tear in His Eye
The story below reminds me once again of how remarkable perspective children are.

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in law and four-year - old grandson.
