stiam ca am colinde.
si am gasit un caiet scris de mama mea
, am retrait copilaria mea si Ajunul Craciunului din tara,cand mergeam la colindat,dimineata devreme,prin omat ,veneam acasa si nr nucile,ne bateam-certam care a primit mai multe,casa mirosea a carnati si jumeri.
in seara de Ajun,am de gand sa merg la o prietena care nu are pe nimeni aici, sa o colindam.

Cit despre rochie dupa cum arata in poza daca ii dai minecile jos ramine o rochie decenta pt latin dances (parerea mea). Atentie insa, la banii astia s-ar putea cind o primesti acasa sa constati ca materialele nu arata ca in poza si nu e ce ti-ai inchipuit. Eu sint fripta cu asa ceva.
V-am spus? Am cumparat strivectin (in loc de La Mer). Va zic rezultate peste vreo luna.
Ramona J spune:
Oh, no! Monabella, cind te-ai dat cu McCain?
Daca ai folosit si La Mer sint curioasa cum e Strivectin. Peste o luna sint si eu ofilita de la aerul cald, asa ca sint curioasa care e mai buna.

Vad ca nici voi nu aveti somn! Ce faceti, fierbeti la sarmalute la ora asta?
Am vazut un cozonac super bun on line pe eurofoodmart.com, se numeste boromir si semana la gust cu ala facut in casa (e romanesc). A comandat cineva de pe site-ul asta? Au preturi f bune si la comanda de peste 100 de dolari au free shipping.

Mie mi-a placut gluma cu taxele- am gustat fiecare procenteleu ma distrez cu matematica. Apropo de taxe- tocmai am comandat formularele pentru angajati...asa ca- nu mai e mult! Ne-or mai da astia vreun stimulus? Mi-ar prinde bine ca-s cam sifonata dupa atatea cumparaturi!
Miere- daca vrei sa nasti- alege ziua si vrajeste-ti omul...nu-l lasa pana nu
. La mine a functionat 
. Noaptea fierbinte, la 4 dimineata s-a rupt apa, am fugit la spital iar la 7 si ceva aveam bebeloiul in brate! Eram in 38sapt! Hai-dupa 1Jan- curaj!
Ramona- cumintei si frumusei copilutii tai. Si semineul si partea aia de living-tare seamana cu al meu. Check this out:

Ciuf- rochia pe total e NO! dragutza partea de jos, dar sus e cam mult dupa gustul meu.
Frig si la noi- 40F, sta sa ploua. Global warming?
adrianaloy spune:
Miere, am salivat si eu pe site-ul ala putin(la eugenii, rahat si kinder). Cozonacul Boromir- stiu ca de asta cumparam in tzara- era f. bun- sper sa fie si proaspat! Nu am cumparat de aici, dar pare Ok si preturile sunt bune.
Tu daca poftesti acum- nu mai sta pe ganduri!

Sal'tare tuturor. Asa de rau imi pare ca nu am mai tinut pasul cu voi. Vad pe-aici lume pe care nici macar nu o cunosc, de atita vreme nu am mai citit virtos acest topic.
Dar sa lasam lamentarile si pun o intrebare a obiect:
Unde gasesc o reteta buna de sugar sau butter cookies, din alea pe care le poti taia cu cookie cutter.
How about gingerbread? A facut cineva? Eu am cumparat o casuta, dar vreau sa facem si de mincare, nu numai de decor.

Au iesit bune, desi trebuia sa le amestesc mai bine. Cica tot secretul este sa nu amesteci prea mult faina, atat cat sa se omogenizeze, pentru ca glutenul din faina se "activeaza" si se intaresc prajiturile.
