Typical!

From Life in Dubai, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Open all of four weeks, now "due to unexpected high traffic, the observation deck at Burj Khalifa has been temporarily closed for maintenance and upgrade."Absolutely typical.Build something, open it to great fanfare. Almost immediately surround it with red & white cones and dig it up.'Unexpected high traffic'? It was always going to be a major attraction, numbers are capped, volume of traffic to expect was obvious.The real problem is in the statement though: "Technical issues with the... Read more

Winter salads

From A House Called Nut, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I love having a nice, fresh salad on the side of meals, but this can be at odds with seasonal eating in the wintertime--particularly in Finland, where the growing season is so very short and winter pickings are pretty much limited to root veg and cabbage. Happily, we're all fond of cabbage in this household (even the dog seems delighted when the occasional slice hits the floor), so it takes a full winter of cabbage salads before we get sick of it. But variety is nice too, and this year... Read more

YouTube: A Waste of Time . . . but a FUN Waste of Time!

From Expat Mom, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I have to admit that I hardly ever go on YouTube, except to check Supernatural fan vids for one of my Squidoo lenses, but there are times when it just sucks me in. There are dozens of cool music videos on there, but here’s one that Irving and I found the other day. It’s a music video that used to play here on the Sony Channel between shows and it was our favorite for years. We were really pleased to find it again! And, while watching Supernatural the other day (yes, another... Read more

Why Aren't You Wearing Any Pants'

From Jet Set Zero, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

No, this post is not about Jen. Though I've seen more of Jen sans pantalons than I'd like to admit. Chances are, when you visit a traditional Vietnamese village, you will encounter the adorable, dirty, pantless village children on your journey. I used to have a tradition of sending my mom a postcard of such a scene, which I knew always made her inevitably cringe as she gazed upon their dust-smeared smiles. While in Sapa, we were not let down. Perhaps most importantly of all, I was very happy to... Read more

What is your favorite dish'

From Live In The Philippines, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I’m currently working on a new LiP article, but I had this idea I wanted to write about..  It isn’t 100% on topic, but never the less is something I’m sure you can relate to. Cooking. Unlike most of the folks here on LiP I have to rely on trips to the local Filipino restaurant if I’m in the mood for good food. Since I don’t have an Asawa and I’m not in the Philippines. I’m kinda on my own. I’m also not really a cook. I can make a few dishes, but... Read more
