Social expectations of what a mom is supposed to be hasn't evolved since women have entered the workforce. We used to be expected to excel as moms. Now we are expected to excel both as mothers and career women. Men traditionally were socialized to be breadwinners and excel at bringing home a paycheck. Dads, perhaps are [...] Read more

Of temptation and capitulation

Suffer the fig eaters to come unto me...I find it unlikely that Eve, if she had existed, would have risked so much for the sake of an apple. Especially since it probably tasted a lot like the crabapples we know today. And while the fig and the apple share the distinction of being domesticated very early, the fig seems to be winning, at around 11,400 years ago.No. I think it would have been a fig. I would behave foolishly for the promise of a plump, perfect, ripe, soft-skinned fig.Or perhaps it... Read more

It's been a busy week, lots of things to do & organize & taking care of some extra kids for a couple of days.Last weekend we visited the show 'Les Eaux Nocturnes' in the gardens of Chateau Versailles... it was truly beautiful. Absolument magnifique! I'm not sure if the pictures will tell the story (always difficult to make pictures when it's (getting) dark), but let's give it a try...The gardens open around 9pm when it's still light. Gorgeous flowers, aren't they'The... Read more

Thanh Chuong's Work

From ahoy hanoi, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Despite thinking Thanh Chuong is an asshole, I can't deny that he is an amazingly talented artist. His paintings are all interesting to say the least.One thing I do take issue with though is that the pamphlet for the palace says, "All subjects are fair game, and he effortlessly renders them in his personal artistic 'language' that is unmistakably Thanh Chuong." My issue comes with this: All of us immediately said, "His work looks like Picassos," as soon as we saw a couple of paintings. And... Read more

I want to thank EVERYONE for all the great responses in my earlier requests for interviews! I also need to ask those of you who have yet to receive interview questions from me to forgive me. I am working on individualized questions for each individual based on location, nationality and situation. If I am allowed to say so, I believe I have some very interesting interviews forthcoming from Saudis both within and outside the Kingdom and other expatriates too with their unique stories to share...

Dentist at Work

From Rantings from Afar, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles

As might be expected, going to the dentist in the UK (as in Malta) is not the cheapest. Even if you do it on the NHS, you still have to pay here. So when a tooth started niggling me last year I thought I’d try and find somewhere to treat it which wouldn’t break the bank. While trawling the internet I came across Guy’s Hospital Dental Service. Guy’s hospital has an associated dental school with King’s College. The dentistry students of course need to get practice.... Read more
