I Have Never

Posted on March 11, 2008March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia

…because I cannot be bothered to come up with the mental energy or effort for an actual blog post, I thought I would “lift” the following list from bex (from whom I seem to get all the good stuff these days) and share it with you all. The orange statements are the ones I’ve never done. Enjoy!…

Fun Times Questionnaire

Posted on March 11, 2008March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia

Borrowed from TLU, who borrowed it from someone else, who borrowed it from Kevin Bacon. Do you moan in the shower like the people on the Herbal Essences commercial? I don’t think I’ve ever moaned in the shower. Well, I may have groaned at dropping that last precious sliver of soap, chasing it about the tub then realising that I…

Posted on March 2, 2008March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia

Om Tare Tuttare Ture Mama Ayul Puni Gyana Pudham Kuru Soha”. This is the White Tara prayer which aids in cultivating health, longevity and removal of related obstacles. I thought a prayer would be better suited this month than a meditation. Peace to all.

Food Notes: Week Eleven

Posted on August 11, 2007March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia

You see, though I was born in Italy and fully qualify as a red-blooded Italiana, I am also a quarter Romanian. And since my grandmother, Jeni’s birthday was yesterday (and she…

Why Canada Sucks Sometimes

Posted on July 10, 2007March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia
