Creating a gourmet meal from Christmas leftovers is a fantastic idea for several reasons:
Reduce Waste: Instead of letting perfectly good food go to waste, you can transform it into something new and delicious.
Save Money: Using leftovers means you don't have to buy new ingredients, which can help you save on your grocery bill.
Get Creative: It's a fun challenge to come up with new recipes and ways to use what's already in your fridge.
Impress Guests: If you have friends or family over, they'll be amazed at your culinary skills and creativity.
Nostalgia: Repurposing holiday food can bring back the festive spirit and memories of the celebrations.
If you can’t finish, whether you’re going solo or with a partner, it doesn’t mean your vagina is broken. Instead, it just means there might be some roadblocks preventing you from feeling emotionally and physically engaged until the very end.

This outfit is on sale at the Haute doll boutique. It does not seem to be very popular, as they have had it in stock for a long time now, but it is really cute and looks much better in person! It even comes with a very cool wig that I will be using for my Eclectic once I am back home :)
Girls Day Out fundraising event held Sat. March 22, 2014 at Bristol United Methodist Church in Bristol Indiana. The event supported RETA (Reason Enough to Act), a faith-based not-for-profit pregnancy and family resource center. Two dozen crafters and vendors like youngest entrepreneur, Emma, whose business was Cute-E's Cupcakes, participated. In addition, some health and wellness products and services like massages were featured. The event provided an afternoon of pampering, shopping, and giveaways. The first 50 shoppers received a free gift bag. Charitable donations were accepted for the RETA organization, like wipes, pull-ups, bar soap, baby care items and clothing. Rhonda Fox of RETA hosted a booth at the show.
I'll tell you one secret. This girl is the reason I start collecting dolls again.
Last year I got dumped by my boyfriend after our 4-year relationship and that shocked me a lot, so I stop doing every single thing I used to like, including collecting dolls.
And then when Disney Frozen was on cinema, and it was so popular that so many people trying to get the Disney classic doll, at first I didn't care, but then one day my friend bought me this Elsa classic doll (on the right) and she was so pretty that made me fall in love once again. So I decided to get back on track and doing what I like again.
After the first one I got as a present, I found out that it was so hard to get another one, but after a lot of bidding on ebay, I finally got another (on the left) despite the price that was so incredibly high :'(
n what was probably the least enjoyable game to watch this season, for many reasons, the important fact was that Longridge prevailed and left Turton with all 3 points to return to the top of the West Lancashire League Premier Division.
In a week where West Lancs games have been postponed, and ordered to be replayed after 87 minutes, both sides agreed to play the match over two halves of 40 minutes each.
On a difficult surface, in extremely windy conditions, Turton played to a rigid game plan and the referee struggled to impose his authority from very early on in the game. The tactic however proved successful as, without troubling Lee Dovey in the Town goal,they made it to half time without conceding, nor looking particularly troubled by Town's superior possession.
Crowd favourite Joe Melling had returned to the Longridge side after a recent head injury, and he had a headed half chance at the far post after a Brad Carsley cross that unfortunately came to nothing. In a sign of things to come Town complained that Melling had been stamped on by the Turton keeper, but their appeals came to nothing.
Manager Lee Ashcroft's frustration at both his own side's efforts, and the lack of protection shown to his players by the referee, was obvious as the side's went in 0-0 at half time after exactly 40 minutes.
Longridge now had the strong wind at their backs, and Jack Preston (pictured) was introduced at half time in place of the unfortunate Conor Linighan, whose neat skilful style was not suited to the playing surface. Town were now lined up in a 3-5-2 formation with Preston joining leading scorer Brad Carsley up front.
Carsley and Preston linked well as Town went a little more direct and, after good work from Carsley, Preston stabbed the ball home with 20 minutes remaining to finally give Town the lead that their superiority deserved. In the aftermath however, the Turton keeper clearly punched Ash Ball and was given a straight red card leaving the Home side down to ten men. 0-1 to Town.
This should have resulted in Longridge going on to win the game comfortably, but this wasn't the case as Turton arguably played better with 10 men than 11. However, with Man of the Match Ged Smith controlling play at the back for Town, Lee Dovey was never troubled, and at the other end Longridge failed to test the outfield replacement goalkeeper as the light faded, and the elusive second goal never came, nor was it needed.
As the referee blew the whistle to end a particularly frustrating game, Mark Woods was shown a red card, presumably for something he said after the game had ended. Who knows....it was that kind of game!
After the match Manager Lee Ashcroft was rightly just pleased that his side were leaving with 3 points, " I've not a lot to say really. I suppose the cliche is that you need to win games like that if you are going to win League titles, but there is not a lot of satisfaction aside from that. I feel for my lads because they've worked hard with everything against them tonight, in very difficult circumstances, and I'm just delighted to get out of here with the 3 points. We've no game on Saturday, nor have Turton, so maybe we could have played the game at the weekend, I don't know. It's 3 points and I'll draw a line under it."

I do have reason to believe, from photos like this, that this is the same building (on the left) in both pictures but just heavily modified into what you see today. In the background, the Marble Arch Hotel still stands but the building that was beside is gone. This is looking north down Richards.

We decided for a variety of reasons to skip yoga this weekend, and instead hunker down for a Day of Industry before Year of Doing consumes the next few weekends coming up. My plan was to labor in the kitchen all morning while Pookie did fabric cutting. Here I started in on what turned out to be a ridiculous number of orange peels that needed to be dried and/or turned into zest. The insides of the oranges later became cocktails.

The reason for visiting Kreuzplatz was to see yet another of the many attractions of the amazing Zürich transport system, the Forchbahn. The Forchbahn is a 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 3⁄8 in) gauge narrow-gauge light railway, linking central Zürich (Zürich Stadelhofen) to the eastern suburbs near Esslingen via Forch. The name is often abbreviated to just FB, which also appears on the trains. Locals call the train "Auntie Frieda" ("Tante Frieda"). Between Stadelhofen and Rehalp the FB shares the tracks with VBZ line 11, and runs as a (limited-stop) tramway, but then it changes character and turns into a light railway, given number S18 in the S-Bahn network. On Sunday it was running to a half-hourly frequency, uisng Stadler Be 4/6 six car sets.
why is it that I only ever seem to blog from coffeeshops?
also, good local coffeeshops is definitely something that west Delray could use more of. We don't even have a close Starbucks anymore. The one down the road closed a few months ago. So we have this other one a few miles away which we basically only go to when B is getting her hair done.

For some reason, many years ago, the Canadian auto market was thought to be sufficiently different from that of the U.S. as to justify the production of uniquely 'Canadian' cars and trucks. This led to such anomalies as Mercury pickups, Dodges with Plymouth bodies, Pontiacs that were really modified Chevys, Mercurys called Monarchs and Fords called Meteors. The Meteor was a Ford with special grille and trim, manufactured from 1949 through 1961 (with the name being revived for another full-size Mercury-like car in 1969). For '49, the Meteor sported a grille reminiscent of the contemporary Mercury, although in later years the make was more or less Ford-like. Perhaps the 1961 Meteor, last of the original series, was the wildest of the lot, especially in its rear styling. The '61 also featured extremely wide-spaced quad headlights-----so widely spaced, in fact, that a customizer could easily have grafted in two more lamps, one between each existing pair! In all probability, however, nobody would ever do that, mainly because Meteors (and all other uniquely 'Canadian' vehicles, for that matter) are relatively rare to begin with.
For some curious reasons, this temple dedicated for Lord Siva was built many meters below the ground level. For this reason, almost all the time the sanctum and the core parts of the temple are under water, restricting entry to the inner areas.
A water channel system too is visible around the main temple. But this canal is dry and one can walk down to a point from where it’s impossible to go further.
There is a small temple for Siva’s consort too near the mail shrine. The Kalyanamantapa (ceremonial marriage hall) is great a structure. It has been believed that this is one of the oldest temples in Hampi.
View of the main hall infront of the shrine. The main tower too can be seen The entry to the temple passes through the main tower in front of the temple campus. It looks like this tower was an addition done later on and was never completed. A series of wide large steps along the axis of the tower and the sanctum leads one to the inner part of the temple. The main hall in front of the shrine is huge with massive cubical pillars supporting the roof. The lamppost actually protrudes through the roof. Depending upon the water level one may be able to proceed to the sanctum area.
The temple has a Garbhagriha, aligned with an antarala, and aradhamantapa and a mahamantapa. The mahamantapa has pillared corridors fuse with the pillared Mukhamantapa making a larger pillared frontal mantapa which also encloses a dhwajastambha. The pillars of the temple are plain. The temple is stylically datable to 14th century. An inscription referring to this temple states that Krishnadevaraya donated Nagalapura and other villages for worship and offering to the god for the merit of his parents Narsa Nayaka and Nagajidevi.
Really one of the only reasons I went to New York City - besides visiting my friends in Brooklyn who were to a woman out of town (one was there but she had another guest) was to see "Rent."
I had planned to see it on Saturday but as I met up with my friend Dan (from Chicago but who's moving to New York) on Friday in the Financial District, I took the train uptown and went to see "Rent" on Friday instead.
I ended up paying the same amount for mezannine seats as I would have online even though I went through TKTS but it was more than worth it.
I could have actually left NYC on Friday night and the whole trip, $140 a night hotel room and all, would have been worth it.
I especially love on the display how they worked in the fire escapes.
One reason why I set up the Ratcliffe on Soar Power Station group.
Its 650-foot stack was always present, two miles from the end of my parent's street.
In many streets in the area, it seems to be in view, right at the end. All roads lead to Ratters?
I'm quite pleased with this photo for two reasons. Firstly, I snuck into Cardiff with a camera and didn't feel Roath_Park_Mark or Siriol pilipala9's hands' on my shoulder, and secondly, by adopting a pose last used by Peter Gordeno and the Young Generation in the early 1970's when dancing on the Jimmy Tarbuck Show and not being propositioned while in said position, I managed to cut myself out of this picture, unlike last Saturday's abysmal effort at the Aviation Memorial in Clynderwen.
This is the Packet pub in Cardiff Bay, Butetown whatever.
