I think of this story rather interesting. What do you think? Was it real or was it just an illusion?

Going ou naturele 2.

Thu, 07 May 2009 14:55:00 EDT

As i've already written in a previous mail about it, i'm going to add some words to it in this one too.

Since i've started knitting and exploring other roots and heritages on of the best things i dicovered about it was that at that moment time stops and you relax, forget about all the worries you have and can do much more later on throughout the day :)

All the things i've discovered so far are so interesting to me-the games my grandparents played, songs they've sung, food they've made (this part is the best-cooking traditional food-i've known some, but am learning many more now) and about all the things they've done.

What i don't like is that people are starting to forget their origin, how life was back then and are too much in this all modern technology and life we have one. I'm worried all this will be forgotten. As i've spoken to some kids there are many things they don't know and understand. But why is that so-because nobody tells them! How could they know then? Not everybody is like me, who wants to explore and ask questions. Hope this will start to change, because i think it's time we start thinking about others and about our origins, our mother Nature nevertheless ...

On the picture you can see our corn-rack or as it is called here "toplar". Nowadays we don't storrage hay in it, but as the techonology developed on - our cars :)

Yesterday evening my goldfish died. Believe it or not - she helped me get through my troubles when i was in highschool. To some it might seem this fact ridiculous, but believe it or not such small creature can give you much.
So, may she rest in peace :)

Going au naturele

Haha! Finally i started exploring things my grandmothers did ... Making traditional food, wearing traditional clothes, knitting ... And living more healthy ... Can't be more happy and satisfied with the new rhythm of life i've chosen!

I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but if you haven't it's interesting to watch the whole video, so you'll see what you can do with plain vegetables. These guys made really interesting music out of it ...

Toothbrush-es

Sun, 19 Oct 2008 18:35:00 EDT

I never thought i was going to write about toothbrushes, but i discovered today that not any toothbrush can be good (not that i didn't know that already).

When i was traveling around England i came across an "add"booth, where they tried to tell ppl that washing your teeth is important. Well-i knew that allready, but i wanted to see what they know what i don't yet. I discovered that i know everything they had to tell me, so they gave me a gift bag in which there was a toothbrush, toothpaste and a leaflet.
Well and then i forgot all about it ...

When i came home i put things back where they all belonged and didn't care about the toothbrush-until today. It was a high time for me to change it, so i opened new one i got during my travel in England. I always hated small brushes. When i was in primary school i even wanted to have toothbrushes as "big" as you could find one. So, this time i didn't have other choice and i tried new, small brush-and guess what!? I LOVED IT! It was so brilliant. I could go to all the spaces i wanted to, there is also a special gentle rubber for a gum which i thought i didn't like (this belief came from a toothbrush i had-it had a gum rubber on it and it wasn't pleasant to use it), but i did. So, this toothbrush fascinated me so much i had to write a whole blog on it!
Which one it is you wonder?! I don't like to do publicity for such things, but this time i will make an exception: http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate360/US/EN/HomePage.cvsp

Since i'm writing about tooth care i'll also add my fav:) toothpaste: http://www.pronamel.us/

Although new Madonna's CD repeats itself (all the music on it is almost the same) this song isn't so bad, especially because of the lyrics. Listen to it!

Dog collar that teaches?!

Sun, 14 Sep 2008 06:58:00 EDT

If anybody knows anythings about dog collar who teach a dog improper doings. I found a collar named Mutivet which is said to spray a dog when he does sth that he shouldn't with a citronella and that this spray annoys dog so much that he stops doing this habit of his (for example: you don't want your dog to wander around the village on the road by himself).
Does anybody know anything about this spray-is it really helpfull and harmless?

Here are a few links that i found of this product:

Religion I.

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 17:07:00 EDT

What religion are you? Does it matter?!

What you believe in?! Does it matter?!

Is there a higher "power" beyond us? Does it matter-why would it even concern us?!

What is the meaning of life anyways?! How can we know what is our purpose on this Earth?

TELL ME YOUR OPININON! You know: more heads together know more!
If you've got any opinion at all i would most appreciate to hear it-be provokative, be you, share to meothers your thoughts, your opinions!! And thx for sharing them! :)
