    @Anjee yes it is said that you should never blow your own trumpet let somebody else do it for you. Maybe there is that feeling in certain people that if i do not say anything about this or what they said or did no one will comment on it and it will go unnoticed that’s why they have to say themselves first then others follow its quite sad but true…[Read more]

    That’s true @shavkat such people are those who suffer from self esteem issues so they have to do something that will catch the attention of most people. i actually don’t like people who brag and mostly those who do that are people who do not own anything most of the time they brag with other peoples things

    Nail art for me started off as a hobby or a pastime. I think I got the inspiration to get to it after watching a couple of nail art tutorial videos promoted thru Facebook. Initially, I wanted to try my hand […]

    • Anything to do with my finger nails has always been a struggle. as much as i like having my nails looking good all the time i am more comfortable with my natural nails. i would rather take the time an try to grow them other than put acrylics or gel nails i feel very uncomfortable.

      • I think I get what you mean about that “sensation” after applying nail polish. Sometimes it feels weird but I guess over time, I outgrew it and just got used to it. I used to have mine au naturale as well but I was trying to find something different to do that’s why I resorted to this 🙂

    Snacking is a must for me. I can’t imagine living in a house without anything that I can easily munch on as the day goes by. Simply put, I usually eat 5 times in a day – with 2 of those being snacks.

     
    M&S […]

    • They are so good.

      • Yeah they are! And it is so hard to stop munching on these after opening a packet. If not for the calories or the sugar, I’d more likely finish a bag in an hour or so, LOL!

    • Used to think that only graham crackers could be used as the crust for cheesecake. Then I realized that you could grind up any cookie and use it for crust. This cookie would make a great crust for a cheesecake.

      • That’s a great tip – thanks for sharing! Haven’t tried using cookies apart from gingerbread to use as cheesecake crust. But now that you mention it, I think it is worth a try. 🙂 I agree with you it seems like a nice idea and would make the cheesecake a lot tastier, too.

    • One would never think that cookies with the same ingredients would taste different with different brands. What do you feel that has made this brand taste different and better?

      • Oh, this is a different type of cookie. The one I buy for cheaper price is the typical chocolate chip cookie and this one is pistachio and almond. I mean, Tesco’s have decent tasting products but they don’t offer a “budget range” for these types of cookies probably because the ingredients costs more so they can’t offer it for “less”.

    • Ooohh goodness those cookies look so good i also love snacking most of the time i always find myself snacking instead of cooking food and eating like am supposed to. I always knew of pistachio ice cream i have never tasted cookies, but am sure they are tasty

      • Oh yeah, pistachio ice cream is superb! Although I am a bit biased about gelato. But yeah, these are really nice to munch on and gosh, so difficult not to eat a lot of it! I try to avoid it when looking for snacks in the afternoon so I just make myself a peanut butter toast (boring).

    • I am not into any creams and stuff. I have a moist skin naturally.

      • Oh lucky you! I used to have really low maintenance skin and can get away without using too much lotion or creams but that changed this year, I am not sure why. That’s why these days, I need to take care of my skin and hopefully get it back as it used to.

    • It sounds like a great product for dry skin. Some suffer awfully bad with dry skin. Any product that can help keep skin moisturized. Appreciate the review. I’m glad the product is working and hope that you’re skin continues to get better.

      • Thanks for that and I am hoping for the same, too. It feels good to know there are products that are reasonably priced I can use when I need it instead of going to a specialist to buy something ridiculously expensive!

    A friend from California arrived a couple of weeks ago to visit. On that day, it was a gloriously hot day in Dublin and I can truly feel that summer is here in our midst. We went out to go to the zoo and spent the […]

    • I am more into prompt service than being satisfied with what I eat. Places such as these always have good food. I remember the long queue at a hotel in New York.

      • Now that I think about it, it is the staff’s attention to detail that lingers long after you have dined in a restaurant. Of course, food quality is also a factor to remember a “good” restaurant. But there are times when a bad customer service experience ruins the entire dining experience no matter how fantastic the food is.

    • Sounds pretty good. Although the sun was beaming. It still sounds as if then meal was enjoyed and that’s a plus. Italian food is great. I’m glad the food was tasty. The restaurant sounds like a great place to hang out.

      • Yeah it is a great place to catch up with place. In fact, most of the diners are quite young probably because there are lots of HQs around the area so there were a lot of young office workers, too.

    • Wow! what a review. It is never easy to review a Food Item, in an original and unbiased way. Yet you have done a great job indeed.

      • Thanks for the feedback. 🙂 I really try to be as honest as possible when I review anything. I mean, I also rely on reviews to know whether the product or restaurant is something I’d like so I want to do the same thing, too.

    • sounds like a very nice restaurant to visit for 3-4 person and the share of food serve, I hate to admit this, from the picture, it is enough for 2 person only, me and my hubby are big eaters, we could finish off the plate in just 10 minutes!

      As for the dessert, it looked delicious, pity that it is only one piece , that is sufficient for my son but not me and hubby, LOL

      • Oh, I didn’t take the other starters ordered by my husband and my friend visiting us 🙂 So apart from the Burrata salad, we had individual plates as an appetizer. That filled us up since my friend ordered a calamari and my husband ordered mussels. That’s why we decided to order “light” for the mains since we don’t want to take a lot home.

    • Yes Italian foods are famous all over the world especially Italian pizza at every restaurant gig or small. My friend lived there he praised more of Italian pizza,

      A legend suggests that Roman soldiers gained a taste for Jewish Matzoth while stationed in Roman occupied Palestine and developed a similar food after returning home. However a recent archeological discovery has found a preserved Bronze Age pizza in the Veneto region. By the Middle Ages, these early pizzas started to take on a more modern look and taste.

      The peasantry of the time used what few ingredients they could get their hands on to produce the modern pizza dough and topped it with olive oil and herbs. The introduction of the Indian Water Buffalo gave pizza another dimension with the production of mozzarella cheese. Even today, the use of fresh mozzarella di buffalo in Italian pizza cannot be substituted. While other cheeses have made their way onto pizza (usually in conjunction with fresh mozzarella), no Italian Pizzeria would ever use the dried shredded type used on so many American pizzas.

      In America pizza usually falls into two categories: thick and cheesy Chicago style or thin and more traditional New York pizza. In Italy pizza also falls into two distinct categories: Italian pizza and the rest of the world. It might seem silly considering the basic ingredients, but one taste of a true Italian pizza and that’s it. You will never feel the same about this simple and delicious food again.

    This is my first time to cash out here – and I am hoping everything will go well. I didn’t wait until the end of the month, it might slip my mind so after I received my earnings from Upwork, I decided to request for cash out here as well. I didn’t earn much and it took me 2 months to reach the amount but that makes me happy nonetheless 🙂
