5 Romanian Ways to Lose Weight

Oh, bread and cheese, tough to go without them. I've never had Schwarzbrot. What bread we have here that is dark is mostly done with color additives. I'm having peas as I write this :). Probably won't post thisrecipe ;-)

I love tea and I am always interested to try different varieties and flavors in tea. However, my favourite is the traditional milk tea, (may not be the best option for health) with different spices especially cardamom!

Winning Tactics for Settlers of Catan

LOL Yes, you do suddenly stop being the lovely lady that you are in 'real' life, and turn into a scary settler. Oh! I should have included psyching people out as a Catan tactic!

Five Famous Courtesans

Always interested to read how women made their own lives before suffrage allowed us to make them without asking some bloke's permission first. Unfortunately, at least to me, many of them did end up as courtesans and prostitutes, especially if ...

As someone with stiff joints (and potential arthritis in later life) I find that getting up and walking regularly when on a long flight or drive helps. We often road trip as a foursome with our friends, who drink a lot of water, so need regular ...
