Turquey a la Wok anyone???


I know, I know. Haven’t been writing all that much in my blog. Guess I need a camera to make things more exciting (sigh).
Anyways yesterday had fantastic dinner at my house, chill out mood, candles all over the place, international crowd, exotic wannabe Chinese/Indian dish, more Portuguese/bullshit in the making, and what can I say it was the perfect melange for a perfect night.
Good conversation, mostly dishing about Brussels and Belgium, or lack of it, with a comic relief brought by stupid accent imitations. Any one can guess who was the biggest accent impersonator? Anyone??
No brownie, no sleep afterwards at least felt like no sleep when I had to get up to go to work, and a great feeling that my friends in Euroland are a finding, my family in all the dark, drunk, cheerful and stupid moments. I know, I know, getting a bit emotional here.
Next dinner I promise I will have a camera to take pics.
And by the way I got a super-duper present!!! In fact I have been dreaming about that for a long time!!! A Mercedes? Prada shoes? A desert island? A boyfriend??? No it was an onion cutterJ. I loved it, loved it loveeeed it. No longer will my hands possess the fowl smell of onions after organizing dinners chez moi! So thank you xuxu Rosa and João!!! And thank you, Fili, Pedros from Azores, Namita, Rita and Testosterone man AKA Luís for coming. Love you all, sniff, sniff (feeling very mushy mushy today-must be almost that time of the month).
Ain´t life grand when you can feel the happiness through little things like not smelling bad!
On a more serious subject Time magazine cover of last week focus on the faith crisis experienced by mother Teresa during her life, even though she’s like the biggest nun in history!!! It seems she hid it well and only after her death these letters were she spoke about it are being published. It’s like, you know, like, major shock in the world. “I call, I cling, I want-and there is no One to answer […]there is such convicting emptiness that those very thoughts return like sharp knifes &hurt my very soul […]” Dayummmmmmm if Mother Teresa feels like this imagine the rest of us!!! In her letters she speaks of God as if almost he deserted her, asking why did he not love her back. I guess they didn’t have Oprah back then eih? He’s just not into you!!! Ok, God lightning coming upon me at any second now…
While I’m still alive would like to mention that currently very happy because Benfica, the biggest club in the world (literally) is in zzzze championzzz leaguezz. Yuhuuuu!
Did I mention that I ran/dragged myself 8,5kms last Wednesday??? At this rate I will be able to run to Lisbon every weekend instead of taking a plane. It would be cheaper. And maybe I would loose those 3 kgs that I’ve been aiming to loose for a while.
Tomorrow Izz gozz shopingue!!!! Oh joy of beginning of month…
