Green tea for the win here!
I use “stronger” green teas, let them steep overnight in the fridge starting with room temperature water. If the tea is very simple pr not that great, I add some random fruits and a bit of lemon. Maybe that’s heresy, but it’s good heresy.
One day, I understood that my then-boyfriend was the real thing.
Before him, I had a couple of good relationships. I was happy, but always wondered if I would have been better off on my own. The thought would pop up every couple of days, I would seriously consider it for a bit, then decide I was happier with them than in my own. Then my now husband showed up and we started dating.
One day, some three-four months into this new relationship, I realized I never had that old thought. It just never crossed my mind for months that I should evaluate the relationship. We clicked on so many levels, he made me a better person because it made me want to be better.
We got married “fast” for some external reasons and I never doubted that was the right choice. Since then, i don’t have to think about it: I know my life is so much better with him in it.
But that’s the problem: doing it right takes a lot of effort, doing it wrong is worst than not doing it, so I end up just not reading the news.
This is great, thanks!
I like it, definitely more politically aligned than reddit, but I still find it a bit empty. On one hand, I like that my comments don’t drown in a sea of similar comments, on the other there is rarely a lively discussion. So: mostly good, still hoping for a bit of growth
I think listening to a book is inherently different than reading. With paper-reading, jumping back is easy, as is slowing down and speeding up. But that’s close to impossible for audiobooks. Thus books that work well with audiobooks are books that are written too be read at a constant pace and not require going back on. I think novels for that description, but I struggled to listen to non-fiction and I wouldn’t try to listen to “hard” books either.
Personally, I can only listen to audiobooks when I am performing a repetitive task (mainly driving around). Otherwise I get distracted, either by the task or by my own thoughts. So I don’t use audiobooks much.
Yeah, I have the same question. Also the statement that it would work without internet is confusing. Would it be something like chip you carry around? It seems like a potentially interesting idea, and I’m glad to see the EU being active towards developments in the crypto world and counteract
The Lord of the Rings trilogy, by Tolkien
I return to it ever couple of years, always in bad times and often in good times too. Everyone is trying to do the best they can, contributing what they can. Only few characters are at all malicious. Emotions are deep and powerful, portrayed lightly. The whole story is a great collaboration where wildly different people overcome their differences to reach a single, all-encompassing goal.
You did great!
Remember to follow a diet you can keep up in the long run. 5 kilos in 3.5 months is ready a lot, don’t crash and burn and don’t overdo it, but be proud of your achievements!
I’ve been consistently using the Hugo Award to discover new books and I’ve never been disappointed! (Obviously, I select the books that appeal to me the most, but it’s a really good track record )
I’m also interested in the mini-compost idea! Let us know
