on marriage

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:For the pillars of the temple stand apart,And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.
Kahlil Gibran

Things i have eaten today

Lets see... its not a very long list.. so we can get this over with very quickly.. it ll be fast i promise you.. like rippin off a band aid real fast as they say.. this enormosity ( is there such a word??) of the first post is just so unnerving ! its like i feel i have to fulfill all these aspirations and dreams and expectations and....oh.. right sorry..that wasnt me....was just readin off the teleprompter of some damn awards...right so things i ate today.. before i lose any more readers....
1.Coffee
2.Salami sandwich ( with mayo , ketchup , tabasco and.... i couldnt resist.. cheddar cheese - Yes a heart attack disguised as a sandwich)
3.A Peach - my saving grace
4.TEA - O save my soul, dear sweet thing....
5.A cube of dark chocolate with pistachio filling - ditto for you
6.Strawberry Yoghurt - Seriously i dont know what happened to me. 2 healthy things in a row.
7.French Toast - or rather my first rather sorry attempt at makin french toast. I feel sorry callin it french toast. French toast lovers the world over might string me up by my thumbs if they saw my sordid version of french toast. For some reason i woke up today with an urge to be all healthy and wife"ly" like.. such urges are few and far between....and considerin i woke up at 11 ,I wasnt off to a very good start......nonetheless after endless searches on the net for THE perfect French toast..... i decided to just throw one together any which which way i wanted. Go figure. So i cracked an egg, poured in some milk , popped in some sugar...and i felt a lil adventorous so i poured in some cinnamon powder.. la la laaaaa look at me...all exotic and alll... at this point i was all hey let s get this thing rolling...soooooooo i poured in some butter into the mixture... and soaked the bread in the gloop ( gloop???? ) and poured a lil oil in a pan to fry it...and hey what the heck who s countin calories anymore anyhooo.... here u go my lil lovely butter.. warm up to tht oil...make friends you two !!! i cn literally hear my arteries cloggin up at this point but hey who cares ! im gonna make the best french toast ever...so i really marinate the baby i let that bread soak like there was no tom... why dont any of those websites tell u not to do that??? Let it just suffice to say i had bread puddin instead. It was undercooked inside, over cooked outside , buttery, dry,sugary, non sugary oh i dont know... could a french toast BE so much??????
