The Caribbean, gorgeous weather, endless sand beaches. Dr. Fil is tempted, but still, guess what she is most interested in 😉
Although observing animals closely can help understand the animal that has proclaimed itself superior to others.
Hope you enjoy these pics. Plenty more on their way if I find the time to connect and post.
Five star hotels make her feel restless and she looks for an escape into the real world. They say Higuey is it. Otherwise, the exquisite cocktail mixed with local rums just for her should do the trick.

Definitely worth a look (and a hear)!!!

Člani Kulturnega društva Dolsko so se včeraj spet izkazali in s premierno predstavo Okrogle mize pošteno nasmejali publiko. Iznajdljiva kombinacija gledališke igre, skeča in video vložkov je vžgala. Scenarij ima kar nekaj nastavkov, ki bi mu lahko omogočili nadaljnji razvoj likov in prepletanje njihovih zgodb. Upam, da si bodo scenaristka, režiser in igralci, ki so jo sooblikovali, vzeli čas in z dobro voljo, ki je imajo v Dolskem na pretek, uprizorili razširjeno in poglobljeno različico. Jaz zagotovo pridem!
Aplavz vsem sodelujočim! Uživaška predstava, ki jo toplo priporočam vsem, predvsem tistim, ki bi se radi skladno z željami sedanje vladajoče politične opcije dodobra sprostili.
Pa še nekaj slikic za pokušino:
PS: Res mi je žal, da nisva mogla ostati na žuru, da legendarnega štrudla prav tako legendarne babice sploh ne omenjam. Delu čast in oblast, kenede?

When it came to cats, I’ve always known they were rather special. Hey, if you are designed to play with the tiny creatures that according to the ultimate trilogy in five parts are superior to men in all respects, you’re bound to rank high in the scope of the Universe and everything. It has always been clear to me that they comprehend much more than they usually let us believe, but now one of them seems to have let her guard down and openly displayed her abilities.
The subject in the photo below, officially known as Planika Zvezdica Zaspanka, also known as Zvezdica to friends, has been caught red-handed. Or black-smoke-pawed at the least. Literally.
Let me explain. I let my new laptop (meet Rodney! – those who’ve seen Only Fools and Horses will understand) open to run new software installation. Upon my return, I found that:
– the My Documents folder was renamed (hey whose documents are they, anyway?!)
– six desktop icons were renamed to Skype (humm…)
– 14 “Windows Help” windows were open
What remains to be seen is what other deeds had been done in my absence with the extensive assistance of the Windows Help files. Thanks to The Godfather’s candid shot, I’ll at least know where to look for the culprit.

Ljubljana: Beautiful weather today as trade unionists from all over Europe came to rally and demonstrate their solidarity. Representatives of 54 trade unions from 54 countries demanded better wages and for EU’s finance ministers to put a stop to wage discrimination. The event culminated in a rock concert and general good-fun attitude.
The organisers claim to have had a crowd of around 30,000, but the figure seems somewhat exaggerated.
Another Sunday… or holiday at least gives another excuse and opportunity to bake. Here comes my friend Nina’s longtime favorite and a staple in my series of American desserts. Check out Nina’s Fresh Illustrations, they might be inspired with the newly supplied top quality energy…. chocolate… yummm! This is best with pecans, but walnuts do a mighty fine job as well.
I found the recipe on the Internet a few years ago, but can’t find the source to give due credit. All I remember is that the chef made this to get through a Superbowl with the family, stuck in front of their TV sets. Considering the recent events concerning Olimpija hockey team (somebody please post on this so I can link to it here) and tomorrow’s undoubtedly exciting match, this may be a good time to recreate the recipe.

Go get’em tonight, Green Dragons!
You will need:
Bake in: a 9 x 9 inch / 25 x 25cm cake/brownie pan
Preheat the oven to 160 ° C / about 350 ° F. Line your brownie pan with a silicon baking sheet or butter and flour it.
Bash the chocolate bars, still in their wrappers, hard against a counter top or table until they are in small pieces. If the wrapper breaks, put the chocolate in a plastic bag and bang away. Bash the walnuts/pecans in the same way. You want the nuts to be fairly chunky still, not pulverized. Alternatively, cut up the chocolate bars and walnuts/pecans with a sharp knife (recommend banging and smashing on Superbowl or “Olimpija in the Austrian ice hockey league” night… better walnuts than humans press…).
Melt the butter and one of the chocolate bars over a low heat, stirring, until completely melted. In the meantime, combine the flour, cocoa and salt. Add this to the melted butter and chocolate.
Add the sugars and blend well. Take off the heat and allow to cool a bit.
Add the eggs and mix well until combined.
Stir in the walnuts/pecans and the rest of the chocolate.
Pour the batter into the brownie pan, and bake for about 40 minutes.
Let cool and cut into 16 squares. Actually, I prefer to cut them up into smaller pieces given the taste intensity and how calorie-packed they are. My favorite (sorry about the spelling, Adriaan, but this is an American dessert) way of serving this is with a scoop of ice cream and a couple of strawberries.
the more they stay the same.
This is the caricature published in Delo newspaper on 9 December 1985. The first page included a report on developments in the Vatican and a new wave of workers’ strikes in western Germany with a note on the OPEC trying to handle problems related to oil prices.
Ahh, such a lovely word. Let’s play a game of word association.
If I tell you that “tinctumutation” means “change of colour“, what is the first thing that cames to mind?
(It would be interesting to run same test just before the next general elections.)
