Nothing wrong with impressing your other half/significant other. I don't "have" to but want to. I impress daily with my culinary skills I dress to impress and overall impress with my sparkling personality

 

All of the above makes everyone happy.

 

* I believe you 100% when you talk about your "culinary skills"---after all you are a smart cookie. Bet you bake a few of those too.

 

* Here is my take:

 

* I was reading amral's touching tribute to his wife and he said something that resonated with me. He said he always tried to do things that made his wife happy because he knew when his wife was happy he was happy.

 

* A HAPPY WIFE = A HAPPY LIFE.

 

* I believe that 100%.

 

BOTTOM LINE:

 

* My wife makes me very happy and I try my best to reciprocate----she gets lots of attention, affection, respect, and genuine compliments from me. Those things are priceless riya---money can't buy them.

 

RE: RIYA'S "SPARLING PERSONALITY"

 

* There is nothing more beautiful in a woman than a sweet and sparkling personality.

Too many times people don't have time to listen to their spouse or kids and the sad part is that those moments once gone will never return. Spend time with your loved ones and insist that nothing is more important or urgent than that and your will be pleased when it is all said and done.

* Is a good thing yuh marry a country bai chams---where Big B from Mahaica or Maichony ? Which town man rass you think can dole out charming compliments like "yuh hand prapa sweet."lol

 

 

Anyway chams, Lemme put it this way:

 

Show me a woman who takes joy in cooking for her man/husband, show me a woman who takes pride in her culinary skills, show me a woman who loves her kitchen, show me a woman who loves to impress her man/husband and I will show you a man/husband who has deep appreciation for his woman/wife and her efforts and is extremely generous when it comes to doling out genuine and sincere praises and compliments.

 

* A woman will always try impress her man/husband if he always makes her feel appreciated with kind words, affection and genuine compliments.

 

* But what happens in cases where the man EXPECTS his woman to cook and doesn't show his APPRECIATION for her efforts ?

 

* Would a woman try to IMPRESS such a man ? Would a woman try to impress a man who takes efforts her for granted ?

I haven't had soda of any kind in over 16 years.  Even in Guyana "sweet drinks" wasn't my thing

 

* You must surely be healthy, slim and trim.

 

* It takes a lot of willpower, self control and self restraint to avoid "sweet drinks" for 16 years. You are clearly a disciplined woman riya.

 

* By the way, The Rev has this image or perception of you. Here:

 

That girl Riya strikes me as the kind of woman who is in love with her life----every minute of it. No wonder she is so happy. People who are unhappy are those who are in love with someone else's life. But not Riya. She is in love with her life. She cool.

 

* Am I on the right track Riya ? Do I have a reasonable perception or  image of you ? Lemme know.

 

Rev

You are right on track!

 

I'm not big on desserts or anything that is sweet so its easy for me to turn the other way. Coca cola can go belly up and I will be fine

Hehehe, you talking about 'culinary skills' to Rev!

soon the man will expound the culinary delights of sushi, hehehe

CANADA LOSES HER VIRGINITY. MUSLIM CONVERT COMMITS FIRST TERRORIST ACT IN THE COUNTRY

 

 

* Canadians are stunned.

 

Rev

 

 

Why are Canadians stunned?

Check out the background and history of this Canadian.

Act of war because he is a convert...madman if he was not a convert!

Bibeau, who was born in 1982, was a convert to Islam and had a history of drug use before he converted, two sources said.

 

His passport had been confiscated by Canadian authorities when they learned he planned to go fight overseas, a U.S. law enforcement official told CNN's Susan Candiotti. The official said it was not clear when that happened.

Canadian broadcaster

 

CBC reported that Bibeau had a record of drug arrests going back 10 years.

 

* Human nature my bwoy!

 

* Canadians didn't believe that kind of "madness" would visit their country.

 

* So they were understandably stunned.

 

* The "muslim convert" part----that's creates drama.

 

Rev

He's a terrorist. Period.

 

* You're a blunt and straightforward woman.

 

* Don't know why TI is explaining.

 

Rev

 

 

He is also a damm disgruntled Canadian, ...that is what I am explaining.

 

The govt took away his passport and right to travel, and the man reacting.

The news pushing this convert thing instead of focusing on the real issue.

we live in an anti-govt world today.

11 WORDS YOU ARE PROBABLY MISPRONOUNCING

 

 

* How do you pronounce that word ?

 

=================

 

HERE ARE SOME OF THE WORDS PEOPLE MISPRONOUNCE:

 

* KIBOSH: The standard pronunciation is "ky-bosh," not "kih-bosh."

 

* SHERBET: Many say "sher-bert," though there's no second "r" — not even a silent one. It's not to be confused with "sorbet" (sor-bay), which contains no milk. Sherbet does.

* MISCHIEVOUS: The standard pronunciation is "mis-chiv-us," not "mis-chee-vee-us."

 

* PRESTIGIOUS: The preferred pronunciation is "pre-sti-jus," not "pre-stee-jus."

 

* BANAL: Standard pronunciation is "buh-nal," not "bay-nul."

 

* CACHE: It's pronounced exactly the same as "cash." 

Some confuse "cache" with "cachet" ("cash-ay"), which means "carrying great prestige."

 

* FLACCID: The standard pronunciation is "flak-sed," not "flas-sid."
