WinForPooh Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 I've been procrastinating yoga for ages and ages. And ages. I guess I'd better get to it now! But I never got past the one where you just lie back and play dead because wow, more sleeping and call it fitness... I know it's not how it's supposed to be, but.

It's vital to have it at the end of the grueling yoga session since it provides proper relaxation of the muscles you've been straining. Let alone it feels super at that time.

Hmmm that's kind of got running in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, stressing over 4CC and Worlds gained me three kilos I did lose them just in time for the new season (and this thread) to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess we all need to pay closer attention to the scale as we approach the Olympics, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would link pics but I am seriously too hungry now and this is not an hour of the day when eating is a good idea. I'M OUTTA HEEEERE! I go to the Christmas market every December and buy gingerbreads to my family members. They then tell me every time how pretty they are and that they won't want to eat them But before eating them, we usually hang them on the Christmas tree. I usually give them gingerbreads like these: (x) (x) (x) And these are the very pretty ones, for special occassions, like birthday, marriage, birth, etc..., often with a quote and a little mirror in the middle of it (x) Look at all the paprika on this one (x) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sombreuil Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I can see why you'd think they were too pretty to eat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have something like this, too!!! But for Christmas and Easter our traditional cake is named "cozonac", I don't know how to name it in english ... looks like that: It's so full of calories, with nuts and chocolate, one gains kilos only looking at it! But so tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murieleirum Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Oooh cozonac! I love the fact that I'm learning so many foreign traditional dishes through this topic! Please keep it up <3 Since we are in Christmas theme, I'll let you in a very heated eternal Italian debate: for Christmas, we have two kinds of 'cake' (that look like your cake, @ralucutzagy): one is called Panettone and one is Pandoro. (Literally they mean "Big bread" and "Bread of Gold"). Panettone is slightly more buttery, heavy, and filled with raisins and candied fruit. Pandoro is light, fluffy and covered in icing sugar. And the world is thus divided into two: the ones who prefer Panettone and the ones who prefer Pandoro xD Here they are: Btw, I'm team Pandoro bc I don't like candied fruit <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the braver ones can enjoy the taste of candied fruit in a bite of soft sweet dough, so I bow to thee I bet Yuzu is a too picky eater and would choose Pandoro tho Actually, picturing Yuzu at a Christmas gathering is hard enough - in Japan, they eat fried chicken for Christmas, and Yuzu hardly eats anything fried, so what do they feed him??

I follow, like, more than 50 of them. I'm not kidding hahahah Lately, I've been obsessing over bento's. I love pretty food, I love eating in boxes, and I love Japan. So it's a winning formula for me. This channel does the prettiest bentos ever. Sometimes the mom will cook, sometimes the father, and sometimes they make their little bean kid cook stuff <3 Adorable and delicious. I've been obsessively watching videos from this channel now. Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
