Golden splashes / 144

Hej there,

Golden splashes might work but gold in general is not really my taste. It’s surely beautiful, because it does attract loads of individuals. Gold is perceived as exclusive & communicates what you stand for or who you are…generally speaking. But I am not going to blog about gold in that sense, I am far too uninterested & ignorant. To ensure delivery of an entry in the theme of gold, I have to go after my interest, which is nearly nonexistent – which in turn means that I have to keep it simple. And keeping it simple in my case, means usually images of the ordinary - what is considered more standard & general. Well, I would probably not say that the first image is standard since it’s a hallway in gold but the others are.

When I think about it, it might not be so many who would agree on the third picture, either. It’s not often you walk around in a golden skirt. Hm, but on the other hand, the fifth image would also not work. It’s yet not very common with golden showers. Then, I suppose the picture there after wouldn’t count as ordinary since it’s a table in gold, at least a part of it. No wait, you know what, let’s not bother whether it’s normal & daily occurring stuff or not. You get to decide what you like, it is easiest that way. Here’s some golden splashes…

Guess who’s coming to dinner / 14

Hello friends,

I recently had a bunch of great people that came over & brought all food with them. It is quite common with potluck dinners here & a very nice way to socialise. (I think that it’s called potluck in English). It’s pretty fun & exciting to see what everyone has brought. It seems that most are weak for sweets, the table has often the tendency to get filled with desserts, for some reasons:) The only thing I had to do, were to welcome them to a clean & tidy house. Not bad huh? Well, of course I did some before they arrived, since I know that this team loves sweets. I had prepared Portuguese charcoal chicken so they got something substantial in the stomach too. It’s always a concern that the food will not be enough for all but there are always tons over, in the end.

I wouldn’t describe my self as an overly social person but I do really enjoy good company when all are there to hang out & have a good time together. It is a pleasure & a privilege to be with people you care about.What could be more fitting as a theme than a set table…for those who come for dinner.
