    i have no bags. i am a disgrace to the female stereotype . . .

    and kathy: you're not alone! i like spiders too! at least, as long as they're not biting me.

    thanks for the muffins and flowers, Ozeed . . . i have a feeling that with all the food floating around, there isn't going to be a thin-girls club anymore!

    now mix them and put them for half an hour(or as u like)in ur hair. Then take a shower
    it has an effect of conditonner but it's natural .
    good luck...if u try it tell me the result so we can celebrate together
    I have used such conditioners (without the egg, I used a different thing, I dont know what is it called in English), and I can say it really works, and leaves hair shiney and with a lot of bounce and silky smooth.

    Hmmm, I guess I am going to have to try something like that conditioner then. (BTW miss T, the word in English for that part of the egg is called the yolk. )

    Actually, I am always intrigued when someone says something and they are not sure of the English word for it. If you guys would not mind, could you type the word in your native language and also what that language is? I can then take the word and look it up via an online translator and then will have learned a new word in another language. Of course some of these translators are a little weird.... I have some online friends from different countries and when I translate something they say with one of those things and then tell them what the translation was they are usually like "huh?"


    Oh yes, thanks Ozeed for the flowers and muffins....but you only get the best points if you bring chocolate.... (at least in my book )

    Okay,it's the kind of manicure that has two colors,actually same color but it's darker on the extra part of the nail(the long part if ur nails are long)if not,then on the upper part of the nail. When we say French,1st thing come to the mind the white color(not the dull,it looks really elegant)it's the most spread kind pf Manicure,but other colors can be used as well. U can google(French Manicure) maybe u'll see how it looks like. Very elegant….and hard to be mastered.

    Believe me this idea wont escape my mind, but tell u a secret, I do not know what is yolk in my native, I always call it the yellow part and when I took ur word yolk to my translator to see it’s Arabic synonym ,it translated to a real weird word that've never heard in my language . thanks for the help,Kath!

    Hello, I'm new here and I suppose it's not surprising that literature geeks are coffee junkies too. I thought I was the only one. Don't we all...

    I do hope I don't have to dress up to much to get a cuppa and a biscuit here, when I visit. You see, the only one of me that wears a tux and looks right is that sneering Mafia Penguin, The Godfeather. And he isn't proper company in a coffee house.

    BTW, my own hair continues to look more like Wolverine's every day. Maybe I should grow the sideburns, think so, bud? Snick!

    Gosh, no! Although I like tea as well. Caffeine lets me read and be on line well into the night. Welcome to the forum, yourasthma.

    Ok, I used the online translator and through the magic of technology I have found that besan is: "The flower or meal of pulse (particularly of chanā, Cicer arietinum)." Otherwise known as chick pea!!!!! Thanks madhuri.


    صفار is the result I got for "yolk". Whether or not that means the yellow center of an egg remains to be seen.

    Whatever feels comfortable for you....just having the Wolvernine do is plenty fancy enough in my book.

    Hello gals...

    Yes Kath yolk is the red part of the egg... Now I am really enjoying this girly thread because I am learning so many great receipes for the hair... I know one to make your hair stronger, when you have damaged hair from colours for example, or from the fan I used the olive oil together with yolk and it's very nice, especially if the olive oil is home made.
    Now about that french manicure, no worries Miss T you explained it really nice... and believe me Night french manicure makes your nails beautiful even if your nails short and have chubby fingers....
