    It is a clumsy day again... when am I ever gonna learn that it's not a good idea to use a "grate sponge" (not sure what the English word would be) to clean something of my skin?! Every time I forget that it leaves (bloody) marks!

    At least you can't read what I wrote on my arm anymore...

    This is the sponges I'm talking about:

    Ouch! Every once in a while I try to take something out of the oven with my bare hands. A teensy bit painful, to say the least.

    You are not supposed to put the cabbage as a whole.

    Ehh yes you are for rolled cabbage leaves.
    Or I though so anyway. It worked. The leaves softed so I could take them off without damaging them.

    Although if I had thought ablout it properly I might have chosen to put the cabbage in the steam basket

    Tongs is a good idea, and I plan to buy some for next time.

    Well yellow gold platinum and the really really expensive stuff whats it called? now that is a yes anyday!
    Although truthfully I dont wear much jewlery, i have an allergy to most forms of silver, only kind Ive found that is ok is mexican grade silver. and I only wear a ring on a regular basis.
    I do like costume jewlery though, the more bizzare the better, although not chunky. pendants are good.
    Oh anklets and toe rings I also like, they don't get in my way like most other jewelry. ( I dont even wear a watch- I once got caught on a door handle and ended up with some nasty bruises. )
