We're Number Two!

National Geographic lists Jamaica's national dish, Ackee and Saltfish (yum!) as number 2 on its Top Ten National Dishes list!  Second only to the U.S. hamburger, in their opinion.  I would venture to disagree!

Beautiful Language

I just came across this list of the ten most beautiful words in the English language, as proposed by the writer, Wilfred J. Funk, in 1932.

Melody
Golden
Chimes
Luminous
Mist
Tranquil
Murmuring
Lullaby
Hush
Dawn

Just reading them out loud brings such a feeling of calm and peace.  One that I think is missing from the list though is "Grace".

What would be on your list?

My Mirror

Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child.

Way Back Home

I love Scotland.  I love nature, open views, vistas... evocative music and excellent storytelling.  I am not an extreme sports enthusiast, not any more than the average person anyway.  But this film is simply breathtaking and left me speechless.

What Are The Hardest Languages To Learn

Some real surprises here. I would never have thought of Dutch or Norwegian as easy languages to learn. Italian though, definitely!

What do you think?
