Happy Holidays! If you haven't seen me around MyEC for a few days, it's because I've been busy baking, cooking, eating, and celebrating the holidays with my family and friends. One of the best things about holiday time is enjoying delicious food that we only make once a year. This month, let's teach each other how to make a dish, dessert, or snack that we enjoy on special occasions. If enough members join this challenge, I'll make a recipe eBook or slideshow out of our collection!

Quiet Christmas I ever had.

My Christmas was a quiet one.  I stayed home the whole day.  No one came to visit.  All because my children were busy with their own preparation and celebration with friends and relatives.  

Am I lonely?  Am  I sad?  No.  In fact, it was a restful Christmas Day for me.  It was the first time that I had a quiet and restful Christmas day.  I spent the day watching concert on television.  I liked EWTN broadcast.  I listened with gusto to the many beautiful Christmas carols.  I spent long time watchi

English is Not Only English

Hey, that sounds a bit odd ... English is not only English. What does that mean?

When I learnt English at school, I also learnt Latin, some French, and Latin and Greek roots. Learning Latin and Greek roots was the most useful addition to English because English isn't a pure language.

You see, English is a combination of numerous other languages, even some Arabic. By having an understanding of Latin and Greek roots, it is easier to work out what English words are similar and from where they evolved

My Christmas (including my own pictures)

I love Christmas time, the magic atmosphere, which makes us stop for a while and enjoy these awesome days full of love, peace and happiness. In my country Christmas is lately something I would say more related to the traditions than to the religion.

Everything starts at the beginning of November but usually in December the real Christmas shopping fever controls almost everyone. The malls turn into the places with colorful decoration, lights blink in every corner and meanwhile you do the shopping

My New Obsession

When I was chatting with an EC member a few days ago, I talked about my new hobby. He said why didn't I write a blog about it. So, here we go! This blog is dedicated to Crocodil3 who asked me to write about it. To Allen with whom I spent many chat hours talking about my new hobby.

How many ways we could laugh.

 Yesterday when I was getting back home and crossing a busy road near of my house, I heard a ripple of laughter. That laughter swept my mind! Anyway, as I was in a hurry, I didn't look back but It swayed me. After that, I went up through the staircases. And when I just reached in front of my front door and tried to unlace the door lock. Then, suddenly I looked back and found there was a person who just chuckled at me. But, In a trice, he disappeared! Being  a bit nervous I entered into my room,

Beware it can hurt, too!

No doubt love consummates those who are deep in love. It doesn't decay life rather it blossoms it. Without love who is happy? If you don't know the love, you don't live. You cannot exchange the love with money , nor yet with other material. If the love is in your soul, you must know that it is phenomenal. You cannot explain it.. It is a feeling most of the time seems illogical. You cannot avert it. After being in love all become different. If the love comes to you, you are happy, BUT BE CAREFUL,
