Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This....

Recipe: Cut an apple into portions;

Place on a plate;

Add some large juicy grapes;

Cut a kiwi into half and add to the plate;

Pour a river of honey on to the fruit until it forms a lake beneath it;

Stand back, look into the future and wish yourselves and the world well.

May this be a beginning of peace, health and much sweetness to you, yours and all! Posted by Picasa

OOOOPS - took me only 14 hours to realise that I had forgotten to activate comments. Tant pis, paciência, non importa & never mind. It changes nothing, since everything has a time, though not everything has a word.
I would like to take this opportunity however for thanking Rob Fazio for his words yesterday in respect of my post to commemorate 9/11.
To the entire world, his father became one of a specific, hitherto unimagined, unthinkable number that day. A number that didn't begin that day and certainly did not end. In this multi-faceted phenomenon that we call 'globalisation', terrorism is not excluded. So, the deaths of innocents continue to mount throughout the continents. Perhaps, on this day when I wish peace and sweetness to all peoples wherever they are, it doesn't seem appropriate to think this, butI can't help it. Just in the past 5 years, how many? In how many places? In the Middle East alone, In Iraq alone, the numbers of dead are inconceivable. What, tens, hundreds of thousands? Add just Russia, Chechenya; pause. Add India, Pakistan, Kashmir; Pause again. Bali, Madrid, Sri Lanka, Philippines, London, Istanbul; pause. And add & add & add. This is before we even start to think of the wars and conflicts in Africa. What good would one global day of remembrance do? It would not stop it.
This is just because I started as I wrote to consider what globalisation means and how there has been a marked globalisation of terror since 2001.
"There is a time for every purpose under heaven...". Maybe that is why I have subconsciously chosen to wish the world sweetness and peace. It is no empty wish. Surely everybody knows that destruction is far easier to achieve than construction?.
So I repeat what I wrote 14 days ago. Live and let live, that is all. that is the only way.

Oh ! Bonjour Mile Stones, nous nous sommes croisés chez eric et aussi chez mlle p !
Je suis étonnée par la beauté de tes photos, si gaies aussi, si lumineuses.
Tu as de beaux sujets: ce chat joueur et ces paysages magnifiques. Ces bateaux colorés. Et aussi la clarté du matin qui enjolive tout. Bravo.
J'apprécie aussi que tu parles et écrive le français.
Je suis contente que tu sois passé chez moi. Je t'en remercie, et je te dis "à bientôt".

that is why I couldn´t comment this morning.
Well now, a wonderful way to start the day, the words and pictures

Before I read your comment, I thought, breckie!!! but now I'm not so sure. It really frustrates me that some people make $ out of wars, and it's in their interest to keep wars going all over, as if natural disasters and horrible dictatorships don't bring enough grief. Personally, I can't even imagine what kind of people would want to make weapons for a living - do they get up one morning, and say: I think I'd like to start a bomb/gun/tank factory?

Jolie photos!

Je me souviens les phrases de une chanson drôle qui a dit : Sweet dreams are made of cheese...

mais les fruits sont parfois plus mieux...

;)

Alors mes notes, cela vous donne à penser?

Invitan a comerse... Y tienen algo de sensualidad, que curioso.

P said...

That looks delicious and now I am going to make myself a nice dish of this! I forget sometimes how good honey tastes on fruit.

P said...

is everything ok? just an absorbing work?

Emmanuelle said...

To be honest I don't like fruits much, but with hiney - should be something extraordinary!

Emmanuelle said...

Oops! j'ai dû écrire - "Honey"

Loca said...

Looks sweet, for me please without the honey, to much sweet on it!
