Women Sensual Wallpaper

And what is your shoe size madam?

Last week was officially the most depressing week in the year, some believe. As Christmas seems like a distance memory and the bills are coming in thick and fast and still no sight of pay day. However, here is something that will put a smile on so many faces and certainly a dream come true to many women :)

Some genius thought that as women love shoes and chocolate, what not combine the two together? So, welcome to your designer chocolate shoe collections. Fantastic art and comes at a great price as well. You will need to find a strong heart to face eating these designer shoes! and the good thing is, You can buy only 1 shoe and not a pair.

Hairy day 2

After the success of hairy day, here is the sequel. I am glad to report that I was offered another hair colour free of charge together with an apology to correct what happened before (see previous blog).
Funnily enough, I was the one who was apologising about complaining and I made a note to myself: be happy with whatever they do today, do not book another appointment soon and relay on yourself (as I used to) to do my own colouring.
The end results were good, mind you, it is “colour that respect your hair”, never mind respect the customer, however, I am glad that I do not have to wear a hat for going outside anymore :)

Logic or what?

Found these on you tube and thought I will share them with you.





(I think the answer to this post title is "what")

Gingerbread "person" anyone?

This is the last straw I think. The news that we are now supposed to change the name of gingerbread man to gingerbread person or gingerbread people as it is not politically correct anymore.

I don’t like gingerbread anyway (nothing personal really) but I had so much fun helping in my local school with making gingerbread man with the kids, it was fun and messy experience. I was trying to follow the recipe while running after the kids who are trying to taste the dough that had raw eggs and stopping others from dipping their toys in the honey or making tracks on the floor with the flour. However, eventually we made the gingerbread man and they were really nice.

So what is the problem with calling them gingerbread man? And who exactly got offended by that? And where is all this political correctness taking us? and what is next? protest against snowman? Most women -in my opinion- do not actually mind what we call those ginger cookies, and it is not– as far as I am concerned - an equality problem in anyway. When God created us both men and women, He created us on His image, equal in His sight. Equal in being sinful, equal in our need to His grace, equal in being human and equal in our need to be accepted and loved. But saying that, He gave us different talents and different characters and so different ways to contribute and make a difference.

So when it comes to fitting that IKAE bookcase with instructions that only an expert in Egyptology can read and understand (as it seems to be in Hieroglyphics), men are well talented to do that and most women will have no problem accepting that. On the other hand, cooking, tidying and baking “gingerbread man” is enjoyable and women love doing that. I might be still sticking to the old stereotype but I believe that the issue is not who does what or what do we call things, gingerbread men or postman or chairperson etc. The point is that we are all accepted as equal in God’s eyes and that if I was the only woman on earth , Jesus would have still died for me and for my sin. It does not matter who does the ironing, what matter is that we are equal in being people who need to be loved and accepted as we are.

Women only please!

As king Abdulla visits the UK ,(the queen is cooking halal food tonight!), protests about human rights and the treatment of women have started, so here are some photos only for women, believing in our rights to drive (and park), wear make up and having the toilet seat down "at all times"!

Photo opportunity

I think this is just appropriate after my last post. Here is Laura Bush with some breast cancer survivors in Abu Dhabi. Sure it is a photo opportunity to have your photo taken with the first lady,and I think it is great as so many people can claim that they are in this photo!

Bodykini, anyone..?

OK, here we go, burka vs. bikini, a photo taken on the streets of Lebanon, and the question is: which one feels more uncomfortable?
There was an article (published in Arabic) about a wife who is now asking for a divorce because her husband tried to uncover her face by removing her burka in her sleep. He did not see her face throughout 30 years of marriage and just wanted to see what she looked like. In some tribes, girls have their faces covered from the age of 2 or 3, so it becomes part of their normal life and even when a woman gets married and have kids, her face remains covered as it is seen to be so privet and part of her personal honor. But what is like to wear a burqa? Journalist Asne Seierstad stayed with an Aphgani family after the fall of the Taliban and wrote about her experience in “The book seller of Kabul”. This is her take on wearing the burka “how it pinches the head and causes headaches, how difficult it is to see anything through the grille. How enclosed it is, how all the time you have to be aware of where you are walking because you cannot see your feet, what a lot of dirt it picks up, how dirty it is, how much in the way”. So this is the practical side of things, but what about what it does to your well being, ideas, emotions and mind set etc.?
But in the age of the internet you can find fulfillment to all your needs, “A bodykini”, a special swim suits if burqas is what you usually wear!(not sure what to do your face though?)

Yes, women CAN drive !
