My day: Food, glorious food! Shoes!!! Bond!!!

Nov 21, 2006 19:39

+ I am having a great day!! I had a "rethink" on Friday and decided that I must go to bed in a good time (before 12 pm) , no matter how much I want to watch the lovely things I have been watching lately. And I must make myself to go to the park with the dog at least once a day (good for me, good for the dog) to keep my RSIs away. And it seems that ( Read more... )

I want Chinese food. Also, your shoes. They are fabulous. The colour! The style! SO AWESOME!

(I love Jasmine Tea and I always order that chicken and sweetcorn soup. There's something really comforting about.)

And huzzah for James Bond! I do hope that you enjoyed it!!!

I can't believe I am in love with JAMES BOND! Oh my gosh! Daniel Craig is unbelievable! I don't have anything coherent to say!!! Apart from that I think I am going to watch "Casino Rayale" again! And blueness of eyes - I think it was somehow artificially increased, but I don't care!!!

I love Jasmine Tea

I bought some "Green Peach" Whittards tea leafs today too. Lovely, lovely tea is my weakness!

They are fabulous. The colour! The style! SO AWESOME!

I am so glad you like them!

Isn't he marvelous? I noticed his blue blue eyes in The Ice House years ago and thought, "Why doesn't everyone know this man??".

And I just ordered Chinese food for dinner - YUM.

The shoes are so stylish and fun - I love that vibrant colour, adding one item that gives your whole outfit "sparkle"!

I just had a sleep, but my infatuation hasn't disappeared. OMPH! BLUE EYES! What a pity one has to go to work and church and can't just spend days in watching Bond. I absolutely recommend "Archangel" (BBC drama), Daniel Craig is as close as it could be to his Bond persona in it.

They are a prt with my intense-coloured coat (I have written about it here:http://alexandral.livejournal.com/2005/11/18/). I loooove vibrant colours!

And those pictures have made me hungry all afternoon!

I am going to the Chinese restaurant again tomorrow - one of the guys from work is leaving. :P

And while I cannot imagine how heels are ever that comfortable, those shoes are quite cute! :)

You, I find steady heels easy to walk in. Absolutely flat shoes give me ache in a middle of my sole. Ok, at least this is my excuse. :)

Mmmm I love Chinese food. Jasmine tea is so good. But that is the case for most Chinese tea, too :) I also love Oolong, but for black tea my fave is Twinings Earl Grey (yeah sorry about the rambling there, LOL). Another thing I love about going to Chinese restaurants (and most other fancy restaurants) is that they use really nice china. I *love* fine china! ;) If they weren't so expensive I'd be an avid collector, LOL. As for the turning tables, they are actually very common in most Chinese homes. My friend (who is partly Chinese) has one like that in her home.

Alexander, you just made me very hungry!!! ^o^

EEEEE! Any talk about TEA is good for me. :D I like Earl Grey too - many guys at work have some milk with it (not my way - I think it should be drunk black **grin**)

I love love love China too. We collect bone china coffee cups at home.

Thank you so much for the information - I did have a feeling the tables are traditional. YAY! I want one at home! It is not like we need it or anything, just three of us.

I have this fascination with tea and coffee. If I drink alcohol, I imagine I'd probably have a really sensitive palate ;) I like drinking Chinese tea without sugar, but Earl Gray is nice with sugar and a hint of lemon :D Have you tried Lady Grey though? The aroma is interesting but nothing beats Earl Grey! ^o^

I collect bone china too! My faves are Royal Doulton and Noritake (Japanese). They're usually so beautiful :p

I don't drink alcohol, almost never. I agree - Earl Grey goes well with sugar ( I haven't tried lemon, but I will next time - any black tea or coffee tastes great with lemons). I like LAdy Grey too - we have about 20 different varieties of tea at work. I will make a photo one day :)

Quite few of our little coffee cups are Royal Dalton, I love it!! (and I am sure to find more about Noritake !!)

Ooops. Sorry for spelling your name wrongly "Alexandra" :)

Oh, don't worry at all! This name comes from Leonard Cohen's song I adore - "Alexandra Leaving". I took it as my username, but now I wish I had it in full - alexandra_leaving. It gets people confused with 1 and l looking the same.

So is it your real name, though?

*makes puppy eyes* I love asian food! and your pics made me feel so hungry...so I think today I'll eat some Chinese food, and my mom is looking at your pics, too, and she's telling me "oh dear, we MUST go to the Chinese take-away, I just can't resist"!
hmmmm. self-discipline. I should try.
