OTHER QUOTES & POSTS IN SYMPHONY OF LOVE


1. 45 Lessons Life Taught Me by Regina Brett
 : A column which Regina Brett wrote when she turned 45
and have since been one of the most requested columns. This has also
been circulating in emails, Facebook etc and somehow her age was
sensationalized; in the circulation emails and Facebook's sharing, she
was projected as a 90 years old lady. This is also recommended a weekly
read in the Facebook's sharing. I am sharing this for your benefit as it
has to me.

2. Live, so you do not have to look back and say: "God, how I have
wasted my life." - Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

5. To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than
luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not
respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk
gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages,
with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions,
hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual unbidden and unconscious
grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.  - William Henry
Channing

6. Start by doing what is necessary. Then do what is possible. And
suddenly you are doing the impossible. - St. Francis of Assisi

7. Stay is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary. - Louise May Alcott

I tried using a razor many years ago and ended up cutting myself. Also the hair 
grew back pretty prickly in the perianal and scrotal areas - made red rashes 
down there, itchy and painful. 
Perhaps I should have asked you for help AsfanJi    :p

[asfan]

Dear All,
I was in communication with and, had even met, the fellow who called himself 
"Little Prince".  I have lost track of him and his Facebook page has been 
closed.
 
I am rather worried about him.  If any of you could inform me as to how I could 
get in contact with him would you please email me at asfa...@yahoo.com ?  I 
would be most grateful.
 
Thanks,
 
Asfan.

g_b QueerPots: Delicious Grilled Chicken with Peach

[Aditya]

Recipe: Delicious grilled chicken
Melissa D'costa,TNN | Jan 8, 2013, 12.00AM IST 

Recipe: Delicious grilled chicken
Ravi Sharma, owner of Elbo Room tells you how to prepare grilled chicken with 
peach sauce

Grilled chicken with peach sauce (serves 8)
Ingredients:
8 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups peach preserves
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon mustard
4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

Method:
- Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Season chicken 
breast halves with salt and black pepper.

- Stir peach preserves, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, and mustard in a bowl; 
season with salt and black pepper. Reserve about 1/2 cup peach sauce.

- Place chicken on preheated grill; cook until golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes, 
then flip chicken. Continue cooking for 5 to 6 minutes. Brush both sides of the 
chicken with peach sauce. Cook until no longer pink in the center and the 
juices run clear, 4 to 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted 
into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

- Arrange peach halves cut side down on the grill. Grill for 2 minutes, flip, 
and brush with reserved 1/2 cup peach sauce. Continue to grill until peaches 
are tender, 3 to 4 minutes more.

Re: g_b Re: [gb] Have you ever asked your barber?

[Tintin Mumbai India]

No dude

I never said that everyone enjoy it.
Infact I planned to 'conduct' the poll in my way Rather than making the
opinion with limited thinking...

It is same like
Shh... No da, Dont ask what is masturbate... Baba Ramdev and my papa and
my... Said that it is harmful... No matter how educated we are... We dont
use common sense.

What is big deal if I asked ppl's opinion about my doubt?

Wake up dude...
Dont be a conservative 'da'...
Think hatke...
