Of House Elves and Children's Tales

"That which Voldemort does not value, he takes no trouble to understand. Of house-elves and children's tales, of love, loyalty, and innocence, Voldemort knows and understands nothing. Nothing. That they all have a power beyond his own, a power beyond the reach of any magic, is a truth he has never grasped."
- Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows

An excerpt from Sula by Toni Morrison

"With the exception of BoyBoy, those Peace women loved all men. It was manlove that Eva bequeathed to her daughters. Probably, people said, because there were no men in the house, no men to run it. But actually, that was not true. The Peace women simply loved maleness, for it's own sake."

Toni Morrison

Little do we know what we are meant for.
The great, the menial, the averagely boring.
For we are spirits of another sort.

Procastranation

Since every blogger worth his/her web space has done a post on exams/board exams/final semesters I thought I’d might as well jump on the bloody BEST bus (I have never seen a bandwagon myself; however, I have ridden a BEST bus, that felt like my waistband after an all-you-can-eat, countless times)



Ya, so I’ve noticed I’d do anything to not study



item 1: call people: I’m anti-social once home, I hate phone calls. plus I’m half-gujju, so this one’s BIG!



item 2: calling people I wouldn’t call even if my life depended on it: sad, but true



item 3: meeting people I wouldn’t usually be caught dead with: if you think this is you, it probably is it’s not. It’s that other moron I can’t stand.



item 4: housework *the horror*



item 5: go shopping: ha ha almost got you there! No child, shopping comes AFTER bunny torture and crash dieting.



item 6: writing worthless blog posts that no one’s ever going to read. probably not even me.




p.s.- Procrastination is known to have led to castration. Be Warned!

Why Baileys is better than Milk

Since you can’t get straighter than I have with the title let’s just move on. Full steam ahead !(hope you didn’t have a heavy breakfast)




1) It’s sweet. Adding sugar/chocolate/caramel to milk doesn’t have quite the same effect.


2) After a dinner of chicken in fancy sauces, 3 kinds of wine and Peking duck you’d be glad to round it off with a nice little bout of Bailey’s. Milk, not so much.


3) If taken in adequate quantities can take you to a happy place. Milk will only make you thank god for coffee beans.


4) Makes for some damn good coffee. There’s just so much you can say for milk.


5)Karen* puts it in her cereal. ‘nuff said!

p.s.- I do realise the above is painfully obvious, but I harbour a deep love for Baileys. And Milk Karen.
