BEARD AND BUN NEW FASHION LINE FOR MEN

When I stroll through the streets today, many men wear beards, which was actually not fashionable at all in the past. Today the beardless can be counted on 10 fingers, the majority, old and young, wear a beard. Not a long one like my grandfather, where the soup always got stuck. That's probably why I don't like beards. 

But now since a while I also noticed that men also wear buns. My aunt Justine, my grandmother's sister, had a bun on her head pulling her hair back. Since she had huge sticky out ears, I was always afraid as a child that she would fly away. 

Last week I read an article about cavemen with a lot of pictures. And now I know where this fashion comes from ! Only 2,45 million years ago ! As we say fashion always comes back. Only I didn't know that it goes back so far !

WEEKEND

For me the first weekend after this horrible January was real nice ! My son and Toby came on Saturday noon and brought Hamburgers along, as unfortunately I had a real strong asthma attack, and the lightest effort left me breathless. When I didn't move it was OK. Anyway I absolutely have to go to the lung doctor. 

I was really sad that this had to happen to me this weekend. But still we happily ate our  hamburgers, then we chatted and laughed and Dario did all the little jobs I couldn't do, like lifting heavy things, opening stuck faucets, tidying up the basement a bit and then was dinner time.  

Fortunately I had 1 kg of Gnocchi in the freezer, with mozzarella, spinach, tomatoes etc, definitely a very filling dish. I had to put it in a huge salad bowl, and they ate it all !! What an appetite, I wasn't used to that anymore ! After supper they both went to the cinema, I preferred to stay home because I feared to get breathing problems and found it more careful to stay home. 

On Sunday we made it cool, everybody ate what he wanted for breakfast, Toby a yogurt, I my oat with blueberries, and Dario liked croissants. My son absolutely wanted to vacuum, which I thought was very nice of him, 

For lunch they both got a gyros plate from our Greek restaurant. The portions were huge !



Nonna and Toby show what they can do with their fingers !

Mother and child !

and so ended a nice weekend with doing nothing, at least I did nothing, but we had fun and that was good for all of us
