I think it is a bit of a rough town....at least my uncle thinks so....of course he lives in a retirement community so to him every other town is 'rough'

Salami is more fatty I thought? I suppose it would vary? I like the taste of pepperoni better.

But I am a ham and pineapple pizza girl, so what do I know?

I think they are different because salami is good an pepperoni tastes like heartburn?

That sounds like an answer I would come up with!!!

On Valentine's Day, we had dinner at an Italian place called That's Amore. The menu basically offered two different kinds of "salami" pizza -- the diavola, which it described as having salami and crushed red pepper, and the pepperoni, which it described as having salami without the crushed red pepper. I got the diavola, and it was really good. The meat was sliced super thin and it was almost crisp. It wasn't greasy at all.

OK, so I totally misread these words as "red belly salami." I thought to myself, "I wonder what red belly salami is," and then I moved on. It wasn't until coming back now and rereading it that I see it is "really bad salami."

Funny how I just mentally accepted "red belly salami."

On the tv show CSI, with all of the training they have why is it they can never find the light switch in the places they go. They must go thru a gazillion flashlight batteries.

En la India enseñan las "Cuatro Leyes de la Espiritualidad"

La primera dice: "La persona que llega es la persona correcta", es decir que nadie llega a nuestras vidas por casualidad, todas las personas que nos rodean, que interactúan con nosotros, están allí por algo, para hacernos aprender y avanzar en cada situación.

And for his next trick, Sammy will translate that into English for the non-fluent speaking/reading Spanish members of the forum....

Spent the afternoon putting together the kids B-Day present. She is turning 29 and is starting to cook at home. We put together 70 of the recipes from home into a binder for her. All of the stuff we regularly cook when she was growing up.
Think she will like it a bunch.

since you like that one, here are the others
i am sad to say that some people reject this idea and thus miss many opportunities to know themselves better and evolve as people

En la India enseñan las "Cuatro Leyes de la Espiritualidad"

La primera dice: "La persona que llega es la persona correcta", es decir que nadie llega a nuestras vidas por casualidad, todas las personas que nos rodean, que interactúan con nosotros, están allí por algo, para hacernos aprender y avanzar en cada situación.

La segunda ley dice: "Lo que sucede es la única cosa que podía haber sucedido". Nada, pero nada, absolutamente nada de lo que nos sucede en nuestras vidas podría haber sido de otra manera. Ni siquiera el detalle más insignificante. No existe el: "si hubiera hecho tal cosa...hubiera sucedido tal otra...". No. Lo que pasó fue lo único que pudo haber pasado, y tuvo que haber sido así para que aprendamos esa lección y sigamos adelante. Todas y cada una de las situaciones que nos suceden en nuestras vidas son perfectas, aunque nuestra mente y nuestro ego se resistan y no quieran aceptarlo.

La tercera dice: "En cualquier momento que comience es el momento correcto". Todo comienza en el momento indicado, ni antes, ni después. Cuando estamos preparados para que algo nuevo empiece en nuestras vidas, es allí cuando comenzará.

Y la cuarta y última: "Cuando algo termina, termina". Simplemente así. Si algo terminó en nuestras vidas, es para nuestra evolución, por lo tanto es mejor dejarlo, seguir adelante y avanzar ya enriquecidos con esa experiencia. Creo que no es casual que estén leyendo esto, si este texto llegue a nuestras vidas hoy; es porque estamos preparados para entender que ningún copo de nieve cae alguna vez en el lugar equivocado!

Vive Bien, Ama con todo tu Ser y se Inmensamente Feliz! "Si un día tienes que elegir entre el mundo y el amor, recuerda si eliges el mundo quedarás sin amor, pero si eliges el amor, con él conquistarás al mundo.

Feliz Fin de Semana
