Telling stories in a few words

10 secret pleasures

A toe-curling hot bath on a cold day

A crashing thunderstorm on a quiet afternoon

Salty cashew nuts and hot sugary tea

The smell of cooking in the evening air

The  soft soothing sounds of Indian Sitar chords

The embrace of the hot sun on my exposed skin

The sweeping rustle of leaves on a summers day

Hot chocolate sauce on cold whipped cream

Silky sheets against cool skin

As I slowly sink through ephemeral currents towards deep sleep…

What secret pleasures do you have?

No blogging tonight The Blacklist is on!

Yip, no blogging tonight! The Blacklist is about to come on. In SA it’s on Tuesdays, in the US it’s on Mondays.

We’re quite far behind the US at the moment – it’s always like that – we get the series long after it’s premiered in the States. We’re on episode 10 (Anslo Garrick – No. 16, part 2). Last night episode 17  (Ivan – No.88) aired in the US.

I am resisting the temptation of just downloading the whole series up to the most recent episode and watching it in a back-to-back squared-eyed Blacklist-fest.

This serialised-procedural (can I say that?) has gripped me. Intriguing. And there’s going be be a series 2! Yayness!

Love it, just love it!

See you tomorrow!
