Of course, we here are all interested in those complex and beautiful feats of micro-engineering called watches, but sometimes it is nice to just revel in simple pleasures, don't you think? What are some of your favorite simple pleasures? Bubble baths? The...
South Park cracks me up! It's sooo offensive, but in an equal opportunity sort of way. One of my favorite South Park moments is when Cartman sings "Morning Train." Ehehehehe! Cheers, Daos
that episode was mind bending hilarious, and what made it even funnier for me is that my brother was on a diet when they aired that episode and he had overdone it so grossly that he quite literally looked like the Ethiopian kid X). Good thing is all the m...
They are discovering something new each day! It is so amazing to watch them experience even the simplest things for the first time! How wonderful! Daos
mimicking everything that i do in facial expression, speech and she will play and use her finger to point and pick up the smallest things, she will eat everything and try everything, without watching she will want to jump few feet from my bed to hers. I c...

My mom would agree with you that #1 of your post is very therapeutic. My parents living room is starting to look like a greenhouse with all her orchids. I could see how polishing shoes would also be good for decompressing, although I prefer #3 better! #4 ...

I will be united with my Gudang Garam Kreteks soon...wahahaha...Cigarettes are such...when you don't think about the health effects, they are man's best companion- whether serving time in the war front, or by the beach with a mojito.
....I can't believe I only discovered the 'cold-water to stop the green ring' about 6 months ago...I prefer mine really hard boiled, with a sprinkle of salt...simple pleasures, indeed.
...using Martha's method by leaving the eggs in the hot water for 20 minutes after boiling and removing from heat. I will have to try that next time and see how I enjoy the texture versus my 12 minute egg. Do you like deviled eggs? That's my all-time favo...
...Eggs. I haven't had those for ages! My grandmother use to make them with curry and yes, I loved them. Never made them myself, as the flavour wouldn't have matched hers.
One of my friends who is a cat lover saw Big Boy on my Facebook page and thought he was the cutest, fluffiest kitty ever! Cheers, Daos This message has been edited by dxboon on 2011-05-05 23:34:25
...good quality pizza needs nothing more than cheese and sauce. For me, pizza is about the dough. That pizza in your photo looks delicious. Cheers, Daos
I just learned in the past few years that little things count more and never take anything for granted. Which also make our passion for horology more special=D
Hi Daos, your yummy pics made me have two hard boiled eggs for breakfast - a really simple pleasure if combined with a fresh butter role and some salt! I like the bread, cheese and wine combination which may be supplemented with a tomato or some grapes: I...
