How to Seed a Pomegranate

This is a post for my lovely girlfriends :)
One of the many things I learned in school, is how to seed a pomegranate with out the mess we usually do.
I know it's not much but I hope you get use of it as much as I did, that is if you like pomegranate :)

To get the seeds without spattering red juice everywhere, cut the pomegranate in half and submerge it in cool water. Pry out the seeds in handfuls, and transfer them to another bowl.

Well let me know how did it go and don't think that this is the only thing I'm learning in school ;)

RAINY DAY

SAVE IT FOR A RAINY DAY as my dear friend A asked me once:
When are you going to blog again? Or are you saving it for a rainy day :)
Well dear A it is a rainy day and it is hitting so hard, as some of you might know that I have moved to Miami to finish my BA, and a Hurricane called FAY is hitting us, but fortunately I'm in NY with with my favorite person as SH would say .. so I really don't have any thing to blog about it's just that I remembered A and her rainy day comment and I miss her a ton & I miss my SH too.

Answer my question?

Is LOVE a battle field?

100%

Tagged by Hanan
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
And
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But,
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+ 20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
And,
B-U-L-L- S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top!

Dad wrote: To all parents.....

The other day I watched an old home-film… In that film I saw my late mother, and that made me nostalgic to the old times, when I was young seeking her kindness and comfort... Those mothers, and fathers, who raised us, may be different human beings – Sometimes, I wonder if our generation of parents is as strong and kind as the generation of our parents. It is not easy for me to answer such a question, and I leave it to my children and others’, children to answer, however, we might not arrive at a specific conclusion.

On the other hand different generations might have certain sets of norms and behaviors that fit their specific era, and circumstances. Social and economic factors reflect on human attitudes and family relationships... Extended family form was the norm in Kuwait in the early decades of the 20th century. When I graduated from college in the late 60’s of last century, I found that my father built a new house with separate apartments or quarters, for each of us, the brothers. But then we moved in separate directions to different locations and separate houses…
I thought, then, that the concept of an extended family is done with in Kuwait.

It is true that brothers and sisters, along with their children, do meet occasionally, and communicate with family members, but is it the same? Anyway, one must always remember that it is hard to match his parents in their love and care. The level of love and care may differ according to time and place, but nothing can replace such love and care, especially if you were raised in a healthy social, and family environment.

This is dedicated to you Ali, with love..
