You know those songs that you hear, and they just make you happier?
Well here's a little list of what songs make me feel better...
500 Miles - Proclaimers : Funny song, sang by funny Scotishmen. You've probably heard it once in your life.
Waltzing Matilda - uh..whoever feels like it! : Australia's unofficial national anthem. The perfect song to sing with everyone in a bar while swashing and swing mugs of beer in your merriment.
Big Yellow Taxi - Counting Crows : I don't know why, but this song eases my mind.
Kiss Me - Sixpence None The Richer : Cute song with lyrics that I only hope to experience; this song is definitely in my top 5. It never falls to make me happier.
Juliet - LMNT : It's so much fun to sing!
Any Capoeira song : Because they're fun and upbeat
Alles Roger - Sportfreunde Stiller : I don't know why
Alles Neu - Peter Fox : It's a good song, kay?
There's definitely more, but I can't remember what else at the moment, and even if i could it'd be obnoxious to write them all here, so there you have it :)
Hope you can enjoy these songs as much as I do!
Also, forgot to add:
Quelqu'un m'a Dit - Carla Bruni

For Nick :)
Kay, so you wanted a post. I'll give you one!
As of 6:30 all I've been able to think about is sex with my boyfriend.. lol sad right? of and how much I loooove cuddling :P
But since I know you don't want to hear about it, I shall speak about other topics.
Mmmmm...rice. I love rice. Seeing as I'm latin, I've grown up with rice, so it makes sense that I love it, but it has come to my attention that Americans don't know how to make good, flavorful rice. The thing is that you have to stir the (long grained) rice in with olive oil and roasted garlic first before adding the water, and that, my friend(s), will give you a-mazing rice. Or you can do it Spanish style with all the herbs and spices, or boil it with chicken/vegetable broth, or even get some short grained stuff and throw in a splash of rice vinegar to get some Japanese sticky rice. Oh! speaking of sticky rice, I've recently bought some "purple sticky rice" from Whole Foods. Now I have to cook it and see if it's any good (but it'll definitely be pretty!).
And then there's rice flour, which can do wonderful things. Rice flour is used in a lot of Asian desserts such as rice cakes and mochi (especially good on Red Mango yogurt :P). And also rice pudding, which is delicious! I actually bought some great vegan rice pudding today :D.
Ever since the days of my childhood I loved rice; white rice and black beans was my absolute favorite food (and still is up there in my book!)
If you don't eat rice, then you're missing out in life. Really, you are.
I guess there's more to say about rice, but at the moment I don't care to write it, so I'll continue another day :)
