Your guide for choosing gifts
May 7, 2010

I don’t know whether to be flattered or offended that officials at the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) are studying aerial photographs of my garden. Maybe they would like to come round next time the village has an “open gardens” day. I would love to show them the wild meadow effect I am creating beneath the cherry trees and the explosion of spring flowers on what used to be the concrete patio

Who was the lucky recipient of a floating diamond necklace from Jason of Beverly Hills, a Louboutin Spike Purse, a pair of Gucci Anaconda, Louboutin BoBo and Let Me Tell You Something shoes? All of this loot went to one lucky Cheryl Burke on her birthday – all gifts from her Dancing With The Stars partner, Chad OchoCinco! This on TOP of the $10,000 diamond ring he gave her a few weeks ago. I guess this Twitpic Chad took of the lucky lady says is all.

Blood Diamonds or Conflict Diamonds are a major source of discussion both within the jewelry industry and about the jewelry industry. I have always been disgusted by what goes on in some African countries that gives some diamonds the mark of being blood diamonds so I try to educate myself on how to avoid diamonds coming out of those countries. Diamonds that are designated as conflict diamonds come out of countries where people are killed and maimed over diamonds.

We are talking Soccer and South African Cape Malay cuisine in this post. If you are a soccer fan,you might already know South Africa is the honored host of World cup Soccer 2010 .Soccer runs in my family,I was no Mia Hamm,but was deeply influenced by the game from my daddy dearests soccer passion.He had immense skill at the game, played for his school team,that gave him an athletic persona.He continues his passion ,follows the world cup series closely.I remember the nights he stayed awake ,when the world cup games were aired at odd mid-night hours.The passion is passed on to my son Nabeel,who is beginning to show interest in the game.I get the title of soccer mom,for being there for all his games,rain or shine.I also love practicing the game with him,not to mention,gives me a good work out. Now, to be good at the game,a well-balanced meal is essential.That brings us to the recipe of the day.Bredie,a luscious slow cooked tomato and lamb stew,one of the most favored dishes of the South African Cape Malay Cuisine,that is rich in protein and has good serving of vegetables.Bredie is best devoured with Yellow rice(brown rice preferably) and stir fried vegetables on side and some fresh sliced mangoes for a sweet finish.A meal that my daddy dearest would wholly appreciate.I know he is watching his cholesterol and is low on red meat,which is why I use lean meat for the recipe with vegetarian alternative.

Since I’m on a quest to find the striped fabric (or something pretty darn similar) that is on my $8 garage sale chairs, I’ve been scouring the websites of different fabric companies. My search has yet to reveal that particular striped fabric, but I have found some pretty amazing fabrics.

In honor of my grandfather, who passed away yesterday at the tender age of 93, I thought I’d post a few photographs. He was a kind and generous man who was always upright in his dealings and loved to surround himself with family. He was not a member of the Church (my mother is a convert), but he led a moderate and principled life that will continue to serve as an example to me. His memory will be carried by his children and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. This last fall, my wife and I were lucky enough to sneak away to Switzerland with our son and spend some time with him while he was still in good health. Here we are visiting the grave of my late grandmother–my grandfather’s wife of 65 years. by Marc Bohn ___ These pictures are part of our ongoing series highlighting Mormon images.
