Simple Pleasures
By: dxboon : May 1st, 2011-21:30
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...
One of them is....

South Park and I've just got to embed this clip as it's extraordinarily appropriate for this rather jubilant moment in time X)....
Awesome!
By: dxboon : May 1st, 2011-22:00
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
Hahaha,
By: InHavenPro : May 1st, 2011-22:06
there is really more truth in South Park then in any other content I've ever seen on television .

Couldn't find....

the Morning Train clip but I did find this one XD.......
Hehehehe!

I also like when the South Park boys adopted an Ethiopian orphan. Cheers, Daos
LMAO,
By: InHavenPro : May 1st, 2011-22:47
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...
How sweet!
By: dxboon : May 2nd, 2011-07:06
That does look like a nice day -- perfect coffee with your sweetheart! Cheers, Daos

When it comes to food, a few slices of sopressata, a freshly baked baguette, some nice pate, and a ice cold coke works well! -MW
Soppressata...
By: dxboon : May 2nd, 2011-07:07
...is probably my favorite coldcut! Your meal sounds delightful! Cheers, Daos
Coke and Paté
By: mrsnak : May 2nd, 2011-17:33
Not my first choice for a meal, but I've never tried it.
That is a fun age for kids.
By: dxboon : May 2nd, 2011-07:09
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
Hehehe!
By: dxboon : May 3rd, 2011-07:22
Enjoy these early days, my friend! They will fly by! I always feel like each passing year time goes by even faster! Cheers, Daos
You should get your watches adjusted more often!
By: AndrewD : May 3rd, 2011-19:42
"...each passing year time goes by even faster." You can combat this by changing routines. Trick your brain into thinking you are doing something unique every day and it will change your perception of time. Andrew
Hmmm.
By: dxboon : May 3rd, 2011-22:36
Must try this! Cheers, Daos
La Dolce Vita indeed!
By: dxboon : May 2nd, 2011-07:12
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 ...
one dog is good...2 dogs will be horror
By: Cookies : May 2nd, 2011-08:02
Yes, dogs are indeed man's best friend. Malcolm Gladwell said in his book "what the dog saw" that dogs see humans as a gigantic tennis ball, and I totally agree. They mimick, taunt, beg and amuse me all the time. #4 will come soon if I get to go to Bali, ...
Gudang Garam

...I have tins of those! "The real kretek for the real smoker".... Though I usually puff on Sampoerna when o'seas.
very soon
By: Cookies : May 2nd, 2011-18:06
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.
Love it!

So I have a brand bias, but I'll exercise some restraint in favor of appreciating this simple pleasure: The perfect yeast raised glazed doughnut!...
yum!

I have to admit that Krispy Kreme is very addicting! Dang, no I have to go make a run to get a box............. -MW
Cold water...
By: BDLJ : May 2nd, 2011-16:23
....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.
"Really hard boiled" can probably be achieved...
By: dxboon : May 3rd, 2011-07:13
...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...
Deviled...
By: BDLJ : May 4th, 2011-17:07
...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.
I've never tried...
By: dxboon : May 4th, 2011-23:24
...putting curry powder in them. Good idea. I sometimes put Sriracha in my yolk mixture to really make the eggs devilish! Cheers, Daos
Hahahaha! No shame!
By: dxboon : May 2nd, 2011-23:24
Look at that second photo! Big Boy is so comfortable there. Reign sleeps like that sometimes. He is a cute kitty! Cheers, Daos
Is Big Boy...
By: dxboon : May 3rd, 2011-09:50
...a Maine Coon? He's so large I figure the only breeds who could be are Maine Coon, Norwegian Forest, or Ragdoll. Daos
Yes, Maine Coon
By: mrsnak : May 3rd, 2011-13:21
Mixed with a little tabby. He even has his own page on Facebook. www.facebook.com This message has been edited by mrsnak on 2011-05-03 13:23:18
I look forward...

this one will be the excellent candidate for the cat in "The Master & Magarita"
+1 on cats ...

If a cat chooses to be with you, curl up on your lap, sleep next to you, it's a special gift. A

...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
Nice!

Bread, cheese, wine

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...
Simple, but...
