Good evening, dear friends
Hehe….. during these 2 days, my mind has not been on cooking and recipes, but more on going down memory lane to the 70’s! Wow, being a teenager then was really fun with all the songs from that disco era. Remember the rotating glass disco ball hanging from the above in the discos? Looking back now, I realise that the cool words then were “disco”, “boogie”, “funky”, “shake your booty” and a few more that I can’t remember.
Here’s another two of my favourites – usually, when my chores get all boring and I need some motivation to get going…. I’ll put on my retro CD’s to get the mood going happy!
I had earlier written something about this – please READ HERE …. and… READ HERE
I now dedicate the songs below to you (the first one has been remixed, though) – hope you enjoy them …..
Good night and sweet dreams from KL!

whoa choesf! you go girl!
I was a big David Essex fan in the 70’s. I wanted to marry him… I named my daughter after one of his songs – “Myfanway”
I was too plump and lazy to do much discoing…

Ah, my dear sweetrosie, now I know where Miffy’s name came come – I thought her name sounds Irish or Scottish.
Hey, I remember David Essex very well, I think us girls used to swoon over his pin-up posters in those days, ey?
It was right after the movie “Saturday Night Fever” and we were all crazy over John Travolta’s moves……when I first met my husband in a party and we danced to this album.
Good night from KL!
With love and hugs,
choesf

Happy Sunday dear choesf
Isn’t it funny how music marks stages in your life? I can think of quite a few songs/albums that take me right back to a time.
I will always associate that James Blunt song, “You’re Beautiful” with our last trip to KL. It was playing in the taxi on the way to the airport and I was crying (as usual) because we had to leave… Miffy and monty just kept trying to ignore me and look out the window…
hehe, I am such a big baby
BTW Myfanwy is a Welsh name that meand “my fine one”

Happy Sunday evening, dear sweetrosie
Yes, I know exactly what you mean – listening to certain songs does bring back us back to different periods of our lives – both happy and unhappy.
Hey, you are one cute baby! Never mind, when you next visit KL, I will bring you around to eat and visit interesting places here, and we’ll have fun together.
I love the name, Myfanwy…..it reminds me of those beautiful elves in “Lord of the Rings” movies!
Good night from KL..
With love and hugs,
choesf

My first essay is due March 17th, and the reading list is enormous!!!
(I am a big baby. And, I can’t wait for you to show me YOUR KL one dayxxxx)
ps; red letter day yesterday – Miffy finished painting her room

Wow, my dear sweetrosie, you are simply amazing – working, studying at the uni and taking care of your family!
Remember to do Salt Baths at least once a week to de-stress and energise yourself.
Has it been two months already since Miffy started painting her room – this calls for a big “Whoooooo-hooooo”!
Have a really relaxed weekend tomorrow.
Many hugs,
choesf
