Once it's rainy and dark i will be able to browse or watch tv and typically proceed the web with hot snacks and a cup of coffee.

I like reading books a lot both fiction and non-fiction. In my free time I always dedicate some time to reading. Sometimes on rainy days I love to sit alone in my balcony looking at sky. I just love the color and texture of clouds and environment. I am a great fan of first rains smell too.

My Favorite Things

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites

When the bee stings

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don't feel so bad

My Favorite Things

The song was first introduced by Mary Martin and Patricia Neway in the original Broadway production and sung by Julie Andrews in the 1965 film.

In the musical, the lyrics to the song are a reference to things Maria loves, such as 'raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens'. These are the things she selects to fill her mind with when times are bad.

The original Broadway musical places this song in the Mother Abbess's office, just before she sends Maria to serve Captain von Trapp's family as governess to his seven children. However, Ernest Lehman, the screenwriter for the film adaptation, repositioned this song so that Maria would sing it with the children during the thunderstorm scene in her bedroom, replacing "The Lonely Goatherd," which had originally been sung at this point. Many stage productions also make this change, shifting "The Lonely Goatherd" to another scene.
The first section of the melody has the distinctive property of using only the notes 1, 2, and 5 (Do, Re, and Sol) of the scale. Rodgers then harmonized this same section of the melody differently in different stanzas, using a series of minor triads one time and major triads the next.

The song ends with a borrowed line of lyric and notes from Rodgers' earlier composition with Lorenz Hart, "Glad to Be Unhappy," a standard about finding peace in the midst of unrequited love. Using the same two notes for the phrasing of "so sad" in the original song, Rodgers brings the gloom of my "Favorite Things" to a similar upbeat ending – "and then I don't feel so bad."

What do you get if....

you lick a chocolate Easter egg.... Fat that's what. Why am I telling you this ? ... because despite being a really good girl (apart from that little lick) and eating healthy nonfattening stuff, suffering a naughty tummy bug for a few days which meant I didn't know which way was up and exercising too(which in my book is usually a sweary word) HAVE I lost a measly 1lb??.. you can bet my sorry little (rephrase that !! BIG) rear end I definitely did not. To say I am gutted is the understatement of the century. All of those Easter eggs that DG would have gladly shared with me were untouched by my fair hands... Now what I want to know is WHERE'S the JUSTICE in THAT!! Sorry for the mini moan but if you visit my blog regularly you will know that my mouth rules my fingers and well.... it just has to come out...lol

Next is a GORGEOUS atc that my lovely crafting buddy Chriss made for me... it's a little joke because she watched me at Butterfly world follow one butterfly round and round with my camera for an age... but he just wouldn't stay still long enough for me to take a photo... maybe I smelled funny...I don't know but he was havin' none of it. I will get him next time though supposing I have to stay there all day. Unless he has gone to butterfly Heaven by then... don't know how long Butterflies live actually!!
