Christmas and holiday season

according to my experience, the next question tends to concern the price difference. This is why I thought an article would be the ideal opportunity to come back on the topic, especially considering that Christmas is at the door and we should be thinking about which wine to open during the holiday season. The most famous Designations of Origin in Spain and those whose wines sell best are, beyond any doubt, the Rioja and the Ribera del Duero. Their red wines are famous not only in Spain but…

1) Spandau Ballet: “True” The song had a dreamy melancholy quality to the sound. The lyric about the pill and the slow rhythm does make it seem as if the singer is on drugs, or at least relaxed from downing half a bottle of wine. To me, this is a mix of unrequited love and the difficulty of the writer to express it. When the saxophone starts playing in the instrumental break, that's when you really feel it. This song sounds like it’s about a person who fell in love with someone they had a fling…

(Puerto Rico the Profile pg 4) Its currency is the same as the U.S; they just use Spanish words to describe their money. At one period in time when the fare for traveling was cheap, many Puerto Ricans took advantage and moved to the Mainland.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art, or the Met, is the most famous museum in New York City, and the largest museum in North America. The Met also owns a museum in far Upper Manhattan called “The Cloisters”, which predominantly showcases various forms of art from the medieval period.

The Land of 13 Months of Sunshine For many people around the world, mentioning Ethiopia brings to mind the images of famine, drought and poverty. Although those disasters were prevented years ago, they still haunt the country’s international image. It is true that Ethiopia has had its share of natural and manmade problems, but they do not truly define what Ethiopia is today. Ethiopia has always been a nation blessed with many unique natural, cultural, and historical wonders. There are…

Moving boxes up and down three flights of stairs, rearranging the whole kitchen, dusting every inch of the basement, setting up storage, setting up the buffet; today had been an at home workout. My mom and I had been cleaning our house all day long, although I still felt full of energy. Although my mouth was still watering at the thought of a veggie burger loaded with avocado, sautéed onions, american cheese, lettuce, tomato, on a toasted hamburg roll after we finished. My mom on the other…

time to get away to enjoy the things I like to do with those I enjoy spending time with. A perfect example is just this past week, I went to the house of one of my childhood friends to watch the first game of the National Football League (NFL) season.

With the time consuming activities we all have, the time has to be made to get away. The four things that I’d like to…
