Food is coming!


In two weeks time I’ll be at home, taking a rest before Easter and before  preparing all of the food the next day. I’m not joking, it’s true – I’m planning to rest before... resting! My family is one of those who think that on every holiday or celebration there should be tons of food on the table. Of course, all of it is unhealthy stuff with cream, kilograms of sugar etc. I like it, but after eating things like this I always feel very heavy. Every year there is the same story: we bake cakes, make salads and other fancy stuff and in the end, everyone eats first course and they are  full. Come on, how much can one person eat?!Then we spend time looking at all the delicious things on the table, wishing our digestion speeds up, and finally someone says: “Oh no, look at this! No one is eating anything. Why aren’t you eating?! If no one eats, next year we won’t prepare so much food!”. I wish for once it was true!

Why don’t you have a rest?

source: forsal.pl Nowadays people are living so fast. Every morning you can see them almost running to get to work, pupils with big school bags walking fast because they’ve overslept, old ladies going to the market in order to be the first in buying the best groceries and cars passing by with an incredible speed.  What makes all of them losing their heads? Well, the answer is pretty simple: money and obligations. All the society is used to this type of life and I’m afraid sometimes we don’t have any other option. I’m one of these “running people”. I always walk hurriedly and have a lot of things to do in my tense schedule. It’s very annoying when someone is walking slowly in front of me and I can’t get ahead. In such situations I have an impression that this person is stealing my valuable time. Of course it’s not true, but when you have a hundred things to do, every minute is priceless. However, every day I try to find a moment only for myself and I think all of us should t...

Let it snow!

Source: https://www.biznews.com/briefs/2014/02/25/harsh-weather-tests-optimism-u-s-economy There are two kinds of people – these who like snow and these who hate it. I’m somewhere in the middle of this battle. To me, snow is a nice thing in December, with all those lights, Christmas Trees and other adornments. It looks really magic when combined together. I love these lazy evenings with my decorative candles lighting in the room, a good film and snow outside. Nothing better than moments like this, with a warm blanket, of course! However, if the snow falls in April when it’s absolutely not supposed to, I rather hate it. Moreover, I’m cold almost every day so winter is especially tricky to me as I try to stay warm at home or during classes and snow doesn’t help at all. I hope it will fall at Christmas Eve, though, which isn't now as obvious in Poland as it used to be :)

Too much food

Three days of eating and that’s it! Christmas has ended. Like every year, my family spent those days going to church, eating a lot, drinking good wine and visiting relatives. I had time to see people which live in different places and we normally don’t have many opportunities to meet. We could talk, laugh and praise each other’s cakes. I love family gatherings, but ours consist mainly of sitting and eating. I would prefer to add some activities which would help us to feel less heavy after all this food, like going on a walk after dinner. However, some of my relatives are elderly people and they usually don’t feel like going anywhere. Convincing others to move is especially difficult during winter. Although the temperature is low and the weather is unpleasant, we should go out for a while and it will certainly help us to feel better after an abundant meal.
