You know, once in while, it’s OK to eat a meal full in calories, saturated fat, salt and sugar in three bites. At the end of the day, you’re running three times per week (*cough*). And most importantly the calories your brains burn while working very hard does the job. This morning, I tried the veggie breakfast roll…
It’s this time of the year again….Horribly cheesy pink hearts are everywhere, in the chocolate section of the supermarket (normally your favourite spot), on bus adverts, on the TV toothpaste ad (!!). You can’t really avoid it…You really want to avoid it… But but Valentine Day is on a Saturday this year! Damn it! Now…
I stumbled across the band Hinds (formerly Deers) a couple of months ago. It took me by surprise, like a brisk fresh wave in the sea. The band started with Madrid-based Ana and Carlotta before adding to their line-up drummer Ámber and bassist Ade. Their music is fresh, raw, funny. It is everything that is missing to rock’n’roll today. Hinds goes…
It all started in September 2010. Anthony Khoury and his friends got together to form a band. They practiced in a storage facility turned to a music room in the small Mount-Lebanon town of Brummana. They gave their first concert in December 2010 in a restaurant in Beirut. Since then, they’ve never looked back. They played in music…
Anyone can take selfies. President Obama at a funeral, Ellen De Generes, Meryl Streep and their friends, your 15 years old neighbour…and cats. Yes. Cats can take selfies. The Cat Snaps app is simple, yet brilliant. Random icons fall on the screen: laser dots, mice, bugs moving randomly to catch the attention of the cat.…
I was already imagining how my blog post would look like. A healthy, easy recipe to share with everyone. Bulgur wheat with tomato sauce that always, always takes less than 10 minutes to cook. 6 minutes 38 seconds more precisely. I was picturing this mouth dropping salivating photo that would make anyone run to the…
When you go to big bands concerts, you often forget where all these artists start. You assume any artist would have a crew that goes on stage before the concert to prepare the equipment while the band is enjoying champagne in the backstage. Not true. Ought is a relatively new band that formed in Montreal.…
First grand slam of the year. How did each of Djokovic, Federer, Nadal and Murray prepare for the Aussie Open? ANDY MURRAY Very interesting times for Andy Murray. Is he crossing the bridge that will bring him back to success i.e grand slams glory? Murray fought very hard at the end of the 2014 season…
So, my sister texted me the postcode of the mexican restaurant La Bodega Negra where I should meet her and her friends. Once in Piccadilly Circus, I walked past the hundreds of tourists wondering around in shorts, and turned right. I stopped where my postcode told me to stop. Adult Video. Peep show, written on…
This show was being recorded. Nothing against any performer and performance, but playing a recorded gig at the Royal Albert Hall means you need to be spot on. You fucking need to give it all. And Daman Albarn & the Heavy Seas didn’t miss a note. They managed to ignite a crowd that was mostly 30…
