Laleh... Live Tomorrow
Its cold around me, the nigh t is young
the sun has fallen and I’ve become
the lonely one
the moon is dancing among the clouds
and my knees are shaking,
and my dreams are braking
but I know I live
But i know i live, today
I know we could live tomorrow
But I know I live today,
I know we could live tomorrow
But I don’t think we should wait! No..
I know we could..
Taking my life in my hands!
(the power who has it?)
Taking my life in my hands!
(the power who has it?)
I don’t like to wait!
no, i don’t like to wait!
It’s happening, It’s happening..
I know we could live tomorrow
But I live today!
I know we could live tomorrow
But I don’t think we should wait!
La-la-la, love

To Eat Or Not To Eat..

I didn't know there are so many different muscles in the body. Everytime I go to the gym, I feel the pain in the different part of my body. I am getting there, to finally do all those workouts without feeling the pain. My goal was to loose weight, but now I have decided to do it just to be in shape and feel good about myself. Thats why I made this Persian dish today, Ghormehsabzi and had a good lunch. I felt guilty at first then I thought of all the hard work out I did in the gym yesterday. So I think every one of us should eat something we like atleast once or twice a week. Back to my posting two weeks ago, I am happy with the result I am getting. So if tomorrow, I have Frapachino again, I wont tell anyone, just would have a smile in my face and enjoy it.....

What can I say I love food and delicious deserts...

Beautiful day in Central Park

Today was Seezdah Bedar, the 13th day of Persian New Year. Most of families go to the picnic for a barbecue and getting together. For me it was my kids and Dad, so we decided to go to Central Park. I had a choice of taking a subway or driving. I opted for driving. After being stuck in Traffic for 45 minutes we got to Manhattan. What a beautiful day. It was a sunny and warm day, people from all nationalities were walking around... And now the big problem pops out. Finding a place to park the car. I was driving around for 20 min and no luck so I finally decided to go to one of those parking places they have with the rates from $15 to $24.99. Ofcourse it was only in my dream, as soon as I went there the person in charge gave me a ticket, I asked how much are you charging for 3 hours, he is like since your car is SUV we charge you $10 more so it would be $57. I was shocked and asked him then what is 24.99 and he said that's for before 7AM. So I was back to driving around and finally found a place to park. I decided instead of paying for the parking, I will ride a Horse Carriage... It was so fun. Something that I haven't done in 14 years I have been in NY. The funny thing about the City is that as soon as people see a sunny day they rush to Central Park in their Bathing suits and get a tan. I ended up buying fake sunglasses for my daughters. And after a trip to MacDonald,watching my kids eat the french fries:), we drove back home. We made the best out of our day. But nothing compare to the seezdeh bedar in Iran. My favorite food for every sizdah bedar was Gheimeh Polo, there was just something about it, I had to have it in every seezdahbedar. We used to play Vallyball and Dablelna... So many good memories... God I miss those days...
