My First Kiss:) (Mother & Child)

It was something I didn't expect...
Oh, I had no idea what it really was..
A Kiss!!!
I had no definition for it...
I was naive to this physical display of love...
Infact, speaking its words was next to impossible,
when I tried, I spoke something gibberish.
So, even if I wanted to be kissed, how would I ask?
But, I didn't have to...



She wrapped her hands around me, held me close,
looked into my eyes with so much love and kissed me!
I felt something I'd never felt before...
A sensation, a feeling, a …....phew!!

My legs went numb for a second, and I began to feel
tingles...
I grinned from ear to ear and felt quite shy...
I felt a cool warmth on my cheek as air bruised the lip-
gloss she left creasing my chubby cheek after the
kiss...
I smiled as I looked at the beautiful face of the woman
that birthed me; my mother...
My mum gave me my first kiss, when I was barely a
week old...
My mother, my mum...
The little boy in her arms meant a lot to her, and he'll
always be...
Who else could give him his first kiss...
But her..
My mum!If your mum did the same thing to you smile and thank God for your MOTHER.

Recipe: Dark Chocolate Waffles, for Breakfast

Sure, you could make another batch of chocolate chip pancakes for brunch-but round food is so yesterday. You know what’s hip? Eating square. Square waffles, that is. The tidy shape is a cubist’s dream, while the waffles’ tiny indentations create glorious puddles of melted butter and warm syrup-indulgence at its finest (and that’s the whole reason we eat brunch, right?). But maybe you’re thinking, “Yeah, yeah, waffles. Where’s the chocolate?” Oh, we’ll give you chocolate. In fact, this waffle recipe has chocolate in its very bones, or, er, batter-both from cocoa powder as well as shards of a bittersweet bar. Buttermilk brings a slight tang, while olive oil offers fruity richness (make sure to choose an oil that’s mild-flavored, not peppery-it’s still morning, after all). Brooklyn chocolatiers, the Mast Brothers, who created this recipe, call it “The most decadent breakfast ever.” We think it’s the coolest breakfast ever, too.
DARK CHOCOLATE WAFFLES
serves 6
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup (packed) brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 large eggs, separated
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 oz. bittersweet chocolate (at least 70% cacao), finely chopped Nonstick vegetable oil spray
Unsalted butter and warm pure maple syrup (for serving)


Preparation
Preheat oven to 250°. Whisk flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add egg yolks, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Blend with a fork, then gradually incorporate dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat egg whites in a small bowl until soft peaks form. Working in 2 batches, fold egg whites into batter just until combined. Fold in chocolate. Heat a waffle iron until very hot; lightly coat with nonstick spray. Working in batches, cook waffles until cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a baking sheet, cover loosely with foil, and keep warm in oven until ready to serve. Serve waffles with butter and syrup. DO AHEAD: Batter with egg whites can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

Seven unique and passionate ways to boost your relationship


We have all experienced good days and bad days with our significant other but there are unique and passionate ways to strengthen your relationship. It’s easier said than done, but try not to dwell on a previous argument or let any negative energy between you two get in the way in the future. These powerful ways to strengthen your relationship will mend a broken heart as well as protect it in the future!

1. Keep Your Relationship Between The Two Of You: One of the most important ways to strengthen your relationship is to NOT share it with everyone. That’s right, ladies. Gushing about your crush or boyfriend 24/7 to your girlfriends can do more harm than good. If you are looking for other people’s advice or feedback about a situation, you will never be able to resolve the issue with your guy the way that YOU should. Enjoy sharing stories with your friends, but try to keep the private things private.

2. Become Best Friends: Love and affection are the most powerful forces in the world. Become best friends with your man before jumping into a serious relationship and you will see just how strong your connection and bond is before becoming physical. Friendship is truly the foundation of a healthy and long-lasting relationship.

3. Encourage Each Other: A healthy relationship means uplifting and encouraging your guy, just as he should be uplifting and encouraging you. It’s inevitable that you will disagree or argue about certain things, but keeping a positive attitude together will strengthen your relationship every single day. You both should compliment each other’s strengths and weakness to establish a true harmony of being in tune with one another's feelings. Encouragement is a powerful way to spark positive energy in the relationship.


4. Meet in The Middle: Compromising together is important. Just as the two of you should encourage each other, meeting in the middle is a way of taking a pause during an argument and agreeing to take a few minutes to cool off and recollect your thoughts. Try not to judge him for things he’s done but rather focus on how he makes you feel TODAY and what you are looking forward to tomorrow.

5. Always Be Open And Honest: Honesty in a relationship is sacred. This is one of the most passionate and intimate ways to get to know each other. If you embark on a relationship with someone and you either do not act as yourself or lie about yourself then you are ultimately ruining your own chances of happiness in the relationship. Being open means taking time to listen to one another and caring about how the other is feeling. If he’s had a bad day, show him how much you care by taking some time to hear what he has to say. If you are feeling down about something, he should be the first person you think about to reach out to.

6. Respect Each Other: Treat others the way you want to be treated. We’ve heard this saying over and over, right? Well the same principal holds true in a relationship with your guy. If the two of you do not respect each other, there will be many tears and complications in the relationship. Another passionate way to strengthen the relationship is through a mutual level of respect. Respect for each other's feelings, family, friends, values, morals, and future.

7. Set Goals Together: Planning trips and setting goals together can be the cherry on top of the most passionate way to strengthen your relationship. Feeling a sense of connection and oneness with your man is extremely important. Setting goals together will increase your desire to be with each other as well as increase your intention to stay together. I personally have a lot of goals that I would like to reach for myself; therefore partnering up with a guy who not only shares the same goals as me but also wants to help me achieve those goals is a definite keeper!
Couples definitely need to learn how to balance themselves as individuals as well as a unit together. This year, promise yourself to set the intention to find a guy who will become your other half and understand that even if times get hard, there are ways to reconnect and create an even stronger and more passionate bond together! How will you strengthen your relationship?
