Hi Pln and all I think nobody really understande differences between men and women. LOL That's why it's to fascinating!
Being a ambitious person is a good behavior you can have and all of the people I know who are successful in personal or professional life, are ambitious. Ambition is the fuel we need to succeed. That's my 2 cents :) Well, I have to schedule a date to start the Japanese cousine course. Actually, it's a one-day course and everything we prepare there, we are able to take home!! Here in Sao Paulo, we have a plenty of Japanese and chinese restaurants, so we can find places to eat a very quality food and I believe they are very close to the original in Japan. Do you enjoy oriental cousine? What's a traditional dish from your country, Pln. Do you recommend? How about Poland, what are the traditional dishes there? I'm not a sweet tooth at all, I have to say that like sweet but If I can choose, I'd choose bitter chocolate, they are better for heath (they say that) and I prefer. Women are usually chocoholic, don't you agree?
