Nina’s Recipe of the

Our last 2012 Cool hello from a Hot South Africa! Nosy Rosy salutes every person who tries to live up to all the often

ridiculous expectations of this time of year. All the financially

'challenged' or disabled, trying to afford food, a 'holiday', or just a bread or beer. All the dysfunctional families, trying to appear

'normal'. All the people in mendacious relationships, all the single parents who try to fill both 'expected roles'. All the 'step' mommies

doing our Grandest! Give yourself an instant free face-lift: Smile & Salute yourself! Self acceptance and Love

will open you up to a lot more growth than self loathing and flagellations.

Celebrating the bravery of how most people keep

going without the little encouragement they

need, Rosy researched her 2011 gift while planning

to trick herself out of the consumerist madness of

this time of year. A hug is the best thing you can

give anyone. Hugs will release Endorphins and

serotonin with it's healing qualities and which

prolongs life ( Serotonin is the stuff people take in

pill form as anti-depressants) For Christmas she

gave all her significant others a HUGE hug with

these heartfelt words: "My gift to you is my Love"

They all shed tears. At the time, she thought the

tears pertained to the deep appreciation which her

words provoked. Later she realized that the teary

whimpering might have been caused by the
