2 Grass Lovers:
That is SO interesting to me that you're dyslexic in Arabic, but not in English! I wonder why that is- maybe Arabic uses the other side of your brain. Or maybe it's because it's backwards from English...hm.
Oh. And if you like cheese and honey, I HIGHLY recommend goat chese and honey, especially when you put a bit of cheese on a little baguette and then broil it until it's light brown and then drizzle honey over the top. It's delish.
catching up here...i loved reading this!!
