Powerful feminine energy expressed by Northern Beaches Choir

Hi R

Canberra Convention
Comp Package 2012 Northern Beaches Chorus

'If I give my love to you'.

I thought you would enjoy this song by the NBC - when they participated in the National Comp to come third!

I love the soft yet powerful feminine energy expressed in the words and emotions of this classic song. 
Clara

Breakfast in bed for Mums brings back happy memories

Monte Carlo
Taking its name from the famous European city, Monte Carlo is one of Arnott’s most famous cream biscuits. Created in 1926, it features two home-style honey and coconut biscuits and a layer of rich raspberry flavoured cream filling. A great everyday treat

Hi R
In response to my Mothers' Day thoughts and reflections,  a special friend, Jane, wrote, "When I was a child we just gave Mum breakfast in bed with flowers on her breakfast tray and tried not to burn the toast. I would sometimes make a chocolate cake which was quite a messy process for Mum to deal with but she only offered praise at my childish attempts.
According to Mum my cake was always perfect. That's all that mattered to me. "

Clara
So much of our pleasing is to do with simple nuturing ways - which  children pick up and then attempt to transfer the same loving gestures.  One memory I have, is the Mothers' Day of the burnt Popcorn, when this was considered the ultimate treat for Mum in bed. It took great restraint to stay in bed, with the fumes drifting upstairs to the bedroom. And yet another, was a very creative rendition of Monte Carlos which were a favourite of mine.  I think that every conceivable sweet ingredient in the pantry was combined to produce this unusual offering.  (Kitchen was a treat as well!)  But I loved it. Thanks xx
