Ok, so I'm a sad little Pusswedilla noob. But BY GOD that play was awesome!Such good acting and great lines and flow.

You know what? So I totally went to Arugam Bay and it was fantastic. Fantastic in a rugged, you're-way-too-pansy-to-swim-in-my-waves kinda fantastic, because the surf season has just started and the waves are NOT...I repeat, NOT for swimming.

I changed my mind about food after reading just a few words, "you can not differentiate and justify that the animals on your plate and the ones in your homes are different..." for me, that changed the way I ate.

I wonder if I could make some money making and selling these on Etsy or something......aaand featuring...Beet's favourite shop in the whole wide world.

Our friend who was fixing our new bicycles called and confirmed that we could pick ours one night, about a week ago. Beet suggested we go to his workshop by tuk-tuk and then ride back home - literally from Kotte to Pelawatta. I instantly thought of all the ways we could die/ be maimed, after all, it's Sri Lanka...For example ...

I bought ...
