I LOVE TRUE BLOOD!

 by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

Fangs... Fangs and more Fangs!

I am not talking about canines or police dogs used in operations like sniffing of illegal drugs and catching life-threatening criminals in the world. Have you ever heard of Bill Compton or Eric Northman? If YES, you might have imagined both of them before bedtime or could be, when you watched episodes of True Blood on your TV screen. Frankly speaking, we are in the same boat as they are irresistibly yummylicious!

I waited for months before I was able to successfully downloaded a few episodes of TRUE BLOOD SEASON 4. We were craving to see the whole cast again and even looking forward to see new faces. We wanted to see the whole casts but I only wanted to see more of Bill Compton and Eric Northman whom I consider sizzling hot vampires. Their masculine fictional characters made me feel sensual and sexy. Also, I was delighted as they love Sookie Stackhouse unconditionally.

Watching 3 episodes of True Blood Season 4 over the past nights, really boosted me and satisfied my hunger too. I only just noticed some staggering changes to the characters and their lives that I had loved before and loving more now. 

Bill Compton, the law-abiding vampire and the x-fiance of Sookie Stackhouse is now the proclaimed King of Louisiana. Soon after when Sookie was missing, there was a gradual leaped in Bill's Life. He has embraced once again his past as a vampire who prefers to bite and drink human blood than synthesized blood. And also, the intimate sexual urges with women who find him very interesting in bed.

Eric Northman likes Sookie and is still Bill's tough contender. The tall, white, serious and thousand years old Viking, Eric Northman, is now becoming vulnerable and fragile. His frailty was caused by a spell performed by a circle of witches led by Marnie when he tried to wipe-put the coven. The unforeseen magical spell was very strong and it left traces of memory loss in which he could hardly recognise who he was and the people he knew before.
 

Sookie Stackhouse was transported by her fairy godmother, Claudine, to the fairy world where she was reunited with her grandfather, Earl. She stayed for only a few minutes with the fairies but in Bon Temps (her hometown) she was officially missing for a year. The fairy world was a trap and the leader tried to force Sookie to eat a vibrant apple which would keep her under the spell. When Sookie had noticed the entrapment, her and Earl escaped the fairies by jumping into a black hole. When they were back in Bon Temps, her grandfather faded away and she was met with unexpected surprises. Such as, Jason Stackhouse (her brother) and closest friends thought she was dead and killed by a vampire. The Bon Temp Police team led by Andy Bellefleur suspected Bill Compton as the prime killer. The house that she inherited and where she and Jason grew-up was sold by her brother to a classified person. But soon after her come back, Eric Northman disclosed to Sookie that he owns the newly bought and renovated house.

The feisty and troublesome waitress of Merlotte' Bar and Grill, Tara Thornton, has finally found her identity as a late bloomer lesbian. Though she had a few intimate relationships with men in Bon Temps before, she is now contently living with a woman in New Orleans. She works as a cage fighter who is is undoubtedly becoming stronger after a few horrible experiences with the vampires. She is currently in Bon Temps to see her childhood friend, Sookie and cousin, Lafayette.

True Blood withdrawal syndrome is no longer affecting my life!

THE WHITARD OF CHELSEA'S 4 CUP CAFETIERE

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

I went into a pub and orderd a large cup of luscious creamy cappuccino, and absorbed the civilised ambiance as well as the magnificent Victorian decorations. In particular, I was impressed by pictures of shire horses- pulling carts full of beer barrels. Apart from that, I watched the locals through the big glass windows coming and going along the high street.

It wasn’t in my plan to visit this working class pub, but I still had extra time before heading back home. I decided to rest my weary feet for a few minutes as I'd been walking up and down the busy high street on a mild sunny day. As far as I was concerned, I only stayed for 20 minutes and after that, I walked uphill towards the bus stop.

Whenever I go out, I love to visit a particular shop just in front of the main entrance of the bus stop. I visited it again and was drawn to a filter coffee maker with its original box. It was in very good condition and at a reasonable price too. I was so lucky but I wasn't that convince about buying it. Then I realised, I badly needed a coffee filter that can be used also to prepare loose tea. So I bought the cafetiere and handed over to the lady the exact amount. She turned out to be Lady de Burgh and told me about the huge fireplace she had just installed at Rosings. But I diverge... LOL!

I was there in the shop to find something for myself and I was a bit disappointed because it wasn’t that fruitful for me. But that day, I didn’t go empty handed as an elegant looking cafetiere manufactured especially for Whittard by Bodum was with me.

The cafetiere is designed with two metal holders which are glued to its cylindrical glass jug as well as connected to the black finish plastic holder. In the box also, was included a rounded dessert spoon and a cork cardboard mat which was shaped and curved perfectly to fit the base of the jug. Moreover, it can provide up to 4 cups of hot beverages which makes it ideal not only for a couple but for a big family too.
