#PremIsBack
By: Gabriela Yareliz #PremIsBack, and I am excited. I just wanted to show Salman Khan some love. He seems to be getting better with age. Sonam Kapoor looks ethereal in this film, and Bollywood strikes again. No one does film like India. No one. Bringing in Diwali 2015 with a bang, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
Happy Week: November 8, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz A new week begins, again.The pharmacy looks like a Christmas wonderland.

So, today is the day I hit the publish button. By: Gabriela Yareliz Something I have always disliked is whenContinue reading “Surprised?”
Monday Inspiration: October 19, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s time for another week. It will bring its ups, downs and standstills. Sometimes, time seems to go fast and slow and then disappear altogether. It’s cold here now; winter coats, heater drying contact lenses and ear pain. Ahhh… A taste of winter for the soul. This weekend, I had a lovelyContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 19, 2015”

Monday Inspiration: October 12, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Ready for Monday? I am not sure how I am feeling about Monday. Mondays can be pretty numbing. Anyway, here we are at another week. We are heading straight into knee-deep October. Rumor has it eggnog will soon be arriving, and maybe once Halloween passes we will have our local pharmacy back.Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 12, 2015”
