Last night I put on my Belly Dancing Party DVD. It’s not really a workout video but more of a how to of belly dancing. Within 5 minutes I could feel my stomach start to burn! In the middle of the first combination, John rang my doorbell. He came to visit with two items in his hand not counting his omnipresent laptop. He had a brown paper sack filled with egg rolls and an Eddie Izzard DVD. We went to the kitchen and I ate two egg rolls and he ate 4! Earlier I had noticed a box of Mango juice sitting in my refrigerator so I decided to make Mango Lassis. Talk about a fantastic meal! Egg rolls and Mango Lassi. It doesn’t get any better than that, my friends. Not at all. And it is so easy to make Mango Lassis. Just get a box of Mango juice and some vanilla yogurt and ice. Blend it all together. Voila! Mango Lassi. We retired to my bedroom where we watched a little of the Belly Dancing DVD and later the Eddie Izzard DVD. I would have preferred Ali G/Borat but I watched Eddie. Stand-up comics have never really been my thing. Still I recall snickering in a few places. What really helped is I thought Eddie Izzard looked like a combination of Mimi from the Drew Carey Show and fat Anna Nicole Smith. If anything, I must know where he gets his lipstick! I estimate his routine lasted at least 5 or 6 hours and his lipstick stayed put until the very end. No bleeding, no fading! I bet it’s Max Factor’s Lipfinity.

I can’t tell you how relieved I am over the Belly Dancing DVD. I got it at TJMaxx just the other day and there were so many to choose from! I grabbed the one that promised I could use the moves on the dance floor or have a belly dancing party at home. I might go back to TJMaxx and see what other DVDs they had since this one is such a winner.
