Most ladies have a sweet tooth, unlike men – this is why the stereotype of ‘women swoon over a piece of chocolate cake and men could go through their entire lives without it so long as they have a beer and a hunk of meat’.

Say what they will, but it is a widely-known fact that an ample amount of red wine is the surest road to your health and well-being. It is also considered a very effective preventive measure against cardiovascular and coronal diseases. Research has proven that red wine comprises of over 200 types of nutritional elements which are good for our health. Some of these elements are sugar, organic acids, amino acids, vitamins and polyphenols, which has antioxidant properties as well. These are vital for our body for normal body growth, development and metabolism. Remember to take particular notice of this substance found in grapes (and other berries such as mulberries and blueberries) called resveratrol. It is anti-oxidation and anti-aging, something all of us would appreciate!

A father is a person who will stop at nothing to give his children a fulfilling life. He may not perform extraordinary feats to prove his fatherly love but his simple gestures will convince you how much he loves you. He may not be that expressive with his love through words or gifts but actions speak louder than words. The worry lines crease his forehead when he is unable to fulfill your wishes. The teary eyes that normally do not appear or the punishments you received due to your mischief, all speak of love.
