"The secret of the Great Stories is that they have no secrets. The Great Stories are the ones you have heard and want to hear again. The ones you can enter anywhere and inhabit comfortably. They don’t deceive you with thrills and trick endings. They don’t surprise you with the unforeseen. They are as familiar as the house you live in. Or the smell of your lover’s skin. You know how they end, yet you listen as though you don’t. In the way that although you know that one day you will die, you live as though you won’t. In the Great Stories you know who lives, who dies, who finds love, who doesn’t. And yet you want to know again. That is their mystery and magic."

“The God of Small Things” by Arundhati Roy (via srsly)

Before they had models, Brazil had brigadeiro!
recipe
Forget that bucket of ice cream in front of the tv crying at some cliche romantic comedy. Have some brigadeiro instead. Much cheaper and it has the exact same effect. Trust me.

She’s right. Completely right.
