Merry Christmas



It's Christmas! May everyone have a wonderful Christmas today. 

Hope you love all your presents. But remember, be generous with your heart not just your gifts. It is better to give than to receive. 
Have fun, eat, drink and be merry.

            Hope you all enjoy yourselves on this day the Birthday of Jesus Christ. 
Always, Martha

Mondays with Martha

Well, the Holidays are upon us. I can't believe it's December 12th, already! Christmas is almost here. I started my shopping today. I know. I'm not one of those early shoppers but I've been busy and still have so much to do. I'm sure many of you can relate, even those of you who started early.
Boscov's had really good sales. They  played Christmas music and everyone was in good cheer. I have to get to Toys are Us. I think the closest one to Feasterville is the Franklin Mills Mall. I definitely want to shop at Peddler's Village, hopefully this week. I love all the towns in Buck's County. They're all done up and decorated to the nines! It really is a wonderful place to live. If you live outside of it, come visit. There are great restaurants and shopping in Lahaska, New Hope, Doylestown, Newtown and other delightful places.

Update

Last Wednesday night's Event was a lot of fun! Singles made friends,danced with each other and
took the mike and sang with Kristin Coryell, including me!
The weather was raining and windy but it didn't stop these wonderful
 people from coming out and having a great evening.
                                           

Toward the end we all joined hands and sang a tribute to our country, not forgetting that it was Dec. 7th, the day Pearl Harbor was attacked. We all love the USA!

Mondays with Martha

Last Friday night I stopped at a local Bar/Restaurant near where I live. While I was there having something to eat with my usual Cabernet Spritzer, I noticed that the lounge area was cleared out.  I was told that a Singles Meetup group was coming in and they made some room for dancing.  They started drifting in little by little and ending up with a nice crowd maybe 30 people.
The ratio of women to men was about eight to one. Not good. A bunch of them sat to my right at the bar talking amongst themselves, ordering drinks and of course deciding what they wanted to eat. In the lounge, women danced with each other. The men talked to each other and some just stood around. One friendly guy was taking pictures. I spoke to a couple of guys whilst I stayed seated at the bar. One gentleman, 54 yrs old, divorced who was just standing  around told me the women looked like they were all together and having a fine time without him. He didn't know how to intervene or even if he should!  I reminded him we were talking and he said it was because I started the conversation and he was enjoying it. I explained that the women want the man to approach, especially older women. He was concerned that maybe she wouldn't be interested or maybe he wouldn't be after speaking with her. Now, I had to give a mini lesson on flirting before he made his move.  Similar situation with the other gentleman. He said with all the women there you would think it would be easy but he felt no one was interested in him. Later, I turned to the several women seated to my right at the bar. I asked them why they were stuck together at the bar. One said "Isn't that always the way. The men on one side and the women on the other"  Then another said "We're here! Why don't they come over?" I did agree that should happen. Men should go up to bat and if they strike out. So what? Just get back up. As for the ladies, instead of appearing more interested in food or each other, they could look around, smile at a potential honey and let him know they would welcome his approach.
The reality was Soo high school. Most of these people were definitely over fifty.  They still were apart. All of them, men & women alike, agreed they were there mainly to meet the opposite sex.

Mondays with Martha

A thoughtful excerpt  from a short story written in the 1930s, by Dorothy Parker.
Is it that different today? Are we still agonizing over what we did or said because we're not hearing from the other? And do men worry if they let time pass, and then call, they might get the cold shoulder? Follow with me.

This is the last time I'll look at the clock. I will not look at it again. It's ten minutes past seven. He said he would telephone at five o'clock. "I'll call you at five, darling." I think that's where he said "darling.'' I'm almost sure he said it there.  I know he called me "darling" twice, and the other time was when he said good-by. "Good-by, darling."  He was busy, and he can't say much in the office, but he called me"darling" twice. He couldn't have minded my calling him up. I know you shouldn't keep telephoning them--I know they don't like that. When you do that, they know you are thinking about them and wanting them, and that makes them hate you. But I hadn't talked to him in three days--not in three days. And all I did was ask him how he was; it was just the way anybody might have called him up. He couldn't have minded that. He couldn't have thought I was bothering him. "No, of course you're not," he said.  And he said he'd telephone me . He didn't have to say that. I didn't ask him to, truly I didn't. I'm sure I didn't. I don't think he would say he'd telephone me, and then just never do it. Please don't let him do that, God. Please don't.
"I'll call you at five darling."  "Good-by, darling."

Thought you might like this. Any thoughts? Happy Halloween!
(SBWIRE) -- 10/31/2011 -- Men looking to land a costumed-date on Halloween have a set of tips from the dating and relationship blog, How to Get a Girl to Like You. The site recently released a guide to help men put their best foot forward on a night known for partying and socializing.

The site’s head, Susan Jennings, notes that many men fall flat on Halloween because they pick the wrong costume: “Costume selection is crucial if a man wants to find a match on Halloween night. In fact, many men that would otherwise be a wallflower on Halloween can reinvent themselves with the right costume.” What Halloween costume tips does Jennings offer to men on her blog? “The most important thing is that it’s comfortable and conveys a sense of style and integrity. Many men wear costumes with the intent to shock others. This may turn heads, but it won’t get them the attention they’re likely looking for.” Jennings also warns against masks and excessive makeup –both of which can make it harder for others to see one’s face.

The site advises men to choose a costume that is timely but not offensive. For example, Jennings writes that costumes related to the European credit crunch of other hot-button issues can show that you’re knowledgeable and creative.

What else does How to Get a Girl to Like You advise men to do to have the best chance of meeting a potential girlfriend on Halloween? Jennings notes that being more outgoing and gregarious than usual can work in a man’s favor. She adds, “If a guy is naturally shy, Halloween is the perfect time to break out of his shell and meet some new people. Halloween is a time when people literally pretend to be someone they’re not. Why not turn that mentality in an opportunity to beef up a lackluster dating stretch?”.

The blog also notes that drinking too much is a common issue with men on Halloween. They recommend limiting alcohol intake so that men can stay sharp and focused when talking to scantily-clad Halloween partiers.

Jennings offer some parting words to her blog’s followers on Halloween: “Look good and meet people on Halloween. But most importantly, have fun.

Making Excuses?
I talk to a lot of people. Everyone, men and women alike have stresses on their minds. They  are concerned about all sorts of things.  The economy,
their jobs, their business, not having a job, health issues, children, etc. and of course being bored, tired and lonely.
This is where I come in. I hear often from singles that there's no place to go. Or that  it's the same old, same old. Or that some places they've tried might be alright but not great. Or that nobody is out there anyway. So I hear these complaints.
Well, Martha's Singles is providing opportunities for single people to get together, have fun, great  conversation, getting to know each other and more. My next event, "Autumn Cocktail Party" is This Wednesday night 6 to 9pm. It is being held upstairs at  The New Continental Tavern which will provide the ambiance for people to enjoy themselves. Socialize and have delicious food and great drinks.
Now, if you're looking for more out of life, come join me! Try something new! Martha's Singles is here for you.

 Some of my best date memories were getting together and preparing a great meal.

Of course we always started with a good glass of wine. This kept us cheerful throughout the trials and tribulations of making dinner together.

We divided up our parts as Chefs for the evening. One made the appetizer or salad, the other the main course (meat, poultry, pasta or vegetarian), and one of us, the starch and or vegetable.
Then came the sides, something tasty that complimented the meat or pasta etc.
Always, Always hot crisp on the outside, soft on the inside French or Italian bread with butter.

Later, Dessert, whatever that might be!

The camaraderie, the laughs, the ever entertaining conversation ran through from start to finish.
If you both enjoy this, I'd say things are going well!

Here's a recipe that might be fun.

Recently,  I came across this article. Sometimes we forget ourselves especially in social situations. I think the following makes for a good review. Let me know what you think. If you've got a story to tell, share it here.
Do's:
· Look your best by dressing up well and always be on time for your meetings.
· Compliment your date for his/her looks and be sincere.
· If you are meeting for the first time or after online dating then meet in public and not in secluded pubs and bars.
· Be lighthearted and sober in your approach.
· Switch off your cell phone or turn it to silent mode before your conversation begins. Distractions signal a lack of interest or respect.
· Always warm and positive. Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry all by yourself.
· Make eye contact with your date to show interest and respect.
· Ask questions (this shows that you are interested)
Don'ts:
· Do not drink too much during your date. In fact, keep drinking to a minimum, as most people drink more when they are nervous.
· Do not date a person who is otherwise involved seriously with someone else (couple, marriage, etc.)
· Do not go for sex on a first date. As exciting as it may be to hit a home run in the first inning, having or trying to get frisky on the first date almost always comes off in bad form.
· Do not lie to your date on any aspect of your life. Be your best self but be your true self.
· Do not reveal your inner most secrets or speak too much about yourself on the first meeting itself. Being honest and upfront are necessary but no where to draw the line.
· Do not splash on too much perfume. No matter how attractive the smell is, too much is always a turn off.
· Do not be over critical about anyone or anything. Again, remain positive in your outlook.
· Don't joke on dirty, political or religious issues. These topics should be avoided for meetings where you are getting to know each other. They are highly controversial for most people.

Don't forget the romance! Meeting new people, dating, having getting to know you conversations can be adventurous and fun. Dates can range from a picnic in the park, roller skating, candlelight dinners to a night on the town. Surprise each other, with a thoughtful gift, cooking their favorite meal, funny or romantic notes left in just the right places. A kind gesture, a peck on the cheek or just holding hands may do the trick. Isn't it the little things that make the difference? It doesn't matter whether you're twenty or sixty, showing that you care is never out of style.
The fun starts this Fall.

     Well, here we go again. Another American woman's body has vanished in Aruba. Robyn Gardner met Gary Giordano on Match.com. He offered her a free trip to Aruba. On 7/31/11, away they went. Two days later she went missing. According to her girlfriend and roommate, Christina Jones, Robyn knew that Giordano had a history of domestic violence. However, as many women do, she believed his explanation.
      It appears she was murdered by him. Earlier that day they were seen at a bar drinking. Robyn was woozy. A couple of hours later they went snorkeling? No snorkeling equipment was rented or purchased for her. He said the currents were strong and he told her to swim to shore. He said he didn't look back as he was interested in saving his own life. What a guy! He had taken out a 1.5 million dollar accidental death insurance policy on her. He laid claim to it two days after he reported her missing..
     Natalee Holloway disappeared in 2005. Her body was never found. The consensus is that Joran van der Sloot killed her.She, a senior in high school on a graduating class trip succumbed to his charms. Robyn Gardner, a 35 year old woman succumbed to Giordano's charms. It seems she didn't want to look a gifthorse in the mouth. Maybe, she just wanted to get away.
      Ladies, please don't jump into things. I know there is something intriguing and exciting about the Bad Boy. I've had my own experience with that. But it can be a dangerous affair. It can be emotionally hurtful.
      The nice guy is out there. Who knows, he may just be at the next Martha's Singles event.
The fun starts this Fall.

A rainy weekend and possible showers until Wednesday has me pondering a few things.
Being single in today's world isn't always what it's cracked up to be. These days it is rare that  people are introduced to each other by friends or family. Many are transplants having moved away to other states where they attended college, or relocated for an employment opportunity , etc.
         It's harder to make romantic connections. Yes, it's the social media age. Some sit at their computers looking through on-line dating sites. Some go out to places but aren't meeting available or compatible singles. Some just stay at home and watch TV.
Whether you're single never married, legally separated, divorced or widowed,  my events offer fun venues where you're sure to have a great time.
          So introduce yourself to the social scene and possibly someone new!
The fun starts this Fall.
