I used to do oil-trading business with some Chinese traders from Sinochem who were, at that time, still based only in Bejing. One day, one of them was talking to me about our families. He was impressed at my grandmother's advanced age and asked me to ask her what her secret was.<BR/><BR/>Her answer?<BR/><BR/>No alcohol<BR/>No tobacco<BR/>Lots of hard work<BR/>Lots of laughter<BR/><BR/>Personally, I can deal with #'s 2, 3, and 4...but NOT #1. I'm afraid I love good wine too much!!!<BR/><BR/>Great post!<BR/><BR/>Janet<BR/>(lordcelery.blogspot.com)Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494516976868488211noreply@blogger.com
