Joint health
2 Jul 2010I am sad to realize that my parents are not getting younger anymore. I do not know where the years went. Once in a while my dad is having joint problems. He can hardly walk when it comes. I think he needs joint health supplements. I also advised him not eat food that has fat, organ meat and just have salt to taste diet and drink lots of water.
Pancakes
In: food and cooking| personal
29 Jan 2010My co-workers love pancakes. We used to cook it when we are off duty or before we work morning shift. It is yummy and it is easy to prepare.
1 egg
1 cup all- purpose flour
¾ cup milk
1 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp shortening, melted, or vegetable oil.
3 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
Beat egg with hand beater until floppy, beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth. For thinner pancakes, stir in additional ¼ cup milk. Grease heated griddle if necessary. (To test griddle, sprinkle with few drops water. If bubbles skitter around, heat is just right.
For each pancake, pour about 3 Tbsp butter from tip of large spoon or from pitcher onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes until puffed and dry around edges. Turn and…
Giving thanks
In: Uncategorized
28 Jan 2010Like most families, my family value to always pray during meal time. We always give thanks for the grace God provides for us. And that it will give our body the nourishment we needed. It always feels good to express the gratitude for the food. It makes us all eat more mindfully and enjoy the food more. I am sad knowing that some families pray and give thanks after they are full and satisfied. Isn’t it unfair or something? What do you think?

Practice thanksgiving
In: Uncategorized| personal
8 Dec 2009The vegetales song “Thankfulness” keeps on popping in my mind today. I am reminded to give thanks to God and people is the easy way to start a joyful day.We should say a prayer of thanks for everyone and everything you come across today. No exceptions! Turn on the light and bless those who discovered electricity. Bless the farmers who grew the food you’re packing in the kid’s lunch. When you get in the car, bless the automotive engineers who invented seat belts. Bless the person in the office elevators who’s talking top volume on her cell phone. . for reminding you what not to do. If we make this a habit, I am sure that we will have delightful…

Spice your food right
31 Aug 2009Get healthier by these cooking herbs help fight the freed radicals that age you. You can improve the taste and up the nutritional content of your meals by adding herbs and spices.

Better beauty sleep
In: fashion and beauty| living| seasons| sports and recreation
12 Jan 2009Sleeping in the right time is one of the ways to feel full charged and feel beautiful inside out. An adult needs to have about 6-8 hours of sleep. As much as possible we need to be able to sleep well to face the next day with confidence.
Try, if possible to eat your evening meal at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This means you have enough time to digest your food which in turn will avoid that bloated feeling and this will allow for better beauty sleep!
