Bruschetta


Okay so this morning the fruit salad was just not enough and I needed something else to get me going and this is what I made, a bruschetta using cheddar (shredded), tomatoes, avocado, onion, garlic, pinch of sea salt, lemon juice and olive oil, then a sprinkle of some dried herbs that I had in my cupboard. It was just the thing and so yummy. I love the mix, and oh I almost forgot the bread was just some wholemeal bread toasted. Thats it, simple, easy and so good for you too, thats the way I like it!!!!

Mac Plush Glass


This is one of my favorite colors and a real go to lip gloss. Its called the MAC PLUSHGLASS and it is in color "AMPLE PINK". I think it is such a cute color that would suite many complexions. The other thing that I just adore in any lip gloss is that it is not, I repeat not sticky, I hate wearing lip glosses that are super sticky and on a windy day my hair sticks to my mouth, not cute at all!!!!!!! My fringe /bangs are fairly long so they get stuck and it is not pretty to pick it off and have lip gloss on your hair. So I would rate this to be a fairly versatile lip gloss for everyday wear or a natural look too. Ample pink is just such a great shade of pink, I adore it. I don't own a lot of Mac products and this is the first mac lippy thingy I have and am so pleased with. It produces just the right amount of shine, so its really pretty on. It is one of my favorites and I carry it around everywhere but try not use it up as I love it and don't want to waste it way. I alternate with other colors from drugstore brands that I also love to wear and as summer approaches I am really moving into the nudes and the subtle pinks. If you have any favorites, please comment and share them with me.

Guess Flip flops/Thongs


Okay so I went out late one night and was wearing my favourite killer heels which were surprisingly very comfortable but I was wondering around and did a bit of window shopping and after a couple of hours my feet started to swell. I was feeling like I was going to die and at that point I was window shopping the Guess store and notice some thongs/flip flops? I immediately went in to end my painful journey. I tried them and they seemed reasonably comfortable. Then I bought them and went out, changed into them and continued on with the walk. However when I got home I noticed that my right foot had a blister where the top strap is on the outer part of the foot. Even after I pulled the plastic part to stretch it out a bit (I thought it happened because they were new but it was odd that it only happened to one side and not the other). The next day they were still causing me blisters. It has been over a week now and when I were them I were a bandaid on the right foot to save me from the blisters. I don't know what is wrong with that side but I still like the pair, oh well some things are not made in high quality even if it is bought from the higher end stores, or could be just my luck. LOL

Cinnamon Apple Toast

This is what I had for breakfast this morning, it is basically warmed shredded apple, cinnamon, touch of shredded ginger on toasted rye bread topped with flaked almonds. Yummy. What did you enjoy for breakfast? Let me know!!!!!!

My Favourite Lip balm


Okay so I was on the hunt for a really good lip balm months ago and I actually bought a crap load of them throughout the year but I always return to the chapstick strawberry one. I don't know why but it seems to do a better job than even the original one which I also sampled. I use it throughout the day and night and I find it does provide me with the protection I need. So if you find something that works for you and is reasonably priced I suggest you stick with it. I have to have moisture and have to admit I am addicted to lip balm. Sorry if you think this is a bad habit but whatever, you have to do what you love right? hahaha

Date molasses chicken salad


Okay so today I had the urge for chicken and yup it was sure delicious. I cut the chicken breast into pieces or slices whatever you prefer. Then I added some lemon juice and date molasses and then pan fried them with a little coconut oil and some chinese spice, a touch of tumeric and sea salt. Oh and a very small amount of chilli. I then proceed with the similar salad in my last post. I hope you guys like it and please let me know if you need more information or if you have a question please leave me a comment. Now I already had my snack for the day and I forgot to take a picture but maybe tomorrow if I remember. Hope you all are having a good day. Be Wise Be Healthy!!!!

Organic Beef Salad


It was time for me to get up and not be a lazy bum today and actually prepare my meals for the day. I managed to find some organic beef from my local supermarket, it was already sliced up for stir-frying and I made some salad to go with it. Just spinach, red capsicum, tomato, onion, avocado, flaked almond, a little extra virgin olive oil and some lemon juice. Simple and very tasty is what I love. I made enough salad for the entire day. I need to boost my iron levels so I need my red meat and leafy greens. Make sure you guys get a blood test too, I was really surprised but at the same time got some answers as to why I was feeling so tired all the time. There are a few things I need to work on but if I had not gone in I would still be unaware and still making the same mistakes. I hope you guys enjoy your day today and hope it is filled with lots of love and good health.
