Banana dark chocolate chip pancakes anyone? I mean seriously who doesn’t love pancakes. OK well, except the tire you get around the middle from eating wheat! That’s why I’ve been experimenting with different types of flours, like coconut and almond flour. There are higher in protein and fiber and aren’t genetically modified like wheat in the U.S.
As I get older (40’s are the new 30’s, right?) I love the small things more and appreciate what I’d taken advantage of, like cooking, children, flowers, tomatoes, gardening, and creating art in everything I do. I guess you could say I’m more present and less in my head.
It’s summer and I’m still spring cleaning. This time it’s the fridge. I am not one of those people that doesn’t like leftovers. In fact, what is better than something that was already delicious, marinating overnight to be recreated with more flavor than it had yesterday? Let’s not forget the fact that you don’t have to spend your day in the kitchen to have something healthy to eat!
Summer is in full swing and so is everyone’s gardens! I make a weekly trip to the farmers market on Saturdays and everywhere you look are tomatoes and zucchini! With my herb garden producing a bounty of fresh herbs, it just seemed only right to make homemade tomato sauce. I am, unlike most people, not a fan of pasta. I know where it goes after it goes in my mouth, all the places I don’t want it! (thighs, buttocks, arms) Besides, pasta puts me in a coma. I am worthless and need to sleep within 15 minutes!
When you feel sad, you certainly don’t feel good. And prolonged depression being the worst, I believe of all emotions, can cause death. You’ve heard the saying, “They died of a broken heart,” right? When you feel dis-ease in your mind, it can lead to dis-ease in your body.
Don’t like what you see, then quit observing. Quit talking about it, thinking about it, asking others what they think about it, because you will never find a solution by focusing on the problem. If you are unhappy with where you are in your life then stop the madness and change the channel you are watching in your mind.
