Breakfast

Hi friends,


My breakfast this morning.

RapidLash!

Hi friends,

Ta-dah!

I got it at last.
It is sold at Boots at £41 but you know what I am doing for living. After my research, I found it at £19.20 including P&P on Amazon. It was delivered in the following day. 
Only down side is, I have to be patient for 8 weeks to see a visible result.

It is hardly “rapid” but  wait and see…

Anti-aging Brunch

Hi friends,

The weather has become like the one we had in September, hasn’t it? Hope it will be mild winter this year. I just received the electricity bill…. Yes, we indeed need mild winter.

Ladies, our favourite subject today. Anti-aging and foods.
This is my super anti-aging brunch.
As usual, rice was cooked with Soya powder and after cooked, I added Sesame powder and mixed it up. I talked about the benefits of sesame and soy products quite few times in the past, so I will skip their benefits this time.

Avocado. I made roll sushi with ripen avocado. Avocado is, as we know, rich in Vitamin E.

Tomato. These small red ones are Berry Tomatoes. They are smaller than plum tomatoes and much sweeter than ordinary ones. Tomatoes are rich in Lycopene. Lycopene is said to be beneficial to prevent heart disease and cancer of prostate, breasts, lung, bladder, colon, pancreas and ovaries. It is also known as powerful antioxidant. However, ladies and gentlemen, it should be taken from foods in a natural way. If you use artificially processed lycopene, it might worsen prostate cancer.

Vinegar. I often use rice vinegar to marinate vegetables. Vinegar is said to ease our fatigue, and slow aging process. It also has great benefits, such as anti-cancerous and blood glucose control.
Pork. I do not eat meat as often as I used to, but I still enjoy pork and chicken. These are shallow-fried pork and prawn burgers with breadcrumbs. Comparing with other meat, pork is richer in Vitamin B which is very important for your skin and nerves.

Miso Soup. What more can I say about miso? The greatest product from Japan. If you are serious about anti-aging and anti-cancerous, this is the product we cannot miss, as well as tofu. I normally add tofu and wakame (kelp) in miso soup. It makes your diet healthier as you can add any kind of vegetable in miso soup.    


Lastly and most importantly, this is my mantra. Drink green tea in the morning and drink lots of water during a day. I only drink 1 Littre of water, as I take enough fluid from foods such as fruits and that is enough for me to maintain PH balance in the body.

Straight Hair

Hi friends………..especially those who have not seen me for a couple of weeks.

I had my hair straightened like this. How’s that?

My good old engineering colleagues are now calling me Ozzy. Charming, aren’t they?

Unfortunately, AML did not like it, either. All ladies were so far really complimentary though.

Well, my dear ladies and gentlemen, at the tender age of 45, I can no longer be bothered to think how I may appear in front of men.  I would rather choose to save time in the morning.

This is not Brazilian Keratin treatment but Japanese straight perm called Yuko System and unlike other treatments, it makes minimum damage to your hair.

My dear friends, hope you like my new hair.


Thanks for reading. See you soon. God bless you all.    

Breakfast and Lunch

Hi friends

We got sunshine at last! It is a beautiful day, isn’t it? To make most of it, I will go out for country walking. Also, it is good time for me to get my favourite cheese, Mont d’Or, so I will pop in the shop in Stratford as well.  Mont d'Or is Vacheirn (cheese from Cow’s milk) and available from France and Switzerland. The difference is, whether it is pasteurised (Swiss) or not (French). I prefer the latter one. It is only available in markets form 10th September to 10th May but here in England , it tends to  disappear from shops before Easter.

Anyway, it is enough of my cheesey talk.
Hope you are well and enjoying yourselves there. God bless and take care.


My usual breakfasts and lunch.

Environ

Hi friends,
Did you see the big full moon on 8th? Although it was cloudy here, I could catch it in the morning on 9th. Also I could see it in the evening on the same day.

The moon is said to have some influence over our moods and at full moon phase, it often causes impulsive behaviours. After all, the word “lunatic” is coming from that.

Then, I can understand why I got this box...




Ta-dah!


Yes, it was truly impulsive purchase but I have no regrets. :-p

Breakfasts and Pudding

Hi friends,

My usual topic, breakfasts.

Pudding.  This carrot cup cake is a compliment from HR Coffee Bar. It was squashed in my hand bag on the way to home yesterday….

Simply beautiful.
