What did you have for breakfast?

So I went visiting and ended up teaching some young men how to cook. The lesson started with a trip to the market and then a surprise meal of potato pottage and stir fry vegetables. It was so good we had to make another one as we started receiving threats from fam members not at home to ensure they met their 'portion'. Some couldn't even wait to warm it again. Now they want another lesson tomorrow. Healthy, filling and fun. Good food and cooking doesn't have to be expensive.

Saying . Someone did something nice for me and I brainstormed how best to show my gratitude. So into the kitchen I went and got m pans out. Into the usual mix went oranges and coconuts and this came out. I couldn't wait for it to cool down. ..lol. straight from the oven to their table. The look of shock on their faces was all the satisfaction I needed. Needless to say that did not last 3 hours.

Go the extra mile to show love, appreciation, thanks and gratitude to people. Infact go out of your way to do something nice for someone just because. Making someone smile should be your target everyday this week.

I challenge you.

I once read an article emphasizing the need to have a lot of colour on your plate. Mind you, the writer wasn't talking about food colouring. ... he was about having variety! Ever wondered just how colourful food can be... and the list goes on and on. Well, I like colourful meals too... And for them to retain their brightness and freshness, I try not to over cook. If you can eat it raw, the better! Mix it up. Moms say never play with your food... I agree but that doesn't mean can't have fun with it... *winks .... Don't shoot me.. my mum taught English. ..
