There are two very specific dishes that I want to eat tomorrow. Yusheng aka Prosperity Salad and dumplings. Why? Because tomorrow is not just another Saturday. Tomorrow is also Lunar New Year's Day, which marks the beginning of the lunisolar calendar year. Yusheng and dumplings are two iconic dishes that are served on this day - Yusheng in Malaysia and Singapore, and dumplings in China. The dishes are supposed to bring luck and prosperity year round. Now who wouldn't want that?! I haven't had ... continue reading...

As part of my ongoing quest to eat healthier, besides adding more plant-based meals, I've also been trying to incorporate more fish into my diet. When it comes to buying fish, however, it can be hit or miss. Honestly, the selections from my local grocery store are not that great, and the quality can be questionable at times.

I love adding tofu scramble or even cooked lentils along with several kinds of grains and vegetables here for a full meal that satisfies my daily nutritional requirements. Healthy protein? Check. Whole grains? Check. Vegetables? Check ... continue reading...

There was a rather lengthy power outage in my neck of the woods, due to a storm, so now there are things in the house that need to be cleaned up and re-organized, i.e., freezers and refrigerators. Yes, multiples. And outdoors, the greenhouse flipped over! But my husband and son have managed to get that fixed. I, on the other hand, have my work cut out this weekend, so I’m not sure I'll have much time for blogging. So sad… 😩 I'm leaving you with this nice picture of my ongoing obsession ... continue reading...
