Fall Glimpses of Beauty and Strength

Image
"Fall winds, leaves of gold tumble leaving bare the tree; Unearthing her strength." Mary Caliendo Do you love the change of seasons as I do? Are you baring your strength? Who knows what paths we may take, who knows how long and winding they may be...just push on even if it is an extremely small thing. You have no idea how strong you may be until you're made to prove it. It may be tiring and challenging, but at the end of the day you will acheived the strength that you needed. Continue to focus on your authenticity and it will lead to this path. You, like the tree, have strength that underlies beneath your leaves.

Keto Nuggets

Image
I'm always on the outlook for easy,tasty and fulfilling foods to eat. I also love recipes that I can make that everyone would enjoy even if they are not on a specified lifestyle diet. It cannot get easier than this lovely keto nugget recipe. This recipe and others that are similar to this have gone viral on social media. So I've adapted this one. You'll need a mixing bowl, and I have used a simple mini muffin tin to shape them. But you can use a regular muffin tin or shape them with your hands, it's up to you. Keto Nuggets Pre heat your oven to 400 degrees~ There's only a few Ingredients that you'll need: ***************************************** *1) 1 Can of Chicken breast (drain all of the water out) *2) 1 egg (I used a large egg) *3) 1 Cup of mozzarella cheese (I used a pre shredded kind) *4) 1/2 tsp of garlic powder *5) Salt & Pepper to your taste **************************************** Directions In a bowl, combine all of the ingredient...

Stuffed Mini Cucumbers Recipe

Image
I am always looking for new recipes and tasty appetizers for the next party/party hosting I will do. I look for quick,easy,crowd pleasing and I detest turning on the oven if I don't have to. *Summer Tip* I feel the key to feeling great especially in the summer,is to stay hydrated all while eating your way into healthy vitamins and minerals. Make sure you eat your summer vegetable harvest that contain foods like cucumbers because they are usually in abundance and the water content is high in cucumbers!* I reccently came across a recipe in the Costco magazine that is a version of a recipe that my own mother used to make for summer parties and for a simple dish that replaced a salad, they called them "Stuffed CuteCumber Boats". I'll link this recipe later at the end, but here is the version that my mom used and that I now use that we just called Stuffed Cucumbers. *Recipe Tip* I depise waste, especially food waste,and if I can I will use something I have on-hand ...

Sunday Slow Down

Image
This is me taking a deep breath and releasing all of the week's stress, and enjoying a Sunday slow down. This is how I like to end the week. A simple warm green tea and a toss of fresh lemon. I try to seclude myself and just be still and quiet. It does my soul good. This is a sweet potato vine. I use them to fill in my pots for added demension and "greenery" among the flowers that I plant. Did you know that this plant flowers? In all the years I've had them I never recalled them blooming and this purple leaf looks great as they stay in my midwest climate all the way through Fall. Anyway this is the epitome of actually stopping to smell the flowers, and I did just that. I've been working on some new recipes, and exercises to add to my walking journey So I'll be posting those updates this week.What do you do to unwind and have you tried new exercises of late? I hope you're all still staying active. It's very hard to be motivated when vacation comes cal...

Thursday Thoughts and Tiny Helpers

Image
The current state of affairs in the world, especially in the United States, calls attention to truly random thoughts I will share here today; I hope though, that this post will find a bit of yourself here and even afford a smile or two. The chaos of the world makes me attend to my self-care routines a bit more.In order to unwind I have done some face masks,and foot masks and even a manicure while adding in more exercise and healthy sleep and eating. How about you? My favorite exercises of Tai Chi are great for restoring and revitalizing myself. The exerises are thought provoking and meditative. I was able to host a family event afternoon with my children and grandchildren. Remember when someone said "find your Joy"? That's exactly what I find when I seek joy.Family. We came together had food, gifts,desserts and laughs. There were yard games, and bubbles and backyard patio conversation over wine. Lastly, and never the least, still the highlight of my day were the tiny he...
