Jeanette Winterson's The Daylight Gate - The story is set on the era where science, sorcery and witch craft gets complicatedly tangled. So if you are into witchery, mystery and ghoulish plot, then reading this book would surely give you a back in time adventure. *please see back cover for the synopsis.



So here's my favorite pick for this this week. Happy weekend wonderful people and stay safe and healthy!  and remember "You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them." - Maya Angelou, Letter to my Daughter

Hey guys! hope you are all having a fantastic weekend. I have been really busy the past few days hence the absence. So, today I thought I'd pop over and share with you one of my favorite "creations" my healthy go-to meal whenever I want something done in a hurry. So here is my simple Shitaki Mushroom Adobo.

Ingredients:

Fresh Shitaki Mushroom
Onions
Garlic
Sesame Seeds
Parsley (dried)
Spices (black pepper, Japanese all spice, Cayenne pepper, Coriander or any spices of your choice)
Olive Oil
Organic Soy sauce (organic being optional)

The Simple Way - Put the fire in medium heat. Saute the garlic and onions in olive oil. Wait till it smells wonderful and a little roasted. Then add the Shitaki Mushroom. Stir quickly. Add soy sauce and spices when the mushroom becomes a little soft and spongy. Then sprinkle with parsley and some sesame seeds. And there's your simple vegan meal. Good luck and let me know what you think about it. Have a beautiful day everyone!

Gooood Morning Wonderful people! Yep I am excited like that! who wouldn't be? weekend around the corner y'all and that only means, family time and finally, finally after eating mostly solo for a few days, Ryan will get to taste my home cook meals and he's got the whole seat for himself the whole weekend. So, I am very excited to try some new vegetarian/vegan recipes, and I can't wait to show off my new skills in the kitchen. Which by the way, only consist of having to saute, grill or roast some mushroom and veggies. But when you go vegetarian/vegan you have got to do a lot of convincing that it might look weird sometimes? but it sure is healthy and tasty. So, here are some recipes that I have tried, tasted, and proven to be good to the health and tasty as well.

My Very Own Garden Fresh Mushroom Salad. This is very easy to do. Into the pan, caramelize in olive oil a good portion of garlic. Then add the mushroom. Season with your favorite herbs and spices ( mine consist of dried coriander power, Japanese all spice, black pepper, and a little bit of cayenne pepper)

Then on a separate bowl. Mix a generous amount of green such as lettuce, spinach, bokchoy, etc. whatever you wish ;) then add the sauteed mushroom. Top with almond Parmesan to substitute the need for dairy cheese.


Then you can roast some potatoes. Simply slice some potatoes into squares. Drizzle it with olive oil, add some sea salt and some thyme. Put in a non stick pan on a low heat fire. Constantly turn your potatoes over to keep it from burning. And there you go. One healthy meal done. Have a wonderful weekend everyone and stay on the brighter side ;)
