Lunch at ICB - Project 365 # 27

 When we did some shopping at  Macy's a couple of weeks ago, we stopped by at Imperial China Buffet to eat lunch.
 Our sweet tooth feast his craving for sweet treats while Ms. Healthy Burrito ate a lot of  seafoods and veggies.
 Ms. Burrito  love egg drop soup while hubby and I love the  sour one.
 Hubby's plate, the first plate above was mine.
 Some of the sweet treats.
 I love eating cray fish but it's a lot of work for a little  bit of meat inside lol.
 We tried taking a picture but the table was so short that it cut  most  part of us lol.

Almonds - Project 365 # 26

No I am nuts (grin) but I love just about any kind of nuts there is. Among my favorites are peanuts, pilinut (Phil. local nuts from our region), cashew, and almond.
I bought a pack when we went to the store the other day, it serve as my snack when I am in front of my PC and doing online stuff.

According to Info Library or catalogs.com, almonds is one of the most nutritious nuts around because it is  rich  with vitamins and mineral that help our body healthy.  Some of the benifits of almonds includes:

  • the consumption of a certain form of vitamin E that is a very important antioxidant
  • Almonds can also help you lose weight. Because they contain fiber, protein, and the good type of fat, they help keep you full, making them an ideal healthy snack
  • Almonds are very beneficial for heart health. They contain low levels of saturated fat and have no cholesterol.
  • Almonds are low on the gylcemic index, which means they do not cause a large increase in blood glucose levels. It has been found that almonds help decrease rises in blood sugar after meals.
January 26, 2011:

  • The students (hubby and Ms. Burrito) are in school.  I have to pick her up after class.
  • I have one task to write today.  Thanks God, I was able to finish   most of it yesterday.  I had to decline two of the tasks given because I was so exhausted.
  • I will try to make some home made pizza later.  It's been a while since we made one.

Here's a parenting tip from parents.com
Experts agree that as long as your child doesn’t have a family history of nut allergies, or show any signs of food allergies, you should go ahead and introduce her to ground nuts and foods containing nuts. Try our recipes for hazelnut pancakes or pistachio pesto. Go Nuts! Must-Have Info & Recipes

Spice Up Your Life with Tabasco Original Red

If you are a regular visitor of my blogs, you probably know by now that both my husband and I love spicy foods.  Let me tell you a little secret  to make your  menus more  tasty... It's by adding a little heat from TABASCO® Original Red, or let me say not just hot but Tasty hot!   

Talk about Game-Day Party Menu, did you guys watch the  games last weekend?  Yay, the Steelers won again so that means that they will  be playing on the super bowl.  We did not  with the whole family but we watch some part of the game online.   To make the game more interesting, I tried  preparing  one of the Pizza Perfected menu I found at Pepper Tabasco Fest. I did not have all the ingredients I need but the taste was awesome because of the tabasco sauce we poured into it.  I'll share to you the photos I took next time.   It's nice  when you can create a menu  that is as good as the one you buy in a commercial establishment. Thanks  to Pepper Tabasco Fest for  sharing their recipes.

Tabasco Original Red is so much more than hot, it's  sumptuous when added to your favorite dish!  It really makes a big difference to your  ordinary menu, it makes it spicy delicious!  Check out their menus folks!
