What's on your plate?

[lylysa]

Hello there, ladies and gents!

Keeping in line with all the fun and interactive threads asking about your most recent halls, items you have your eyes on, what you're currently wearing, what's your hair routine, and more, I've decide to branch out and ask:

"What's on your plate?"

The beauty world doesn't just stop at skin care and cosmetics, it also goes hand in hand with your overall health and well-being, so with that, I'm curious to see what we're all chowing down and snacking on be it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, or inbetween!

For those with apps that help count calories or to those who just want to keep a log, here's a place to share, possibly find and share some recipes, and even tips on maintaining a balanced diet.

Don't just share food items, but even drinks! I'm a huge fan of tea and at least have a cup of green tea a day (anti-oxidants) and drink plenty of water.

For lunch today, I had:

-Brown rice

-Steamed egg

-Steamed red snapper with green onion, sesame oil, and black pepper

-Gai lan (it's a type of Chinese vegetable/greens)

Now, tell me, Beauty Talk world, what do you have? 😄

Mini Banana muffins: my husband and kiddo complained about it’s not enough sweet but they like the texture

Oh my goodness yes please, bananas and chocolate  @blackkitty2014 ! So cute. Agree, less sweet is good! 

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @Sunnysmom @Ispend2much6 . I can trick them eat these with ice cream. I’m okay with the muffin by itself 😂😅

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014It's very pretty!  I can see how it would have a good texture.

[SportyGirly125]

@blackkitty2014 Look so delicious.  I like mine less sweet. 

[blackkitty2014]

@SportyGirly125 that exactly what I think. Man and kids like exra sweet 😘

Not sure if anyone remembers my post couple months back about dragon fruit flower. So here are the flower, the fruit and how the inside looks. We need to figure out how to make our trees to produce more fruits.

@blackkitty2014 It's so gorgeous 😍

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014  I think I would really like a lipstick in the pink shade!

[Samtian]

@Ispend2much6 I think Bite had one a few years ago during the limited releases they did. I think I have it lol. 

[Ispend2much6]

@Samtian. Now that you mention it I think Sephora gifted us one.

[blackkitty2014]

@Ispend2much6 @I’m pretty sure I have couple hot pink lipsticks l😘

@blackkitty2014, I love dragonfruit! That would be awesome if you figured out how to produce more of the fruit!

[blackkitty2014]

@itsfi @It’s frustrating that we only have 1 fruit per tree. This year my husband was so busy with his work project so the garden got let go but hopefully we will change that next year. We also got a little red meat tree this year and it’s growing. I don’t think our red meat tree will produce until another 2 yrs though

I accidentally ordered sesame dressing instead of sesame oil, so I decided to make a Chinese chicken salad.  I bought some sumac recently and decided to try it on the chicken. It has a delicious lemony flavor, not what I was expecting from a paprika-colored spice!

 

 

[Sunnysmom]

Looks very good @eshoe , 😋. 

[eshoe]

Thank you, @Sunnysmom!. Salad is my favorite food, and most of the time I am stuck in a rut with a simple Greek salad. It was fun to try something different for a change!

[Ispend2much6]

@eshoe  Great idea- looks so good!

[eshoe]

@Ispend2much6 I was annoyed with myself because I needed the oil, so the dressing sat for a couple of weeks. I miss the variety of salads at restaurants so it was a fun experiment!

[SportyGirly125]

@eshoe Looks really yummy
