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? 😄

Yum, yum, yum @Mellmars1185 !

[heartsmyface]

@Mellmars1185  Those leftovers would go sooooo well in eggs:)

[Mellmars1185]

@heartsmyface Brilliant! My fiancée made garlic bread with one of the buns so the egg would be perfect with the rest 😊. I hate wasting!

Home grown grapes 🍇 In the past, we always have tons of them. They’re sweet but small. This year they look as good as the store brought one. 

[heartsmyface]

@blackkitty2014  Wow that’s a lot of grapes!!!!  The weather must have been absolutely perfect this year!!

@blackkitty2014 ,

Your grapes are beautiful!  Do you make juice?

[blackkitty2014]

@tsavorite @great idea! I don’t know how but I can look it up 😘 👍🌹❤️

[tsavorite]

@blackkitty2014 ,

Some people "can" the juice in jars, if you have an abundance of grapes.  It's really delicious.  🍇

[Mellmars1185]

@blackkitty2014 Thise look juicy and tasty! Are they sweet or tarte grapes? 🍇

[blackkitty2014]

They’re sweet @Mellmars1185 . For years my husband is struggling to make the grape size bigger. We are not quite sure why they’re goos this year

@blackkitty2014 Wow, that's so impressive. It's my dream to grow some goodies in my yard, those grapes look absolutely amazing.

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @QueenMarceline 🌹I”ll tell my husband. He did all the works and I ate all the fruits well except for avocados. I love avocados but not a fanatic liked he does. He sure does has a green thumb 

[Ispend2much6]

You grow grapes also???!  How large is your yard
@blackkitty2014?

[blackkitty2014]

@Ispend2much6 @I wish I can say we live in a mansion but we don’t 🤣😂😘 The yard is big but not that big. My husband grows these along the backyard fences  Sometimes he amazes me of how many things he can grow in tiny little space 😂🤣

[heartsmyface]

@blackkitty2014   Do you live by a lake?   And have you ever made wine?  

[blackkitty2014]

@heartsmyface @no we don’t.  It would be fun to learn how to make wine. I’ll probably do it in the future. 😘

These look mouthwatering delicious and refreshing @blackkitty2014! 🍇 I love seeing the 2 teeny green ones too, peeking out through the full sized grapes.

[blackkitty2014]

@itsfi We do have Thompson (Green) grapes too. I just forgot to take pictures. The only problem is we have more than we can consume 😂🤣

[heartsmyface]

@blackkitty2014  Frozen grapes make the best smoothies!!!   

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @heartsmyface 👍

[itsfi]

@blackkitty2014, you have so many wonderful treats growing in your garden. ♥️ You know, if you need help eating all those, I’m sure we can find a few folks on BIC who would be willing to help. 😉
