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? 😄

Your such a sweet mama @Mellmars1185 I bet he was so happy!  There's something special about being a kid and your mom making you your favorite dish. 

Happy birthday to your son! 🎁🍰( It's a fun coincidence my kiddo turned 13 a few days ago, looks like thier Birthday's are not to far apart. 🥳)

Trader Joe's Kimbap ($3.99) have a cult following and is nearly impossible to find. If you can find them, there's a limit (at least here in SF) of 2 per person, to allow everyone an opportunity to buy. One of the best items I've had from Trader Joe's.

@itsfi This looks very tasty. Next time I am able to go to a Trader Joes, I will try to get this.  Can you eat right out of the package? Does it require any heating?

[SportyGirly125]

@Mellmars1185 @You have to heat it up. I tried it and my Mom, Dad, and I thought it was okay could be better. 

[itsfi]

@Mellmars1185, the one from Trader Joe's has to be heated in the microwave. When I pick up kimbap from the Korean market, I can just pop 'em in my mouth straight from the tray. There are usually usually dipping sauces for kimbap (or a package of soy sauce with the ones from the Korean markets), but they also taste delicious without.

Okay, now, it's stop by the Korean market and pick up Korean tofu stew on my way home today. My goodness, it seems that more than just by beauty shopping list gets longer thanks to the lovelies here on BIC! 😉 @blackkitty2014

Well I try to distract you from the beauty sale @itsfi 😘

[itsfi]

lol, you're doing a magnificent job @blackkitty2014! A++ 😘 

I have a small list with products I give myself permission to purchase when I'm on a no-buy if the item releases or comes back in stock during a no-buy period. I will be re-working that list this weekend; it's, errrr, gotten a tad longer than it's supposed to be. 😅 

btw, if you make hot pot or go out to Korean food, post pics, blackkitty2014! 

[blackkitty2014]

I need to get this @itsfi . Come to think of it, I haven’t had Korean food for so long. Need to find good some hotpot or Korean bbq locally 😘 but hotpot should be easy, I need to make some 

[itsfi]

Yum, Korean bbq!! 😍 Ohhh, it's been raining all morning here @blackkitty2014, and it's supposed to rain for most of today, so hot pot or sundubu-jigae sound perfect! And, I could go for Korean BBQ any time! Hmmm, you're making me rethink today's schedule - may have to pick up some soft tofu stew on my way home after running errands today. 🤔
