What's on your plate?

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? 😄

Re: What's on your plate?

@Ispend2much6  these all look so delicious! I've never heard of Spitzenburg apples, they sound like they would taste so good, I'd definitely love to try them!

Re: What's on your plate?

@caitbird  The farther north you live, it seems the better the chance you have of obtaining these special varieties.

Re: What's on your plate?

@Ispend2much6  interesting, that is good to know! I live in an area with a lot of small farms so I bet we have some interesting varieties around here.

Re: What's on your plate?

How fabulous and how lucky you are! @Ispend2much6 I am drooling at these pictures. 🤩 You know what? Apple crisp is my favorite too. Your baking thou, it looks phenomenal!👌

Re: What's on your plate?

@CynthieLu  Thanks, I am blessed.  That farm has been here for years, and I ignored it!  One year I tried some apples from it or another nearby farm, and they were dry and mealy, so I never gave it another thought.  Whole Foods used to import apples from New York, a really wide variety, some heirloom also.  They stopped, and I had to settle for Macintosh, Empire, etc.  Which did the job.

But someone I know travels nearly an hour to go to this farm, so I started going also.  It's wonderful to have that option, especially in a year when we were able to grow nothing in our garden but cucumbers and basil.  I have no idea what happened, but I just saw my first wasp of the year the other day!  No pollinators!

Re: What's on your plate?

I'm so sorry to hear your garden was not producing for you this year, I hope next year you have an abundance of insects, especially helpful pollinators. 🐝 🌺 @Ispend2much6

Re: What's on your plate?

@CynthieLu  he ordered one of the specials which was some kind of steak, he said it was really good. And yes, he did get the same cheesecake too! I love cheesecake (more than I should lol), and this one was amazing!

Re: What's on your plate?

Another day another batch of Homemade Pizzas 🍕 I make the dough and put them together and then my husband cooks them on our pizza stone on the BBQ, they are the best pizzas ever! Even our kids say it’s better than takeout which is a huge win 😂 My favourite is the upper right pizza, BBQ chicken, perfection. We gobbled these down in no time! 

Re: What's on your plate?

@bakeamuffin These pizzas look amazing. It sounds like it was a team effort! It is always nice when you can make a meal that the whole family enjoys. Who needs take out or delivery pizza when you can make these masterpieces of deliciousness?!
