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? 😄

Before the holidays my boss at work gave out giftcards to her people. I ended up with one for Texas Roadhouse. Since we were up in Idaho Falls getting my shots I needed we stopped in.

@Samtian   I've had that chicken- it's really good!  Yay for mushroom lovers!

Mom looks tiny- did she finish that steak? Where would she put it? 😉

[Samtian]

@Ispend2much6 I think it needed some cheese but it was good 🙂 Ah I love mushrooms! No mom didn't come close to finishing the steak lol.

I love Texas road house! That looks amazing and the cupcake looks so yummy! Sounds like fun! @Samtian 

[Samtian]

@peculiarzmakeup I really liked the shrimp there! I think it needs more seafood options lol. 

[peculiarzmakeup]

They have the best shrimp for sure I love the sweet potato but only the sweet stuff they put it in it not so much the potato 🤣 and the bread with cream cheese! That is s a cool place I used to call it the peanut place cause they were on the floor haha @Samtian

Here's some of my over the holidays cooking. I found a magazine at Wal*Mart that said 100 different Holiday/Christmas cookies. So I bought that and made 3 for Christmas dinner.

@Samtian  These cookies are beautiful!  They remind me of snow, which is a good thing.  I might need to use your decorating idea for making cookies with my snowflake cookie cutter. 

[Samtian]

@Ispend2much6 Oh those would be cute!
