Another month, another loss… Here’s the playlist for the last month of this long and weird 2021: Last month I told you about how Tomate left us in a long day process. How he breathed his last breath next to me in my bed. He was a relatively young cat, 10 years old. But what hurt most wasn’t his age, it was that it happened so suddenly.It wasn’t the same with Oliva, I knew she was going to…
Before you begin reading, please play the October playlist. It makes the experience different, in a good way. 馃檪 This September has been charged with the Virgo energy for sure. I’ve been planning and doing too much stuff. Apart from breakfasts, I really didn’t have much time during the first half of the month to cook for myself so I ended up eating whatever was in the fridge, outside or salads in a plastic package.聽 I know packaged salads aren’t…
This post is brought to you by Stress. If you wanna buy some, click the link in the bio…I鈥檒l gladly give it all away. 聽 聽 The delay on publishing this post is only caused by stress. I know I seem like a cheerful gal (and I am) but my life is a very stressful one. I deal with a lot of different things every day, and unfortunately, most of them aren鈥檛 something I enjoy. 聽 聽 Writing this, on…
I know it’s December already. I’ve guessed you are saturated with all the Christmas recipes and desserts and gift guides. So I thought I may offer you something completely different. Because, you know, we eat every day, and Christmas it’s just a couple of weeks of celebrating. Why am I saying all this? Because I have a light, healthy and uncomplicated recipe for those days “in-between” the festivities. Just one thing, don’t worry if you can’t…
Whenever I’m lazy for breakfast I think…Avocado Toast. The same happens at lunch and…guess what’s for dinner? I usually have a meal plan for the week, but if everything goes wrong…Avocado Toast. I’ve made so many different versions of the so-called Avocado Toast that I just go with the flow. Lately I’ve been doing this recipe, but who knows what tomorrow brings. I’ve started calling them avotoasts. So, from now on, avotoasts it is. The base is always the same…half…
Don’t you love how pretty colours are? I’ve always been fascinated by them. All of them. Since I was a little worm, I said my three favourite colours were blue, pink and yellow. Ain’t it funny how they are the only thing you need to create the rest of them? I’ve always been wise, even when I was ignorant of what primary colours were. Blue has always been an obsession in my life, though so whenever I have to choose…
I love this dessert. The good thing about it is that it is so energetic and so healthy that it makes a perfect breakfast, afternoon snack, dessert after lunch…you name it! The base is simple: bananas, peanut butter and cacao nibs. That’s it…the rest is up to your imagination. A couple of weeks ago, Luc铆a (a friend) and I decided that the best way to keep in touch was to meet for breakfast on Sundays. And I must say, we…
You know, when people eat meat they usually go to meat when they feel lazy to cook. Anything easier than throwing a steak on a pan and cook it for a couple of minutes? When people go vegan, they go for the easiest substitutes like veggie patties or seitan steaks. They are usually highly processed foods, so that’s a no-no for me. When people go plant-based and want to follow a healthy lifestyle, they go for tofu or tempeh,…
Ain’t it funny how life works? Usually I plan my blog posts. I think about a recipe and then I get ready to take the photos and make more than one crappy iphone pic in order to edit them afterwards and create a nice blog post for you guys and gals to read. Well, life is teaching us lessons all the time, I’m learning about forgetting about anticipation. People don’t mind how much time you spent doing something, they like…
Although it’s raining here today, I can hear the birds singing through my back door. Maybe it has something to do with me prepping the soil for the veggie garden (robins love hanging around me in order to catch some good worm breakfast), but it’s obvious Spring has settled in. May it’s a great month for new beginnings, specially now that the New Moon is coming. But what’s better for May when the Sun is shining and you crave fresh…
