I am back!!!
Hi all....
I really miss blogging....
It's been a while since my last post here...
Too many things happened in life.... I've been travelling, working and expanding the business, cooking and lots of stuff are going on since my last post in July 2011.
I am happy, though all those stuff are tiring, but I realized that I have to said Thanks to GOD, for making me busy, for I know that I am doing something with my life.
While busy making my life worth something, there are things that I have to left behind, well, everybody does. You have to lose some to win some, rite? I am too busy planning and make things works for the business, and expanding the business from cooking to fashion, and so did my husband. There are some friends parties that we can't make it, families occassion that we have to say sorry for not turning up, and gosh!!! I can't even make times for friends who fly back to KL just to hang around....Sounds really selfish, didn't I? (To all those, I am really sorry...)
But then, when you lost 2 of your great cousins at young age due to health issues (May Allah blesses their souls), you start thinking, are you living your life the way you want it to be? Life is too short! You should appreciate the people around you more than your work, than your wealth...
and, I realize that I miss blogging so much, and ignored all the readers who has been waiting for all the great issues to be posted.
I've been on my sick-bed since last Friday night...arghh the fever, coughing and flu are not going away soon...just a small test from Allah and I start to complaining much, where others have suffers worse than I do..masyaallah....so, I take the time to write to all the readers out there, all the good people who has mark something in my life, realizing that without any of you, i mean nothing in this world.
Lets take a break for a minute of your great days, said thank you to Allah for making our lives great, for we are here, surrounded by all the good people He has created, and make our life meaningful by cherish others.
Keep on reading my blog, I am back, for good....
Love all....

Examples of Healthy Food to Eat
Good health is essential for a proper lifestyle. This can basically be achieved by the consumption of healthy foods. The body needs particular foods for its growth, immunity and repair. Examples of the healthy foods include apples, sweet potatoes, almonds, broccoli, oat meal, oil fish, blue berries, avocados and green vegetables that are leafy.
Let's take the apples for a start. These fruits have antioxidants that play an important role of eliminating chemicals released in the body which result in early aging and particular diseases. Apples combat free radicals that trigger undesirable changes in the body. They also lower chances of heart diseases in adult females by about 8%.
Almonds on the other hand are rich in nutrients such as magnesium, iron, fiber, calcium, riboflavin and vitamin E. Almonds have a 91-94% unsaturated fatty acid profile which helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Moreover, almonds have the highest fiber content when compared to any other tree nut.
Broccoli is rich in sulforphane and the enzyme myrosinase that minimize the risk of cancer development. Broccoli should be lightly steamed to reduce the destruction of the enzyme myrosinase. Phytonutrients present in broccoli reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease. Other essential components in broccoli are the antioxidant beta-carotene, fiber, vitamin C and folate.
Blueberries have a significant nutritional value. They help reduce the development of diseases such as adipogenesis hypertension and cognitive decline in elderly. Hypertension is controlled by anthocyanins in the berries. Blueberries reduce chances of obesity by controlling the body weight. Intestinal diseases and hardening of arteries are reduced by blueberry consumption.
Oil fish plays a significant role in the nervous system as well as the heart. Arthritis, an inflammatory condition in particular patients, is reduced by oil fish. Moreover, vitamins A and D are obtainable in oil fish. The sole source of oil fish can be in trout, salmon, and mackerel which have it in their gut and tissues. Omega-3 fatty acids are specifically found in lean fillets.
Dark-leafy vegetables like spinach often lower the risk of developing diabetes type 2 when taken in large quantities. Lightly steamed spinach has high antioxidants content. The leafy vegetables are a good source phosphorus, zinc, iron, selenium, potassium manganese niacin, copper, calcium, folic acid, vitamins A, B6, C, E and K.
On the other hand the case for sweet potatoes that contain high content of dietary fiber for proper digestion. They have also other essential nutrients such as beta vitamin C, yellow and pink carotene, complex carbohydrates and vitamin B6. They are mover preferred when compared to other foods.
Ground oat porridge is the sole source of oatmeal. Regular consumption of oatmeal helps in reducing high levels of blood cholesterol. This is because it contains high content of soluble fiber. When oat foods are taken with foods having a low diet, they provide cardiovascular heart benefits. Oats slow down digestion with the help of water-soluble fiber.
Finally, healthy foods are summarized by avocados which help in prevention of oral cancer. They not only stop cells of oral cancer but they also kill some pre-cancerous cells. The levels of cholesterol in blood can be reduced by regular consumption of avocados. Avocado also contains high insoluble fiber and vitamins B, K and E.

3 Simple menus & quick easu recipes on a busy day
Form 4-5 Patties from 1 pound of meat, place in a hot heavy bottom pan, turning only once. When they have reached the doneness you like, remove and place on a lipped platter. Add 1 teaspoon of beef bullion to the pan, then add 1/2 cup water, let it heat as you scrape the bottom to release the stuck on tidbits. If you want to make gravy add a little milk after turning off the heat. Use it to pour over your meat patties or use as a dipping sauce.
Wash Potatoes, cut out any blemishes, slice about 1/4 inch thick. Place them in the bottom of a steamer and cook until almost soft. [test with a shape knife] Add drained green beans for the last 3-4 minutes of cooking. Place in bowl and dot with butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
[2] Mac and Cheese w/Broccoli
Add 1/2 cup of chopped Broccoli to the cooking pasta about six minutes after the water starts to boil, drain until no water is left in the pasta and broccoli, then add cheese mixture, butter and milk. Stir until pasta is thoroughly covered.
Wash tomatoes and wipe dry. Cut into slices or quarter. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Heat applesauce in the microwave until warm but not hot, add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the top and mix. If you applesauce is unsweetened, you may want to make a mixture of 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 cup sugar and use it, instead of the straight cinnamon.
[3] Chicken Legs
Coat chicken legs with a mixture of 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon rosemary and thyme. Place them on a broiler pan and cook in a preheated 375 degree oven for 25 minutes, turning once.
Heat a 12 ounce package of frozen corn in a sauce pan with about 3/4 inch of water. You want enough water to cause steam but do not cover the corn with liquid. When corn is done, drain most of the water off and add room temperature butter. Stir until each kernel of corn is covered in butter. Serve while hot.
Wash and dry your fresh greens. Chop or tare into small pieces and add to a bowl big enough to toss vegetables. You may add other fresh veggies then toss with a simple vinaigrette dressing.
1 part acid [vinegar, lemon juice, orange juice, tomato, etc]
3 parts oil [olive, vegetable, grape, etc]

1/2 teaspoon Italian spices or spices of your choice.
