I’m testing: Organic hemp spaghetti

Posted on April 9, 2010 2:19 pm Comments Off

Hemp Spaghetti is made from hard wheat (Durum wheat semolina) and hemp flour, rich in omega 3 and omega 6. In the beginning I thought it tasted grainy/fibrous/nutty. It’s hard to describe exactly, but the more I eat it, I’m getting more “hooked” ^^

Ingredients
Hemp spaghetti
Marinated halloumi cheese
Marinated artichokes
Bell pepper
Fresh spinach
Fresh cilantro

Directions
1. Follow the direction on the package to cook hemp spaghetti
2. Cut vegetables and cheese in smaller size. Chopped cilantro. Mix everything with the hemp spaghetti. Finish!

I’ve shopped for some more decorating items and re-arranged the furniture. It felt so empty before but now it’s really cozy.

Don’t worry be happy

Posted on April 6, 2010 10:50 am Comments here (3) ♥

Since I started getting more active I’ve been feeling great, but my appetite is also increasing. Don’t worry, be happy. The extra weight will be gone when the body is ready and when it’s time. It’s best to start workout my biceps so I can lift some furniture and boxes. :)

Shopping day

Posted on April 4, 2010 9:27 pm Comments Off

M and I went out for lunch today and then we went shopping for some clothes, candle light holders, and a toy for our little sweet cat. The biggest joy was that we both could buy a smaller size pants. We have moved around a lot, and it’s time to move again, to a better place (same area). I feel that it’s time to create a home so we’re going to put effort in the decorating area.

The candle light creates nice and warming homey feelings

A super nice day

It’s wonderful weather outside today. I did 18 minutes of yoga and then some easy jogging/walking for about 1.2 miles (2km). Wohoo!

Last year this time around I couldn’t even jog because I weighed too much.

Wonderful fresh air!
it's a sunny day

Relax time!

Posted on April 2, 2010 8:47 pm Comments Off

I decided not to workout today because it starts to feel like a boring routine. It’s important to know the different between laziness and a boring routine, otherwise it’s easy to lose the motivation if you just keep going ;) I’m not going to do anything but relax today, eating ice cream, watching a movie and Lost.

How does your workspace look like at home? Mine is always plain looking. I’ve to learn how to decorate.

My old workspace looks like this. I’ve rearranged the furniture now but it doesn’t look any better.

Thursday evening

I wanted to go out for a long walk in the evening, but I had to cut it short and turn back home because I was so thirsty for a glass of water. Then it was tea time.

At 6:03 pm

The healthy eating food pyramid

I love this food pyramid. What do you think of  it? I think this is what it should look like, exercise, weight, and water (active lifestyle) at the base.
