Breakfast Club

Pineapple, cherries, pomegranate, blueberries, raspberries and water. That’s all I needed to make breakfast the other day. All the fruits were washed, chopped and frozen – waiting to be selected for this healthy delight. How long did it take to prepare? No more than 5 minutes! And that’s no lie. Don’t get me wrong, thereContinue reading “Breakfast Club”

A Random Dish: Chickpeas, Spinach, Carrots, Onions, Sweetcorn, Pilau-rice, Sesame Seeds, Tomatoes and Curry

I had walked to Marks & Spencer early in the morning yesterday, the outbound journey was alright.

Update: My Ovarian Cyst – Bean

Almost a year ago, I shared with you all the horrible GP (General Practitioner) appointment I had. Which subsequently led to finding out that I had a cyst on my left ovary. I named the cyst ‘Bean,’ as it was the size of a baked bean when I first found out about him. He grewContinue reading “Update: My Ovarian Cyst – Bean”

The Daily Walk

I’ve not been running/jogging much lately, though I’ve been walking each day – not really on Sundays. I’ve increased my walking from 20 minutes to 45 minutes, minimum per walk. It’s been an experience getting the know a bit better the city I live in. From the roads that are covered in dust, to streetsContinue reading “The Daily Walk”

Wednesday Wisdom

The statement above resonates with me on so many levels, as I find when I don’t feel like something is going to be a challenge, I slack off. There have been a few days during Rona’s Rampage, where I don’t feel like I’ve done enough – I get back home and think? Hmm, I should’veContinue reading “Wednesday Wisdom”
