Meatless Monday

I did it with no problem. . No meat at all today. Breakfast - eggs and grits. Lunch - pita pocket of green peppers, onions, mushrooms and cheese. Then to top it off for dinner, I made a good eggplant parmesan. It came out great. Peelneggplant, dip in eggs, dip in whole wheat bread crumbs, fry. Spindle with parmesan chesse. Then pour on marinarra sauce. Bake about 10 minutes until bubbly. Then lay on mozzarella cheese. Bake until melted, enjoy with spaghetti

Hum. Now I see

I see at this blog it has vegetables on it. Did I know when I chose this that this was where I was headed? Not at all. Too bad it's so loud but we may as well make it loud.

I'M GOING VEGETARIAN AND PROUD OF IT.

YES, I've decided to go with the vegetable and fruit and nuts and legumes. Just waiting for my book to arrive so I can get at this properly. don't want to say, Oh I just eliminate meat. Well, I think I'll still eat Chicken and Seafood. I like my fish and sometimes a Little Chicken Parmesan my not be bad. It's more for my health now then the animals. I love animals but I'm not at the point of thinking my not eating them is going to save the planet. I have to save me and grow some stronger hair. That's my reason. Get off the blood pressure medication. It's not a strong one, just a precautions one.

Yesterday I ate only one meat meal and that was the bacon. I did that to get rid of it as I Just can't throw away food unless it's bad.

today, Monday June 6, is meatless Monday. I'll get a gadget to put on this site so we remember no meat on Mondays and then go forward.

I could have had my book here now but I decided to save $5. Wow. $5 and I could be reading or $5 in my pocket for more learning and supplies in my soaping adventures.

Another month flew

Man, I dont' get how these months are flying. I swear they are flying more when I'm not working then they do when I was working. Wow. Any how. I went for my usual but again, different, walk in the park today. That park is so uplifting. It picks me up when I"m down and it holds me when I'm cold. it warms me and welcomes my spirit. I talk to the trees and I get info from them also. Today my info was, use the Butterfly that you love as my watermark on my soaps. I might call my soaps Ancient Health, Ancient Heritage, Sun-Daze or even CocoPalm. I plan to put cocoa butter in all my products, hence the name cocoa and the palm oil will be in most of my soaps. I don't know. Names are so hard to choose. My sister says don't go doing what everyone else does by using the word *natural*. So, that's out. I can't call out to one ethnicity as that's not what it's about either. It's about using using good, natural, products from Africa, Ghana and Italy for the Olive Oil. All good oils with something to add to everyones skin. I love my soaping hobby and so look forward to sharing it with the world. Ya, I mean, I wish it makes it all the way to Cali, Texas, Wyoming, Washington State, and all the other states I'm looking at on this map on my wall. Got this map so I can relate to where others are as I read their blogs.
Here is a picture of what i'm talking about.

Lotion and soap

I just received some fantastic scents from a company I have used before but I think it has gotten better. I now believe I will be heading this way more often. I want to say, Bramble berry is kind and fast and you can get what you want in the amount you want. it is to no advantage of the company to have limits when there are a lot of soapers an crafters that do not want a large amount. most times you need to try it before you buy anything in a large amount. Companies like that force you to buy excess stuff that you don't need. when you shop, you should be able to get what you want at the market. Doesn't matter if it's one Banana or two bulky rolls. So to Bramble berry I'm glad to be able to make lotion today and use my new scent Mayan Gold. This stuff is so heavenly. It's very aromatic sexy tone and I just don't know, you won't find this in Victoria Secret. I also purchased Linden Blossom and Lavender and Herbs. Now I got the Lavender and herbs I was thinking for a nice clean scent. I want to have the room the Clients come in to get their massage smell earthy and clean. And..I tell you Linden Blossom is clean. So, If you are reading my blog and would like to try a bar, drop me a line, I'll send you some.

Walked today

Took a very long walk in the park today. I really really like that park. I don't know if I'll be doing any other exercise this evening but we'll see. I'd love to yoga at night but then I get so comfortable and don't want to move to the floor. :)

Wow Interesting

People really do read your blog. Well, I came to complain about being unemployed. I have a lot of skills I can do but all these skills cost money. Sure I make soap, lotion and sew but none of it can get done without the money to purchase the products. I feel this is a waste of time in my life because I want to learn how to install and maintain sisterlocks but I don't have the means. Am I not suppose to say that out loud? Well, it's the truth. Today, I'll be home doing not a darn thing. I've washed and waxed the floor. gone for a walk in the park and I have left over food to eat to nourish my body. All I can do I guess is read. Nothing more to be done. This is sad because I want to be productive and I can't.

May Day... May Day

It's the first of the Lovely month of May. Lots happen in May. I have a gorgeous wedding to go to. My son turns 32 and of course, it's Mother's day Month. .. yup. all month I say. Never get enough of appreciating the mother figure in your life. I'll always love my mom, here and there. Cause you only get one, you only get on ya.. I'll always love my moma.

I've still been exercising, just not recording. I have so much to do. Get my sewing area in order. Make items for massage, lotion, creams and whips. Find a good home for where will be my office space. Too bad we don't have one of those under the step cut outs. I saw one in a magazine.

I hope to exercise today. Hope. If I can make sure my stomach is not full when it's time to exercise. Then I really have to get this pocket book done since I only have a few days left. But when I sew, it's all minds on the sewing. Not thinking of what else needs attention. All is well, it's beautiful out side and .. I'm going to sew.:) see ya.
