Hello and welcome to my weekly roundup of posts, you may have missed during the week… at the start of this week we were nearing the end of February and at the end, March will have arrived.. a quarter of the year is nearly gone…  the walking is still on track and the knee although not completely better is 97% better will I attempt to jog again not sure if I wish to tempt fate…I think I should be satisfied with the feeling of euphoria I experienced and leave it at that …the two men in this house I am proud to say are still NOT smoking and have increased their exercises I am so very proud of them …I never in a million years thought hubby would give up the cigarettes…

Monday Musings…

Welcome to Monday Musings where I explored the benefits of Olive Leaf extract another natural antibiotic it amazes me that many people now are turning again towards natural products to heal them and the power of some of these natural plants is astounding…

It was also international Polar Bear Day and it’s sad to hear how global warming is affecting these beautiful animals plus I snuck in a video on how we can reduce our carbon footprint quite easily by being aware…The music was from Lee Mead who made an awesome Joseph in his multicoloured coat…

Monday Musings 27th February 2023…Natural Antibiotic,Olive leaf Extract, Music from Lee Mead plus how to Reduce your Carbon Footprint at home…

This rewind gives me a chance to revisit the letter R in my first culinary A-Z…many of my favourite foods start with the letter R…Rice for one is my favourite carb and I eat rice every single day whether it be Jasmine Rice, black rice or raspberry rice as its called here, brown rice or Keow Neow which is sticky rice…

Before I came to live in Thailand I had been on a few holidays here and liked to cook Thai food at home… Mainly it was a disaster I just couldn’t cook a bowl of nice fried rice…It was absolutely awful…

Since living here I have had a few lessons from my daughter-in-law as to the error of my ways and now I can make a stir fry and hold my head up amongst most Thai cooks.

If you head over to Smorgasbord Magazine where Sally has kindly rewound this post…Thank you Sally we have the kettle on and you can read the original post where I will tell you how to make the perfect fried rice…See you there xx
