嫉妒

當我們看到別人幸福的時候，有可能產生兩種情緒：

第一是嫉妒心，第二是隨喜心。

嫉妒會使自己心生不滿，由此產生痛苦；
隨喜卻會使自己快樂，並增長福德資糧。

回顾2014

回头一望 2014 接近尾声了...

想我真的应该

把放不下但该放下的都放下
把拿不起但该拿起的都拿起

把想不清楚的都搞清楚
把搞不清楚的都想清楚

放不下的，都是對自己的懲罰，
冷漠，學習用微笑面對，
傷害，學習用祝福相贈。

當給自己的愛足夠，你會瞭解，
讓別人快樂是慈悲，讓自己快樂是智慧。

Greek Yogurt

Added some yogurt as topping with a touch of raisins together with lettuce and cherry tomato.

Awesome salad for someone with sweet tooth :)

Because its getting addictive.

So i got abit sick of eating yogurt everyday for the past two days and i decided to try the recipe WITHOUT yogurt. And it taste real good as well ;)

Overnight Oats without Yogurt.

Ingredients: 

:: Milk :: Oats :: Banana :: Strawberry&Bluberries :: Sunflower & Pumpkin Seeds :: Honey ::

Note: Strawberries gives a sour touch to the whole recipe and if you are not a sour food person, skip it. Just banana + honey works awesome as well.

Step 1.  Oats + Milk - as usual, ensure milk covers all od oat and a lil bit more.

Step 2. Put in Strawberry chunks (i'm doing so coz i still have plenty of them left) plus some of my favorite sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds.

Step 3. Pour in honey. 

Step 4. Banana and Blueberries and more honey and more seeds :)

DONE :D

Cover it up and leave it in the refrigerator as usual. 

Should i try nutella with banana next? hmmm ...

First Salad Recipe.

Could this even be classified as a recipe? i really dont know. But it is a good (tea time) meal so i'll just put it up for reference.

Ingredients:

:: Lettuce :: Cherry Tomatoes :: Sesame Sauce ::

Step 1:

Wash and prepare all ingredients into bite sizes. I prefer to keep the sauce aside and only mix it in when i wanna eat.

Step 2:
Pour the sauce in and start eating.

Yeap thats all folks LOL

P.s. if left uneaten till night, bring it out when yumcha with friends and add them into your indomee or maggie mee goreng. taste awesome with maggie as well :p

Eating Clean.

Looking at my bulging tummy, I've decided to start eating clean (maybe at least for a week? :p)
Prior to my master plan, I gave myself 3 days to eat whatever I want as a pre reward. Then here it goes … 7 days of eating clean.

Day 1 Breakfast: Overnight Oats

Items required:
:: Glass jar :: Spoon::

Ingredients:
:: Greek yogurt :: Cooking Oats :: Milk :: Topping(s) ::

Toppings can be anything preferred. Generally classified into two types, fruits & nuts.
Fruits: Raisins, Cranberries, or have it fresh: Just use any fruit available at the moment and cut them into small pieces.
Nuts: Sunflower seeds, Pumpkin Seeds, walnut … available in most grocery stores.


:: Sunflower Seeds :: Pumpkin Seeds :: Walnuts ::

 Steps:

1 Scoop two big scoops of greek yogurt into the jar.

2 Pour in Oats. Yogurt to oats ratio 1:2. Then pour in milk. Ensure milk covers a lil more than top of oats.

3 Put in topping. Nuts then fruits then nuts. As much as u like as long as it fits into the jar.

4 Keep in refrigerator for the night.

5 Remember to stir well reaching to bottom (to ensure yougurts are mixed up with the oats) before enjoying your awesome overnight oats :D

FAQs

1. Why Greek yogurt?

No not because this recipe is inspired by Greece folks. Greek yogurt is much thicker than normal yogurt so it stays there for the night and allows oats to absorb milk without the involvement of yogurt. A complicated 3 way relationship yea I know.

Tips: Compare the prices of yoghurt among brands. Quite big difference.

2. Flavored or non flavored yoghurt?

Up to you. Flavored yoghurt give sweeter taste that’s all.

After one or two trials following the recipe, go ahead customizing your oats. I used peach flavored yogurt and i put in sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts, blueberries and strawberries chunks. Sunflower seeds are my all-time favourtie and raisins is always my backup plan when I'm out of fresh fruits.

#HopeThisWillLast :)

不見了 …

偶然想起好久不見它了 不知道還是不是在老地方
於是爬起身找呀找找不到 …
是因為我一直把它的存在看成理所當然 然後一轉身赫然發現他不見了 感覺太無奈了！
於是不斷的找了好久 突然問了問自己
其實這麼想找回是因為：

不甘願它突然不見了所以勢必要找到它
想把它找回看了看然後把它放回原位
還是真的想要需要它了呢？
怎麼說都是我忽略它了所以才會有這時的下場吧 那就是我活該 沒別的

放棄吧它是你的它就會回來的 …
還是你擔心你這時的不努力才是他消失的真正原因？

'Healthy Nougat'

What should i do with a packet of (partially) melted marshmallows?

A: Turn it into a hopefully healthy snack :D

Ingredients:
:: Marshmallows :: Granola/Cereal :: Cranberries ::
Note: Measurement for this recipe is quite flexible hence feel free to prepare according to preference. More cereal (or less marshmallow) will make less sweet nougat. 

Also needed: 
:: ZipLock Bag :: Spatula ::

Step 1:
Prepare granola and cranberries in a bowl. Cut cranberries into smaller pieces.

Step 2:
Melt the marshmallows. In a pot, or put it in a bowl and melt it in microwave.

Step 3:
Once marshmallow is melted and soft, pour in the bowl of ingredients prepared. Mix them well using a spatula.

Step 4: 

Put the mixture a ziplock bag. Before sealing it tight, even out mixture for nicer looking cubes. Let it cool in refrigerator.

Step 5:

Next day, cut them into cubes. Leaving it in refrigerator will keep it hard but i think its nicer soft.

Note: These cubes are sticky and chewy when soft but it sure taste good and healthy.

:: Go get creative :D
