Those pesty tick bites!

Have you ever seen a tick?  

In 2010, while being a member of a support team for the BT1000 I was bitten by ticks in many places and unfortunately they had left 3 nasty bite effects on the back of my right shoulder, and 1 behind my right kneeI had been too busy with my responsibilities and role then that I neglected to attend to those tick bites immediately.  Unfortunately I have been experiencing itchiness from those 4 pesty tick bites since then!

Why Are Monkeys So Happy All The Time?

Could it really be because of BANANAS?

Baked Nutty Potato & Broccoli Stem Venture


    Potatoes are a great source of carbohydrates and I often include 1 potato into my daily juicing.  At other times I turned it into hot grilled chilli chips.  Yesterday evening, I experimented with some red potatoes and came out with a new dish for my guests. I had earlier bought a broccoli with a long, I mean a long stem attached to it.  

    Vegetarian Dry Vermicelli

    Vermicelli is a very popular processed rice ingredient among the Singaporean Chinese.  I remember eating cooked vegetarian vermicelli for breakfast 3-4 times a week as it was easily available at the hawker stalls in the food section of the local wet market in Singapore.   In those days, most of the ingredients in the food I ate were cooked with high temperatures.  Well, today since I had changed the way I eat my food, I had improvised the dish to make the vegetables warmed only very slightly so as not to kill the enzymes and minerals present.  You can use most vegetables for this dish, just make sure you don't overcook them otherwise you will bring out the liquid in the vegetables and render the dish soggy.  It is meant to be dry, vegetables are still crunchy, with full flavour and lots of colour!

    Grilled Potato Chips



    I love chips!!!  So I've chosen grilled red potato chips instead of deep fried chips as all heated vegetable oils and fats are harmful to the body and potentially carcinogenic!  Then, have a bed of leafy red lettuce to go with it to control the acid/alkaline balance factor.


    Then on the other hand, I can also eat chips prepared in a dehydrator.  Well, one day I'll get to it but now back to the grilled red potato chips!
