Breakups...

and their effect on your physical body.

Did you know that after an emotional breakup your body feels pain when seeing a photo of your ex?

 

 Same it feels when you leave your favorite place, like selling your house, or losing your favorite shirt..

We love, we fall in love.. better said: FALL IN STUPID. Only when you are over your ears in love you do things you never would if you were "thinking normal"

:))

What is that, anyways? Makes me laugh just thinking about it. We fall in stupid, though. You sit and reflect.

Why we pick the broken heart up, patch it up and then, here we go again. Looking for "love" a.k.a. the next one who will break it in more pieces than it was. The sense of belonging, maybe? The tingle you get in your stomach, or your toes, or wherever you feel it, can't be replaced. Or can it?

Food. It can do the trick. The fullness sensation can be a way!

 

That is what bodybuilders can say as well. Being in the gym, feeling the "sweet burn" of the muscle growing fixes everything. Then the result, the visual result, is pretty awesome! ;) check this guy out 

 Eye candy. 

A breakup does lots of damage if you've invested a lot of yourself in that relationship. Or it can do absolutely nothing, if all it was just a "fling". Men usually, (not all macho) get over a breakup easier. I say: MYTH!

              LOVE IS PAIN

also this video  can explain it better:   video that explains like WHOA!

I am not sure what advice to give for the ones that have broken hearts. Hold on to your sanity and don't do anything stupid. (really!) This too shall pass. Time is of the essence. :P  Let it come and go. During the tic-tacs do something constructive. Fill your time with new activities or old ones. Find a new hobby. Go on a vacation. Find a support group. Meetup has interesting groups that seriously can fit any and everything you can think of.

stay sexy!   xoxo

Chorba- The Poor Man's Food

                                      shchavelya sup

lean about çorba
                          Ciorbă    

Arab word, for SOUP. 

Turkish use it as well. 

Ukrainians, Romanians, Russians 

in general use this term.

CHORBA


Supposedly it is..   "the poor man's food"    - because during the war, families were so poor, they would eat first the meat off the bone, the first day, (cooked of course) then the next days they would boil the bones and add whatever vegetables they had, and fill their stomachs and their children with it... and each day, they would add more and more water, until there was so transparent, it was like water.

How I see it:
boiled water= killed all germs from the water, "sanitized"
veggies= flavor released and not destroy all the nutrients
meat - if any, but not always

If hydrates you, fills you up without feeling "heavy", and you are eating your veggies. :)
Unless you want to use a replacement then go that route. but it looks much better one of these:

I grew up with CHORBA, every lunch time, SOUP, or I didn't feel I ate that day. :P

It was a culture shock, somewhat, to learn that in the US, lunch is usually a sandwich.. but, "when in Rome..."

make  your own  lunch. And that is SOUP!  

I don't have to be sick to eat chicken soup! I am rather: If I don't eat soup at lunch, I'll get sick.

Lenten Soup Recipe

The difference between SOUP and Chorba is?



Soup is "transparent" and may not have meat.

CHORBA- is thicker, can't see through it, contains meat.

I enjoy making soup, because ABSOLUTELY EVERY TIME, it comes out different. I obviously don't like repetition, same things, routine. 

So, throwing in there anything (edible and not expired) lol  fresh veggies, is a treat itself. 

Cutting it "by the book" is not in my vocabulary either. So if I feel like crinkle carrots and polka dots potatoes to have in my CHORBA today, that will happen. 

    Blini- Russian pancakes


Matryoshka pendants



Spices, are again- at my choice. Not spicy though! the only "SPICY" we use is pepper and paprika. Hard to believe, right?  Especially when here, curry and tabasco sauce are a "usual" in many meals

VEGETA spices YUMM!!









I've just discovered KALE and I had it in my fridge.  So,  my chorba has:

KALE   facts about KALE
CARROTS    a fun read about CARROTS
GNOCCHI  WHAT IS GNOCCHI
CHICKEN  chicken cubes
and spices.

so, how do we call this one?   KA-GNO-CA-CHI?  :))  lol   (I like word play)

I fried the carrots before, not too much, just enough to get them gooey and sweet,

 pour more water, 

gnocchi- already boiled, drop it in there,

then add chicken cubes- already boiled

and KALE-

and boil 'till I get tired :P

The flavor of Kale comes out and at taste, it still good texture, and yet it's not as bitter. 

add VEGETA.

tadam!!      I poured it in jars, to freeze it as I may get bored of eating same type of soup a few days in a row.

so drop the fast food, and sandwiches at lunch.
too easy!   xoxo

Healthy Or Happy? EASY (somewhat) Wierd Recipes

a.k.a.   Mid-nite "healthy" snakcking!

Being always on the run, I forget to eat a good meal. So, cookies and chocolate are a quick fix.

Being always on the run, all food stays "longer fresh", well, FROZEN.

So after a full 4 days of shooting, and meetings, I've found myself at 2:30 a.m. after some grueling homework, I needed some sugar in my organism. And yet, wanting to be healthy.  GRRRR!! I've discovered chocolate chip cookies and everything with 65% more cocoa to be on my taste. In the same time I've realized I kind of substituted almost every meal with those "goodies". 

I simply picked up an apple and wanted it warm. So, I guess at 2 in the morning, anything goes… I picked what I saw first in the fridge.

Playing with the apple in my hand, I tried some juggling. All I was doing was more bruising to the apple than juggling. So I picked up a pan.  And from there this came out.

A no meat snack, supposedly healthy, and no cookies in sight. I made a promise to someone special (besides myself), that I will "correct" myself.  :-p

Sauté App-Gar-Car-Toe Sammich experiment-


but before all the ingredients, and instructions, here is something i want to share: Ghee.          The miracle Bollywood Fat  or GHEE

1tsp of oil/butter/ghee
1 apple sliced, no seeds
mix in there till you can smell it
1 half cup of garlic uncut
mix together until it turns brown on both sides
1 half cup of carrots (frozen)
mix it all till carrots are softened/defrosted and then hard again
1 tomato cut European style slices
sizzle it in over all that, till turns into a paste

stir often. (i had the garlic in a bag in the freezer and it turned out very puffed up and juicy inside.- good)

With each ingredient addition, new aromas filled the kitchen.

and pour it all on toasted bread.

While all this stirring and mixing, I got really hungry so, again, opened the fridge and picked what I saw first: a guacamole jar, bread and the MILD salsa jar.

Guaca-Salsa Sammich
 2/3 parts guacamole+ 1/3 part salsa
--------------------------------------------------
         =on toast.

The spices from the salsa numbed my taste buds, and still i was able to sense each bite, with its own specific "smack and sting".

Notice, I did not add any spices, powders, dried greens, not even salt or pepper. I like to have each taste untamed, natur, if better said. :)

Now, let's get down to business. What is this good for? A mid-night snack?! Never healthy. Unless mid-night is just a number on the clock, you don't go to sleep right after.

Apple- good for digestion
garlic- anti infection
carrots- good for skin
tomato- iron

guacamole- simply rich. FYI, in many countries in South America, mothers of newborns, if they can't nurse their babies, a liquefied paste made from avocados is made and fed to them, until they are able to eat solid foods.  
salsa, just because I wanted something spicy. It was salty, but mixed with guacamole, on the hot toast, did amazing. :)

Stay Sexy and Snack Healthy!  xoxo
