[wafflewaffle]

So you know any nice vegetarian recipes I can try at all? Xx

 

[Destamia]

That risotto looks lovely! May I please have your recipe?

thank you MC , recipe is very easy =) I make syn free chicken stock - what ever cubes you like to use I have oxo ones. Dont ask me to say how many grams of rice I use - I dont know ,lol - I do it as much as I want to =)

what you need
risotto rice
onion
chicken stock
mushrooms
tarragon
feta
salt
pepper

I make hot chicken stock and put it aside
then I chop onion and fry onion with fry light for 30 sec on hot pan. Add rice and fry for another 30 sec or min . rice will change in color , then I start add stock - I add only so much that it will cover rice and keep adding stock as soon as rice gets too dry. It will take about 15 min , you need to keep mixing rice so it wount burn. When rice is almost done - it should be creamy - I add mushroom , i dont fry em first but you could if you want to. Then give it a taste , add salt if needed , pepper and tarragon. Last is feta - when mushroom are cooked / few min really/ add your feta ( 45 g as He ) and mix until feta melts down and gives risotto nice , creamy texture. Enjoy =)

So you know any nice vegetarian recipes I can try at all? Xx

I know few =) vegetarian recipes , but Im not vegetarian myself so I have no idea what to say =) Are you eating eggs ? Fish ? Anyway - I will write done few I like to do from time to time.

Pasta salad with Thai curry paste and cottage cheese. I cant tell enough times, if you havent tried thai curry paste and cottage cheese together as an tip for veggies or salad dressing - do try it. Its amazing. So for this salad I use bigger pasta like shell shape , add what ever veggies you like - cucumber, paprika, spring onion, celery, tomato, peas, sweetcorn - what ever you like. Boil pasta, cool it down / use left over from last night/ , add veggies, cottage cheese and thai curry paste for taste. Fresh herbs if you like -coriander will go well. This is so nice , that I think I need to do it again myself someday =)

Other one I do like to do and would like to share is Bors - its Russian / Ukraine most amazing soup of all time. Could be done with or without meat.
But its difficult to explain how to do it - as you dont know how it should taste either. Will make Bors next week and make photos on the way , then I can explain what Im doing and show you all.
Its simple beetroot - cabbage - and other veggies soup. Very nice indeed

Im a big believer that if something is meant to be it will be. If you meant to meet someone you will meet that someone.

Today on my way to work , my bus turned away and go round. I was upset because this meant I probably will be late to work and then there was traffic because all of busses were trying to get trough. Siting in my seat very very nervous and then I look outside ( it was center of Birmingham ) and see little girl. She was in her home I guess. Big box where she was siting and counting something in her hands. Outside the box there were her shoes and cloths. She must have been about 10 years old. People were passing but no one ever looked at her.


I made photo and as I was so busy and being late I just did not know what to do with the photo. Some moment bus open the doors and we could get out. The reason why we were send around was that there have been an accident and police was outside. Making sure everyone knows where they going. It was just blessing for me. I stop next to officer and showed him the photo. At first he said - it just homeless person who dont have place to live but when I explained its little girl - he asked where she was and told me he knows the place and they will go and see what she is doing there.
I hope today this girl is home or some other place but not on street.
Things happening around us all the time. We too busy to notice. But I do hope the fact that I noticed her today will give her warm bed and food. That she will be all right and she will have great life.

That looks so yummy!

Hello, hello -

Helen food looks amazing. Thank god I just eat, other way I would be hungry now

Yesterday was busy and I was too tired to put anything down here.
Plus I haven't got back on plan 100%. I had some mug shots and sw yesterday. Coffee and
Crisp bread with cheese for breakfast. Fresh salas. Bites from here and there. No idea how many syns I had …

Have only photo of my breakfast. Cottage cheese. Fry egg. Fry veggies and crisp- bread with cheese. Mayo. Coffee - 4 syns.
And add the sw that I had at work - another 12 syn for bread
9 syn for cheese
9 syn for pepperoni

And tasting ..... Oh well its done now and I cant take time back.

Today is another day and I will try to do my best. Again. Good thing is I have 3 days left before holiday. 2 weeks away will help me to get back. Not being in food all the time and able to rest and work out will give me what I need. I cant wait.

Breakfast today
Salad with cottage cheese. Crisp bread , soft cheese ( he) coffee 1 syn


Lunch
Fresh salad , cous cous, cottage cheese, coffee 1 syn, syn free yogurt.



Honest under the cous cous is fresh salad , lol
Have myself something to control my sweet and sugar need


Dont know how many syns are they but its 155 g - lets say 160 g. 20 g are 1 syn. So it comes 8 syn for back. Its fine. With candy's and 2 syn I had for coffee I still have 5 syns to use and I have my mug shots ready for my dinner.

Wanted to join gym again today but guess what made me stop ? I have nothing to wear. Honest. I stop going 2 months ago. And since then I have lost more weight and all my pants are too big they were big before but now they falling down and I feel so uncomfortable in em. I have only 2 pair of trousers I can wear atm. One I go to work and other pair I work in.
Did short work out at home. Plank wall sit and squats.
Will need to shop before I can go to gym but its money I did not plan to spend
I know I could get leggings for 4-5£ but I want good ones. I dont need something that are see through or what will break in two weeks. As my legs rub together I have seen plenty of pants that wont survive more then month.
I need good quality training pants. Will go shopping this weekend.

Sad thing is my hubby was offered a job - well I asked my boss if he needs KP and offered my hubby for that place and now they did offer him the job but we had to say no /cry
Job center sent my hubby for security guy training but it takes 3 weeks and he cant work those 3 weeks. Plus my work- place wanted to be sure that before jan next year he wont leave. But we cant promise it. So we back to day one. Im so stressed about it. In tired and tired. We can survive on my salary but its so tight. ...

Another thing - I sent email to agent who got me trial day at french bistro I told you about. Its been almost 3 weeks now and I havent heard a word. So I said no. And as they did not bother to let me know I asking them to pay for my day there. Im upset about the way they act tbh. The agent told me I will start at 10 am Then I will have 2 hour break and then dinnertime. I did not take any food with me as we wanted to meet with my hubby in city and eat something together. He walked to city (4 miles), waited for me but I never got a break. I was working 11 hour without break or moment to sit down. Without food. They did not offer me food. The staff who come in and ask for food got it. The chef made himself a burger. Eating it standing next to my but not offering me a food while he knew he wont let me to go on break. Law says there is no free work. Even 1 day trial should be paid for. So that what I ask now. Not to mention that after 6 hours of work you have right for 20 min break.
That all I write down to my agent with my bank account nr and they better pay for my work. I have nothing to lose. But I dont let to use me. Im not a trash. If they think they can make me work for 11 hours strict and then just not to let me know if I got the job or not and not to show me any respect of being honest with me and not to pay me on top of all that - they better think again.
I may not be the one to look for but I deserve to know. Not just left waiting.

Uh , sorry guys Im upset and I let my emotion get over me. That all together makes me slip from my road too. But I try to have good day today

Hope you all are well and happy
Smiles to all xxx

Thank you Timmi My agent called me and told that hes behind me 100% and he will never deal that company ever again. Ofc he cant help me with getting my pay but he did send my email to them and suggested to find someone to help me if they wont pay me. He also said that for week hes been trying to get in-touch but they wont call back and that they haven't offer job to anyone and not sure they ever will. But he was glad that I was honest and said how things are and asked will I want him to try and find me something else. But I wont until next year at least. Dont want to let people down here too.
