An avocado 2 times a week, keep the doctors away. "An apple a day" quote is so 1923 (Read: So yesterday) You know there are certain times when you are just too lazy to fix a whole meal. Okay fine, I meant me. It usually happens when I have to fix lunch for myself. I don’t mind cooking for…

"Orange Julius is a chain of fruit drink beverage stores that has been in the business since the late 1920s.” Thank you Wikipedia for improving my general knowledge almost every single day!

I love soups especially for dinner. Cream of Mushroom Soup has to be one of my favorite. Have you heard of the Jewish woman who had two chickens?

Blueberry Cheesecake Squares

September 19, 2014

These Blueberry Cheesecake Squares start with a crumbly graham cracker crust, followed by a delicious cream cheese layer with sweet and juicy blueberries peeping through that. Usually it ends right there but not in this case as this decadent dessert later on finishes with a crumbly streusel topping.

Don’t judge a book by its cover people. The pictures in this post aren't very pretty, but how many times have our mamma's taught us that it is more important to be beautiful on the inside, than the outside? The wise Paulo Coelho once said, “We can never judge the lives of others, because every person knows only their own pain and renunciation”. True…
