Let go

 Let live

Let heal

Come to the light

Keep staring at the light.  Keeping positive, surround yourself with positive thoughts and let go. Relax and let heal.

Asian art

 I love these Asian paintings. I took these photos at a friend's house, just love Asian themes and paintings. Seems exotic, at least in the US, that is.

B&J's Homemade Creations!!!!

These homemade creations started  with the idea of being more natural. I have been having itchy skin from the cold weather, so I thought why not try making my own lotion using more natural herb and plant derivatives. I use self-extracted coconut oil from scratch, that's right, I extract my own coconut oil. I add humectant or stuff that keeps the moisture in the skin like glycerin, aloe vera and vitamin E.

I am giving out free samples for you all to try. I just needed feedback and if you like it I can make more and customize it to your liking. Right now, I am giving out homemade liquid soap made with oatmeal and almond, and another with pure glycerin liquid soap. You can contact me on facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/Everydayinalife? or search for "Everyday Creativity" on facebook. Or simply leave me a message on my comment box.

Aside from liquid soaps, I am making oil and vinegar infusions with herbs, spices and peppers. I will make individual catalogue for each of the product soon.But you can also order in sets. Which  I encourage to be done ahead of time since making it by hand requires time, art, precision and curing time.If you are interested let me know.

May you all be abundantly blessed for the coming new year!!! 

The majestic mountains!

 Cornfields as wide the grass grows....and blue skies as wide as your sight goes......

Don't go Banana!!!

Banana Blossom Fritters.....

 You would need some plastic gloves  to protect your hands from the blossom sap, it stains your hands and fingernails. Peel the outer layer of the blossoms and pull out the blossoms. Pinch and pull the tips and pull out the pin looking stuff out because they are hard. Do the blossom layers until you reach the soft blossoms. Once you reach the soft parts. You are able to tell the softness by pinching it with your fingers. You will need two cloves of garlic, onions, bell peppers and green onions.

 Of course salt and pepper. I also sprinkle it with chicken bullion, the powder one to boost the taste.

 Once blossoms and the soft heart are out, dice them and sprinkle salt and leave it for five minutes.

 After five minutes, wash and squeeze the salt and water off the blossoms. Saute onions and garlic. I also added shallots and bell pepper. Season with salt and pepper. Let it cool.

 After it cools of, add 1/3 cup of all purpose flour or corn starch and egg. Mix all the ingredients in. Heat some oil in a pan. Make sure it is hot so the fritter batter won't stick. Flatten it on the pan and add three or four batches at a time until golden brown.You can serve it as finger food or with rice and stuff.
