feeling..

a bit sluggish, out of it, ah its a manic monday..

feeling nauseated by the things in life. I would like to take it out on a shopping spree. But even that won't help me..3 hrs of sleep. Oh my, Thank you stress I loathe you!

lentils, i think so!

Im always up for trying recipes with the condition that its semi easy and fast. I've loosen up to that idea. I found this recipe couple of weeks ago. It was lentils, what did i know about lentils? That it was protein and related to the bean family. Well i decided to call a good friend of mine, Brandy whos an acute care dietician. When i spoke to her about my findings and curiosity of about this little pellete looking thing, i must admit i was super excited! Long story short, its very healthy. Its protein and very rich in fiber. So with that said... I introduce you to my first vegan entree..

1. take 1 cup of lentils boil them in vegetable broth for 25 mins. Add some salt

2.Chop 3 stalk celery,3 stalk green onions, half of a yellow onion,tomatoes(were a substitute for julienne carrots)

3.3 tbsp of flaxeed and half a cup of water. Mix it and set aside (this will be like the glue that will hold everything together)

4.lentils will absorbe the liquid, take it out and put in a large bowl, saute all of the ingredients in number 2 as well as put some garlic cloves in it. Add pepper

5.After 6 mins, add some almonds. (once again, almonds is a substitute for walnuts)

6.Add the veggies in the bowl of lentils,mix well. Add in a cup of panko bread crumbs, than take the flax seed mix and add it in. Mix it well.

.take a plexy glass or any baking dish, spray a little pam. Put in the lentil mix and baked at 350 for 40 mins.

7.VIOLA,DUNZO and yummy!

*** when you put the mix in the baking dish. In a separate bowl,take 2 tbs of ketchup,1 tbsp of maple syrup,and 1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar. Mix well and spread over the lentils..Than bake it!

sunday rants

like nails scratching a chalkboard is how annoyed i am.

Every little thing seems to be working my nerves today, im starting to think theres something wrong with me. Superbitch mode on full speed.  Im pretty sure its this rediculous August heat. Its been on full swing since June, ..Dear Fall, please hurry..

Classes just resume, i feel pretty unaccomplished..26 and just now nearing the end of my associate. What the eff, which btw i have nearly 100 credit hrs under my belt. I should have my bachelors almost finish with that amount.  But noo, instead i chose the path of working while going to school, which still makes me broke.

Turks and Caicos

I told my friend katie i am in need of a vacation STAT away from the great plains..We were in talks of a cruise to the carribeans in the beginning of the new year

These two pictures shown are the destinations we were going to when we were planning our cruise. I still want it to happen. As of now its on hold. I'm on vacation lock down, but i don't think thats going to last very long. I need to have a mental cleanse to get some clarity and relaxation.

You just have to have a little....

Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen. -Hebrews 11:1


I look forward to sunday mass now. Today the sermon was over Faith, its ironic how the topics have correlated to my current issues.  I believe that he listens when you are asking for he's help.  I believe he will give you an answer. It may not be the answer you are looking for and it also may not be answered in a prompt manner.  You just have to have faith in all the things hes bringing you to face.  The power of prayer has gotten me through some pretty tough times.  I thank him for not ever leaving me behind.

Dean Martin & paradise avenue..

Im so done with this HEAT,ugh. All i want to do is stay in doors and clear away from anything that has to do with outdoors. Sticky,humid, and just plain miserable! Hello Fall, im ready for you and maybe Winter too..
