Thoughtful stories and everyday growth that bring calm, perspective, and inner brightness.
What is your favorite restaurant?
Believe me, I’m a lover of food or cuisine, but to pick just one favorite restaurant is a crime….😂
But I would say that Moxie’s Steakhouse and the Thairoom in Toronto are some favorites of mine right now.
Since I’m experimenting with homr cooking and trying new cultural dishes, so I can have a well-balanced palate.
Been loving Thai, Mexican and Indian dishes at the moment.
What’s your dream job?
I don’t say I would have a dream job. Because the typical job dream, when I was a kid, was like a pop singer and singing all over the world of like celebrities do. 😏
But i’m saying a job that I would love to have now would probably be something in the detective occupation or still an accountant but forensic.
Since I’m an accountant, I love helping out people with financials, but a new jnterest grew little bit with looking at new shows and TV and documentaries.
It made me really interested in observation and deduction, but I would say that the TV shows that made me excited would be Detective Conan and series Elementary.
Just learning about the character of Sherlock Holmes and how both main characters grew in their observation skills and looking at the unexpected and seeing through the truth of everything just got me so intrigued.
Especially when Sherlock was teaching Watson how to be more of a detective through books, observation, and experience.
What’s your favorite recipe?
When I started to learn more about cooking and getting into home-cooked meals.
This was the first meal I made by myself following a nice recipe online.
It took a while for me to cook it well because I overcooked it a couple of times until I got it good. So it’s a bit of an achievement for me as a transitioning into home-cooked meals.
Here’s the link if anyone wants to try. And there’s a YouTube that shows good instructions.
It’s really delicious. 😊👍🏾

What notable things happened today?
I started on a new routine from 4 weeks ago to change my lifestyle. It was hard at first with the change in food.
Why is food the hardest to change?
I think cause everyone has a special relationship with food, especially with moods.
But I noticed when I cut out the sugar slowly, the cravings came but stopped with a substitute.
Never knew I ate or drank things with a lot of sugar, but when I cut it out my mood became more calm which was notable.
Describe your dream chocolate bar.
I have always had a sweet tooth. My favorite flavor is chocolate 🍫 😋.
I have tasted different types throughout my childhood and even today. Between white, dark, mint, fruit, spicy chocolate. My all-time favorite will be Milk Chocolate.
Dream Chocolate Bar will be two options, but the flavor will be milk chocolate.
1. It would have the nice elements of a Cabury Chocolate Bar, but inside will be melted chocolate texture of Lint Lindor’s chocolate that will be smooth ever time you have it in your mouth.
2. It’s can be crunchy that has hazelnut and shaped like Rochers Chocolate, but have the chocolate coating of a Hersheys milk chocolate bar.
List your top 5 grocery store items.
1. Banana
2. Whole wheat bread
3. Eggs
4. Cranberry Juice
5. Water
These are the basic breakfast and lunch foods to get. Simple sandwich, scrambled eggs, and bread that I mostly use for my favorite breakfast of French toast with banana toppings and scrambled eggs kn the side.
Never tasted cranberry juice until I wanted to change my diet… best choice I made
They come in sales, which makes it easier in thishard time when prices keep on rising
Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail.
I would say when you starting to begin cooking home-cooked meals, you are gonna have alot of failures before you have something tasty.
One of the biggest failures would have to be with trying to make like either roasted vegetables, baked ziti, or lasagna because it was burnt or forgot to put an ingredient in there.
I lost faith at first, but I’m still keep pushing and trying because I always remember no ones perfect. It’s not to late to learn something new and look at many videos while reading recipes because people are different types of learners.
What are your favorite types of foods?
You know the saying, “Nothing is better than having a home cooked meal.”
Even though I am a guilty party of buying some frozen foods. Everyone can agree it’s saves time in the busy daily life.
However, it is more wholesome when you just enjoy a hot cooked meal at the end of the day to feel satisfied.
My favorite is grilled salmon or baked chicken with some roasted vegetables and rice or quinoa. 😋
What’s your go-to comfort food?
Usually, it would be a bit spicy but a very tasty snack of mine, plaintain chips. They are baked, crispy, and always delicious to eat. I am guilty of finishing a bag in 2 days. It’s usually my go to comfort food that I eat at any time if I feel a bit peckish.
A journey of grace, grit, and starting again.
