Hearty Tomato Soup!

Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening / Night, wherever you are in your day - I hope you're smiling.

A hearty rich tomato soup is my all time favorite to fill me up in this cold winter month! It's not just a tomato soup but with veg and a delicious smoked sausage. It's ideal to serve with toasted bread and have for your dinner!

Ingredients
3 spoons of sunflower oil
2 potatoes diced, small
1 courgette, sliced
2 carrots, sliced, small
Half a cup of peas
half an aubergine, sliced, small
A smoked sausage
2 cans of chopped tomatoes
A bunch of basil
Salt and pepper

Heat your oil up in a large soup pan. Fry your veg and potatoes in the oil for about 5 minutes. Cut your smoked sausage, and add it to the pan of veg. Now add the 2 cans of chopped tomatoes and 2 cans of water to the pan. Allow it to come to a boil then let it simmer for 15 min. Stirring it all the time. Add salt and pepper to taste half way through and a nice handful of chopped basil.

Now your soup is ready to serve!


Optional you could add a clove of chopped garlic with your veg in the pan. If you just love it in your diet. A very good and healthy choice.

Enjoy the soup, have an awesome day and keep smiling!

Love and Peace !

Sunday's Thoughts.. Stay Peaceful!

Happy Sunday!

A beautiful day if only it was the weather responding to the request. Twitter and the press all seemed to have gone mental because Donald Trump called for a three month ban , for people from 7 countries.With the outcry you would imagine it was a three year or longer ban. We all want to be vigilant and look after the ones we care about, so I don't see why everyone is up in arms , if they are vetted ,unless they have things to hide. They all seem to want to run to the US. I love the UK, what is wrong with Mo Farrah living and training in the UK. He has even been given a knighthood by the Queen, high time he shows his loyalty and starts living in the Uk and training here as well. But besides all that today was the Australian Open final and I guess the majority of the nation were watching , if Twitter is anything to go by. Roger Federer carved his name into history with a grueling match showing who's legend. It was his 18th Grand Slam victory and well deserved. It was actually the first time played with over 30's finalists in both the men and women's game. Remarkable. 2017 is definitely going to make an impact on the world for good. Before I end a thought and a prayer for the Grand National winning horse, Many Clouds who collapsed after winning his race yesterday and died a few minutes later .Such a hero running a grueling course and beating the champion Thislecrack , and he's  a machine .  I wonder did Many Clouds need to run that race against Thistlecrack who was at 4/9 odds an impossible horse to beat. Rest in Peace Many Clouds. At least you won and gave your life doing something you love. I doubt you would have kept up the pace if you didn't actually want to win. Heaven has a special place for you. Kisses and memories to treasure .

Have an awesome day, keep smiling and always think peaceful. Violence, hate, and abuse make you look bad. Peace & Love can move mountains. Stay blessed.



Love & Peace.

Consistency, Enlightenment, and Peace & Love

Happy Friday!

The Weekend is here and it's Chinese New Year! ''Gong Hei Fat Choy!'' That's Mandarin for Happy New Year. New Year's is always a time for new beginnings, so it's a time to celebrate. No, I'm not Chinese but I have some Chinese friends and I grew up not too far from China Town. I love Chinese food but not the fact that everything's made in China, lol. Maybe things will change soon and China won't dominate the market. It's the year of the rooster and that always has been a lucky year for me, so onwards and upwards!
Today Theresa May met President Trump, I was very surprised at how quick she made her way to see him especially as openly people dislike Trump here in the UK and the media is so un-supportive of him, yet Mrs. May keeps singing about a special relationship! Everyone seems to want Brexit, yet the excitement about sending an act to Eurovision today has me wondering, has the nation gone two-faced? The world seems to make me sad. I love consistent people.  We need to show ourselves to be strong and stick by our beliefs. It's what I admire in Trump. We should say what we believe and stick with it. The UK needs to stand together with Europe. The immigration that seems to trouble everyone is not the people from Europe but the ones coming from outside of Europe who then seem to bring their entire village and customs. If Donald Trump said parts of London are unsafe, let me say I'm afraid to go to London myself, it doesn't have the safest reputation. We need to learn to put our priorities in order and have a life plan. We should not aimlessly ramble through life. I wish more people would give meditation a go. Peacefully allowing yourself to think will bring you inner peace and inspiration. Buddha sat under the Bodhi tree (peepal tree) and attained enlightenment. Let's make it our goal this year.



Have an awesome day and keep smiling.

Love & Peace.

Ever Pondered - Smear Test or Not?

Happy Wednesday!

Donald Trump is making good on all his promises and that's what we want to see in politicians. The wall is coming up in a matter of months and having been to Tijuana, California, all I can say is it would be a good thing.
This week I was reading an article and happened to see more and more women are turning down the opportunity to have a smear test. The majority fear the discomfort and the rest are scared. I am one of the many who has never ever had a smear test even though my GP sent me many reminders. I phoned and turned it down. I am not one of the people who fears the discomfort and neither am I scared to get a result. I don't want to hear! So as a result, you would wonder where does that leave me and what are my reasons! First, I am all for everyone getting tested, well, if that's what they want. It's indeed a life saver and very reliable. When my daughter comes to the age for one, I would never discourage her. But here is what I think. I don't believe in all the modern science which is being funded 'till there is no tomorrow and everyone with the desire to live forever and somewhere in between people in higher places are forgetting that the population is growing older and unfortunately it is unable to provide for the elderly in society, no adequate funds are put away for elderly citizens, which is getting to be a real problem in our society.
So I feel if by some unfortunate circumstance I should get afflicted with anything, then perhaps it's the right time to go. If the question goes, but you have children, well this world isn't getting better and my children are not looking at a very rosy future with no problems in this world, and I hate the way things are. So sometimes I fear what is going to be in the fate of our young children, especially with technology in full blast. Will there be adequate jobs out there? What is going to be the future for the next generation? People are being forced to work 'till they're so old, they just about die at retirement. If not well before. How are the children going to get into jobs when old people keep hogging all the positions. Unless a lot of things change in the world, I will just be happy to live 'till the time naturally comes to go. So no smear tests for me, thank you very much.
If you do want to live very long and you have a wonderful life with lots of money and no worries, never hesitate to take the opportunity to have a smear test.



Have an awesome day and keep smiling!

Love & Peace.

Outfit Recommendation for The Weekend!

Happy Saturday!

The weekend started with minus temperatures and believe me -9 is freezing cold. Two race courses called off their cards. Taunton and Ascot and if you were disappointed, believe me - I was! Flat racing went ahead at Lingfield, ITV showed Haydock, they even kept the presenters toasty in an inside studio (long time coming!) Anyways, one of them sitting at the table was not very complimentary of Jack Kennedy. Young Jack is a very talented up and coming jump jockey. This week he made an amazing effort getting back in his saddle after almost falling off. I was so impressed, when other jockeys almost jump off if they are about to fall! But was that chap dissing him brushing him off like ,hmm.. He's too tall, he's not really going to make it. I didn't care for his tone. Jack is going places, and you heard it from me .
Here is a nice outfit recommendation, which I'm sure you will enjoy wearing! It's pretty in red. The store and online prices are listed below.


1. Red striped long sleeve top with cami dress / 26 pounds / Choies.com
2. Polka Dot Mesh Tights / 14 dollars / Urbanoutfitters.com
3. Chunky Infinite scarf / 38 dollars / Keds.com
4. Wine red lapel long knit coat / 37 pounds / Choies.com
5. Black Lace Chunky boots / 40 dollars 

You might just catch Bill Clinton's eye.. Did you see Hillary Clinton catch Bill undressing Ivanka with his eyes at the Inauguration? Savage Bill! 

Have an awesome day and keep smiling. 

Love & Peace.

4 Stylish Winter Jackets!

Happy Thursday!

Winter jackets! It's getting colder here in England and although temperatures are nothing like that of mainland Europe, it's still pretty chilly now. The style of jackets from the 50s and 60s is what I would have once upon a time called 'old fashioned'. But trends come and go, with a little modern twist and color it's so up to date. I could eat my words when I remember now, how I once told my mother those styles are so old fashioned knowing how much I loved 80s / 90s chic, lol  :)


1. Front pockets khaki coat / 25 dollars / Shein.com
2. Lapel ipper khaki jacket / 50 dollars / Romwe.com
3. Long sleeve pocket trench coat / 31 dollars / Zaful.com
4. Red long sleeve loose woolen coat / 50 dollars / Victoriaswing.com

All the prices and the online shops are listed. There, you can find these gorgeous styles and more. Happy browsing!

I just want to share with you guys an inspirational quote from John F. Kennedy which always inspires me everyday. "If not us, who? If not now, when?"

Let's make everyday matter, no matter how difficult. We will make it through!

Have a great day and keep smiling.

Love & Peace.

Tuesday's Thoughts - Mental Health Awareness!

Happy Tuesday!

The inauguration of Donald Trump draws closer, January 20th. It promises to be an exciting fun filled afternoon and I plan to be watching the whole event on my telly from 4 pm. Was Obama trying to make amends and hoping to do one good thing before his term closure. Today he commuted the sentence of Chelsea Manning. But she will only go free sometime in May. Theresa May laid out her plans for Brexit. It's not going to be an easy road ahead. For anyone and the country. I won't give any more of my views there because I hoped Europe would always stand together and not have England an isolated island.
Today was such an eventful day, besides all of the above, William, Harry, and Kate came out together for a charity event. Supporting mental health ''Heads Together.'' I 100% support mental health awareness. The more we talk about it, the easier it is for society to accept anxiety, depression, and suicidal tendencies exist. It is not an easy burden to carry and even though people say we are ready to hear you out, nobody is actually ready to hear anybody out , especially one with emotional weakness, anxiety, depression, and suicidal urges. It afflicts more than 50% of the population, but a lot of people put up a front for fear of being humiliated and told they were crazy and not be able to contribute towards society. In whatever particular interest they have. People in fear of being vulnerable, then become bullies, alcoholics, or have anger management issues or become out of control. We should have open minds and learn to listen without talking, judging, or trying to influence. You never know what you might learn. Give more support to your friends, relatives, and neighbors. Life is short, make it happy for everyone.



Have an awesome day and keep smiling.

Love & Peace.

Outfit Recommendation: Monday Style!

Hope your weekend was lovely.

This outfit for a Monday, when you want to look chic but comfy. Stripes are popular and a long calf length wrap around skirt is perfect to combine with a crop top jumper with long sleeves so you still get to have warm arms as the weather gets colder and mornings are so foggy.
Accessories can dress up the outfit and make it more classy. A couple of bracelets, a lot of rings on the fingers are ways to go.  A simple long gold- tone crystal body necklace adds a touch of old school glamour. On your feet casual white sneakers to keep  the theme young but it could always be paired with some sandals.
A white bag is smart looking. Makes a nice difference to just black and brown bags which I always notice, is what ladies / girls immediately feel safe with, and tend to use a lot! A list of the prices and where you can shop for this look is down below.



 1. Striped cropped loose knit jumper / 31 dollars / Blackfive.com
2. Wraparound skirt / 15 pounds / Hm.com
3. Gold-tone crystal body chain / 48 dollars / Macys.com
4. Rhinestone motif finger and midi / 13 pounds / Topshop.com
5. True Vans white authentic lo pro canvas / Shopakira.com
6. Quilted shoulder bag / 40 dollars / Yesstyle.com
7. Selina silver-tone bracelet set / 21 dollars / Guess.com

Have a good week and keep smiling.

Love & Peace.

Five of My Favourite Blushers!

Happy Friday!

The weekend has begun and not only is it a Friday, but it's Friday the 13th. No we are not superstitious about it. I love Friday the 13th. It also just happened to be a super lucky day for me .Won twice on scratch cards a 20 pound  Prize followed by 50 ,on a different scratch card, and as prizes flow by three's ,had a nice win on the horses! So cheers to 2017!
Now my favorite blushers. We all love color on our cheeks. It's winter and we don't want to look pale and dull. Blush, and a nice red lipstick is an awesome look. Blush does not have to be super pricy. A drugstore buy can be equally good as designer!

1. To achieve a peaches and cream complexion, Bourjois Cream Blusher is super creamy. The cream to powder formulation melts into the skin. My No. 1. It costs $16, available at all drug stores.

2. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Blends (sheer highlighting blush) is foolproof and costs around $13.

3. My third favorite is Milani Rose Powder Blush in Romantic rose. With this blusher you get value for money. It costs $8 and you don't need an explosion of color on your cheeks. Just a slight blush, to bring out sultry eyes!

4. Maybelline Fit Me Blush in Light Muave. It brings awesome color to your cheeks and won't fail to show you're brimming with good health! (even if you happen to be feeling the opposite!) It costs as little as $5.

5. I love the MUA range and MUA's Pixel Perfect Multi Blush is a winner. Costing only $3, I wouldn't pass on it! MUA's Luxe Whipped Velvet Blush is super easy to blend in and well worth the $3 as well!

Have fun and keep smiling!

Love & Peace.

Get Beautiful With Coconut Oil!

Happy Wednesday!

The cold winds of January and the minus temperatures of the night are hazardous enough, but a thought goes out to every homeless person even those staying with people and not having their roof to call a home. Those sleeping in cupboards with almost nothing to eat. God bless them all.

But coconut oil may be a solution to everyone with some money still in their wallets. The beauty benefits of coconut oil have been known for ages and used especially in Asia for donkey´s of years. I remember massaging coconut oil on my body long ago. Nowadays I have a nice body lotion made from coconut oil to keep my body smooth and soft. Coconut oil has a lot of beauty benefits. Read all their uses and make this winter coconut oil rich!

As a body moisturizer
A recent animal study found that when applied topically, virgin organic coconut oil for skin can speed up wound healing, and a human study found it to be effective in increasing hydration and reducing water loss in seriously dry skin. Sounds like a recipe for a really good lotion to us! It's a health-expert favorite, too. : "It smells delicious, is very affordable, and leaves skin feeling nourished and smooth."

To clean your face
Because coconut oil is naturally antibacterial, antifungal, moisturizing and, according to research, great for atopic dermatitis, many women swear by its use as a nighttime moisturizer for their face, too. Try the double-cleansing method: Simply rub the oil in circular motions all over your face and neck, giving yourself a gentle massage as you go. When you're done, wash off the residue with your favorite cleanser. (If you're adult-acne prone, avoid this technique unless you know your skin tolerates coconut oil.)



To add shine
Smooth a tiny amount of organic coconut oil onto your ends of your hair to add a little shine, or on flyaways if you have dark hair. Remember that a dab will do you: Any more and your hair might appear greasy.

In a luscious body scrub
Here's a little DIY beauty secret: That store-bought body scrub you save for special occasions? It's a waste of money. That's because you can make one yourself with ingredients you already have in your kitchen. . "I love to do this. It's wonderfully moisturizing, great for the skin, inexpensive, and blissfully absent of chemicals you can't pronounce!" To make your own, I suggest melting ½ c of coconut oil at very low heat. Pour it over 1 c of brown sugar or salt and stir well. If you have some on hand, add in five drops of your favorite essential oil or some pure vanilla extract for a scrub so fragrant you'll want to eat it.

For a little rubdown
Many store-bought massage oils have either coconut or jojoba oil as their base. Cut out the middleman and go straight to the bottle. It's slippery, skin-friendly, and coconut oil for skin moisturizes, too.

Have an awesome day and keep smiling!

Love and Peace.

Happy Monday!

La La Land swept the Golden Globes and proves this year is going to be better than the last! Who doesn't love a song and dance? So a musical winning multiple awards shows us we all want better.

I won't even mention Meryl Streep, she made me squirm.
Here are some gorgeous sweaters to keep you cosy, as the cold, cold days are shriveling us up! We need warmth.

Comfort Food - Irish Stew For Supper!

Happy Saturday,

If like me, you love nothing more than watching Saturday Racing, you must be missing Channel 4 hosting. Matt Chapman needs to calm down , and we all must start a Gofund page for ITV to get an indoor studio or the presenters are going to freeze their butts off soon! All looks like a very poor presentation , but happy to see Rishi Persad , if it was only for less than five minutes.
What actually was Noel Fehily doing in the last race at Sandown? I was very disappointed with his performance. He kept a tight rein on the French horse Discours Dun Roi ,and kept her back from the start. He never actually attempted to loosen the reign and give her a free run. I would seriously put an inquiry into that race. At least when Krugermac came second last you could see Jamie Moore doing everything to try and win. At one point Krugermac was running up front. A very good and reliable jockey is Jamie Moore!! Discours Dun Roi coming last , when all day the betting shops had it as the favorite to win , is a scam. Very disappointed. Although I have learnt the trick. They seldom allow a horse a hat trick and hold it back for 2 races and then boom , it wins again like magic. Luckily I'm too smart and only put Discours Dun Roi in a lucky 15, because I hoped I'd be wrong. But Sabrina is never wrong, lol!

Okay, so if the snow, icy winds, fog, and bitter cold is easing off, you must be as happy as me. With this cold I can't get motivated to venture outside! Some nice comfort food is all I crave. Here is my favorite recipe of an Irish stew which I love. Enjoy!

Irish Stew
Ingredients:
1 tbsp sunflower oil
200g smoked streaky bacon, preferably in one piece, skinned and cut into chunks
900g stewing lamb, cut into large chunks
5 medium onion, sliced
5 carrot, sliced into chunks
3 bay leaf
small bunch thyme
100g pearl barley
850ml lamb stock
6 medium potato, cut into chunks
small knob of butter
3 spring onion, finely sliced

Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3. Heat the oil in a flameproof casserole. Sizzle the bacon for 4 mins until crisp. Turn up the heat, then cook the lamb for 6 mins until brown. Remove the meats with a slotted spoon. Add the onions, carrots and herbs to the pan, then cook for about 5 mins until softened. Return the meat to the pan, stir in the pearl barley, pour over the stock, then bring to a simmer.
2. Sit the chunks of potato on top of the stew, cover, then braise in the oven, undisturbed, for about 1½ hrs until the potatoes are soft and the meat is tender. The stew can now be chilled and kept in the fridge for 2 days, then reheated in a low oven or on top of the stove. Remove from the oven, dot the potatoes with butter, scatter with the spring onions and serve scooped straight from the dish.


Have an awesome day and keep smiling!

Love & Peace.

Tips & Resolutions For the New Year 2017!

Happy Thursday!

 The New Year is well under-way. It's the 5th of January and by now you have probably started up a detox January, curbed your spending after splashing out in December. And made up a list of New Year resolutions! Among all the good things, January is bringing a new president to the white house. Definitely a sign that God wants things better in the world. With the way the democrats are behaving and not accepting their loss, is a disgrace. They should not be provoking Russia. Peacefulness and no war is all we want in this world - love and peace. Let us make it our number one priority on our New Year resolution chart!
 The next things on the list we should focus on is to always find time for the things that make us happy and feel alive.
 Third, is to always try to eat healthy ,  now we all want to live forever (not me). So be healthy without greed - i.e. eat pizza, but not more than a slice or two. Eat more colorful vegetables, add spices to your food. Cut out all fizzy drinks but never give up alcohol. A glass of wine or beer is good for your health, contrary to what people might think. Put a little cheese in your diet, it strengthens your bones. Likewise, if you have milk don't go for low-fat. Full fat is the healthy option. Put in the exercise. Everyday, go out for a walk or jog. Even if it means just window shopping in your city (walking around 3/4 hours) - do it!
 Save some money. Get a jar, put in all your coins. Anything from 20p to the pound. I read somewhere that this year everyone is attempting to do the five pound challenge. It just means each time you are handed a five pound note, don't use it. Put it away in a box and save it for a year without counting. Just surprise yourself at the end of the year! Give yourself a treat, life is short so don't brush yourself aside. A small treat or a big one if you can afford it. Go ahead and do it. Buy a nice perfume and use it everyday! Smell nice, put on lipstick, even if you are just going down to the shops.
 Always have time to listen to someone even if they are ranting. Allow yourself to be angry. It's good against stress and cry if you have to. If you feel really badly about someone, it's okay to cut them off. You are not God and it's okay to be human and slap down dickheads and arseholes!



Hope you enjoyed all my tips for a great beginning to the New Year, 2017!

Have fun and keep smiling.

Love & Peace.

5 Fashionable Boots!

Happy Tuesday!

Knee high boots and classic chunky ankle styles are the current trend for winter. Black and brown are the classic colors which combine well with all outfits. Stay clear of white shoes, although it might be fashionable in Essex, it's not any where else ;) Try to be versatile and put those heels on . I see so many people only wearing sneakers or flats which does nothing to lengthen the leg or make the legs look sexy. No we don't dress to please anyone, but dressing to appear smart, sexy and rich gives us extra self confidence and makes us more appealing and fun to get to know.

Dressing well does not end with a nice dress. NO. It goes down all the way to your shoes. Being smartly dressed is the key to looking like a well bred individual . No matter how much money you have if you wear sweat pants , jogging tops , t/shirts with no sleeves you will look like a bum and a destitute.

Here are 5 fashionable boots for the winter! 


1. Faux leather buckle strap ruched mid calf boots / 33 dollars / Lollicouture.com
2. black metal block heel ankle boots / 30 pounds / Newlook.com
3. Ankle-high chunky boots / 34 dollars / Amazon.com
4. Taupe Lace up combat boots / 30 dollars / Windsorsstore.com
5. Micheal Antonio Taupe Suede / 50 dollars / Heels.com

Have an awesome day and keep smiling.
