We all try to eat healthy as often as possible . and if you're Calum Best , you just enjoy the food and behind the back of the person who cooked it ( Nadia ) you say ,oh that heavy food is no good , I want to eat healthy light food with no butter etc , etc ..Yes he's a jerk !! Just say it to the person's face and cook your own, damn healthy food .
But just to remind everyone , some butter and fat in your food is good for you and your brain . You need fat for your brain to be healthy and active ! It's the trans fat ,junk food so often which replaces a good home cooked meal which is bad for you ! Snacks between meals , you know what I'm talking about .. the packets of crisps , the cookies , the Chips , and chocolates and any amount of junk you shovel down your mouth . So Nadia's food is okay in my opinion .
So to get back to a great Meal choice for me and my kids is a Fish Curry with rice !! Yum def. a recipe to try , and I'm sharing the one I use , every week , with you all !
Fish Curry .
400 grms boneless pieces of fish
1 and a half cup of coriander leaves chopped up
2/3 tomatoes
1 onion , chopped up
8 cloves of garlic
5 green chilies
2 teaspoons of methi seeds ( fenugreek )
2 teaspoons of coriander powder
1 teaspoon of turmeric powder
Salt
100 grms of oil
Marinate the fish in salt and turmeric powder for 15 mins or a little bit more
Shallow fry the fish and keep it aside
Blend the coriander leaves garlic and chilies together
Heat the oil ,fry your onions , then put in your paste and fry for a couple of minutes till the oil separates
Add the tomatoes , methi seeds and the powdered masalas and fry for about 5/6 minutes
Add 2 cups of water and let the gravy bubble away till it comes to a boil
Then add the fish pieces and let it simmer for about 7 minutes .
Serve the curry hot , it's ready to eat .
You could add a squeeze of lemon for extra zest !!
Happy cooking !! And whatever you do , just keep smiling :)

The Goodness of Face Masks , Make your Own . Stay Young and Glowing :)
It's mid-week and a very good pick me up to brighten your face and keep a glowing complexion , is a face mask ! If you are like me , getting older ,lol ..or just in denial about your age , better start using one .
Actually the earlier you develop a good skin care routine , the better it is for keeping wrinkles at bay and leaving everyone guessing your age ;)
I have just used the most awesome face mask , from H&M's the " Coconut Water " moisture mask , with coconut and shea butter . It cleanses and moisturises the skin . Leaving me feeling fresh faced and smooth ,with such soft skin , lush :)
So , if it's a little too expensive to buy a face mask , every week for yourself to use . There are simple ways to make your own mask at home . It is just as good , and leaves your skin refreshed .
Make a mask with tomatoes , this is really good because tomatoes contain lycopene , slowing down the process of aging skin .
Put a spoonful of granulated sugar on a plate .
Coat one side of a 1/4 inch slice of tomato in sugar
Rub it on all over your face and leave it , for 10 to 15 minutes ,
before rinsing it off .
Make a mask with strawberries . The strawberries contains alpha-hydroxy acid which sloughs off dead skin cells , and salicylic acid that gets rid of excessive oil , that cause break-outs .
Cut one large strawberry in half ,
Rub it all over the face and leave for 5 minutes before washing it off .
Make a peach and oatmeal face mask . As with strawberries peaches contain alpha hydroxy and the oatmeal softens and soothes dry skin .
Mash a ripe peach with a tablespoon of oatmeal and a tablespoon of honey .
Apply for ten minutes and rinse off .
Make a Banana face mask .
Mash a ripe banana with two tablespoons of yogurt .
Apply for 15 minutes and then rinse off .
Make a cucumber face mask . This is my favourite . Cucumber has cooling properties , that reduce redness , puffiness and inflammation . This is why cucumbers are recommended , to put over your eyes to tone down any signs of bags .
In a blender add half a cucumber and a tablespoon and a half of yogurt . Blend it well . Put on your face for
20 minutes , then rinse off . It's excellent !
I hope you try out these simple fruit /veg masks ,which you are bound to have at home in your kitchen .
Enjoy the natural goodness of these masks and get glowing skin !
Keep smiling , do share and have an awesome day .

50 Shades , Is It the Dumbest Book ??
Today I had a wonderful day out , with friends which I was eagerly anticipating . Yes I was very tired , never slept long last night ,had a journey to make , but it was a wonderful day and to say the least I am looking forward to hitting the sack tonight , as early as possible .
While I was out , I couldn't help but notice , movie posters all around . Everyone is in blind anticipation over the much awaited ,over hyped " 50 Shades of Grey " , the movie , due out on the 13 th of February , I'll bet every Valentine over that weekend , will fill the movie halls , and make it a blockbuster of the year . Now I'm not judging what turns you on , and your bedroom antics , but this poorly written piece of Literature , full of the dumbest things and the most disturbing relationship between Ana Steele and Christian Grey . Which in my opinion is flat out abusive .
It is the creepiest relationship and frankly that an adult woman Ana , 1. doesn't have an email address in these modern times ?? Questionable !! I can understand if you don't have a computer or a laptop , you might use , the one at college or a Smartphone , but a 21 year old , not have an email address ? Seriously no one graduates or even enters College without an email address . If you don't have one , your college will give you one . And if you don't have one , you are either Amish , elderly or you don't exist
2. Ana Steele has no self esteem : Ana goes beyond basic into 'remedial ' territory . She should have a modicum of self respect for herself , if only for being a living breathing human being . Instead she spends her time wondering if she's good enough for this man , who compares her to his "crackwhore "Mum and controls her every move , hhmm very empowering !!
3. Ana Steele has never had an orgasm : Let's be clear , this has nothing to do with being a virgin . Everyone knows you don't need a man to have an orgasm !
4. Christian Grey wanted to take advantage of a drunk Ana : When Ana drunk dials Christian Grey , he turns up at the bar ,is a jerk to her mate . Scolds her for acting like a young 20 something ..then tells her he wants to have sex with her , while she's too wasted to give consent .Yeah nothing sketchy about that ( if you're a rapist )
5. Christian Grey is basically a stalker . He turns up at her work ,even though there are plenty of hardware stores he can access at any time . He continues popping up all the time , right through the book , even though she insists he leave her alone . That's not romantic , that's psychotic !
6 . Ana doesn't have a lawyer to look over the contract : basically she didn't have a second set of eyes reading through the print , she went in blind and with a real handicap . Also to reiterate , she's a college graduate without an email address .I'm willing to bet she didn't understand all of the stipulations and risks involved with this .
7. Ana Loves all of Christian's super -creepy gifts : Sure there's nothing creepy , about a Blackberry ,or a laptop but if someone is giving it to you , with the sole purpose of controlling , tracking and manipulating you ( showing up at your house if you don't text him back fast enough ).. very dumb !
8. Christian tries controlling Ana's diet : Remember when he tells her she needs to eat 3 meals a day . Because there's no other way for her to find information ,other than from his mouth .. and when he makes her order Steak at the restaurant . first of all he shouldn't have to force her to eat Steak , Steak is fu*king wonderful .
9. It's remarkable that someone as basic and useless as Ana is able to find a job and keep it ,at a publishing house , a growing sign of her independence and confidence . What does Christian do , he buys the Company and becomes her Boss without her knowledge . Hot .. so not !!
10 . Christian arrives uninvited at Ana's Mum's place : No normal man wants to spend extra time at his mother-in-law's place . Yeah not even your Mum , no matter how great she is !!
11 . When taken correctly birth control pills work : Ana had a blackberry ,she could have set an alarm for it , I'm not buying the whole pregnancy thing .
12 . Seriously no one ever says "jeez "so much . Even toddlers have a more sophisticated vocabulary .
13. Ana's brain literally does not function properly : Early in the book when Christian first visits Ana at Clayton's she muse's " from a very tiny , under-used part of my brain - probably located at the base of my medulla oblongata where my subconscious dwells - comes the thought , he's here to see you !" That is not what your medulla oblongata does . Your medulla oblongata handles boring stuff like breathing controlling body temperature regulation and your heartbeat . Your "subconscious "doesn't " dwell " there , and if it does , well, then it explains , why you all think this 50 Shades is quality writing .
So when you decide to order or not , advance tickets , to 50 Shades , remember why it is the Dumbest , most disturbing book written . And the most un-settling thing is the relationship with Ana and herself or her brain atleast ,lol ..
Hope you enjoyed reading this , have a wonderful day and keep smiling .

Cherished Memories !!
Happy Sunday !!!
I hope you all had a peaceful , restful day with time for reflection and meditation . I had an awesome day , combined with lots of Soul Calibur with my little girl ! She's always Lizardman and I'm Talim or Ivy ! Yes I did manage to get some keep-fit ,kick-arse exercise and rounded it off with some meditation !
Today I focused on how far life has brought me , how happy and fulfilled I am after a very long time . I worked on my goals , focused my energies on the things I wanted for myself and my children and I feel I have achieved more than I could have imagined .
I also went through , alot of poems I had written a couple of years ago and among them , I found this one , I wrote for my Mum Joan , on the day of her 4 th death anniversary in August 2012 . I will put it here for you all to read and enjoy .
Mum -- Joan
The world goes around , the days pass by .
Gentle rivers flow , a new flower grows
New life's born , someone's life is shut down
The years pass by , memories live on .
Four years today ,passed by in a flash
My dearest Mum was no more , Gone !
It happened over -night
so quick you had to go.
Miss you Mum , my words can't express , the loss I feel , has to be surpressed !
No one I could talk to , like I did Mum !
Who comforted and spoke , for hours on end , no matter how long ,you never did mind .
You watch over me , I know you still do ,
My dear loving Mum , I know Heaven has you .
An Angel with wings , there's no one like you
Your sweet gentle face , always brings me a smile .
When I look down I see , my hands look like yours ,remarkable for me .
I never did get , the older I'd be
I'd see my reflection and swear it could be ,
glimpses of you , in every part of me .
You never really left me , I find comfort in you .
In every rain drop that falls , is a kiss from you .
My sweet loving Mum , I want to be ,
reminded of you , in the birds that I see .
Your free gentle spirit and outspoken mind .
I Love YOU so much , O Mother of MINE
We all cherish wonderful memories of our Mum 's and no matter how many years pass by we still think about the woman , who carried us around in her arms , hugged us kissed us wiped away our tears , fed us our meals and above all , put us first , beyond her own needs . that wonderful creature , God has blessed each one of us with is called Mum in every country of this world in all languages . If you are fortunate to still have your Mum . Just call her and say I love you . The last thing I told my Mum , was I love you ,which always brings me comfort and joy . She had phoned to wish my youngest child ,Happy first birthday . And at the end I said Love you Mum will call soon , and six days later , before I could call , she passed away .
Have a lovely day and week ahead . Keep smiling , and love everybody . From me to you stay blessed .

Addictions !!
With Celebrity Big Brother on tv everyday , there is something interesting , to watch every night . Not that British telly is boring , lol ..it's the best telly in the world ,and that's on Freeview alone , people with paid channels obviously have so much to see , they are either spending all their time watching telly ,or their tv is just another wasted , added bill to their lives .
I'm never bored and I am very happy and contented . No I don't have a man in my life , but by no means is that a down factor . I am proud to be independent ,I have only my kids to take care off and I'm boss of myself . It's nice not to have a partner and walk on egg shells to please the person . You would have to be very , in love with him, to put up with another adult ,perhaps hogging the remote , farting and burping and of course wanting to be pleased in all senses of the word .
I don't know how many times , Katie Price has been talking about her partner Kieran on the show ( CBB ) and his antics , 15,000 times ?? I don't suppose , I have to say what he's done , cheated on her with her 2 best mates , and she's forgiven him and stuck with him through it all . She has said he's a sex addict ! Well because his behaviour has a name to it , do you think she's right in forgiving him ? Personally I see Katie as a strong woman , so I was very surprised she kept him , stuck with him and put up with it . I suggest she show him the door ! No doubt she has 2 kids with him and it's hard and everything else . But she has more kids with other men and has shown them the door and moved on .
Sex addiction , is probably a very hard ( sic ) habit to break , if Katie hopes it's going to change, it's a tall order . Unless he's on a leash , and is accounted for 24/7 which would not be easy for her , I don't believe it's possible . He is young , good-looking and probably counts on these factors to have women falling all over him . Addiction in any field , once gripped is almost impossible to break out off . Katie has said it's a compulsion for him , he's an adrenalin sex addict , one of 3 types . One being addicted to porn and the last just liking sex . So he likes the whole thing of not getting caught , it's a rush ! At this point , Katie needs to be firm , but put him out of her life , Addicts like the whole sympathy card, it enables them to justify the wrong . He should be put in a treatment programme , away for a year with no temptation and see if he can hack it . The rest of his life , will always be a step at a time .
Getting Addicted is very easy in the west , people need something to attach themselves too , for most people it's their mobile phones , Facebook , Twitter ,Social Media . Some people it's Drinking , Smoking others it's Gambling , which is advertised on such a vast scale , it's shocking ! Why would anyone encourage people to take this up , it's a rotten evil . How easy is it to lose money and not even feel a bit tipsy . Atleast if you drink 2 beers you are feeling it ,in your head ! I have been reading articles and I was shocked to read some of the stories of people losing money . How could anyone lose money ? I am so conscious of money . Every thing about my life is being good with money and making good wise choices . And I want more people to be more aware . How do Governments decide and say , okay smoking is bad , but here are all these options to go waste your money . When money is the most important thing in our lives . Without money you are nothing ,. People would not have anytime for you , and definitely would not want to know you exist . Online Casinos should not be allowed, to advertise on telly , or magazines etc . It is not a fun thing to do . The less people who know about it , the better . As it is ,with less money in the general populations pocket , the country is headed for disaster . There are more food banks in this country , in the last few years , than there ever has been before ... Something is going terribly wrong somewhere !!
The message of this blog ,don't start on something which is going to be difficult to break . Stick with reading , watching movies , telly , cooking , travelling , music and most of all talking to each other . Put down the phone and have a conversation again . Even going for walks is good for the mind , and exercise for the body .
Whatever you are doing , don't stop if it's making you happy , keep smiling .
Hope you enjoyed reading this and have a blessed Sunday .
Peace & Love

Is It So Bad ?? The Hands Of The Clock ...
Tick , Tock , Tick , Tock .. The Doomsday Clock has been moved , 2 minutes forward , and now at 11.57 pm , it is within 3 minutes to Midnight , which signify's a Global Catastrophe . The Atomic Scientists decided to move the Clock hands forward , because this is the closest time , we have ever been to a disaster in decades . The last time the clock was this close it was in 1984 .
The Physicists set up the Doomsday clock in 1947 , after the atomic bombs hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War 2 . The Clock was created to convey threats to humanity and the planet .The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists ( BAS ) said the threat of Climate Change and Nuclear War , posed a very serious threat to modern society .
BAS want to see action taken to cap greenhouse gases to 2 C above pre-industrial levels , and reduce spending on nuclear weapons . They definitely don't think it's too late , but the "window for action is rapidly closing " The world needs to awaken from it's lethargy . Moving the clock hand forward , inspires changes , to help push the process along .
Since this clock was set up , the hand has been moved 18 times , and each move represents how the scientists , view the world's chances of survival in the face of these threats .
The last time it was moved was in January 2012 to five minutes to midnight , BAS believed the world had entered the second nuclear age .
Now Climate Change poses a severe threat , Food shortages are going to get worse . Crop yields have decreased in the last 40 years . Violent conflict may be triggered as a result .Fights over resources like water and energy , hunger and extreme weather will all go into the mix to de-stabilise the world . Gap between the rich and poor will widen , poor people are going to bear , the unfair burden of climate change . Everything is going to make it harder for people to fight their way out of poverty .
Recent attacks in France , could be one of the reasons for moving the clock"s minute hand forward .
In the word's of Chicken Little " The Sky Is Falling ! "
As I say a little prayer ,and hope God looks down favorably on us , I hope each one of you join me with your own . Keep smiling and things will improve , if governments do something positive , and forget about increasing their own wages .

The Physicists set up the Doomsday clock in 1947 , after the atomic bombs hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War 2 . The Clock was created to convey threats to humanity and the planet .The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists ( BAS ) said the threat of Climate Change and Nuclear War , posed a very serious threat to modern society .
BAS want to see action taken to cap greenhouse gases to 2 C above pre-industrial levels , and reduce spending on nuclear weapons . They definitely don't think it's too late , but the "window for action is rapidly closing " The world needs to awaken from it's lethargy . Moving the clock hand forward , inspires changes , to help push the process along .
Since this clock was set up , the hand has been moved 18 times , and each move represents how the scientists , view the world's chances of survival in the face of these threats .
The last time it was moved was in January 2012 to five minutes to midnight , BAS believed the world had entered the second nuclear age .

Did this Blog Go In Another Direction , I think I Was Trying to Get a Fish Recipe Out , LOL !!
If there is one thing I love , it's my food and I enjoy cooking a healthy ,nutritious dinner for my kids and myself , and that is everyday ! I am not your one day mum , who suddenly wants to cook , and be healthy . I seldom buy takeaways , although I know it would be a nice break for me , and the kids ,would like it but No , if you have to work , with a budget , it's not possible . Takeaways can be pricey and you can get a much better home cooked meal , done with fresh ingredients cooked by my own hands . So I enjoy cooking and it's never a chore , the kids love my food ,and if I say so myself , I am a pretty darn good cook !
Nothing is better than having a lovely home made , spicy curry , with white rice or yellow rice , which I love !!
I make it a habit of giving the kids fish twice a week , not only is it healthy , but fish is good for the brains and I want my children to be as clever as they can get . They are growing up in a dog eat dog world , everybody wants to be here in England , jobs are notoriously hard to come by , As a mother I constantly worry , will they ever , find employment here , as grown adults ? Not only is the age of pension being raised , forgetting there will be a younger generation out there to employ and if all old people , have to work till 70 , what the hell is going to happen to a fit and able younger generation ??
The whole future of this world is beginning to scare the living daylights out of me !! I'm sure , I'm not the only person to be concerned with whats happening . It's mainly the population growing so rapidly , and employment suffering . does anyone even think about wages and making sure it gets doubled !!! People can barely survive on what we get !!Wages seem to be forgotten ,it's the last thing on the governments mind . Making sure the health of everyone is top priority , everyone is going mental , the younger generation need to grow up , not surrounded by the evils of cigarette smoke . So cigarettes soon will be in plain packaging , with God awful images on it , to scare the population into stopping .. but did anyone think why people take up smoking , in the first place ?? No we obviously are not happy , on so many different levels , somehow smoking gives a soothing , restful ease to a worried overworked , stressful situation . Ever heard of the "cigarette break "all people with stress in their life , reach for a cigarette for some peace and thoughtfulness , while blowing clouds of smoke into the already polluted atmosphere ! No I'd rather not have a cigarette , but lots of money , would make me want , to be around forever , and fight all the diseases , and give up smoking and have a holiday every year and not have another worry in hell , and afford all the little luxurious , I have forgotten existed !
Okay if only I was a Celebrity , I would get paid a hefty sum and get to go into the big brother house and be dull and boring , and if you have balls and go be obnoxious and entertaining , it's not good , Yes I am #teamPerez
Okay I want to be a mystery shopper ,and yes I want to write reviews about places !! Contact me :) I shall review your place for a free meal , talk about your shop for free products !! If you want honesty , I shall give it !!
I shall end here .It was not actually the subject , what I was aiming to write about , but this will do nicely . Yes I got sidetracked , don't we all in life ? Yes I love my life , love my kids to the ends of the earth ,but two times my income will do very nicely , rich men also , contact me ;) No I'm joking .. I have a crush on a certain someone and actually no one else will do . No he lives a million miles away in the USA ,and he probably doesn't even know I exist but alas I can dream , lol ...
Hope you enjoyed reading this . Have a great day ahead and stay blessed . From me to you , keep smiling ..
