Delicious Power Breakfast

Fortified  French Toasts I don't know anyone who doesn't like having a good crispy french toast! It has been raining constantly for 3 days now and you can feel the chill in the air. So I didn't have to think too much about what to make for breakfast today. French Toast! But I wanted to add a little something to them. To sort of fortify them. I thought of using what was available in the kitchen. And this is the end result! I kept in my mind everyone in the family. Sesame seed french toast for my dad who is in his mid 50s and is hypertensive and has a family history of heart diseases because sesame seeds are known to reduce cholesterol and prevent high blood pressure, are good for bone and respiratory health, among many other benefits. Raisins embedded french toasts for my husband because he loves raisins! In case you do not know how to make french toasts (don't tell me) then the simplest way is to remember this formula; 1 egg, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp milk and 1 t...

Rose nail art tutorial!

Image
Some days back I tried the lovely rose pedi. Here is what it looked it and how to do it All you need is the nail colours you want to make the roses with, a white nail colour and a common pin. Put 2 dots of the white nail paint on your nail, adjacent to each other, as shown below. Put 2 drops of the coloured polish below and above the space between the 2 white dots, as shown below Then with the help of the common pin head, mix the four polish dots in a circular motion Use a green nail polish pen to draw little lines demarcating the flowers, to make leaves and you are done!

Why we are not ready to give up skinny jeans

Image
There is a rumor circulating that (God forbid) skinny jeans are going to be Out. Obsolete. Done with! Something (probably the love of comfortable fashion) started probing me to defend this beloved fashion trend! So here are a few reasons, according to me, that skinny jeans rock and should not be written off just yet. 1. Skinny Jeans compliment every body type! It doesn't matter if you are skinny, voluptous, curvy or heavy, skinny jeans suit you well.  2. You can flaunt all kinds of shoes with skinny jeans You can wear flats, wedges, ankle booties, thigh high boots, heels...almost anything with skinny jeans!  3. It's one of the favourite fashion trends of the celebs! I don't think there is any celebrity, other than Dita Von Teese, who has not stepped out in a pair of skinny jeans. 4. You can pair your skinny jeans with almost any type of clothing article and still look chic! Whether it be a casual T-shirt, an office friendl...

It's Oh-my-God Delicious!

Kate Moss once said,"Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels." Well, I guess she never had a Mushroom Swiss Angus from Hardees!

The Angelina Jolie Wedding Dress!

Image
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt tied the long awaited knot. The whole world waited to finaly get to see the most anticipated part of the Big day; the bride's wedding gown! It came to me as an utterly pleasant surprise to see that adorable wedding dress! Yes, adorable. not the kind of word you would expect to be associated with Angelina's wardrobe, but she catches you by surprise yet again!   People and Hello magazines were the ones to publish the photos of the Jolie-Pitt Family on the wedding day at the family's estate in France, Chateau Miraval.  Angelina's wedding gown was designed by Donatella Versace. The couture dress had ruffled bodice and spaghetti straps. But the real highlight was the train and the veil!  The train and veil were filled with the drawings made by the Jolie-Pitt kids! These drawings were embroidered on the dress by Luigi Massi, a family friend of Jolie's and a master tailor and designer at Atelier Versace. Brad Pitt wore a suit fro...
