    If you want to have a more pronounced flavor of mushrooms, Black Chinese Mushrooms or Shitake mushrooms would be a great choice.

    • This is so yummy recipe. I wanna tell my sister to prepare this next week for it’s my nephew kids birthday. Thanks for sharing,so tasty.

    • In ancient Egypt mushrooms were reserved for royalty, and ancient Romans thought mushrooms conferred strength to warriors, according to the Oregon State University Extension Service. Of the 300 edible species, 10 are currently grown commercially. Use mushrooms to add distinct flavor and a range of nutritional and health benefits to some of your favorite dishes.

    • White button mushrooms, such as crimini, commonly found in grocery stores and salad bars, help remove excess estrogen from circulation, making them helpful for preventing breast cancer. A tissue culture study published in the November 2010 issue of the journal “Experimental Biology and Medicine” found that white button mushrooms, along with four other varieties of common and specialty mushrooms, significantly suppressed breast cancer cell growth and reproduction. However, further studies are needed to confirm these preliminary results.

    @Edidiong Joseph, They are terrorists so they do not want religion in their lives, in fact, they hate religion and killed many religious places and people.Those kidnapped  girls are made slaves and wives by those ISIS. They do not have love in their hearts so they never pity those victims they beheaded and raped.

    • Never pray for global crisis….its the most miserable thing that has ever happened to the existence of man kind.

    • A Global crises is not good at all, there’s already many states in united states that had been busting their tales to build the place up and get more jobs. The employment is crazy the world is changing in good and bad but its only going to continue growing bad over the good.

    • Crisis are inevitable in human affairs. It’s a natural phenomenon that has existed with man since creation and as such can not be curbed completely.
      It has reduced the world to an agonizing state, thereby making life difficult for people and governments.

      Global crises has been an issue of great concern globally as it disrupts the political, economic, social, environmental lives of man.
      And the effects of these crisis are enormous but then governments, individuals, orgs.etc., will keep strategizing, creating reforms in order to lighten up these problems and to help dealing with the future ones if not to prevent them but to reduce them.

    • @EdidiongJoseph, Ho? The world had started to suffer and face Global rises 7 or 8 years ago.That time the world was in extreme disaster. Mayne you know the biggest insurance umbrella of all the insurance Comanches in the world the AMERICAN INSURANCE GROUP OF COMPANIES(AIG) I knew AIG because I am also an insurance license broker.The year when many banks shut down, the reason for that was the global crises that affect the business world.

    • @Miranda Hunt, You are right , all great nations in the world are trying hard to save the global crises of the world all face. Gradually all that shake every in fear may be paved by hopes and chances are great for people also help the nation where they belong to restore back progress and development, thus everyone may enjoy life to the fullest again, That is why we have to be thankful to the world for it is technology that lets each nation rise again, and one help the technology introduces that helps the many is this, online jobs hehehe. That is why no matter what, we still strive to have extra income to fight back global crises.Let us thank to our technology and the investors.

    • @Anita, Thanks girl for you nice and appreciative comment to my blog. Every nation had rebuilt the causes of global crises that is within the area of its own concern, though a nation that is not superior must seek alliance to superior countries to avoid extreme hunger its people may experience. Those superior countries are also affected by global crises, but they know much how to make their country the greatest again compared to countries int he third world, can never stand alone. They need assistance from superior countries like United States. This time, there is a promise of sustainability of a country because of technology. Technology truly changes lives, so we are here now experiencing another extra income because of it.Thanks.

    • The feeling is bad seeing your ex with another woman, oh life, we have to accept the destiny bestowed by us, though that said destiny many not be the supposed destiny should we only be wise enough to choose the right man, the supposed life with joys to be with in our life ,It should be the right one so both could withstand hardships and trials without turning back to escape any crucial experiences. Love should always be the strongest weapon to conquer whatever will happen along the way.

    • Yes, can’t agree more, totally will feel bad when seeing the ex with another one. Anyway, we should move on no matter how’s and who betrayed who at first.
      Once left it behind, everything would be fine, and do remember never turning back..no point and will further harm each other.
      Love ourselves is the strongest weapon, for move on for better future. We deserve it, for sure!

    • Ceci Chow , Thank you for your nice thought on this post, yes true, we have to move on and leave the past behind until it rots to the wilderness of broken dreams.We have ourselves to take good care of for if we are sick of the past, it is hard to cure.Acceptance is the best cure of all the had happened in the past. Thank you so much .

    • Addendum : Let us be responsible for our actions in the net sites this time. Anyway, we already have some hints how to detect scam.Before a scam was not detected, there were so numerous victims. In fact, me too, encountered many scams on line. There were 6 foreigners wanting to scam me hahahaha, I told them you can never scam me, you die fist. At first they lured us and they seem real. If we do not know from others experience of scam, most probably, many would have been victimized by the thieves on line. There are so many of them this time especially i a dating site and other sites that assure everyone business genuine and how do we know they are not genuine? When they ask money like membership fee, free trial with a fee? Nonsense business then, that is only a mere fabrication of the fervid imagination of the scammers on line we have to get rid off.

    • Preparation appears to be interesting. Granola Bars it appears to be more costly though they are healthy and tasty.
      Preparing such dishes at home will be safer as most of them will be overloaded with sugar/Salt and if we cook them at home we can prepare them as per our required amounts of sugar and salts.
      But, what I want to do is avoiding essences. Purchasing Almond roasted one appears to somewhat lessen the burden. I do not know the temperature required to roast the pieces. So, I would like to purchase the roasted ones only.
      Cornflakes and Oates are also good for health. However, putting them in a mixie to make them into a fine paste is a good idea. Most of the times I soak them in Milk or any Chocolate for 10 minutes before I eat them.

      I want to try these Granola bars at home.

    • Is that a picture of the one you made? It looks so mouth watering that i am actually salivating just looking at it now.

      However, seeing the procedure and lots of ingredients deter me from trying it as I am not adept in using the oven at home because eversince it was bought many years ago , no one tried using the oven and even the rotisserie.

      I guess Ijust have to buy a granola bar when I passed by the supermarket tonight after our dismissal from work. Surely, it will not be as delicious s yours but I am sure it will satisfy my craving, elicited by this post and picture of yours. ha ha ha

    • Indeed technology made each and everyone be addicted to it. Most people now, can’t seem to live without internet even fr a day. It has become their bloodline, so much so that they have more time being on internet than conversing with their love ones.
      People should see to it that these social media , online earning site and other things done through te internet shouldn’t hinder the quality time each one shoud be having with ter family.

    • Good article. I can see how technology can be a blessing or a curse. We have a great tool that is available to us in many ways but wise use of it is the key. Another side of technology that I wanted to mention is the ability to work from home. Many companies are hiring people to do work at home. I, personally, work from home. It has it’s pros and cons. For a person to work at home, discipline is a strong factor because the comforts of home can distract anyone. Yes, Thank God for technology but count the cost in the long run. Thanks for sharing.

    • @Dina, yes true, there are so many addicts of technology through the access of gadgets like netbooks, cellular phones, computers, lap tops, plus those that access us like Twitter, Viber, Skype, Instagram, Facebook, Line and more that makes life interesting and promoting for we always feel happy seeing and connecting with our relatives, friends and the supposed friends abroad.There is no boring moment when we are in Facebook. We know what is happening to our loved ones who are working in other countries. Media sites are so useful and helpful others never experience because they still like the backward life and never aspire to learn .

    • @Caleb, Hi? It is a pleasure meeting you here and sharing your valuable time to share your very nice comment. I really appreciate it. Yes, very well said, technology helps many earn some at home through on line work at home.It is also true that our family members are not sometimes felt their presence because we focus on our work on line.Let us only spend some hours for our family is the first priority, Somehow, the need to earn extra is useful to us because there is always something we can turn to in time of need.Though the earning may not be big, but at least, it is considered a hard earned money worth to spend wisely too.

    • So many got sick of love and I am one among them.Right love is hard to find, yet love remains beautiful and even worth to die for only those stupid hehehe.Why? It is simply because many committed a suicide because of love. They cannot control their sorrows and loneliness caused by their lost love and dream. yes, it is not easy to feel the betrayal. It seeks like killing you instantly. You even want to kill just to have your rage find remedy to see the person who cheated you perished and never lie to you again. There are so many instances lover kills his love, that is why many agree , and I, too agree that : LOVE KILLS.

    • Love is the answer

    • Yes, true it is love itself to heal man’s misery. Love inspires one’s heart and it gives us reason to wake up for the next day.Love gives long tolerance , but when it is fed up, it will fly away forever and never come back. Love is the greatest feeling of all the feelings human has. There is no room for sadness when we are in love, but when love betrays, its impact almost kill the self and willing to fight for revenge,that is why love is labeled as killer to man hehehe.Those who like to kill themselves because of love are cowards. They should give themselves to love again though not so instantly but later in a year to distance from the broken dream and heart.

    • I agree with the author when she concludes we must find love back again and heal from every pain we shall have had in the past.

      Love is not bad at all, on the contrary, love is the best thing on Earth that is worth living for! Sometimes we get hurt, but not because of love itself, but because of our own choices and love has nothing to do with it. Love is there to guide and inspire, and unite the world in only one breathe and heart beat!

      Thanks for the blog Cely! That was wonderful!

    • @Manoel Fernández Neto ,Hi? Thank you so cu for your nice comment,very much appreciated. Yes, love is not at fault for man’s failure of love.It is destiny itself or choice itself for love is what we make it to happen. There are those serious in love , giving all their trust never thinking about life that may break the feeling and if not ready because f too much trust, then tears and pain will happen.It is man himself that makes love ugly or not.

    • At least I have this chance to voice out some experiences I meet every day in my life. there are so many times I meet people texting and driving, texting and reading, texting and eating, and texting and watching TV unmindful of the call of someone.In the classroom for example in the university were I teach. I keep of telling my students whoever is caught will be charged 20 pints deduction, Despite this, still they text and have their hands inside their bag hahaha, so stupid people, That is why every meeting short quiz to remedy the problem. There are also many students in our campus doing selfies and they never afraid to do selfie even at the top of the mountain, What can we call to them? Stupid and stubborn , right. So the youths now are the products of the technology and sooner or later many bad things would happen to them like health problems and mental
      problems.

      • Some drivers would warn passengers when they are to pass a certain place known for snatching cellphones from jeepneys who slowly traverses the road. Yet, students most specially would keep texting or playing a game on their phone , exposing them to the snatchers.

        Actually, there have been reports of cellphones being snatched from a texting passenger , yet some people are stubborn , thus their cellphones got snatched too. he he he

        As to those taking selfies, I can tolerate one or two selfie, though not everyday, posted at FB , but not everyday posting a selfie . Oh my, some people can be so feeling beautiful of themselves. ha ha ha Whenever I get a friend at FB who is like that, I skip her post. ha ha ha

    • @Dina, hahahahaha I am laughing here, yeah you are right those who always take selfie think that they are beautiful. I noticed that those who take selfies are women not men except for gays hehehe. It will be awkward to see a boy for exam taking a selfie of himself,LOL.
