    peachpurple wrote a new post, Egg Tofu with Minced Meat Sauce 8 years, 2 months ago

    This is an easy entry meal!
    A perfect main course dish for my family, who loves tofu and minced meat very much .
    Yesterday, after I had browsed through the fridge for any left-overs ( my hubby always reminded me […]

    • I salute you peach you are a very hard working lady in terms of cooking.I hope your kids are not over weight hehehe kidding aside. I love tofu. I can cook this.I bought a recipe in the mall that contains only different recipes of tofu, so I learned to cook the recipe of my preference.I am so thankful that I have just dined or else I will be so hungry hehehehe.Good work @peach purple.You have many posts approved this time.

    • Your husband is correct, no waste on food. Even when I eat at restaurant, I’m always the last one to finish because I sometimes eat left overs in the bowl. Its been my habit because there are so many people not eating in a day and here we are just wasting these leftover food. I salute you for making some twists food in your fridge.

    • I think your recipe is a bit different for me because I am male and I tried to make the dish you mention in the article but could not make properly and got disappointment standing in the kitchen. Now I read in the nook and find this recipe that is very easy for all. as

      1: What you will need. Ingredients: You’ll need water, 3 cups of dry soy beans and 2 TBSP of Epsom Salt. …
      Step 2: Soak and Blend. …
      Step 3: Stir and Simmer. …
      Step 4: Strain Out Milk. …
      Step 5: Coagulate. …
      Step 6: Add to Mold. …
      Step 7: Finished.

      Tofu is great in so many recipes and easy to make. Along the way you will also make soy milk and have some okara left over. Okara is basically just bean pulp but it is great in breads, burgers, or cookies.

      Ingredients:
      You’ll need water, 3 cups of dry soy beans and 2 TBSP of Epsom Salt. As an alternative to the Epsom Salt, you may use 75ml of lemon juice. Most of the nicer grocery stores will have the soy beans and you can find Epsom Salt at the pharmacy.

      Equipment:
      Food processor or blender, 2 large pots, 1 colander, 1 strainer, and a mesh bag. Instead of the mesh bag you could also use a few layers of cheesecloth.

    • Egg tofu, as its name suggests, is made a type of savory tofu flavored with egg. It is usually (if not always) available in the tube form.

      As with all tofu, egg tofu is high in calcium, protein and iron, while being low in calories at the same. It helps guards against colon cancer and heart diseases. It is also known to promote energy production and aid in weight loss.

    Sometimes, when I am facing stressed out, I couldn’t make myself cheerful in-front o […]

    • Our child is the joy of our home but of course, sometimes, they cause stress because they might be annoying because they are just too repetitive and stubborn. Or maybe they break some porcelain or appliances in the house.

      Your tip to handle stress is so important to us, I think this really helps to us.

    • The main cause of stress is that when someone’s be uncertain about the problem he or she facing in such condition uncertainty terror spreads in human soul and we call in stress in modern language.

      When someone makes a corner in his or her mind the preaction result of any action causes stress in human soul. Actually it is created in human soul and its appearance becomes on human mind screen and its mirror becomes human face.

      If you have stress in such condition think what is your mistake in this matter that causes stress because there is no action that has its reaction. The same formula is applied in case of stress. You do something wrong in any shape and its reaction appears in semblance of stress prevailing on human face.

    • At present this is the best blog that I can relate to.

      I’m really short tempered and handling a naughty kid is no more than a big challenge for me. I usually cannot handle work pressure be it household or professional.

      The situation further worsens when you have a kid eating up your head the whole day long.

      But i shall follow your advice from now on and really hope the it will help me to make my life better.

    • Good. Let me know about another article of yours. I like your writing style.

    • It is very true unfortunately that kids nowadays have no time for reading school books. Even the story books that our parents used to buy for us when we were younger so that we could improve on our English language, spellings and grammar, things that made us better are things that are not being done by parents nowadays. If I look back in the days parents had a day in everything that a child was doing and it was their word against the kids. No one had a right as such to decline what the parent said you just had to do it for your own goodness sake. So would I be wrong to say that parents nowadays are slacking behind when it comes to taking care of their kids? I don’t think so .like you have said kids from the age of 5 spend so much time online, who teaches those kids how to operate those gadgets and how do they get hold of them is it not the parents in the pretends that they want their kids to be well informed and not slack back? If anything the best thing a parent would do for a child is to get them various books and teach them what the real world is all about.and not lie to them that the world is an easy place to be. It’s only the parents that can decide what a child should and should not have not the other way round that is my opinion.

      • yes, if parents had initiated the first step, then children will follow suit later.
        Back then, my parents couldn’t afford to buy story books for me.
        We had borrowed from libraries and got free old encyclopedias from my rich cousins.

        We never had computers at home since we cannot afford one.
        So that is how I got hooked to reading

    • The question now is how to bring back the interest in children to read stories. It will never be a question if there are good stories because we have lots of books and stories from the past up to now.

      Maybe the parents should invest time to read some stories to their children. This one will develop their interest to read more stories. When I was a kid I love to read stories and now I am a writer.

      • true, parents should spend more time on reading books, newspapers to kids when they are young.
        because once they becomes adult, they are not keen in reading anymore

    • It is a fact that children are not interested in reading due to computer or YVs or movies all dancing on the screen before their eyes that is why reading trends in children are losing interest but I think it is a very serious matter we all must think abut this serious and dangerous matter what to do now?

      f we want our young people to read, it won’t happen automatically. There are too many other fun things to do. But it’s not rocket science. If we care about reading, and if we put good books in front of students, and if we foster a love of reading, then young people will read.

      Your life evolves into different sets of responsibilities, interests and aspirations that are reflected by how you utilize time. In other words, one day you were a readaholic and then next you discover internet video surfing which replaced your reading times. Surfing time became more important to you.

      The best part of reading is that not only do you gain knowledge but the process of reading books helps unlocks different parts of your brain that enhances your ability to acquire different perceptions and interpretation about life that leads to deeper insight.

      Let us think why children are losing interest in reading?

        Yeah cakes with dried fruits are great.
        I love the chewy bites and chocolate chips, that is gorgeous!
        But there is one problem, chocolate chips keep sinking down to the base.
        Raisins need to be mixed with rum so that won’t sink.

    • Am wondering when you write thick tea what exactly do you mean does it mean that the tea has to be strong or what. I don’t know about green tea because I personally find it bitter is that a good idea really? Aanyway I know orange gives cake a veruy distinct taste, I baked a cake the other day and put in some lemon runs and some of its juice and voila!

    Most patients with high blood pressure hate the taste of bitter medicine.

    This apply the same theory for exercise, anything that is related to physical activities, people with high blood pressure are giving […]

    • thanks very much. I believed that exercise benefits for everyone, regardless with or without illness

    • Yes, there are many exercises for high blood pressure that may be done at home. If you already have hypertension, regular physical activity can bring your blood pressure down to safer levels. The best types of exercise for lowering blood pressure include walking, jogging, cycling, swimming or dancing. Strength training also can help reduce blood pressure.

      Exercise in our culture may not “just happen.” When your daily routine includes hours of sitting at a desk using computers and browsing the internet, staying current with television shows and using countless labor-saving devices, you can easily fall into inactivity. But taking charge of your fitness may be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make. The choice is yours.

      For overall health benefits to the heart, lungs and circulation, perform any moderate- to vigorous-intensity aerobic activity using the following guidelines:

      For most healthy people, get the equivalent of at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) per week of moderate-intensity physical activity, such as brisk walking.
      If you need to lower your blood pressure or cholesterol, aim for 40 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity 3 to 4 times per week.
      You can incorporate your weekly physical activity with 30 minutes a day on at least 5 days a week.
      Physical activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes, and preferably, it should be spread throughout the week.
      Include flexibility and stretching exercises.
      Include muscle strengthening activity at least 2 days each week.

    • Physical activity or exercise can improve your health and reduce the risk of developing several diseases like type 2 diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular disease. Physical activity and exercise can have immediate and long-term health benefits. Most importantly, regular activity can improve your quality of life. Exercise helps people lose weight and lower the risk of some diseases. Exercising to maintain a healthy weight decreases a person’s risk of developing certain diseases, including type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. These diseases, which used to be found mostly in adults, are becoming more common in teens.Physical exercise is any bodily activity that enhances or maintains physical fitness and overall health and wellness. It is performed for various reasons, including strengthening muscles and the cardiovascular system, honing athletic skills, weight loss or maintenance, and merely enjoyment.A workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem.

    Everyone has problems.

    Even school-age children and teenagers faced […]

    • I wouldn’t really know what to say about it as a parent because am not one. But let me speak as a child who has been there before and who has been there for my teenage nephews and nieces. Many are the times parents have a problem with their teenage kids, because maybe they’re too harsh or are you busy to listen to them. I remember when my nephew was in high school he had a hard time talking to his dad because he believed that what he said is what stays, but little did he know that he was pushing away his son without his knowledge. His mum died when he was still a young boy so he became so close to me and I became his “mum”.he would open up to me and I would advice him accordingly. So I felt that th3 dad did not give him time or an ear to hear what he had to say it share and that can be very dangerous in a growing child. So I agree with you on the 4 points and if parents could just spare some quality time with their kids they wouldn’t be having problems like saying that don’t wanna go to school.

    • Children face three types of problems at homes and schools: psychological, psychical and mental. Mental problem is genetically, physical problem is by birth and psychological problem starts with home atmosphere. First child is brought up st homes and after this children go children go schools to improve home education.

      If children face any type of problem at school its root lies at home and not at school. Parents are supposed to to bring up heir children in a peaceful atmosphere so that they could face any problem at school because its hinders the children’s educational progress.

      Ups and downs at school are part of life for many young people. A good relationship with your child’s school and teachers can help you head off problems. If school problems do come up, it’s important that you quickly recognise and address them.

      School problems can show up as poor academic performance, lack of motivation for school, loss of interest in school work, or poor relationships with peers or teachers.

      School difficulties range from minor to severe, might be very short-lived or last for longer. Even short-term school problems can have a negative impact on how young people feel about school – and themselves.
