We have restaurants here in America by that name and they are French. But I never knew it was the name of a cake. I also didn’t know the cakes came in “flavors”. Sharing this. 🙂

Madelaine, I remember the this food in the movie of Jason Statham which I forgot the title, I think its Transporter. I love the taste of this bread and we have also the version of this in our region. Homemade is I prefer of this bread and I think the method above is really nice to follow in making some.

It sounds like the name of a pretty lady. I love cakes but do not know how to make them. One day I took all the ingredients. Mixed them thoroughly well. Then I poured enough oil, put it on an open fire, added the dough to the oil. I then covered the cake to bake. I went for a walk. When I came back, there was much smoke and the house was almost on fire. The cake was burnt but the inside was uncooked

I always have this veggie in our ref. It tastes bitter, but when I cook this,it is half cooked. Also, it does not stay fresh for 2 days. It must be cooked once bought parsley. It rots easily. When you cook beef stew, try to place the leaves only after your cooking ware is removed from fire.Let it half-cooked and eat happily when cooled.Thanks for reading should there be readers out there.LOL.

I like veggies very much. Most of my food items are veggies only. The egg is preferred sometimes that too in winter .

Man has been struggling to have a good and long life. A long life without good health is useless and a health with a short life means there is no meaning for birth.

When I visited U.S I happened to see this in the Malls of Florida.I need not talk about the temperature in Florida . It will be very hot.

When I inquired about this leafy they told me about it. It is having some varieties. The leaves and some root type. The Parsley grows at temperatures of 25-30 deg. celsius. This is widely used in Brazil,Middle East , Europe and in U.S. In the U.S it is widely used in cooking. But in India, I have noticed it. It is only after reading this Article I just went back and could recollect the life I had in U.S some one year back.
In Eastern Europe, Western Asia, and in the Central Europe this is many dishes are served with chopped Parsley leaves on the top of them and also for topping the soups.In major Brazilian dishes, this is a must. It also contains Vitamin K, Vitamin C, and Vitamin A. Half a table- spoon of dried leaves of Parsley will be rich in Alpha Carotene and Beta Carotene.
The Sad of this is that the consumption should be in limits. Safe in normal food only.

Pregnant women should avoid the consumption of Parsley.

I did not know that parsely has some good benefits for the body. I oftenly use it and I love the smell especially really gives food a good aroma. I used to cook it just forthe aroma part of it and for garnish mostly. Now at least i have learned th3 benefits of cooking it in food and eating it very interesting i will now start using it more often with the thought of benefits on my mind thanks for sharing.

Am so much educated by this Informative article. Parsley seems to be the vegetable of the Present generation. Many seem to be Ailing for not Eating right.

I totally agree with you On the Eating of these parsley. I tend to have not seen them where I Come From

Parsley is also good for bad breath. A fashion model told me that. She said because they didn’t eat much since they were trying to maintain their weight, the odor coming from their empty stomachs would sometimes give them bad breath. Their trick was to eat parsley. Health and beauty tip! 🙂

Barley is one of the best food for human health and its called ground energy for human body. Actually Although barley may not be as popular as other whole grains like oats, wheat, or even grain-of-the-moment quinoa, barley has some impressive health benefits. …
Barley provides a range of important vitamins and minerals: fiber, selenium, B vitamins, copper, chromium, phosphorus, magnesium, niacin,

Barley is a major cereal grain, commonly found in bread, beverages, and various cuisines of every culture. It was one of the first cultivated grains in history and, to this day, remains one of the most widely consumed grains, globally.

Barley and other whole grain foods have rapidly been gaining popularity over the past few years due to the various health benefits they provide.

Whole grains are important sources of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals that are not found in refined or “enriched” grains.

When refined, grains lose certain components (specifically, the bran and germ), which also removes most of the fiber and nutrients naturally found in most grains.

Choosing whole grains over their processed counterparts reduces the risk of several chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

You are very right. As more and more women are working outside homes, it has become very convenient to eat out. Children also prefer to try cuisines of different countries and it is very difficult to prepare all these things at home.But still, all things should be in moderation and eating out once or twice a week can be okay if at other times, we prepare and eat home made meals.

@peacpurple, eating outside does a lot of fun and dies a lot of money spending nonsense foods. We are advised by nutrition experts to cook our foods for we know much the value of what we are cooking than eating outside foods that may harm our health. I noticed that those who always eat at Jolibee after few months their body expanded ,Lol. Simply because the foods they prepared contain lots of fatty foods and oil that sometimes cause LBM. Try to squeeze their fries, oil comes out.

Eating out generally is due to

1.saving of time 2. Easy to taste various varieties 3. for a change

When husband and wife both are employed then there is no alternative to relay on ‘TAKE AWAY’s. Even if the food is cooked at home, at least once in a week for change sake, eating out is acceptable as there is a scope for tasting varieties of food stuff also. But it should be in minimum frequencies. Frequent visits will definitely spoil the health of family members. Once in a week, I prefer to eat in Punjabi Dhabas. There I prefer only 2 Masala kulchas with Kaju Butter masala which will be quite sufficient for a dinner.

It is Amazing how many people Take Eating out as a Treat. They view it as Something Special. Least do view Know of the ruin they are causing.

Meals Prepared in the house are both nutritious, Fresh and Take into consideration the calories Taken. Most of the Food out are not even Fresh. It is Better to avoid such.

My Suggestion is that if It is a must to Take your family out then prepare your Food and Take them for a Picnic or order your Food in Advance

I love cookies and anything biscuit. But th3 only cookis that i know how to bake are baking powder biscuits i tried them once just out of curiosity and they came out so well I was even shocked. But the one thing that i have always wanted to know how to bake are fluffy cookies. I don’t know how to bake them and I am all over trying to get the best ingredients and the methods of how to do them. Am not a particular fun of oats but I think the recipe can work without the oats. Thanks for sharing. I think at this rate I may end up being good at my baking because of your awesome tips thanks.

Archie’s comics talks of Betty and Veronica where Betty a poor girl has a perfect figure doing household chores while Veronica the rich girl struggles at Gyms and envies Betty 😀

This is very informative. I do a lot of household Chores but I capture back all the lost calories when I sit down with my cup of mid morning tea and eat a slice of brownie or cake:)

Exercise is a must for everyone though most of us don’t like to do them or even take the time to try. At least I try to do most of the exrcises that you have mentioned above. The one I did not know works to burn calories is chopping vegetables. Even though I tend to do a lot of cooking and chopping I didn’t know am doing myself some good. Brisk walking is my favorite because I do this like literally everyday for like 45 minutes though I feel tired after walking am hapo that some calories have been shed off which is a good thing.

When you exercise, you use muscle. This helps build muscle mass, and muscle tissue burns more calories — even when you’re at rest — than body fat. According to Wharton, 10 pounds of muscle would burn 50 calories in a day spent at rest, while 10 pounds of fat would burn 20 calories.

“Studies have shown that with increases in exercise time, the elevation in resting metabolic rate is prolonged,”

For those reluctant to do their household chores, the knowledge you might burn a significant amount of calories might just be the motivation you need.

Boredom is more often than not associated with cleaning and DIY, however the vigorous exercise that goes into it is often forgotten. A jog or spin class is not the only way to burn calories and lose weight, after all.

The home improvement service Plentific rounded up how many calories you burn each hour from doing the following chores based on an adult’s weight of 150lbs (10.7 stone).

Cleaning

For light cleaning jobs like dusting or hanging up clothes, you can burn 171 calories in an hour. So if you add in some more strenuous cleaning methods like hovering, you can burn even more. The amount of calories burned cleaning are therefore equivalent to almost four jaffa cakes.

Sweeping

Brushing away the dust on the kitchen floor or leaves outside on the patio for one hour can result in 269 calories being burned, meaning just 30 minutes of sweeping will burn 135 calories – almost as much as a can of coke.

Moving furniture

While re-organising the furniture in your home is often an arduous task, the benefits, in addition to rejuvenating the feng shui, are evident by burning 408 calories. Therefore, one hour of furniture moving is similar to playing 50 minutes of tennis.

Gardening

While the weather might be too cold to venturing out into the garden just yet, when spring arrives putting on your gloves and getting your fingers green can burn you 339 calories. Similarly, pushing around a lawn mower for an hour burns 376 calories – more than two bottles of Stella Artois.

Painting a room

If a New Year’s resolution was to freshen up the home with some redecorating, you’ll be pleased to know it burns 306 calories. If this is a longer job, which it very often is, and takes four hours that is 1200 calories burned on painting walls- the same as two Big Macs.

I like the one that encourages reading. 🙂
