    Our pumpkins are not large enough to make a Jack-O-lantern for Halloween

    • I love pumpkin seeds. It is delicious to eat and is good to have it as a snack or while waiting for someone elsewhere. It kills boredom.

    peachpurple wrote a new post, How to Steam Corn Cob in Rice Cooker 8 years, 1 month ago

    Locally, Steamed Corn on the Cob is one of many people’s favorite street snack that one can buy throughout the whole year. You don’t have to wait for seasonal time of the year to grab a corn cob. Fresh corns are […]

    • Did you steam the corns with its leaves? My son loves to eat corn too!
      I normally cook it in the hot water for time saving,fast!
      I found the corn is more expensive nowadays if compared to those old days. It costs RM1.50 or even more per piece. I don’t really understand what is the reason behind.
      Thus, I not buy very often, just wait when there is some offer, like 5 for RM5. The cheapest I have ever gotten was RM0.50 per piece at the wholesale wet market.
      However, it could make me scared on if it contains too much chemical residuals or not. Thus, I did not purchase too many.
      The corns from Cameron Highland are very nice to eat, very sweet and have two colours, white and yellow, it could be DNA modified type.
      After steaming, apply some butter and salt on the top would make the corn taste even better and sweet, I think. However, I not do in this way very often as I am the lazy type mummy, again. Haha!

    Life can be so demanding at times and there’s so many decisions to make. Although life can be so demanding, there’s a way to find comfort, a way to remove all of the stress. Finding the most effective ways to live […]

    • I love to sleep. That’s a fact. But I always choose the place where I sleep. Like Shavkat up there, I am also really comfortable when alone. But that doesn’t mean that I’m a loner. I just love the quiet. This is why me and my friends are always together; we look for quiet places to hang out to because we would rather stay in those places to relax, sleep or talk about things that interests us. Or we could go to a bar and listen to the music while dancing. Haha

    • The best place of comfort on earth if the lap of other or the beloved’s heart and eyes and putting your head on the beloved’s coral breast and sleep for a long long time I am talking as a poet.

      We are at our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we’ve established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile. Earl Nightingale

      I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other ‘gentleman’ stuff is a chess game, especially these days.

      Love is cheering and sharing and compassion and giving and receiving. Love is an action thing more than a word thing, that brings comfort or joy or relief to anyone or anything.

    • There are many places which each individual can find peace and calm. You have covered many such places and methods by which one can do so. I find peace when alone and doing some work or being in some silent company. Not in a noisy group or a crowded area. There are several places where you can remove you stress and clutter in the mind.

      Some of the places I find calm and peace are staying nearby a lake or water body and looking at the placid water, being at a place where you hear sounds of nature with greenery around. A place where there is a scenic view of mountains or plains or any other place which provides such picture postcard view. Looking at colors or paintings can also calm and remove stress. Hope this information is useful.

    There’s no way of getting around not being exposed to some negativity but we certainly don’t need to a be surrounded by toxicity. Those who offer no encouragement, no positivity, and no kindness aren’t the sort of […]

    • Overcoming negativity is tough, at times very much tougher if we have lots of such negative people around us, but we can overcome negativity if we are persistent and stick to our paths.

    • Always away from negative people who have negative thoughts in the brain such people are avoid of faith in God and his laws. The best took of keeping negativity away from yous is pray to God with sincere heart.

      Just as toxic radiation is poison to our health, negative energy is also disastrous to human beings. Don’t be misled into thinking that because bad vibes are invisible or hard to identify at their source that they’re any less deadly to your creative genius than poisonous gas—they aren’t. And don’t be conned into believing that denying or ignoring negativity will protect you from its deadly effects either—it won’t.

      how to Avoid Negativity Eight Important Steps to Follow

      Run a “vibe check”. Recognize the quality of the energetic atmosphere at work every day. Simply testing the psychic temperature of the workplace will allow you to make the necessary adjustments to keep your own energy intact.

      If you sense dissonance, take a deep breath. Get grounded, surround yourself with positive vibes, and resolve that you won’t let anything you encounter throw you off center.

      Resolve to let the negativity bounce off you. Don’t take any negativity you run into personally. Commit to focusing only on your goals and intentions for the day.

      Acknowledge the bad vibes. Recognize them in some way, if only to yourself—but be discreet and subtle. You don’t need to announce them to the entire office. This will only spread the negativity you want to clear even more.

      Be kind, loving, and patient with those around you because they need it. Focus on work, and if negative conversation arises, listen neutrally and compassionately if you can’t gracefully get away.
      Observe, don’t absorb what’s going on around you. If you can unobtrusively escape, do so. Your feet are two of your most powerful defenses against negativity. Turn them in the opposite direction of the problem and leave.

      If you can’t make a run for it, surrender and accept the situation. Give the bad-vibe dispenser (BVD) your complete attention for a full five minutes. Encourage this person to complain, gossip, attack, and whine to their heart’s content.

      Just listen, breathe, and stay neutral—don’t engage, resonate, or rescue. When the five minutes have passed, ask with complete sincerity if there’s anything you can personally do to help right now. If you hear, “Yes, there is,” and you can help, then do so. If you hear, “No, not really,” then say, “I’m sorry. I really hope it works out.” Then go back to work.

    Gardening is such a hobby that is full of anticipation. And anticipation plays a huge role in one’s life and this anticipation is a daily feature for gardeners. 

    It is not necessary that one should own acres […]

    • Growing pot planting is also the best hobby on earth and especially at home. It is far better who are retied from jobs and do thing all day they must grow a garden at home to kill time in positive activities is the best source of real joys.

      To grow rose in pots Just follow these steps:
      Choose the right rose. …
      Pick the right pot. …
      Use quality potting mix and enrich with compost to increase water holding capacity.
      Water regularly so that soil is moist, but not wet.
      Feed often for more blooms. …
      Prune as normal to deadhead, shape, and control insects and disease.

      Have you ever heard that anything that grows in the ground can be grown in a container? That’s true, even for roses. While potted roses have additional watering and fertilizing requirements, they are wonderful for patios, decks and balconies, making them adaptable focal points in any size garden. See our step-by-step guide below to make growing a rose container garden easier.

      Use containers that are large enough for the type of rose you’ll be growing — 10-inch-deep containers for miniature roses up to 1 1/2 feet tall; at least 1-foot-deep containers for patio roses up to 2 feet tall; 15-inch-deep pots for small shrub roses up to 2 to 3 feet tall; and 18- to 22-inch-deep pots for larger shrub roses that grow up to 4 feet tall.
