It’s a freezing-cold-soup-kind-of-day here in Montreal.... how generous of my friend Marina to share some Australian warmth with me. You can find the recipe for this nutritious & delicious Black-eyed Bean Stew on @olivesandfeta ...tomorrow I’ll show you what else I made from her blog (i couldn’t resist 🙈) : Totally unrelated but speaking of black eyes... last month, my crazy husband who runs to work in this freezing-cold-soup-kind-of-weather, had a bad fall and messed up his pretty face... all better now but he did have a black eye for a few days. From now on, let’s keep the black eyes on the beans please! : : : : : : : #recipesarebestshared #blackeyedbeans #soup #soupweather #canadianwinter #winterfood #olivesandfeta #foodphotography #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #vegetarianrecipes #vegan #plantprotein #slowlygoingvegan #mtlmoments #foodasmedicine #thesupperclubmag #myquietstyle #simplelife #pulses #ihavethisthingfordarkness #darktablemood #darkfoodphotography #foodwithoutborders

10 days late and written up in 10 minutes flat, there’s a new recipe up on the blog... spiced hot chocolate. The days may be getting longer, but to me it seems they’re getting shorter 🤷‍♀️... bear with me while I catch up on life! .... Yesterday, I convinced myself that it was ok to drop the kids off at school in my pjs, it was also the day, I had to get out of the car 🤦‍♀️ If red flannel pants become the next fashion trend, you know who to thank. #littlestoriesofmylife : : : : : : : : #hotchocolate #mexicanhotchocolate #theartofeatingwell #moodyfood ##darkandmoody #thesupperclubmag #darktablemood #simpleisbeautiful #beautifulsimplicity #lifeandthyme #f52grams #thefeedfeed #montreal #moodygrams #tv_moodystilllife #lowlightphotography #winterlight #wintermagic #winter #fairtrade #foodwithoutborders

Rye bread from @_mamieclafoutis ... How does my baker know that I’m waiting for spring?? On the other hand, we introduced our five-year-old to skiing this past weekend.

New month but still cough & cold season here. 🤧😷🤒 Growing up with Indian parents, we had two cough and cold medicine options: turmeric milk or turmeric lemon. For me the lesser of the two evils was the lemon so it baffles me that so many years later, it would be turmeric milk that would rise to having a cult following in cafés all over the world and take on the name Golden Milk. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Here’s the lesser known Ayurvedic “cure” for the common cold (read carefully to avoid unexpected results): 1. Cut lemon in half crosswise. 2. Place cut side up in a small ramekin, you may need to trim the bottom slightly so that it sits upright. 3. Sprinkle generously with sea salt. 4. Dust generously with turmeric powder. 5. Roast in 400 degrees F oven for about 20-30 minutes, the skin should be charred slightly. 6. Gently scoop out the pulp (which by now has turned to mush and looks like puke🤮), be careful not to burn yourself. 7. Eat while warm, try not to produce more puke. 🤢 8. But seriously, it works wonders, I think we should call it Golden Lemon.🤔 : : : : : : : : : #ayurvedic #turmeric #myindianparents #indian #desilife #ayurvedicmedicine #indianfoodbloggers #desifood #ourfoodstories #foodblogfeed #foodphotography #happyfebruary #healthyrecipes #eattheworld #shareyourtable #mtlmoments #foodpics #fooddiary #darkandmoody #lowlightphotography #lifeandthyme #thesupperclubmag #healingfood #detox #healthylifestyle
