FOOD prep in Micro?// lifestyle, @home, tips


THE BEST WAY TO MICRO YOUR FOOD

Since the pandemic  , the fact we couldn't dine out or go to restaurants was not possible.
Now we can with of course the proper requirements .  I suppose like most of us we have been
cooking and baking a lot more the usual.  I will say, i am really tired of cooking. I wanted a break from it. So one option was the easy micro meals.  Some are pretty tasty and easy, plus it was to hot
to cook last week.



We had a few dinners that were fine, a pasta meat combo and a meatball puree potato one. both were
tasty and quick.  It does remind me of airplane foods, just not on a plane.

Just lately i read a report on using microwaves to prepare foods or vegetables. A very interesting study and informative .

HOW TO HEAT YOUR MEALS IN MICRO

Certains vegetables lose their nutrition when microwaved,  it also depends on the power level and amount of water , and time. Less water, less power level and less time  seems to be the answer .

The container, plastic according to the report is NOT the best! Also to use safe  products with the stamps to use in micro.

BEST is use a glass or ceramic to heat  your foods drinks etc, Avoid plastics.

CORNINGWARE SET





PYREX 


Usually when i do use the micro i will use a glass bowl for the vegetables and very little water, i don't
like my veggies soggy. I also use  corning ware which is ideal for microwave.
Pyrex or corning ware are ideal for that, plus they can be used in the oven.

So if you are into preparing your foods in the microwave , here are a few tips for you.

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs  Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes!  I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses.  Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ??  Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number .  Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop .  Other than the price.style or quality.  Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important .  The style look and what suits you are all things to consider .  The UV protection is what really matters  also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why?  If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to  consider .  Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
