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!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
