Instagram Cooking: Chickpeas Fritters, Anyone?

A fritter is a fried food usually consisting of a portion of batter or breading which has been filled with bits of meat, seafood, fruit, vegetables or other ingredients. Fritters are prepared in both sweet and savory varieties... - Wikipedia.org
Posting about recipes as I am cooking everyday is such a task! LOL. Add that to the cooking, cutting and cleaning itself. Man...

So, today, I will share something from my Instagram instead.


It looks easy enough to make and I might try it out for myself! I don't know how my kids are going to take to chickpeas because I've never really tried them before, having stuck safely to the Chinese staple food most of the time. Of course, when you have kids, you can't escape the pasta, cheese, pizza and lasagna but I've not ventured, kitchen-wise, beyond that.

Fritters. Huh. But it involves Turmeric, which is one of the most potent anti-inflammatory foods in the world. It's been around for the longest time in some Asian countries but it's finally made its way into the culinary worktables of moms and chefs on the other side of the world in recent years.
These compounds are called curcuminoids, the most important of which is curcumin. Curcumin is the main active ingredient in turmeric. It has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and is a very strong antioxidant. However, the curcumin content of turmeric is not that high... - HealthLine.com 
I'm currently still recovering from a bout of flu so, I am pretty much like this at the moment. I'll update my Cookpad into the blog soon. I've only stopped sneezing at 140 kmph x 28 times this afternoon and still trying to catch my runaway nose.


Hope you're feeling healthier and more alive on the other side of the screen!
XOXO,
Marsha

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Drunk People Cannot Make Comments on Blogs

OK, here's the thing with this image thing....you don't want people to design robots or programs or spiders or cockroaches or whatever to spam blogs and websites. I understand that. In fact, I am all for it. It's annoying to have spambots come in and post one liners like.... Can't get it up? Try this website. Top quality Viagra for low pricing. Value discount if bought inbulk. Or the most common ones would be.... Want a completely paid-for holiday with your family and coming home to a villa beside the sea before taking a spin in your luxury car. Then you have to read this! It's amazing! Within three weeks, you will get $32,000 in your account. Within a month, whether you like it or not, we'll bank in $65,498 into your bank account. Within six months, you're a f*%#@* royalty. I don't like that....and I assuming you don't like that either, right? If you have a popular blog, you get even worse stuff like hate mails, awful comments or people who ...

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked whatā€™s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it isā€¦. If you say ā€˜ reading ā€™, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ā€¦.) and I also love mystery novels but itā€™s not the first on the list. If you say ā€˜ playing the piano ā€™; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), thereā€™s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. Itā€™s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ā€˜ writing ā€™; Youā€™ve got to be kidding me! You mean I donā€™t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ā€˜ playing with my kids ā€™; Yea...
