Fish with Blackbean Garlic Sauce

Fish with Blackbean Garlic Sauce

The dinner I cooked the other night. It’s not my first though, but first time I use a Tilapia fish. Usually we have the fillet but last weekend, the husband bought 2 big tilapia and asked me to cook this particular recipe that I have done before. So I cooked it for our dinner and he said, the taste just right! :D

Honeymoon Dessert

No, we didn’t go for another honeymoon, hahaha… but that’s the name of the restaurant we often go for our dessert. Yesterday, after we have our mass we went to Times Square to have our dessert.

And what we order always are these:

Thai Black Glutinous rice with Mango
Thai Black Glutinous rice with Mango
This is my favorite. And serve either in hot or cold, your choice. I love the hot serving and it’s really so good!

Pecan Brownies

Though one of my agendas last weekend was to bake, it’s not my plan of doing this Pecan Brownies. :) I’m eyeing to bake a Blueberry slice since my blueberries will expire soon. But I’m lacking one of the ingredients, which I couldn’t find in the nearby supermarket. I’m sure it has on the other store but I need to commute to get to that store, which is quite far. Then the thought of baking brownies came up when I saw some Pecan nuts on the cabinet. It made me smile and then I said to the husband, I’m going to use this and bake brownies…

Top 3 Food Myths Debunked

Such a nice article to read in the morning… wanna share this to you:

1. Margarine contains less fat than butter
Actually, both contain similar amounts of fat, just different types. Margarine contains harmful transfats that can raise cholesterol levels whereas butter has saturated fat, which can lead to heart disease. Either one you choose, it’s best to only have a little.

2. Low-fat products are always healthier
With some foods, such as meat, you can be sure that the less fat they have, the better. But some foods labeled “low-fat” won’t necessarily be low in energy and will replace the fat with other ingredients, sometimes ending up with an even higher calorie content.

3. Red wine is good for you
In moderation, alcohol appears to be good for the heart. Thanks to its alcohol content, antioxidants and polyphenols, red wine has been shown to help prevent formation of blood clots and reduce the risk of heart disease. But if you have more than the recommended one drink per day the benefits are lost and health risks go up.

We always have red wine at home. The husband and I do drink one glass per day. It’s so nice.
