Let the adventures begin ~ #Beijing here I come! So excited to show my mom the city sights β€ Any recomnendations of where to go and where not to go (don’t have a ton of money π)?


I love fountains – to be honest I just love water-based scapes of any kind – rainy days, the ocean, the great lakes, . . . water soothes my spirit β€

When the sun feeds you life so you face the world with an open heart. . .

First efforts at making Fried Rice at home – well, first at making any rice! π Since I’ve lived in Asia 6 years now, thought I ought to try π Came out DELICIOUS! It’s seriously as good as any I’ve ever tried before!
.
Rice was shockingly easy:
+ Cups of rice (your choice) – I mixed rice types & it came out good β
+2 Cups if Water per Cup of rice
+ Salt (I used a shaker and put about 4 twists)
Get water really boiling (high medium heat) for a few minutes. Throw in rice & salt. Put on lid and leave at same heat for 18 minutes. Don’t take off the lid! Turn off but leave covered until pan is cooled. Refrigerate overnight for #FriedRice
Fried Rice:
+3-4 Cups of Cooked Rice (next day)
+1 Bag of frozen mixed vegetables or mix fresh of (corn, peas, carrots)
+2-3TBSP Oil for frying (Olive, Sesame, Vegetable)
+ 3-4T Soy Sauce (add more to cover as needed – it goes a long way)
+ Fresh Garlic (sliced thinly to taste)
Cook vegetables and garlic first in oil until done, stirring occasionally. Add rice and stir in slowly until rice is thoroughly warmed and mixed in. Add Soy Sauce. Warm a little longer. SERVE! ππ
