Writers block
I’ve had tons of thoughts running through my mind as I am slowly preparing to leave Hamburg after six months and come back home, but for some reason I am not sure how to express them without rambling.
Maybe an afternoon in the park and some good music can solve the blockage…
Enjoy your Sunday.
Do you eat any of these?
According to a recent NY Times article here are the top 11 foods that you should be eating, but probably aren’t (and suggestions on how to eat them):
- Beets – Fresh, raw and grated to make a salad. Heating decreases the antioxidant power.
- Cabbage – Asian-style slaw or as a crunchy topping on burgers and sandwiches.
- Swiss Chard – Chop and saute in olive oil.
- Cinnamon – Sprinkle on coffee, apple sauce or oatmeal.
- Pomegranate Juice – Just drink it.
- Dried Plums – aka prunes
- Pumpkin Seeds – Roasted as a snack, or sprinkled on salad.
- Sardines – Choose sardines packed in olive or sardine oil. Eat plain, mixed with salad, on toast, or mashed with dijon mustard and onions as a spread.
- Turmeric – Mix with scrambled eggs or in any vegetable dish.
- Frozen Blueberries (or fresh, in season) – to long to list.
- Canned Pumpkin – Mix with a little butter, cinnamon and nutmeg.
How many do you eat?
Have you seen … ?
I am always that person who has never seen … movie. Well I have just added two ‘classics’ to my list. Via iTune’s $.99 movie rental of the week I have watched both The Usual Suspects and The Untouchables. I have to say that I enjoyed both immensely, especially for $.99 each.
Next up is Robocop…
The home stretch
I have made it to July and into the home stretch! I have 8 more days of work and 11 total days left in Hamburg before retuning home.
The countdown is not because I didn’t enjoy my time here in Hamburg, it really has been a great 6 months, but I am super duper excited to be back home in NY/NJ with family and friends in less than two weeks (yes I said super duper).
See you soon!
