Normally I do ok in the evenings but yesterday was pizza and ice cream again.
It was relatively healthy pizza and ice cream, at least.
Relatively less unhealthy pizza and icecream, right?
Right, homemade pizza with quality ingredients, including some veggies and herbs from the garden, and bougie ice cream with only a few ingredients.
Homemade, okay.
I do occassionally cook chinese and I believe that's healthier than I can get from market. Also maybe we can exchange some ideas on herbs. I also grow some in my garden.
The only two things that grew really well for me this year are basil, dill, and hot peppers. Last year, I also had parsley, cilantro, and oregeno.
I also have a rosemary bush, which is one of the few things that doesn't get eaten by deer.
You know (Holy) Basil is almost grown in every house in india. It's actually worshipped here. I use the raw leaves now and then but we don't use them in cooking. I also have mint leaves.
Yeah, hot peppers is used in almost every curry and dish here except for sweets. I have them too.
We don't have parsley, but we have Bishop's weed as replacement.
Cilantro doesn't grow at this time here but every winter I have them.
For oregano, we use mexican mint. I grew them once but not anymore as we don't get good crop for it.
We don't have deers but we have monkeys and they do a lot of damage o the garden.
I also have some fruits like mango and guava and we have to do a lot of efforts to secure the crop.
Yeah one special herb I have is Parijat (Tree of Sorrow) which has exceptional medicinal properties in curing and preventing a lot of diseases.
One more that I have is sweet neem, we use it in curries. It gives a mild sweet-sour flavour and is also exceptionally medicinal.
For fruit, I got a few strawberries and blackberries this year, we have some small watermelons!, and we used the only sweet pepper that grew on the pizza.
Great!
I too have have blackberries, besides mulberries and gooseberries - all three are also found everywhere around me.
I live besides the Ganga (big river) and Watermelons are quite famous here,but I don't grow them. I get them from my farm where they (I rent my farm on an annual basis because it's far from where I live) grow it in along with cucumber, muskmelon and long melon before monsoon.
What's "master my evenings?" Then also "walk with yougurt "
late night snacking. Cookies chocolate sweets with milk
Walk with yogurt. If I could master my evenings like my mornings I would have a much lower body fat composition
