Love Letters

To walk in love means that we do continually the little acts of Kindness that can make life bearable and better for another person.

One special way to express our love costs only the price of a postage stamp - plus paper, ink, and a little thought.

All of us have felt the nudge to write a letter - an unexpected note that could brighten another person's day.Perhaps it is a note of appreciation, an expression of concern, or a compliment for a task well done. Too often the letter goes unwritten and the impulse is unexpressed. We convince ourselves that we don't have time, or that letter won't matter....

A young ministry cherished a note he recieved from a busy architect in his congregation.The letter said simply. " Your sermojn met me where I was on sunday [ @ the crossroads of confusion and hurts] Thanks for preaching it!." Those words met the pastor where he live - at the intersection of discouragement and pain and incouragement him to keep on in the ministry. The note took less than 5 minutes to write...

Can you think of someone who needs encouragement, Thanks or a reminder that you are praying for him or her? WALK IN LOVE TO A MAIL BOX TODAY..!

It was only a brief little note,
or a word that was prayerfully spoken,
yet not in vain, for it soothed the pain
of a heart that was nearly broken ......
P.S ....Choose a true friends, a friend indeed and a friend who doesn't required a FRIENDSHIP FEE....

Forgetting You

Forgetting you is now what I am trying
Instead, forgetting you is what I am doing
Because I really can't take the pain anymore
and it is causing me to slowly die.
Forgetting you is hard but it's the best
thing to do
'coz I know that WE will never be again
for you have your new life now
with this lucky girl, a good friend of mine.
Everytime you are together
I keep on hiding my feelings
trying to show no emotion as much as
possible
'coz I dont wan't you to see me crying.
I really love you
God knows how much I love you
but I really need to erase you in my
heart
for forgetting you is the best thing to do.

The FOX and The CROW

One day
the fox crawled through the orchard
he saw a bunch of grapes
hanging from the vines
clinging to the high branch,
he thought it was just what he wanted,
because he was thirsty,
he drew back a pace, run a few steps then
he jumped and reach for the bunch,
but the fox missed everytime he did
at last he gave up and walk away with nose in the air saying
"I'm sure those grapes are sour ".......

P.S. My first nursery rhyme teached by my mom, I learned since I was 8 yrs old and I learn by rote, I really liked the SENSE OF HUMOR of the fox and might be the reason why
i behave like a fox having a foxy minded sometimes.......Cheers Foh meh~!!!

BULGOGI




Bulgogi comes(gets) from Korea and signifies so much like "fire meat", in a Korean restaurant we have got to know it. Finally, we have our own Bulgogi of grill thing and have also already initiated it. This special grill is to be got in Germany under circumstances heavy and exists(consists) of a gas range on which then the "frying pan"("socket") is put on(arranged). There are the gas ranges and butane gas cartouches practically(virtually) in every Asia market, and probably also as a camping need. Against it(However) one hardly finds the frying pan(socket). In Frankfurt one has good chances to find a well sorted store, we have ordered(appointed) the black cast-iron frying pan(socket) then, however, in a store(loading) in Trier, there was the brass frying pan in Taiwan. Who would like to postcook and help(assistance) or other(farther) tips to the procurement needs(requires) can announce itself(can contact) with pleasure. Of course also who has good tips for us!;-)
There is a row of different prescriptions(recipes) to Bulgogi, we have and resolved to do(make) a little bit own variation(variant):

Ingredients for 2 persons:
300-400g fillet of beef or cattle hip
For the marinade:
1 tablespoon salty +2 tablespoons of sweet soy sauce2 tablespoons of sake or white wine3 tablespoons of brown sugar or a little less sugar and grated half a pear(half a light bulb)1 tablespoon of oil (sesame-seed oil)1 tablespoon of sesame (roasted)3 toes garlic, hackedSteak spice or pepper
As additions:4 poles spring onions100 gs of champignon1-2 paprikas(peppers)1 small(little) courgette100 gs of mongoose's rungsor what one eats, otherwise, so with pleasure in vegetables

Vegetable stock
The meat(flesh) very thinly (approx. 2 mms) cut (with sharp knife or easily frozen with the bread slicer). The vegetables in discs(slices) cut. The sesame in a frying pan(in a socket) without oil brown lightly.For the marinade mix soy sauce, wine, sugar, sesame-seed oil, sesame, garlic and spice or pepper. Meat(Flesh) allow to mix with the marinade well and move at least 2 hours in the fridge. Who wants can also let the onions or the vegetables with move.
The vegetable stock is given in the channel of the frying pan(the socket). Meat(Flesh) with the marinade without other(farther) oil addition in the middle roast. One can roast the vegetables in addition or cook in the broth. With the time the water from the broth evaporates, hence, one has to go from and postpour. If one refills instead of waters with broth, it can become very salty with the time, hence, one should try out this.

We prepare salad(lettuce) and rice as an addition। If one takes out the vegetables with some broth, and with the rice eats together, it does not make dust with the masticating in such a way;-) Who knows a lot in the Korean kitchen(cuisine) better (than us up to now) does(makes) certainly Kimchi it, but in it we still work...

Good appetite!
P.S. This recipe copied from the homepage of my great friend Rolf ..O~O!...I am permitted, Lol..., as what he suggested that I should try this special dish as it taste like heaven and don't have any idea how he compared BULGOGI to heaven,,hehehe, Oh! well am quite interested but the other ingredients are not much familiar to me so I need more tutorial to the seeker of this dish.....




USE VEGETABLES THE RIGHT WAY



Fruits and vegetables have since time immemorial formed an important part of man’s diet. Vegetarian food is advisable for all sorts of people, for children, mothers, pregnant women and for men too. Vegetables supply ample and essential nutrients. The fibre in vegetables help resist heart problems, cancer and diabetes. The vegetable plucked fresh daily from the garden and cooked are not only fresh and tasty but all the more nutritious. That is perhaps why people long back used to say that keep the pot of water to boil and then go out to pluck the vegetables from the garden. Wash the vegetables clean before cutting them. Washing the vegetable pieces after they are cut cause them to lose many essential minerals and vitamins which get washed away with the water. It is always better to cook the vegetables by putting them in boiling water. This helps to retain their original taste and prevents loss of essential minerals. It is always better to cook the vegetable unpeeled. Most of the vital nutrients in vegetables lie just beneath the skin. Cut the vegetables just before they are cooked. Steamed vegetables are the most nutritious. This helps save fuel too.

01. To refresh dried up vegetables, soak them in cold water for one hour. To the water add a few drops of lemon juice.

02. While cooking cabbage, a rich supplement of vitamin D, to get rid of the undesirable odour of the vegetables, add a few drops of lemon juice.

03· Do not throw away the outer leaves of the cabbage. These leaves contain a lot of nutrients which improve body resistance.

04· Keep the cauliflower pieces immersed in warm water to which a few drops of vinegar have been added. This helps kill the white colour worms usually found in cauliflower.

05· To retain the colour of cauliflower while cooking, add two dessert spoons of milk.

06· To test whether mushrooms are safe to be eaten, boil the mushrooms with 4-5 garlic pods in water. If the water turns black after sometime, the mushrooms are poisonous.

07· To prevent the slipperiness while frying the lady's finger, add 2 dessert spoons of curd or buttermilk before frying.

08· While cutting vegetables with stains like brinjal and raw bananas cut the pieces into water to which buttermilk, lemon juice or turmeric powder have been added.

09· Adding one teaspoon of vinegar to water in which potatoes are to be boiled, helps retain their original colour after cooking.

10· Vegetables like potatoes, sweet potatoes and beetroot should be peeled only after they are boiled. The boiled potatoes should be mashed/cut only after they cool well. Boiled potatoes mashed when they are hot turn watery when sauted with onions in oil.

11· The “koorka” (Chinese Potato) can be peeled easily by soaking the min water and then beating them on a rough surface properly tied up in a jute sack.

12· Onions can be stored for a longer period of time by storing them in flat trays/baskets where they can be spread out. Be sprouting of button onions can be prevented by drying the for sometime in the sun before storing.

13· Adding 3-4 drops of vinegar while cooking greenpeas helps retain their green colour.

14· Tomatoes can be skinned fast by showing them to the fire by means of a fork and then immediately immersing them in cold water. This way, the peel comes off on its own.

15· Curry leaves can be retained fresh for a longer time by tying them up in a banana leaf and sprinkling water.

16· Vegetables remain fresh for longer time if they are stored in plastic bags with both ends nipped off in the refrigerator.

17· For dishes which require lots of onions chop them and steam them before sauting in oil. This way, lesser oil will be required.

18· To lessen the bitterness of the bitter gourd, wash it in water with which rice has been washed
