Brighten Salads With Bell Peppers - Creative Monday Blog Hop


       I like bell peppers also known as sweet peppers and sometimes cook different dishes with them as I find that they have a lot of flavour.  Recently I got some and decided to use two of them in my vegetable salad.  I just like how they brightened up the salad. 

Method
1.  Grate a cabbage and 3 carrots
2.  Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar and 1 dessertspoon of sugar.
3. Toss
4.  Cut strips of Bell Peppers and decorate your salad. I used them to form the shape of a flower.

Question Time

      Every weekend I will have a blog post where I ask and answer questions.  It is a good way for readers to get  to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  At what time of the day do some of your best blogging and freelance writing ideas come to mind?  While they come at different times of the day many come at night time when I am about to fall asleep.  Unfortunately at times I am too tired to get up and write them down and sometimes forget a few by the time I wake up.



    As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by Create With Joy where the theme this week is Summer Fun. Do you prefer to be indoors or outdoors on  a hot summer day? I prefer to be indoors.  At times the heat is unbearable outside.  Pool side or park picnic - which invitation sounds more appealing?  Pool side!  I can't get in the pool  though as I can't swim! :) What summer activity do you dream of the most? Visiting certain areas of Jamaica and seeing nature beating the heat. Earlier this week I got a chance to be in the popular tourist resort of Ocho Rios. I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful flowers and environment. I also did some shopping.

Bird Figurine Series - # 49

  What time is dinner time for you?!  Well, it is usually around 6 p.m. at our home.  Janine and I have never used this cute dinner bell featuring birds to signal dinner time. Instead it takes pride of place in our  living-room.  Nevertheless at times I do ring it and enjoy the sound. Just this week I enjoyed ringing it a few times while the Scarlet Macaw wind chime that I featured last week was making sweet sounds!:)

Question Time

      Every weekend I will have a blog post where I ask and answer questions.  It is a good way for readers to get  to know more about me and also helps me to get feedback on a number of questions.  There are times when one comes across an item in a particular colour and can't resist buying it.  Has this happened to you recently?  Well, I could not pass the pair of sandals below. I think it is in such a pretty shade of green.  Green is one of my favourite colours.
    As usual I am participating in Friendship Friday hosted by  Create with Joy where the theme this week is What makes you smile?  When you are sad or having a rough day, what do you do to bring a smile to your face? Well, this theme has come on one of those days for me!  I meditate, do Yoga exercises, chat with friends and relatives, keep busy and of course blog!

Bird Figurine Series - # 48

   We have been experiencing some windy days and I say " Blow wind blow and cool me down as long as it is not a storm or hurricane!"  Another thrill is to hear this Scarlet Macaw chime.  I have had it for many years. Janine and I always moved it to different places at our home just to hear the chimes!
