Eggplant Parmigiana

My first attempt at creating this delicious dinner. I saw the recipe on "The Chew" and I had to try it out. It's a simple recipe and easy to execute. Once you have assembled all the ingredients and soften the eggplant in a pan just slip it in the oven for 20 mins and go about your day. Very delicious and fast, definitely going to make this for dinner again.

Steeping mint leaves with my tea master

Today was an extremely long and tiring day, it started from 9am to 7pm. The crowded hallways and buses can take a toll on you. I am just glad to be home so i can eat and sleep.

 On long days when I need to unwind or chilly nights like tonight (the weather is 3 degrees - fall weather!) I like to throw some herbal loose tea into my Teaopia tea master and let it brew for 7 minutes then enjoy. One of the best things my brother ever bought my mom. My mom is avid tea drinker, she loves her tea which is where my siblings and I gained our love of tea. Now you know about my love of tea and what I do for fall and winter.  I like to cuddle up in my fleece throw with a warm cup of tea and watch GLEE or Modern Family. 

P.S. Can't wait for GLEE and Modern Family it starts this week!!

Steeping some fresh mint leaves from my garden

Feta watermelon salad

Its been a scorcher in Toronto as we have been going through a heat wave with weather that feels like 40 degrees for the past 3 days. 

The best part it's time for shorts and pool its officially SUMMER!  

So to help deal with the heat i made this feta watermelon salad (watermelons are my all time fav fruit especially for summer!) in this salad all i have is green onions, mint, red vinegar, watermelon and feta cheese. The watermelon is the sweet and juice of the salad, the cheese adds the salt and the mint and onions finish it off. Its a wonderfully mix of flavours, i didn't know how this would taste but it really taste good and i usually am not one to have fruits in a salad. This is a healthy choose if your ever craving sweets and not only that its refreshing as well. 

Summer T.V Land

Some times when I'm just lazy or tired I end up infront the T.V ready to watch some shows or sports.
Summer is the time when there are new series coming out and my current fav show is Pretty Little Liars for those who have seen the show know what it's about and those that don't here a synopsis:
The show is based on a series of books by Sara Shepard and basically what it's about is: there is the most popular clique in town then suddenly one day the leader Alison goes missing. A year later they find her body buried in her own backyard, now her 4 best friends now have a problem on their hands. All their most inportant, confidental secrets are coming out for the public to know and they must discover who it is and fast before they are all exposed. They get blackmailed and bothered through text messages etc, by a person named "A".

I really like the show it's better then gossip girl in my opinion(then again i rarely watched it) kinda like a desprete housewives for teens. I watch this along with my summer favs like Wipeout, America's Got Talent and So you think you can dance etc.

BTW>>> I CANT WAIT FOR VAMPIRE DIARIES TO START AGAIN AND GLEE!!!

I know I'm really bad with the t.v :P
