We live in such a fast paced world. ‘An eye for an eye’ or ‘the strongest wins and survives’ , that’s what we usually say in situations when we need to face battles to survive. Living isn’t easy, and yes the strongest do win. But what about the weak ones? What happens to them? Don’t they, at times lose their sanity when they feel that they can no longer fight what life’s throwing at them? Don’t some of them chose to end their suffering by taking their own life?

Photography is not my only hobby. Before I turned into photography, it was cooking that I love to do. Let me rephrase that, I still love to cook! I love standing in the middle of my kitchen and experiment on ingredients, coming up with my own recipes or simply let my many cookbooks help me out with my cooking. Nobody taught me how to cook unlike my siblings who were all trained by either my grandmother or mother. Unfortunately, I live thousand of miles away from any of my family member who can teach me to cook so I have to discover everything by myself. You might not believe this but even using salt in the beginning was not easy. I had to learn how to use it correctly to give my food just the right taste. Let’s face it, without salt, everything is bland, no taste…nobody will eat bland tasting preparation.
Let me talk a bit about salt, if you don’t mind. I think this simple salt that gives our food taste is amazing. The world’s oldest known food additive. Not only that it contributes its own basic “salty” taste, salt brings out natural flavors and makes foods acceptable, protects food safety by weakening the growth of spoilage microorganisms, salt also gives proper texture to processed foods, it also serves as a control agent to regulate the rate of fermentation in food processing, provides the color, aroma and appearance consumers expect and is used to create the gel necessary to process meats and sausages. And these are just some of salt usage. have you ever heard of flavored salt? Flavored salts are natural salts offered by SaltWorks which I recently discovered. This company gather salt from all over the globe, from the Dead Sea to Brittany to France just to bring clients the widest possible variety of authentic, high-quality sea salts. These salts are also called gourmet salts which are available to use in your home, just like the way they are used in top restaurants. I give you an example. Have you heard of Black Salt or otherwise called Kala Namak? Black salt is an unrefined mineral salt. It is actually a pearly pinkish gray rather than black, and has a strong, sulfuric flavor. This is best used in authentic Indian cooking.
There are many gourmet salt available at SaltWorks, so if you’re like me who enjoys experimenting in the kitchen, I suggest you check out the site for more details. You will surely learn and enjoy their flavored salt.
After hearing from a good girl friend of mine that paintball is such a fun way to get your adrenalin going, I can’t help but be curious and browse about it on the internet as I’m not a fan of guns and with paintball they use spyder paintball guns among other brands of guns.
I found out that it’s an exhilarating game. My friend is on her early forties and mom to four kids but she truly enjoys this game, she often tells me. You can imagine my surprise when she told me the first time that she ‘plays with gun’ when playing paintball. Since I wasn’t aware what this game was my jaw almost fell to the ground upon hearing it. But her explanation of the game convinced me that it’s a safe, fun game.
I just don’t know if this game is for me though. I’m such a dork and I’m afraid I’ll be shot even before the game starts!
