Milo Cake With Milo Glaze (Eggless)

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I must confess, I’m not exactly a master baker. My baking ventures are rare and usually happen only when I have a bit of time to spare. I bake not to dazzle, but to satisfy my curiosity about whether baking really is as remarkable as some enthusiasts claim. It’s always better to discover things for ourselves rather than relying solely on others’ opinions. So, without any need for proving anything to anyone, let’s see if this Milo Cake with Milo Glaze (Eggless) can stand on its own (SUJEE CAKE & CLASSIC, MARBLE LEMON BUTTER CAKES)

 

This recipe isn’t originally mine; I stumbled upon it while browsing through instructables. Unlike some of my past baking experiments from the internet that ended in disaster, this one seemed promising. I opted for Milo instead of cocoa powder - mainly because that tin of Milo has been languishing in my pantry for ages, and it felt like the perfect time to put it to good use, especially since we’re more of a coffee-drinking household.

Easy Avocado Yogurt Dip Recipe

Avocados are common these days that even my local hypermarket has them, and at just RM5.00 each, they’re a real bargain! I used to be so obsessed that I’d buy six at a time and eat them raw until I needed a change. So, I started experimenting and came up with some exciting new ways to enjoy avocados. Enter the Avocado Yogurt Dip - perfect with crackers, raw veggies, and a fantastic addition to salads (TASTY VEGETARIAN MUTTON RECIPES).

They say an avocado a day keeps the bland meals away! Packed with healthy fats, fiber, vitamins like E and K, and minerals like potassium and magnesium, avocados are a great addition to any diet. But since they’re calorie-dense, moderation is key. As Ms. Nava always says, “Everything in moderation - never overdoing it to avoid health consequences.”

A business trip brought me to Chiang Mai, Thailand, where amidst meetings and engagements, I seized the opportunity (EXPLORING KRABI & PHUKET) to explore both Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Despite my limited time, I managed to visit some sights in these Thai cities. 

CHIANG MAI

Founded in 1383, this temple holds deep historical significance in Thai Buddhism. Legend has it that a sacred white elephant chose the site by circling the area and trumpeting thrice before lying down, indicating its suitability for construction (SURAKARTA HEARBEAT).

Cantonese Yee Mee: Chinese Style Noodles Simplified

Let's skip the stories and dive straight into Seafood Yee Mee. The key to this dish lies in the stock (TOM YUM SOUP VARIETIES). Once you have a good stock, everything else falls into place. Here’s how you can prepare the essential stocks.

Vegetable Brown Stock

For a vegetarian option, which also works for Seafood Yee Mee, you can make a vegetable brown stock. Sauté carrots, oyster mushrooms, onion and garlic in some butter or oil. Then, add water and let it simmer over low heat to extract the flavors. This creates a rich brown stock.

Best Things To Do in Penang

I've visited Penang seven or eight times now, hopping between hotels in Butterworth like Ixora Hotel, Light Hotel, Pearl View Hotel, Sunway Hotel, and Aroma Hotel, as well as staying in Penang itself at Flamingo Hotel, Rasa Sayang, Equatorial Hotel, and E & O Hotel. When it comes to sightseeing, Penang, famously known as "The Pearl of the Orient," certainly lives up to its reputation.(KOTA KINABALU UNMASKING).

But regardless of my purpose for visiting Butterworth or Penang Island (PENANG THAIPUSAM), there's one activity I never miss: taking the Ferry Ride. Whether I'm crossing into Penang from Butterworth or returning, I've done it about 7 times already, and each time brings a renewed sense of exhilaration. There's a unique serenity to being out on the water, feeling the gentle breeze against my face - it's like a refreshing reset for my breath, mind, body, and soul (PULAU KETAM: SERENE ESCAPE). 

And when it comes to sightseeing, I've had my share of experiences, and let me begin now.

Panty Shopping Made Easy: Your Ultimate Guide

We’ve already explored the variety of panties available (PANTY PICKS), and now it’s time to dive into some practical tips for choosing the perfect pair. Ready to explore? Let's go shopping!

Replenishing
Knowing when to replace your panties is crucial for comfort and hygiene. If your current pairs are loose, faded, or stained, it's time to buy new ones. Some people buy new panties on a whim, while others purchase only when necessary, as and when they feel they should. Ultimately, the decision to replenish your panties should be based on comfort and the condition of your current pairs.

Fashionable and comfortable Popilush Shapewear for a Lifetime of Unforgettable

Many people add the use of shapewear to their daily clothing collection, as they help to find the desired figure in a few seconds by aligning and maintaining the harmony of the body's curves. 

So, your energy for body positivity is fueled by the resources of a dress with built in shapewear for example, because it flatters any size and shape. In general, it is possible to construct many image figures to express personality and sophistication through a more polished appearance. 

Sujee Cake Elegance

The key thing I discovered from a recipe book is the importance of soaking the sujee flour in milk. This softens it, preventing the cake from being grainy and dry.

 

Here are some baking tips:

Baking Tips:

How long should you bake?

The timing depends on the size of your pan – flat or tall. Also, whether you preheat the oven or not makes a difference. Every oven is different; some even bake in a microwave oven. Peek into the oven occasionally, but remember, opening and closing it often reduces the heat, which means the oven needs to rebuild the temperature, affecting the baking time.

Yoga’s Role in Adolescent Mental Health: A Call to Action

Author

Ms. Krishnan N, a Zen entrepreneur in her 60s, founded Nava's Zen at 58. With 22 years as a lecturer, including 13 years in the Curtin University of Technology Perth, Australia Degree Twinning Program, she is now a certified yoga instructor, coach, and counselor. Her expertise enriches her current work.

Abstract

This article explores the potential of yoga as a proactive intervention for addressing mental health challenges among adolescents. Drawing on existing research and qualitative insights, it examines the pressures faced by adolescents today, including academic stress, peer influences, and the impact of social media. Additionally, the pressure to excel and succeed imposed by parents (The Role of Yoga in Adolescent Mental Health), highlighting the multifaceted challenges adolescents navigate in contemporary society.

Yoga, rooted in ancient practices of physical postures, breath control, and meditation, offers a holistic approach to enhancing mental well-being. Evidence suggests that yoga can significantly reduce stress, anxiety, and depression while promoting emotional regulation and overall health.

 

Despite its proven benefits, there remains a lack of awareness and integration of yoga in adolescent health initiatives. This article advocates for increased awareness among parents, educators, and policymakers, emphasizing the role of yoga in supporting adolescent mental health. By fostering a culture of yoga in educational and community settings, we can empower adolescents to navigate life's challenges with resilience and well-being.

Fried Fish with Soy Sauce

While we're on the topic of fish recipes, let me share a few more in a similar cooking style. There's the Malay Style Ikan Kicap Serai, or Lemongrass Soy Sauce Fish, and another, a Chinese Style Vinegar Soy Sauce Fish. Then there's Ginger Chili Soy Sauce Fish, which blends elements of both Chinese and Malay styles. These recipes all feature soy sauce as a key ingredient, alongside popular Malaysian flavors.

Penang Thaipusam: A Journey of Faith and Discovery

Truth be told, the foundation of Hinduism, I’m not your typical holy Hindu or devotee (MASI MAGAM PANGKOR). Performing poojas or hosting prayers at home by inviting a priest is not part of my routine. Fasting and following a vegetarian diet, even on Hindu festivals, are practices of the devout Hindus I know. These individuals have taught many lessons about faith and spirituality despite their contradictions in attitude, character, and behaviors (VARANASI NIGHT PRAYERS & CHANDIGARH MARVELS). 

Still, I had a reason for making a vow, not for myself, but for something else which I prefer not to share. To fulfill this vow by carrying the Paal Kudam (Milk Pot) during Thaipusam, I went to Penang. This was my third time attending the festival, though previously I had only observed the celebrations. This time, it was for the Paal Kudam vow.
