I can't do it all, therefore I spend more time on the things I am able to do and less time crying over things that I have no control over.   S. L. Cousins

Live life!                             

My Life's Recipe:  2 eyes of inspiration; 1 mind filled with big dreams; 1 relentless attitude; 1 spirit of humilty; 1 heart running over with Love and compassion; Immeasurable faith; Infinite kindness; Endless gratitude; 1 voice of laughter; and a definitive purpose in life. Will dish out a meal of Endless Possibillities!

Shaniqua's top 5 cooking tips: 

1. Eat a small snack before cooking.  This will limit the desire to snack while you’re cooking.

2.  Planning your meals for the week, limits trips to the grocers and will help you keep supplies handy. (Told to me by a good friend, Matthew)

3.  Never prepare food in a kitchen filled with clutter and dirty dishes.  Not only is it not sanitary, but it could cause a cook to feel unorganized and distracted.

4.  Don’t be afraid to try new things.  And don’t be afraid to mess up, it’s ok.  Just try and try again!

5.  Think of cooking as nourishment for the mind, body, and soul.  The bottom line about cooking is that you have to enjoy it or it just becomes this dreaded chore.
