I made the most delicious meal tonight! Sauteed tamari kale and grilled sesame ginger shrimp, with leftover risotto on the side. It was so delicious! For the kale, I heated a saucepan with a little olive oil, lightly tossed in the kale cut in strips and let cook. At the end, I added a bit of tamari sauce, chilis powder and sesame seeds.

For the shrimp, I coated the shrimp in Lawry’s Sesame Ginger marinade and some chilis powder and grilled on the Foreman until ready.

The risotto was from Trader Joe’s. I followed the box instructions.

Here’s a close up of the kale and shrimp. Nom nom nom.

I have finally found a natural lip balm that I like. My lips really like petroleum. Everything else seems to dry them out. I have tried a number of Burt’s Bees products, and nothing seemed to work. The original would turn my lips blue. Yes, blue. The tinted was OK but sometimes I don’t want to tint my lips. I even tried the honey-based variety. Still the same problem. Dry. Lips.

At Walgreens the other day, I discovered the Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil. Perfect. I like pomegranate. It goes on smooth, tastes/smells nice and I don’t feel like I have to reapply as often as other brands. Yay! Moisture

This takes care of #24 on my eco-wishlist.
