FIREWORKS CELEBRATING 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF KUWAIT'S CONSTITUTION

A spectacular fireworks show costing 4 million Kuwaiti dinars (15 million U.S. dollars) was held on Saturday 10 November 2012 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Kuwait's constitution. The fireworks show lasted little over an hour and the amazing part was it was non-stop, giving everyone a unique and magical experience. It was a record breaking feat, that entered Kuwait in the Guiness book of world records. These are shots are from the video I took so they are not too clear. We were in zone 6 at the waterfront extension near TGI Friday.  




BELL PEPPERS (CAPSICUM) STUFFED WITH RICE AND VEGETABLES

I saw these absolutely fresh green attractive bell peppers (capsicum) while I was at Lulu Hypermarket in Qurain and I just had to pick them. They were so inviting. Bell peppers are totally nutritious for health.  I made something I totally love -Bell pepper stuffed with rice, vegetables, drizzled with home made salsa sauce, topped it with shredded mozerella cheese and baked it in the oven.  They turned out tasting great.




LOVE IS - UNEXPECTED SURPRISE

The other day my husband came home with a small basket of flowers and yes I was delighted with his surprise gift. My hubby never ceases to surprise me...when I least expect.

RELAX WITH A CUP OF BLACK TEA WITH MINT AND GINGER

A wonderful way to relax or de-stress on a cold evening is to have a cup of black tea with mint and chopped ginger. The picture I took is of what my husband prepared. Pour boiling water in cup with slightly less than 1/4 tsp of tea leaves. Add freshly chopped ginger and generous amount of mint leaves, say 6 to 8 leaves. When we make black tea with herbs or spices, we don't use any sugar. Let it seep for few minutes and enjoy. You can add natural brown sugar if you wish.
