Today's menu: pea soup with carrot and celery, plus oven toasted bread lightly drizzled with truffle olive oil, followed by a hot cup of peppermint tea. Yummy and amazingly easy to put together.

Mariana Miguel posted a blog post6.8.10
Finally, Friday. I'll have a couple of easier days before I'm back to a hectic week of work (away from home).Today, I managed to get home at around 6.30pm. I contemplated the idea of going to the beach for a 30' walk, but ended up stuck in front of the computer. However, before I turned the computer on, I did a load of laundry and put away some clothes. While I was doing that, I noticed my closet was too full - meaning I had hidden clutter in there. I straightened my closet a little bit and…See More
A blog post by Mariana Miguel was featuredInternet detox
I finally got down to doing a full-week internet detox. Not by sheer willpower unfortunately - I had a nasty stomach bug and almost landed in the hospital so turning the computer on was out of question. However, I have to say that if I knew the results were so good, I would have done it before willingly!I am one of those people who check their email countless times in a day and I completely lose track of time when using the internet, day after day. I receive tons of emails every day and not…See More
Shayna commented on Mariana Miguel's blog post 'The first step'"I know what you mean - sometimes, it can be hard to find time and motivation. I used to find all the excuses I could, but I finally broke down and got myself a yoga mat. Ever since, I've been looking for all sorts of new poses and practicing…"
Mariana Miguel commented on Mariana Miguel's blog post 'The first step'"You're so right, Shayna. Yoga is really beneficial for those people (myself included) who need to wind down and re-focus. I started practicing yoga when I was 5 or 6 years old, but as time passed by I stopped making time for it - I was too…"
Shayna commented on Mariana Miguel's blog post 'The first step'""Better late than never" - so true! It's good that you've found time to integrate yoga into your life; it's such a beneficial practice, especially in such a hectic world. It's nice to be able to open yourself up and…"

Mariana Miguel commented on Terri Trespicio's blog post 'Do It! Declutter. It's So Satisfying.'"To avoid spending precious minutes in my morning trying to fish the pair of the earring I feel like using, I just "attach" them together, by inserting one earring into its pair's back, as shown in the picture:

Mariana Miguel posted a blog postStarting over
After a few rough weeks, I started feeling as if I had completely fallen off the "Whole Living bandwagon". I even had my first flu in years! Well, it's never too late to start over, is it?So, today, when I managed to get off my bed, I bought some vitamins and logged on the Whole Living Community to see the rules for week 1. I've found some menus online that'll help me eat 5 portions of (different) fruits and veg a day and I've already put together a shopping list for when I go grocery shopping…See More
Mariana Miguel commented on Leah Gross's blog post 'Goodbye, Candy. It's Been Nice Knowing You.'"A courgette is the same as a zucchini. Is that any clearer?"
Mariana Miguel commented on Leah Gross's blog post 'Goodbye, Candy. It's Been Nice Knowing You.'"Ops, sorry, Leah. I didn't realize you didn't eat meat. My bad! May I recommend Nigella's courgette fritters to make up for my blunder yesterday?"

Cleaning products
Posted on July 18, 2010 at 7:30pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
I was reading one of the pledges here - Reevaluate your cleaning products - and it got me thinking how many cleaning products I own.
In the bathroom I've got a toilet bowl cleaner - the one with the funny tip on the bottle so you can squirt it right under the rim - and a powdered one for scrubbing the sink. In the kitchen I've got dishing washing liquid - obviously, a creamy cleaner for shining my sink and an orange-scented cleaning product for greasy surfaces - hello…
