 Melons are now at our local supermarket, sweet and succulent for the hot summer months. I like to use wax paper instead of plastic wrap (plastic sticks to the melon spoils faster). The wax paper keeps the Mellon fresh and refrigerator order free. I tuck and wrap the wax paper around the melon. View picture

Quick stir fry- Our family loves to go out to Chinese food restaurant. I make a stir fry for a fraction of the price it would cost to go out to a Chinese food restaurant. 

 Here is the recipe:

• one pound of flank steak (or your choice of meat)
• 3 tablespoon soy sauce or you can use oyster sauce( Iprefer oyster sauce)
• 2 garlic clove, minced
• one tablespoon of cornstarch
• 1/4 cup of water
• one beef bouillon cube, mashed
•  sliced the following;green beans, cabbage, carrots, colorful sweet pepper, and one onion

• 1.Slice the meat thin and in a bowl and add soy sauce or oyster sauce and garlic
• 2. add beef and toss until well coated marinate for 35 min or more.
• 3. In small cup combine cornstarch, water and bouillon.
• 4. In a large skillet or wok (I prefer to use) heat oil until hot but not smoking.
• 5. add beef and cook, until not pink.
• 6.Take out the beef  and place it in a bowl.
•  Add oil to pan to stir fry onions  and sliced veggies (do not over cook veggies) until tender and still crunchy .
• 7. Add beef and  cook a few minutes longer
• 8. Stir in cornstarch mixture and cook one more minute  
• Server over hot rice-servers 4 people.

I love to collect tea cups- when I travel I like to look for tea cups at thrifts stores. Many time I find vintage fine china tea cups at a fraction of the price.

Do you like jello? Here is an easy way to cut the calories in half with our adding artificial sweeteners.

I add unflavored jello to a regular jello package. Follow the directions on the box. For the unflavored jello you add one cup of hot water and one cup of cold water. You will not miss the extra sugar-it is still sweet. Instead of of 80 calories to 1/2  cup , it is 40 calories to a 1/2 cup. Happy eating!
