Easy, 3-Ingredient Ginger Soda

Although I love to eat, I hate to cook. Or so I thought.

Easy, 3-Ingredient Ginger Soda

I hate rigid recipes that involve exact amounts, exact cooking times and temperatures, special tools, a million ingredients and complicated techniques. I do not have the patience to wait for a cake to be baked, I will open the oven too soon and eat it before it is done. Also, I can not be bothered with the clean up afterwards.

Good to have that out of the way; I am not a chef.

However, I have been enjoying hanging out in the kitchen lately, making stuff that is impossible to screw up, cooking up the type of things for which you only need one pot and one spoon, that don't require much cooking time and include ingredients that you can just sprinkle around and eyeball the amounts added. Uncomplicated, simple things.

In that line, here is a quick 3-ingredient fizzy drink that I have been sipping on featuring my favorite jungle-spice: ginger. Also, not unimportant, it looks really really really elegant.

Ingredients

/ Ginger
/ Honey
/ Sparkling water
/ Ice cubes (optional)

Chop up a large chunk of ginger, blend it together with a big scoop of honey and a little bit of water until the mixture has the consistency of a syrup. Add three tablespoons of your freshly made ginger syrup in a cup, add an ice cube, and pour over some sparkling water.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
