Have a Better Life

An important part of decoration besides furniture, rugs or even decorative objects is finding the right decoration for our windows.

When I bought my first house, I bought cloth curtains for all the rooms in the house. My room had white curtains with salmon color shades, this was very fashion at the time. When I moved to my present house I was already tired of the shades and I removed them.

I still have cloth curtains all over the house although most people I know have blinds in some rooms. Blinds are quite fashionable now and they really make a room look nice.

Cloth curtains or blinds the choice must be made according to our taste and the room utility. A home office for sure will look great with blinds but for a bedroom I prefer cloth curtains.

It’s time for another Light Recipe. High temperatures and good weather (at least here in Portugal) make us want easy, light and fresh recipes that’s why this week I choose a healthy salad.

I found this EatingWell Power Salad at the EatingWell website.

This recipe is very easy to prepare, it only takes 10 minutes to be ready, ingredients are very easy to find and we usually have them at home, no fat ingredients so…let’s cook for the family.

• 6 cups mixed salad greens
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
• 1/4 cup dressing, such as Creamy Dill Ranch Dressing (recipe follows)
• 10 cherry tomatoes
• 4 slices roast turkey breast, cut up (3 ounces)
• 2 slices reduced-fat Swiss cheese, cut up (2 ounces)

Toss greens, carrots, onion and dressing in a large bowl until coated. Divide between 2 plates. Arrange tomatoes, turkey and cheese on top of the salad.
