Cooking secrets: Lentils & Millet

VIDEO: How to cook an amazing lentil and millet dish…
Top millet secret: toast before you add water or stock (I often make a tasty veg stock myself but if you’re very short on time just use MSG free bouillon cubes).
Top lentil secret: Use LOADS of vegetables and herbs e.g. thyme, rosemary, marjoram and mix your own curry spice mix using cumin, tumeric etc.
And the real secret is COOK IN BULK and freeze some (or vacuum it and put in the fridge) so you have quick meals to choose from in the future… 🙂
Millet: “Whether you want to feel calmer, reduce your risk of breast cancer or type 2 diabetes, millet nutrition is key.” It’s full of nutrients and it’s delicious too. 🙂 If you haven’t tried it, try it!

CELEBRITY SECRET: HOW TO LOOK SEXY & FABULOUS IN SKINNY JEANS
You love the look of blue skinny jeans on your favorite celebrities but you think they won’t be flattering for you?
Let’s face it, for most women there is nothing more traumatic than going to a store to buy jeans!
The problem is, so many women don’t know the celeb style secrets that make looking good in skinny jeans a breeze!
Let’s fix that now! Give the tips and tricks in this article a try and you might find yourself looking fierce & fantastic in a pair of skinny jeans!
DEFNITION: Skinny jeans fit snugly along the entire length of your leg from your hips right down to your ankle. They create the illusion of long, lean legs.
A DARKER WASH
You will find a darker wash to be more slimming and it’s also much more versatile. It can be casual during the day and dressed up for a more sophisticated evening look. If you’re curvy, avoid the distressed look with bleaching, tears etc. because it will make your thighs look bigger. Stick with plain dark wash jeans.
STRETCH
If you go for some stretch in your jeans – Lycra – you will find that they are much more forgiving to your curves. They expand and contract just where they need to.
STYLING:
The key to making skinny jeans work is choosing the most flattering tops and accessories to go with them.
TOP:
- Proportion is crucial when you wear skinny jeans! Don’t go for short or tight tops. Wear a LOOSE, FLOWY TOP – the volume will create a visual balance the tightness of the skinny jeans on the bottom. Dolman sleeve tops, empire waisted blouses, flowy tunics… these will not only balance the skinny jeans but they will also cover your waistline & behind AND not cling to your tummy.
- FITTED JACKET or BLAZER that comes below the hips – this can give your skinny jeans flattering and sophisticated look
- COLOR – Blue skinny jeans can act as a neutral foundation for your whole outfit and so you can add color with your tops.
- If you want to draw the eye away from your hips and thighs, you can accessorize using a big necklace or a fabulous headband.
SHOES
- Fabulous footwear is a must with skinny jeans! Wear with heels because this will extend the lines of your legs in the skinny jeans and make your legs look longer and leaner. The heels will also lift your behind so it will appear even perkier! You can wear flats but if you are curvy, be aware that wearing flats will make you look wider than you are.
BELT – if you have an hourglass shape you want to show off – use a stylish belt at your waist to pull it in.
LENGTH
Go for a little more length in the hem when you’re wearing skinny jeans. A bit of scrunching at the heels is a good thing. It’s stylish and it makes your skinny jeans NOT look like leggings!
When skinny jeans work, they really work. You can become a sexy, skinny jeans siren if you just give these tips a try. I’m here pulling for you.
