🔴119: Today marks a significant day in my life, as it would have been my mother’s 119th birthday if she had not passed away in 1994. The thought of her not being here is bittersweet. On one hand, I am filled with sadness and missing her presence, but on the other hand, I am grateful for the memories and lessons she left behind. My mother was a strong, kind, and loving woman who, after my father’s death, was left to raise me on her own. Her absence is deeply felt, especially on days like today when we would have gathered to celebrate her special day. This is the obituary that appeared in the local paper.

🔴 LUNCH: I am always on the lookout for quick and easy lunch options, and that’s why I am absolutely in love with my Instapot. It has made my life so much easier. I made a quick and nutritious meal by tossing in three chicken thighs, whole redskin potatoes, peeled and correctly copied carrots, broccoli, and peeled beets into the Instapot with some chicken stock. With just a click of a few buttons, I set the pressure cooking time to twenty-five minutes on high. And just like that, my delicious and healthy lunch was ready to be served. The beauty of my Instapot is that it cooks everything evenly and in no time, allowing us to enjoy a hot meal without any hassle. And, yes, that is the stalk of the broccoli. I peeled it and cooked it because that is where the best flavor is.
