I’m a creature of habit when it comes to certain

I’m a creature of habit when it comes to certain eating patterns, and having a fresh fruit after my meals is one of them. My go-to option is almost always the kiwifruit because it comes in the perfect size, is practically the simplest fruit to eat - just cut and scoop, and because we have it at home most of the time (thanks to my brother who buys them weekly!).

Added bonus: this power rocket of a fruit is naturally high in Vitamin C. It’s the vitamin we hear most about, but we forget how important it is.

Our daily dose of Vitamin C is important because it
- supports our immune & nervous system,
- has antioxidant properties to protect our cells,
- is involved in collagen formation,
- and supports iron absorption too

Vitamin C cannot be stored in the body, so you need it in your diet every day, and all you need is 𝐨𝐧𝐞 Zespri Kiwifruit a day in order to meet your daily needs 🥝 And if you worry about blood glucose levels, kiwifruits are a low GI food so it will not lead to blood sugar spikes.

@ZespriSG is running a competition where all you have to do is post a close-up photo of a delicious-looking Zespri SunGold or Green Kiwifruit creation.

Recipe alert! This blueberry crumble cake is prett

Recipe alert! This blueberry crumble cake is pretty darn good. Oblige me for this moment of self-praise because getting 𝐯𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧 desserts right is no easy feat - I’ve got so much admiration for vegan bakers out there!

I made this super easy 3-layer 𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 with @nutrisoysingapore’s new 100%-plant fresh soy milk, some baking pantry staples, and frozen blueberries.

I’ve been drinking NutriSoy for the past couple of years and really like the creamy consistency, and the fact that they're available across a range of sugar levels to suit most needs. It is a good source of protein, is high in calcium and Vitamin D which are all 100% plant derived, making it a fully vegan product.

Vitamin D is important in maintaining bone mineralisation, and plays a role in absorbing calcium from our diet; however for our vegan friends out there, getting enough Vitamin D through the diet can be challenging as the few foods that contain Vitamin D are of animal origin (oily fish, liver, eggs). So aside from obtaining Vitamin D by heading out into the sunlight ☀️, including NutriSoy’s soy milk in one’s diet would be useful too.

P.S. 2 servings of NutriSoy Fresh Soya Milk meets your daily requirement of Vitamin D for adults in Singapore.

Get #Down4Earth with me 🤘🏼 …and my jars!

Get #Down4Earth with me 🤘🏼
…and my jars!

Lol we just had to feature them here because as most of you may know by now, I’m not a fan of throwing glass jars away (normal/recycling bin) when they can be reused pretty much indefinitely! Sometimes I feel silly posting about my jar/cardboard box giveaways on my IG stories, but it always surprises me how quickly they get snatched up! It’s great to see more people involved in promoting a more circular economy where we reuse and repurpose as much as we can so virgin resources don’t need to be used up. If you’re looking for other platforms where you can give things away/make a call for pre-loved items, check out ‘1st Dibs Zero Waste’ on FB (that’s where I got one of my compost bins from) and the free section on Carousell. I gotchu #greenlobangqueen 😉

The greatest danger to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it - Robert Swan, OBE

It may sound cliché, but I do think it is true. So get #Down4Earth - not just today or when you feel like it, but choose one action to commit to making a habit out of, and repeat.

Back when I was on radio hosting Your Evening Esca

Back when I was on radio hosting Your Evening Escape, my co-hosts and I would wish our listeners a specific occasion based on a random calendar we found online. Today 2nd June happens to be Leave the Office Earlier day lol! We definitely would’ve had a field day talking about this one - so in-line with the theme of the show 😜 cc: @timothygo_ @justinemoss @dcheng1508 @catc0r. With the current semi-lockdown I notice a lot of my friends and clients working late into the night, so I hope that by the time YOU read this, you would’ve clocked out and started unwinding! 😊

I really like heading out to the parks to catch some sunlight (vit D!) and greenery, even if it’s for a sun-down stroll. Chilling out in @onepuram’s Lawtan co-ord. The top has a crop at the front and a longer back that is frilled, and the pants is worn high-waisted which I find really flattering. They’re made from #Tencel which is known to have a low ecological impact*, and they’ve just launched in Singapore not long ago so go check out their stuff at @onepuram and @zerrin_com!
