I’m so addicted to this exercise video I found. I was looking for more free Ellen Barrett online when I came across this…..


5 out of 5 stars

So is it possible that I only love it because I grew up watching korean music videos as a small child with my mom and find this both nostalgic and hilarious? maybe. But it’s also a pretty good work out 🙂 It’s not very high intensive but is a pretty good calisthenics workout of the arms, legs, and core. Not too many repetitions and only 30 minutes. And it’s fun! It’s like being in a music video! Try it! It’s free and fun! If you look at hanguozhengduoyan other you tube videos you will find other ones to try too, but this one in particular is my favorite. I only found one that I didn’t like because the dubbing of the numbers was off which made the workout a little confusing ;p.

stuffed tomatoe

It’s only the beginning of june and it’s already time to break out the crockpot and clothes drying line because it’s HOOOT!!!! This dish would have probably been much prettier if cooked in the oven but it’s just as tasty out of the crock pot and doesn’t heat up the whole house.

Kumquaty Stuffed Tomato & Eggplant

10 italian tomatoes
6 indian eggplant ( so cute and small 🙂 )
3 lbs italian bulk sausage
1 bell pepper diced
1/2 onion diced.
salt
garlic powder

Cook sausage through breaking it up into small pieces. Once halfway cooked add bell pepper and onions and cook til softened. Set aside and let cool. Cut a hole in the top of the tomatoes and pull out seeds and flesh and put into bottom of crock pot. Set aside cored tomatoes. Cut stem off eggplant and cut a “x” in the bottom of the eggplant 3/4 way through. Cut out some of the flesh of the eggplant and put in bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle a little salt and garlic powder over tomato and eggplant in crock pot. Place tomatoes and eggplant into crock pot alternating cut side up. Fill with cooled sausage mixture. sprinkle any remaining sausage that won’t fit into tomato and eggplant cavities overtop. Cook on low in crockpot for 4-6 hours.
