This Lemon Couscous with Grilled Vegetable salad is that kind of a vegetarian dinner that I would not mind having every single night. The combination of lemon couscous with grilled vegetables and feta cheese. This in my book, is positively a 5-star recipe. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Anyone caught the eclipse? I missed it. I was all geared up to catch a glimpse of the eclipse, but my sleepy eyes refused to cooperate. I did manage to catch a whole lot of pictures that people were sharing on Facebook though. What a sight! 🙂
Talking about Facebook….Facebook has made me a judgmental person. There are many times where I have certain questions in my head.
Someone writes a super long post on FaceBook on their mother’s birthday or Mother’s day with the sweetest and most touching messages and then it ends with “I know you would not be reading this” By which they meant their mother is not on Facebook. Someone enlighten me please. If the mother is not reading it, why is the dedication posted on FaceBook again? If you can’t be all sweet in her face, there is such a thing called birthday cards that still exists you know?
Some people on the other hand, would be posting a message on Facebook and tagging the husband/family member, telling him/her to buy something on the way home. What happened to SMS and WhatsApp? Sorry, but there are not many of us who are interested to know if you ran out of onions or garlic.
I am still okay with the 2 situations above, but the upcoming 2… I have to raise my eyebrows.
People whose status scream for attention. At one time an acquaintance posted that she needs someone to talk to and she needed help. A couple of her friends expressed their concern and even I tried to be aunt agony. Her response to all of us were “It’s something personal”. Pardon me, can you just explain to me, If it is on Facebook for the world to discover, how personal can it be? And that too public settings? Please practice the custom settings at least?
Last but definitely the one I that I dislike most. People (somehow mostly ladies) bitching about their mother in law, some relative or even a friend. Girl, if I wanna watch some kinda drama on my timeline, I would rather be watching scandal on tv.
It is sad that at times we tend to evaluate people based on their status on social media.
*Breath in and out*
Let’s move on to more positive things…

I am a huge fan of couscous. I love how it soaks up the flavor of whatever you cook them in. Most of the time I would just saute some aromatics with olive oil, add in some broth for the couscous to cook in.
By the way, have I ever mentioned that I am obsessed with grilled eggplants? If you can’t distinguish from this photo ↓
