Salmon Poke Bowl/Recipe
Description
This easy salmon poke bowl recipe tells you all you need to know about how to make poke, the healthy and delicious traditional Hawaiian meal!
Ingredients
1/4 cup soy sauce
4 tablespoons sesame oil
Juice and zest from one lime
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1/2 pound sushi grade salmon
1 cup cooked white or brown rice
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and cut into chunks
1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
1 small cucumber, peeled and either spiraled or cut into small dice
1 scallion, chopped
sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice and zest and one tablespoon rice vinegar in a medium size mixing bowl. Cut the salmon into bite-sized chunks (discard any skin) and add to the bowl. Mix well, cover the bowl and let the salmon marinate in the fridge for at least one hour and up to 12.
When you are ready to make the bowls, stir one teaspoon of rice vinegar into the cooked rice and divide the rice among two bowls or soup dishes. Scoop the salmon out of the marinade and divide between the two bowls. Do the same with the pineapple, cucumber and avocado.
Sprinkle the bowls with the chopped scallion and sesame seeds, drizzle a little of the salmon marinade over the top and serve at once.

Diabetes, Not Defeat!
By MwsR ❤
As I sit here drinking my coffee as I often do
I find myself thinking of you.
Hard to imagine my life before you came
Since you’ve been here my whole life has changed.
You came like a Lion ready to devour its prey
All I could do was just pray that day.
We have since been closer than almost any other thing.
It’s like we are wed without the wedding ring.
I can’t say I haven’t thought of just leaving you
But I thought by now there’d be a scientific break through.
When I am out and about on the town
You are there right beside me, and I frown.
If I exercise you have to be there making sure that I feel your prescence
Wish sometimes you’d be absent!
To feel what I once felt
To not worry about stretching my belt,
These things have become prominent to me
I wish for the day you would leave me.
If you left I probably would cry
But hey, that would be me saying goodbye.
Tears of joy people would say
That would be a phenominal day!
For now though it’s like a bad twin
You tell me how…I make the when,
I choose to acknowledge you
To understand and fight too.
Diabetes you rule but I tell you how
And without me you have no power now.
Sink or swim is the saying for this disease
Just don’t say “Defeated”, if you please.

Hello Everybody!
I am hoping everyone is faring well. I have been busy doing the usual things like…
Taking care of my cats, my two dogs and my grandkids as well as my kids and husband. I really would not trade those things for anything else, because that is all my life and the things I love the most.
Anyhow…
I hope that everybody is enjoying my webpage still. It seems I am getting more and more onlookers. I have had some come from the internet search , which makes me happy. If you have never tried looking yourself up, you should try it. It is amazing where you show up and what information s being shown about you. Kind of scary though, as well. You never know what kind of crazy people are looking in on you!
So…
I am trying to post daily, seems my three-month preparation has passed now and I am having to write ahead for months to come. That way I never miss posting. It is important, I think, to keep people engaged as well. Comment and message and like people’s writings. It can make all the difference to a person struggling to find a place within this and other communities. I have noticed that not many comment anymore, as they use to on my things. I guess that is just the nature of things. Cannot please everyone and I am not going to beg for anyone to do it. No one should ever have to pry a compliment or comment from this world audience. Just like everything else we do in this world, it is not always going to be noticed or appreciated, or welcomed by all who see. That is totally okay.
Anyhow…
I appreciate those who acknowledge my award, RAKA, and participate. Those who do not acknowledge it, is there a reason for this? I think I make sure to tag people I have nominated and I think this award is fairly simply to participate in. If you know of anything or have a reason for as to why people I nominate do not respond, please let me know. You can email those comments to me. Thanks ahead for any who do.
So…
I just want to wish everyone a good rest of the week and so forth. I hope those who continue to support me, and encourage me, and comment and follow, know how deeply grateful I am for that.
And…
I hope to see and hear from you on THIS SIDE OF THE RAINBOW…

Diabetes In prisons Me/Poem Share
Most people are afraid of “bogey men”, not me
I am afraid of this blinking disease!
When you lay down at night,
I bet there is nothing that gives you fright
For me, that is not the case, you know
I have to be careful not to have a high or low
Because my sugars can change in the blink of an eye.
It is not fair to worry, when you lay down at night.
For you, life is filled with all you can or want to eat
But for me, I have to watch what I eat.
I cannot ever be lost in the woods, oh my
Because without my medication, I can die
I am a prisoner to this disease
It is a silent killer of me
Without proper care or proper medicine
I would not exist, I would serve as a critical lesson.
Something could change in the blink of an eye
You should make the most of each minute, both you and I.
MwsR ❤
