Peppers are very nutritious and healthy. They can protect us against many chronic diseases. They are an excellent source of vitamins, especially vitamin C. I like them in salad the most, but I also like roasted peppers with cheese, fried peppers with eggs, stuffed peppers with meat and rice ... And what about you? Do you like them and how you like them the most?

"Jenga" I was at a toy store with my son when he chose this toy. At first it seemed to me that it wouldn't be so interesting toy for him, but he insisted to buy it. Now I understand why. The game is great. It's called "Jenga". It is a block-balancing game. You should slide out blocks one by one, and place them on top of the stack, but you shouldn't let the tower fall. There are many benefits to playing Jenga, which include improving manual dexterity, hand-eye coordination,…

More than just a movie A few weeks ago, I watched one movie at the cinema and that is currently the most popular movie in my country. Remember this fact "at the cinema", because it is important. That movie is called „Toma“, directed by Dragan Bjelogrlic. It is about one man who was a very popular singer in my country due to 1970s and 1980s years. He is not only remembered for his songs, but also as a bohemian in his behavior and his soul. Ha had a specific and unique way for…

When my son woke up this morning he said that he wants to eat sandwiches for breakfast. I decided to make not just ordinary sandwiches and he helped me. He was drawing with ketchup and had a great fun. If you want to make this sandwiches you will need bread, milk, ham, ketchup, gouda cheese, a mixture of eggs and sour cream and oregano. Then you have to bake them for 10 minutes and that's it. What are you preparing for breakfast today?

Your unique face It is truly fascinating how among so many people around the world, each has their own face that is different from the others. That is the first thing that we should have on our mind, if we come to situation where we compare ourselves with other people. Comparing is pointless because we are all different and unique. That is a very important reason for respecting yourself. **Do you like your face?** You shoud like your face because... Your face never lies.…

Currently the most popular movie in my country is "Toma". It has a great emotional impact and whole my country is crying because of that movie. 😊 My favourite quote from that movie is "it doesn't matter how long life lasts, but it is important how much life we put into each of our days“. I wrote an article about that movie on read cash. Here is a link if you want to read it. https://read.cash/@Jelena/more-than-just-a-movie-ec701046 photo: https://sr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki

We meet different people who become our neighbors, colleagues and sometimes we feel that we don't need them and that we would feel better if we…
