I was over the moon when Divina of Sense & Serendipity asked if I would be a guest blogger for her blog. Actually, I did panic a little as I have little knowledge of healthy foods. So this was a real challenge for me and one that I wanted to do well.
Some of you may find Divina quite familiar. She was my first guest blogger while I was away in Bali and crafted this beautiful post – Pineapple Quinoa with Goji Berries and Arugula. Her blog is full of yummy but nutritional recipes. Her stories are heart warming and she has always been supportive not only to me but many other bloggers.
Currently, she is on the 28 day Real Food Challenge. This challenge is designed to:”
“Introduce newcomers to the principles behind a wholesome, nourishing diet and to reinvigorate the energy of those who’ve been practicing traditional foods for a while, we’ll meet our goals one day at a time throughout the entire month. Learn how to stock your pantry, how to source wholesome foods, how to reduce costs, hot to mitigate antinutrients naturally present in certain foods and how to improve your diet step-by-step through nourishing, real food. Simple as it is, the 28-day challenge is designed to walk you through a transition into real food one step at a time.”
You can click here to follow her journey.
For my first guest blog, I wanted to do something a little special. I wanted to use something from our little garden and so I waited for this month to guest blog. It was a pity that the tomatoes were not ready but at least the rest of my herbs were flourishing. And also I wanted to share the secret to bouncy fishcakes or fish balls. So please head over to Divina of Sense & Serendipity and check out my guest post and recipe and my first video that I’ve made.
Thanks again Divina for the opportunity to guest blog. Till the next time I hope
Do you have a favourite all time recipe to share? Please!












Penny, thanks for the introduction. I am honestly 2 days behind my challenge but will catch up soon. I’m going to look for some local fish and do this fish cakes. I never had good fish cakes lately and this method truly helps. And we need more videos from you. Some Asian recipes really do need some videos. And this is not your last guest post for me, okay. HUGS.
thanks Dvina! It has been so much fun doing this. And happy to guest post again.
How very cool Penny! I’m off to check out Divina’s site now!
