Have you tried or learnt something new today? I sure did. I decided for tomorrow party to make hummus from scratch. I’ve never done this before but decided to get out of my comfort zone and just give it a TRY. I followed a recipe I found on the Internet and replaced some of the ingredients. This was the end result:
Some of the things I’ve learn from this experience was:
- Following recipes is not easy. One of the steps was to grind the sesame seeds and I realised I didn’t have the right tools to do this. I just had to improvise and use the blender
- Always use the right ingredients. I found out I accidentally used the wrong oil
- Kids are so much easier to please – when they tried my hummus they actually liked it. For me, all I could taste was the sesame seeds
Below is a summary of today’s main activities, tasks and accomplishments:
- It was a hot day and I still managed to cut the grass
- Purchased a new WordPress template from Themeforest for a new site. I feel really excited about this new site. I purchased a new domain when I went to Hawaii. I was waiting for a payment before purchasing the theme but it hasn’t happened yet and can’t wait for any longer. I basically used the money from the affiliate marketing to pay for this
- Tried making hummus and it turned OK – based on the kids’ feedback
- Managed to remove some old paint (left there from over 10 years ago) and created a video. Here’s the video:
- Cleaned up the house for tomorrow party

Ummmmm – From watching the video I recorded today, I noticed I tend to repeat ummm quite a bit. Especially when I need to think what I’m going to say. The video was not rehearsed and I just went with the flow and improvised. It was an honest video and just wanted to keep it all natural. Maybe I should have recorded another video but from rewatching the recording I’m now more conscious not to say the ummm during sentences.
