Asian Kale Chips


I never thought I could get my family to love kale until I made kale chips. 
It might sound odd but really, they are easy Kale eater and quick to make and you can season them with your favorite seasonings and it satisfies the salty and crunchy texture that we love from chips.
Both of my girls have enjoyed them no matter what the seasoning.
You can just do a simple salt and pepper seasoning to start and massage the leaves with olive oil. The sky is the limit on the different types of kale chip seasoning you can use so be creative! Here’s my asian kale chips recipe. 
Tamari sauce is a version of soy sauce that has a stronger flavor so less is more. I just bought myself a big jug of it here because I use a lot of soy sauce in my house.This is a fabulous price for the amount and this brand uses NON GMO soy and is gluten free.  
Bon appetite! 
Ingredients
  1. 1 bunch of kale
  2. 2 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 tbsp sesame oil
  4. 1 tbsp tamari sauce (non GMO soy sauce)
  5. 1 clove garlic minced
  6. handful of black sesame seeds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
  2. Rinse kale and put into a large bowl.
  3. Whisk together the olive oil, sesame oil, tamari sauce and garlic clove together.
  4. Drizzle mixture all over kale.
  5. Gently massage each kale leave with the mixture so that each leaf is nicely coated.
  6. Place leaves on baking sheet and cook in the oven for 10 minutes. Cook time could vary depending on the type and thickness of kale. Bake until crispy.

My brother teaches me something

I decided to write my brother a letter last week. While I sat down to write the letter, it dawned on me that there were some words he needed to hear. Chris reminded me that I might be the only person in the world that understands him because of experiencing the same childhood. First, I told him I was proud of him for working hard to stay out of trouble and keep a job. These are words that we both long to hear from our parents. Our desire to hear these words from them pushed us to act in two very different ways. Second, I told him that I admired him. That might sound strange intiailly but the last time that I saw him was at dinner at my parent's house. Before he left, he leaned down to give a hug to my father who was laying in the recliner. Dad didn't reciprocate, but I can't imagine how much courage and forgiveness had gone through Thomas's heart to be able to do that. I'm shamed to admit that I can only remember hugging my dad 2 times in my adult life. ...

Labor Part 2--Lana's Birth Story

After 36 hours of early labor and the nesting done, we laid down for another nap around 4pm. I woke up earlier than Chris and then finally woke him up around 6:30pm because Dr. Yoon was coming back by to check on me. She did some more acupuncture and as she was leaving, my water broke around 7-7:30pm. We called Michelle, our midwife, back and she was on her way over. Making it through each contraction was priority #1 as the intensity rose significantly after the water broke. Lana had engaged down and it was so painful to lay down so I paced the house and as each contraction came, new coping skills had to be developed so we tried a lot of things. I sat on the exercise ball, I leaned on it on top of the bed, I got in the shower many times and let the hot water fall on my lower back, and I leaned on Chris. I really enjoyed getting in the shower. My friend, Andy arrived around 8pm to bring me an oreo milkshake which I was not in the mood for any longer (although it would come in ha...

Spring

It's hard to believe we've been in TN for almost 10 months. We've just about made it through all the season. I have to admit that it was quite beautiful to experience the fall leaves for more than a day that we might have seen in Charleston. The winter was a rough initiation but I made it. I'm pretty sure I made every attempt not to leave the house, but the snow pretty much helped with that. It seems that the seasons have changed once again overnight. Literally, in one day, the leaves on the tree next to our house have gone from barren to full of green. Bushes and trees are flowering everywhere. There's something so refreshing about spring. While all the seasons are beautiful, spring represents new life. What a perfect time for Lana to arrive!
