Best Christmas Ever

The Big Give

This is by far one of my favourite Christmas so far. Spent my Christmas lunch volunteering at St Mary’s House of Welcome , Fitzroy Town Hall.

The Big Give brings together over 300 isolated and disadvantaged people to celebrate a delicious lunch and all the festivities of Christmas.

The idea for The Big Give came from a group of individuals from community organisations and the business sector and now proudly run under the auspices of St Mary’s House of Welcome.

The Big Give has just one Christmas wish – that no one be left alone on Christmas Day.

Such an amazing experience, just to see everyone happy made my Christmas Day awsomeeeeeeee. 

Wants to use this opportunity to say thank you for your support and following my Facebook page and blog, it has been such an amazing year and I'm sure looking forward to 2014.

Merry Christmas to you and your family! Lots of Love from Team One On One with Stephanie.

World AIDS DAY 2013

Today is the 1 December 2013

World AIDS Day held on 1 December each year,  one of the most globally recognised events of the year. It raises awareness across the world and in the community about the issues surrounding HIV/AIDS. It is a day for people to show their support for people living with HIV and to commemorate people who have died. The global theme for this World AIDS Day is Getting to Zero: Zero new HIV infections. Zero discrimination. Zero AIDS related deaths.

The aim of World AIDS Day is to encourage people to be aware of HIV/AIDS; to take action to reduce the transmission of HIV by promoting safe sex practices; and to ensure that people living with HIV/AIDS can participate fully in the life of the community, free from stigma and discrimination.

As individuals, there is a lot we can do in relation to HIV. Be it Working with people living with HIV/AIDS, encouraging others to understand how the virus is transmitted. We can also support people to access testing and treatment, as we know treatment at the early stages of infection results in better health outcomes and raise awareness that HIV positive people have the right to participate in a community free from stigma and discrimination.

Show your support for people living with HIV on World AIDS Day by wearing a red ribbon, the international symbol of HIV awareness and support.

I Think I am Getting Played

My Friday Afternoon. How I made My Nigerian Puff Puff

 How I Spent My Friday Afternoon

If you are like me, I love food and if I love something I will go the extra mile to do it for myself. I have been wanting to have Puff Puff for such a  long time considering the fact that I have not had it for over 7 years plus. I thought I had forgotten about it until I went for the last Nigerian Independence Day Celebration here in Melbourne....oh my goodness see whats on the menu Puff Puff....I was the most excited person out there that day and did not even try anything else on the menu until I left, even when I got home, I was still thinking about it.
So since then till now, I have tried it a few times and here you go yeaaaaaaaaaa, I made it after a few attempt though.  So sorry you can't try it but I wish you could lol.

How to make puff puff

2 cups (or about ½ liter) flour
2 cups (or about ½ liter) water
½ cup (or about an eighth of a liter) sugar
2 teaspoons yeast
Some vegetable oil

How to Prepare Puff Puff

1. Mix the flour, sugar, water, and yeast together until the batter is smooth.
   
2. Wait until the dough has risen. 
3. Put vegetable oil into a pot, until it is at least 2 inches (or about 5 centimeters) high (too little will result in flatter balls), and place on low heat.
4. Test to make sure the oil is hot enough by putting a 'drop' of batter into the oil. If it is not hot enough, the batter will stay at the bottom of the pot rather than rising to the top.
5. When the oil is hot enough, use a spoon to dish up the batter, and another spoon or spatula to drop it in the oil, sort of in the shape of a ball.
6. Fry for a few minutes until the bottom side is golden brown.
7. Turn the ball over and fry for a few more minutes until the other side is golden brown.
8. Use a large spoon or something like that to take it out of the oil. I usually place them on napkins right away to soak up some of the excess oil.
9. If desired, you can roll the finished product in table sugar or powdered sugar to make it sweeter.

The Belt

What I got up to after work lol, went to catch up with this amazing designer that wants me to blog\ review his new women clothing line. We were seriously discussing about the future when my eyes caught this must have belt....it was just like love at first sight lol. What's even funny is the fact that I made him take me photos while trying them on lol. After my meeting with him, I was feeling too excited and I forgot to buy the belt , now am the train noooooo. Oh the belt is from the highly regarded Australian fashion brand Arthur Galan. I must go back for it.
