Glowing skin is always in

O prietena mi-a adus bratul de patrunjel, iar o alta mi-a adus inspiratia. O salata o aveam in plan sa o fac oricum, dar la tratamentele cosmetice pe baza de patrunjel nu ma gandisem din start.

Mi-am oferit o bomba de energie cu intriganta salata din frunze de patrunjel, grepefruit, ceapa si ardei kapia, asezonate cu sare si piper. Partea cea mai frumoasa la salata asta este ca mirosul pregnant al cepei e neutralizat de patrunjel, ceea ce nu se intampla prea des cu „parfumata” ceapa.

Pentru amplificarea efectelor vitaminizarii, luptam pe doua fronturi: coditele ramase de la salata si frunzele mai obosite le-am bagat la fiert, unde au forfotit vreo cateva minute bune. Am pus dischete demachiante intr-un borcan si am turnat potiunea peste ele, pastrandu-le la frigider, gata sa fie folosite. Ce poate fi mai revigorant dimineata pentru piele decat niste comprese reci si vitaminizante?...

Din resturile de plante am facut si o masca, adaugand drojdie. Magie din bucatarie! Pielea mea e cu adevarat fericita acum.

One friend brought me the parsley, another one brought me the inspiration. I had in mind to make a salad anyway, but I didn't think from the begining about the cosmetic treatments using parsley.

I gave myself an energy bomb with the intriguing salad of parsley leaves, grapefruit, onion and kapia pepper, seasoned with salt and pepper. The most beautiful part of this salad is that the smell of the onion is neutralized by the parsley, which is not happening too often with the "scented" onion.

To amplify the effects of vitaminisation, we are fighting on two fronts: I boiled for a few good minutes the parsley strains left from the salad and the withered leaves. I put some cotton pads in a jar and poured the potion over them, keeping them in the refrigerator, ready to be used. What can be more refreshing in the morning for the skin than some cold and full of vitamins compresses? ...

I used the boiled parsley too, preparing a mask by adding some yeast. Magic from the kitchen! My skin is really happy right now.
