My favorite seasoning is these little glass jars of Japanese spice from the Asian grocery store. It has flakes of seaweed, dried vegetable bits, a little wasabi and more. It dresses up a really plain dish. It’s great on rice or fish.

I would hire a hair stylist. I love to cook, clean and drive but my hair is always a mess!

My favorite spice/seasoning would have to be cinnamon. I like making home made beauty products and I tend to add just a bit of it to add that made at home touch. I also lo-o-ove! to put it in some of my food recipes as a secret ingrediant. Even if sometimes you can’t taste it, the hint of it in the smell is more than enough to drive people wild!
I will definitely hire a cook ( :

What a beautiful prize package! I need those earrings, they are amazing and remind me of the paper crane story i read once. I would chose a hair stylist, because I never know what to do with my hair, and it’s usually just long and straight, it would be fun to try something new with it every day! Thanks π
