A Superfood Rice Bowl. Add the high protein and the vegetables you want to eat.
Shoutout to Andy Suzuki … who made Rice Bowls with Chief Editor, Briana, in her grandmother’s living room. That’s where the term Superfood got coined. If you’re Asian something, you’ll get it because I’m Caucasian. Get it?
Rice bowls are quick to make for any meal time. Keep your pantry well stocked with superfood so you always have healthy food to make a satisfying meal. Yup rice bowls are for everyone who wants one.
We fed the homeless.
We fed the poor.
We fed the working class.
We fed the rich.
We’re feeding humanity healthy food at an affordable price.
But you should know how to make it. Because it can get pretty expensive to eat a rice bowl if you buy it everyday for someone else to make it.
Teach me how to fish. Yeah, that’s my grandmother having me learn when I’m less than nine years old.
Here at Fromgirltogirl.com we eat rice bowls at brunch and dinner. Yes, you can serve dessert rice bowls.
Brunch & Dinner Superfood Rice Bowl
This is a rice bowl to feed one person:
1 tin of Smoked Salmon
Sushi Rice
Bok Choy, Chard, and Kale ( or your favorite leafy greens)

Brides Beware: Top Tips to Keep Guests from Stealing the Show
Expert reveals how to dress as a wedding guest without upstaging and upsetting the bride.
The default rules of attending a wedding are easy to follow such as never wearing a white dress on the brides big day. But you can’t forget the unwritten rules of attending a wedding
Wedding Guest Guide: How to not Upstage the Bride
Fashion experts at Karen Millen have revealed top tips on ensuring wedding guests dress to impress without stealing the limelight from a bride at her wedding. Whether you are the mother of the bride or groom, in the bridal party, or just attending as a plus one, these tips are the perfect guide on how to dress appropriately with style.
RSVP and do not bring extra wedding guests.
Be on time and don’t upstage the bride. Show people what you may wear to the wedding. Most people will give any honest opinion to help you not upstage the bride.
Does the Bride have Preferences?
The first place to start when beginning to look for a wedding guest outfit is to establish if there is a wedding theme or color scheme the bride wants guests follow.
If there is a wedding theme or color scheme, you are one step closer to finding the perfect dress. If the bride has not suggested colors to wear, politely ask if there are any colors to avoid wearing. If you let the bride guide you, you will find something perfect.
What Colors to Avoidfor Weddings
Make sure your clothes for the wedding compliments the style or color scheme of the wedding, which will probably be common knowledge if you are in the bridal party. Unless the bride specifically tells you not to wear the wedding color scheme.
Red is a bold and flashy color that will immediately draw attention to you, whether that be in person or photographs. If guests surround you in neutrals and a bride in white, you may feel out of place with the tone of the wedding.
Black dress and white themed wedding clothing. Many brides and grooms opt for a black and white-themed wedding which is perfect if that is the desired look, but wearing a black dress to a neutral wedding would be a bold choice. Black absorbs heat and will cause you to get hotter faster, so if the location is on the beach or in a warmer season, you probably want to go for a lighter option.
White might be obvious to some but wearing white to a wedding is best to be left to the bride to avoid any upset. Unless the bride gives the go-ahead to wear white or ivory-like colours, try pistachio greens, baby pinks, and other light colors.
What Wedding Colors Work Well?
The main goal for a wedding guest is to blend in with your outfit being dull or drab. The best way to choose what color dress to wear is to find out what is complimentary to both the wedding and you. By doing this, you will find something you feel confident in and not take anything away from the bride.
Light neutral colors and pastel shades are a go-to as this keeps the aesthetic light and airy and allows guests to experiment with various shades and hues. Having guests in different pastels or neutrals also turns out great in photographs with a wide range of tones bringing the bright white or ivory of the bride’s dress to light. Jewel tones and earth tones are also fantastic options for guests who have been allowed to wear darker colors.
Try flowy fabrics – There is nothing more elegant and effortless than a light and flowy dress as a wedding guest, but just remember to avoid any flowing fabrics that could have a bit of a train!
Maxi dresses are not off limits – It is fine to go floor length as a wedding guest if the dress is simple enough to blend in. If you are looking for a maxi or midi length dress, avoid purchasing those with big patterns colors.
How do you pick a Dress as the Mother of the Bride or Groom?
Allow the bride to choose her bridesmaids’ dresses before choosing your dress because you want to blend in with them and wear a complimentary color to their dresses.
As the mother of the bride or groom, avoid sequins, extravagant patterns, and outrageous diamonds or jewels. The goal is to have all the eyes on the bride and groom.
The same goes for large bold patterns and garish silhouettes; your outfit should be elegant and graceful.
Final tip: Don’t dress extravagant. Let the bride’s dress do all the talking.

Experts reveal the most luxury-obsessed areas in the U.S in new study.
These are the most luxury-obsessed areas in the U.S according to a new study .
Washington, D.C takes the top spot for the most luxury obsessed area in the U.S New York and Florida follow behind in second and third place, respectively Google Trends data was used to discover the interest in each area for terms including ‘luxury brands’ and ‘luxury travel’.
New research has discovered the top 10 most luxury obsessed areas in the U.S, with Washington, D.C earning the top spot.
Washington, D.C takes the top spot for the most luxury obsessed area in the U.S New York and Florida follow behind in second and third place, respectively Google Trends data was used to discover the interest in each area for terms including ‘luxury brands’ and ‘luxury travel.’ New research has discovered the top 10 most luxury obsessed areas in the U.S, with Washington, D.C earning the top spot.
Customized jewelry experts Glamira analyzed Google Trends data to discover the level of interest in each area for multiple search terms including ‘luxury vacation’, ‘luxury jewelry’ and ‘luxury hotels.’.
AreaAverage Luxury Score 1. Washington, D.C 78.71 2. New York 75.56 3. Florida 60.89 4. New Jersey 60.22 5.Connecticut 59.11 6.Georgia 57.78 7.Virginia 57.78 8. California 57.33 9. Maryland 56.11 10. Massachusetts 54.89
Taking the crown for the most luxury-obsessed area is Washington, D.C, with an average luxury score of 78.71. Not only did it take the top spot overall, but it earned a score of 100 for several search terms, including luxury apartments, hotels, brands, and vacations.
New York takes home a silver medal in second place, earning a final score of 75.56. The city is no stranger to luxury, due to the abundance of extravagant hotels, Michelin-starred restaurants, and high-fashion stores – we often see this showcased in classic movies with spectacular hotels including the Plaza and the Ritz.
Boasting third place in the list is Florida, which has a luxury-obsessed score of 60.89. Citizens of the Sunshine State of Florida appear to be on the hunt for luxury property more than any other state, as well as scoring particularly high for luxury cars.
New Jersey may not have made it to the podium like its neighbor New York, but it does take the fourth spot in the list with a score of 60.22. Given its close proximity to the Big Apple, residents of New Jersey don’t need to head too far for a taste of luxury.
Following in fifth place is Connecticut, yet another Eastern state to make the list. Connecticut takes a final score of 59.11, but the study reflects that the state earned a high score of 77 for searches for luxury vacations.
In joint sixth place is Georgia and Virginia, both taking an average luxury-obsessed score of 57.78. Georgia earned the top score for luxury cars searches, while both states have high scores for luxury goods.
California takes the seventh spot and is the only area outside of the Eastern region to make the list with a score of 57.33. The state has many luxurious spots itself, including Beverly Hill’s Rodeo Drive filled with high-end designer stores, encouraging the love for the ‘finer things in life’.
Placing eighth on the list is Maryland, earning a luxury-obsessed score of 56.11. Like Georgia, Maryland also has a keen interest in luxury goods with a high score for the Google search term.
Massachusetts, taking the ninth spot with a luxury score of 54.89. Boston, the capital of the state, is one of the most expensive cities in the U.S where you’ll find incredibly luxurious apartments.
A spokesperson from Glamira has commented on the findings:
“There are various ways to experience luxury, whether that be heading on a vacation to stay in a five-star resort or perhaps purchasing high quality jewelry that will last a lifetime. It’s no doubt that Americans desire a taste of a lavish lifestyle, but one thing for certain is that the East Coast has a particularly keen interest in luxury with nine of the areas in the ranking belonging to this region. However, with one of the areas in the top 10 being on the West coast, it will be interesting to see if any other nearby areas follow suit and develop a luxury obsession.” This research was conducted by Glamira, experts in customized jewelry.
Google Trends data was used to discover the level of interest in each area on a score out of 100 for multiple search terms. The scores for all nine terms in every area were given an average to determine which were the most luxury obsessed.

Fromgirltogirl.com Wedding Cake Trends (2023)
Here are our favorite wedding cake ideas.
The Family Heritage Cake of Blessings – Present & Future
Have a wedding cake showcasing heritage of the family.
For my wedding cake display my husband and I will eat together a cake for us with miniature cakes or cupcakes for our wedding guests with the same flavoring and display. When you marry, you marry into the family. Make sure you show the blessings of your union. Our union is husband and wife as we enter our marriage to fill our life and our family members with more present and future blessings. This is a powerful wedding because most people take pictures of the wedding cake display(s). Say with pride this is our marriage and family. We pre-slice or mini cake this kind of wedding cake dessert for our wedding guests. The wedding cake display picture is for the bride and groom to eat. Best of all, nobody can complain because you all are eating the same cake type.
Modern Day Wedding Tower Cake
The traditional tower wedding cakes are interesting and extravagant displays, but it takes too much time to take photos and slice the cake. Remember, people close to the family or foodies love taking pictures of the wedding cake. If you make a homemade wedding cake, it should be by an excellent baker and someone who wants nothing but blessings for your marriage and your entire family. If you can’t find that person, hire a professional wedding cake specialist who meets your requirements at an affordable price for wedding budget.
Know exactly how your cake is made and baked. See how they conceal the cake tower inside. It should be an edible cake tower structure so you won’t waste any money. The baker should show how cake pre-slice will be and still make it look like a whole cake for wedding cake photos. Save time. Save money. Your wedding guests will highly recommend this wedding cake if it is done right.
Big Wedding Cakes ( Side by Side)
Big Wedding Cakes with beautiful decorations make wedding cake eating time fun for everyone. Make sure it is an edible cake decoration. Every part of the cake should be edible and the cake should always look good for taking wedding cake photos. If you can’t pre-slice, the cakes should still be easy to cut. You can just put the wedding cake display on an elevated space to make it an appealing dessert table. Only the people serving the cake should be at this table and go directly to the table for those who really want to eat the wedding cake.
Wedding Planning Advice for Couples
What factors should couples consider when setting a budget for their wedding?
According to Jason Whiting, Ph.D. – Graduate Program Coordinator; Faculty, School of Family Life, Brigham Young University:
When couples set a budget for their wedding, a key factor is whether they are on the same page and whether they can talk it through. Unfortunately, some couples start off their marriage with stress and tension about money and have style differences that are reflected in the wedding plans. Recent research suggests that more expensive weddings are often associated with shorter marriages, and it may be that elaborate plans bring stressors and unrealistic expectations that cause angst that is hard to overcome.
How much money are you willing to spend that will not affect the start of your marriage and life together?
What you do not want to do is go into debt to pay for a wedding or pay interest on a new (or current) credit card for what is essentially a big party.
Think about your wedding as a celebration with family and close friends, rather than a show.
Here are questions to ask before you schedule the wedding date:
1.Who do you really want to be there? 2. Can your guests afford to travel to your wedding?
Erika Engstrom, Ph.D. – Director, School of Journalism and Media, University of Kentucky
The tradition of the bride’s – or bridegroom’s – parents paying for a wedding as a gift to the couple may be something you do not have an issue with – but what could you do with the money instead of paying for the wedding? You can make a down payment on a house.
How should a couple decide where to get married? There are so many factors at play when deciding on where to get married; the wedding destination could range from where the bride or groom grew up or has family, to a place that is significant for both like the city where they met or currently live in, or perhaps a vacation destination where the couple would like to celebrate their union.
According to Madhavi Menon, Ph.D. – Professor, Nova Southeastern University, deciding the wedding destination could very well be the first big decision being made by the soon-to-be married couple, but like the marriage ahead, determining the destination should be a joint effort, while also giving due consideration to each person’s wishes.
Erika Engstrom, Ph.D. – Director, School of Journalism and Media, University of Kentucky
This depends on, of course, the money and time the couple is willing to spend to travel. A destination wedding may serve as a well-deserved getaway or family reunion, or you might want to think about what is easiest and cost-effective for not only you but for your guests.
A wedding should be a once-in-a-lifetime event, so if you can afford it and have considered whether or not the traditions associated with weddings align with your personal values and ethics, go ahead and go big. If you are more practical, backyard weddings can be one of the best weddings for the fun and comfort of a loving home.
Or there’s always city hall, which can be as romantic as the $30,000 white weddings typically portrayed in magazines and movies. It really does not matter where you get married, but that you truly and authentically mark the occasion.
What tips do you have for a couple planning a wedding and hoping to stay on a budget?
Daniel J. Puhlman Ph.D., C-LMFT – Assistant Professor, University of Maine
Remember that a wedding and a marriage are not the same. Do not spend recklessly thinking it will be the thing that sends you into marital bliss. It is a fleeting experience and the memories will be wonderful, but is it really worth breaking the bank? No. Could your marital health be better protected by investing your money in more meaningful ways? Yes.
Remind yourselves that this is a single day in your life and the money you spend will simply disappear into the wedding industry with no positive impact on your relationship. If you feel a need to impress people or ‘keep up with the Jones’ then you probably should rethink those priorities as you plan your wedding.

REVEALED: Lisbon is the most romantic capital city in Europe.
New research reveals Lisbon in Portugal, as the most romantic capital city in Europe, with some of the most romantic restaurants and hotels in the capital.
New research has revealed which capital cities in Europe are the most romantic as the run-up to Valentine’s Day approaches by analyzing Trip Advisor for the number of romantic restaurants and hotels in each city. The European-based yacht charter group Catamaran Charter Croatia looked at each capital city in Europe and analyzed Trip Advisor data on the number of romantic restaurants and hotels per million people in each city.
Monaco is the second most romantic capital city in Europe, with the highest number of restaurants per million people in the rankings. The third most romantic capital city in Europe is Paris, France.
Lisbon takes the top spot in the rankings as the most romantic capital city in Europe to visit on Valentine’s Day. Despite having the ninth smallest area, the city sweeps across 100 square kilometres and has a population of 545,923.
Monaco is Europe’s second most romantic capital city to visit on Valentine’s Day, with romantic restaurants and romantic hotels.
London, United Kingdom, has the highest number of romantic restaurants overall, and Rome, Italy, has the highest number of romantic hotels in the rankings.
Paris, France, has the highest number of Michelin-star restaurants, with 88 in total across the capital city, nine of which have been awarded three stars. Rome, Italy, has the highest number of romantic hotels, which are rated four plus stars, currently sitting at 650 across the city.
The Most Romantic Capital Cities in Europe Ranking Country / CityCity.
“The fact that there is such a high number of romantic restaurants and hotels in smaller populated cities just shows how many capital cities can profit from being a go-to place for a romantic getaway.
European countries thrive during celebrations, especially when it comes to Valentine’s Day, which is why this study is exciting to see which capital cities come out on top just in time for the most romantic day of the year.”

Relationship expert reveals what Prince Harry must do to reconcile with the Royal family and repair their family relationship.
5 Steps Prince Harry Should Take to Repair the Royal Family Relationships
With Prince Harry’s autobiography, Spare, detailing the break down in relationships between the duke and his family, and the communication between both parties becoming rapidly worse.
Relationship expert Valon Asani from Dua.com reveals the top tips for mending broken down family relationships.
1. Acknowledge each other’s struggles
When being faced with a broken family, often we say, “I don’t know where to start” but what we actually mean is: “I’m scared to start.”
After a family fallout, one of the hardest aspects is to accept that the other party feels wronged in some way by your actions, even if they were not intended to cause hurt. However, acknowledging how the other party feels, whether you agree or not, can show empathy and understanding that can then lead to more effective communication to be built.
Prince Harry has been incredibly open about the many struggles he has faced in his life, such as the lack of contact and accountability, that he feels the Royal family are responsible. The struggles that Prince Harry details in his autobiography appear to stem from childhood trauma and repressed emotions from the environment he grew up in, which many find relatable and can empathize. An acknowledgement from the family, whether private or public, of the difficulties that the duke feels he is facing could lead to a reconciliation.
However, the same sentiment applies the other way round; Prince Harry should also acknowledge that the Palace may view events differently – as the late Queen famously said ‘recollections may vary’ – and their views are also valid.
2. Find common ground
Reconnecting in a family can often help either party bond, no matter how big or small. This common ground can present itself in many ways, such as an event you may both attend or just a shared interest.
Using something that the both of you have in common can be used as a catalyst for building up communication again. In Prince Harry’s case, causes that are close to his heart and the rest of the Royal Family’s, such as the Invictus Games, are a chance to rekindle a relationship and begin communicating again.
3. Take the first step and extend an olive branch
This can be a difficult step to take, however if there has been a severe breakdown in communication within a family, it might be necessary. Reaching out to the other party and offering some sort of gesture, whether this is an invite for coffee, a kind letter, or can help the relationship to start rebuilding.
It can also reveal where both parties are at in terms of emotions and if they want to pursue a future relationship. It has been reported that Prince Harry and Meghan have been invited to King Charles III’s coronation in May 2023, which is an olive branch from the family to the couple.
The trauma that Prince Harry has recounted and shared with the world recently can manifest itself in many ways, and Prince Harry likely has feelings of abandonment from his family and is seeking some form of compassion and communication from them.The occasion of King Charles III’scoronation is cause for celebration as we celebrate the beginning of the King’s reign, and such a meaningful and happy occasion may be the perfect backdrop for reconciliation.
4. Set and respect boundaries
If the communication is starting up again, it is important to ensure that boundaries are set to avoid another rift occurring. Establish with yourself the boundaries you would like to set so that the relationship stays healthy and positive for you and communicate those to the other party so that everybody is on the same page. Similarly, listen and respect the boundaries of the other party, whatever they may be. Prince Harry and the Royal family alike appear to have similar strict boundaries when it comes to the idea of privacy, however both parties’ action this in very different ways. Therefore, when communication starts again, they should both immediately share the boundaries that they are and are not comfortable with.
5. Take it slow
It may be exciting or feel like a relief to have your relationship with your family begin to repair but remember to take it slow. The other party may be more hesitant than you are to jump straight back into the way the relationship used to be, acknowledging and respecting that it is crucial to solving any and all problems.
The Royal family, despite being extensive, are a very tight knit family, therefore, they may be hesitant to let Prince Harry and Meghan back into their circle after this fallout, which is something Prince Harry and Meghan must recognize. If the couple can recognize this hesitancy, they can more effectively communicate and build the relationship back up at a pace that suits everyone.
