Drizzles

I love drizzle. I really do. But I hate it when drizzle falls on summer. Blame it on climate change (which would eventually put the blame on us because we’re accountable to nature!). It’s wet outside today because of the continuous drizzle. I feel sleepy.

Aside from feeling sleepy, I also feel the urge to eat whenever it’s raining outside. It’s a natural reaction, isn’t it? There’s something about the rainy weather that induces people to slow down and rest. And yes, eat! What’s for merienda, I ask. Haha.

No Dieting for me this Christmas

It seems there’s no stopping me from eating well this holiday season. I can already feel it. The urge to eat and be merry is very strong. I’ve decided to not go against the flow and instead, embrace the glutton in me. Haha. Kidding aside, I’ve decided to not be conscious about eating until the holidays are over.

My pigging out started last Friday before, during and after our office Christmas party. There were just so many yummy treats in the office (mostly pastries and chocolates which were gifts to our boss that she happily shared with us!) that ignoring them would’ve been both a pity and a loss. The party itself was overflowing with food and drinks, too. And when I got home, I just had to have a midnight snack after watching the replay of my fave TV series online.

Craving for Thai Food

My efforts to lose weight have been futile the past days. Food trips have been aplenty and I couldn’t do anything about it. My food cravings have also been in active mode and the amount of discipline left in me isn’t enough to keep this in control. Actually, right now, I’m craving for Thai food. I want to have Tom Yum soup, Catfish salad and my favorite Pad Thai!

Whenever I’m having food cravings, I really make a way to grant my tummy’s request. It’s ironic and funny at the same time how I have always wanted to lose weight and yet, I always have food cravings that I go out of my way to fulfill. I think I have already gained 10 pounds in the last few months just because I keep on forgetting to watch what I eat. And I keep on having those food cravings even in the middle of the night.

January is My Food Trip Month

Oh how time flies! Before I knew it, a month has ended and a new month has arrived. If there’s one thing that could sum up the month of January for me, it has to be food trips! January has been all about eating for this proactive soul.

It all started with the New Year where I cooked several simple but hearty dishes for our Media Noche. I indulged in glorious, fatty food that time. Two weeks later, Superfriend Nice and I got invited to a seafood feast thru Marriott Hotel’s Ocean Surf Buffet. This luxury hotel is housed inside the huge Resorts World Manila Complex in Pasay City (fronting NAIA 3). Once more, I ate to my heart’s content but this time, I feasted on fresh bounties from the sea and a lot more.
