Hail to the pioneers of chocolate

07.18.10

The history of chocolates is not clear, although most will say that it goes back to the times of Mayans and Aztecs.

Well, I really don’t care.

But to whoever thought that a simple cacao bean…

could be transformed into something like melted chocolate…

and be turned into this:

Thank you very, very much! Yum! Yum!

You are my heroes! Mabuhay kayo!

How am I doing?

01.25.10

At the start of the year, my only [if not one of a couple] resolution was to lessen, then eliminate, my intake of coke.

How am I doing so far, in the first month? If I were to be honest, I will give my self a grade of

Yup! I have lessened my intake, which is the first step. I no longer drink on weekdays, only on weekends, pag masarap ang merienda. And I no longer drink every time I crave. Small steps indeed…

I dream the day that even when all there is to eat are pizza and hamburger, and Coke is presenting itself to me, I will decline. That’ll be the day! He! He! I also know I’m in for harder times because summer is coming!

However, I will give myself a break this week, as I go on a holiday! If there’s one thing I cannot resist while traveling, it is cold coke while going around or while savoring the food of another place! He! He! I WILL NOT DEPRIVE MYSELF!

Have a great week everyone! :)

If only my stomach could talk…

Strawberries [dipped in condensed milk]

I rarely get this treat, only at this time of the year, when strawberries are in season. So when I do, I stuff myself!

This batch came straight from Baguio, courtesy of my sister. Super fresh and super sarap! I have eaten a lot today, and I ain’t done yet! And if only my stomach could talk, it would say, “Yummmiieee”!

Happy evening to you all!
