Handy stock

Sometimes I wish to consume more fat burning foods than fattening foods. Where we are living now is far from the malls, from food chains and restos so I am a bit safe about eating fattening foods. Besides, I eat veggies as much as I can so it’s just balancing the diet.LOL. What a great excuse! Oatmeal and yoghurt come in handy so I stock on those for us to eat when we feel like we’ve had lots of meat and sweets lately.

Building muscles

IMG_5255

From my Home Economics class in Elementary, I learned that protein helps build muscles. That’s the reason why babies are then fed with protein-rich foods such as ground “mongo” and “dilis” mixed with their milk. That’s how it used to be when baby foods are not yet available in the supermarket shelves but as far as I know, it is better to feed babies with that food including mashed veggies and others because those are more healthy than the baby foods with preservatives.

But to those who wanted to have bigger muscles in adults, they opt for bsn cell mass coupled with rigorous workout to attain that “body-building” body that every body builder would love to have. I am sure aside from those supplement, body builders eat lots of protein-rich foods to help maximize the effect of supplements.

Personally, I don’t find those bodies with bulging muscles that attractive and I am thankful Ace is not obsessed into body-building things.

Sugar Fix

There’s a dozen of eggs sitting in the fridge for around two weeks. I don’t know why I keep on including eggs in our grocery list when I seldom cook eggs for breakfast. Should I say, I don’t eat eggs as much as I need to. Since I am craving for something sweet, I decided to make a Leche Flan. This time, I baked it. As soon as Ace got home, the baked Leche Flan is done. Then he has something sweet from MIL. We got a box of Vjandep Pastel (a delicacy from Camiguin Island) – a filled buns. After dinner, we had leche flan for dessert and pastel for midnight snack paired with Royal Tru Orange. Sugar galore!

Yesterday, I am not yet over with my sugar fix that I had pastel, leche flan and softdrinks for lunch! I know it’s too much but I am just craving for it. No sweets in the coming days anyway.
