Yesterday was a Saturday .. and Saturdays means day off -- or rather a half day off for me! haha! -- and so a half day off means 2 things -- either I have some random or planned activity for the rest of the day or I just go home and sleep till I cant sleep no more! siiiiighhhhh! the OFW life, haha!
Ok, so my half Saturday yesterday was spent with a girls-only date with Liz and Vanessa -- 2 of the people I get too see and be with everyday -- one I work with and the other I stay with -- and still when I go out .. its still with .. them! Surprise right there! Haha! That explains my social life and circle of friends here by the way!
Anyway, I have this grand thought in my hyperactive mind to eat out everyday! -- breakfast, lunch, dinner (snacks, nibbles , desserts in between. wine or beer when I feel like it! haha) -- the goal is to explore, experience, enjoy good food, a nice place and great company. thats it! -- but then, eating out all day everyday is going to torture my savings and kill me plus, a nice home-cooked meal is still comfort at its best -- so my grand thought will remain that way, a thought! I need that to keep me grounded, knowing that I have a lot of eating adventures to look forward to so I know I have to work really hard, save some eat-out fund and I will never get tired of diving in to every foodie experience whenever I have the chance, the time .. the money, of course! may i add, the sponsors? the invites? anyone? haha :p
Living in Singapore for the past 10 months has given me the opportunity to re-energize the foodie in me -- from homecooked meals to hawker delights to street delectables to quaint coffee shops to themed restaurants to surprising hole-in-the-walls to cheap pleasures to average-priced tummy fillers to the a little bit expensive sets to the usual fast food cravings and .. dont forget the starbucks magic! haha! -- its definitely a foodie wonderland in here because there is always something somewhere .. even in our own neighborhood! Its like hallelujah from end to end of this red dot!
I'm no food blooger. I can't do that -- because the only adjectives that will come out of my mouth are "masarap" "sakto lang" and "ang sarap sarap" -- that's a good, better, best in English! haha. So that does not qualify me to be a food critic .. I enjoy food so much I just appreciate whatever looks edible! -- although another grand thought of mine is to be a part of the food tasters of all those cooking shows but no judging, just eating! (you can ask my sisters how I internalize this role at home! hahaha! im soooo good at it, i do it everytime my sister cooks or bakes).
Nevertheless, being excluded from the legit food bloggers list would not stop me from blogging about my love of food and everything else that comes with it -- the experience, the exploration, my random thoughts, the priceless memories created and syempre, pictures of me and new food discovery, of me having a bite of that chunky meat, of me shoving that piece of cupcake in my mouth, of me and the froth mustache, of me and the best "insert food name here" ever, of me and my happy tummy .. plus selfie selfie pa pag may time! (OUCH! sapul to lahat ng sermon ni DONYA INA! you my 30K Pinoy readers should kow her! haha)
I've always been so vocal here in my blog of how overwhelmed I am for every little thing that has happened for the past months -- and this food adventure that I am having right now is part of it and I am truly truly blessed and thankful that my taste buds are well intact .. and with that, I can savor every big or little bite but am reminded that I should not put anything to waste.
Ahhhh! I guess for single ladies, until we meet our blessing in a man, for now, FOOD IS INDEED LOVE! :p
exactly my feeling ..... |
