1o*24 Daily Munch

I’m behind in blogging :] I’ve been super busy with work… meetings and lots of deadlines!!!…. x-x Finally I have a break!!!

I’m still having issues with sleeping. I was starved, exhausted but I simply could NOT fall asleep. So I turned on the tv, went on gchat and munched on Jelly Bellys…

I was back-reading on Coco‘s blog :]

They’re sooo good, berries, mango, and even a smoothie PEAR flavor.. I’m all out now :[ ANYWAYS to keep the story short, I passed out as soon as the bag was cleared out. I woke up at 5am with a piping hot laptop on me and the lights on. Lame. I ended up deciding to WAH, because 1. I felt really crummy 2. I have been feeling crummy. 3. I fell asleep, literally, on the drive home yesterday. DANGEROUS!!!!
w@h-ing and reading comics, teehee

Since my stomach hasn't been feeling well, despite my hunger there was nothing I really wanted to eat. I considered making some oatmeal.... or maybe some yogurt (I can't stop thinking about you Fage!!! Haha) But decided to keep it simple first... Instead of eating the usual slices, I cut up my guava to increase munching time...

SO MUCH!!!

My tbs of Chia Seeds to dip my guava in :]

I LOVE White Tea, the Pineapple Guava one is really sweet and smells SOOO delicious!!!

Doop dee doooo…

Dip dip dippity doo…. I love my Chia & Guava :D

I’m just sipping tea and finishing up work. TGIF!!! Hopefully dinner will work out well and I’ll get my appetite back…

I know it’s almost dinner time (I eat earlier on Fri, Sat & Sun) BUTTT I remembered that I had my MONSTERA to eat!!!! It’s been sitting in a bowl now and I’ve been excited, this stuff is really really good!!! It has the texture of….. jackfruit and it tastes kinda like pineapple, seriously, just like the pineapple-cherimoya hybrid :D Super sweet!!!

This is the fruit underneath all cleaned out from the “cob”

More Info on this yummy kooky fruit :]

(hehe my Hello Kitty fork from part of my birthday gift from E, one of my best friend’s awesome girlfriend :]) — Speaking of which we might go out for dinner tonite :] We’re both feeling kinda crummy tho so… we’ll see :]

It’s the BEST Monstera I’ve had!!! Super sweet and very Cherimoya like :] They’re such a PAIN to eat tho… you have to wait til it ripens, and when it does it’s “scales” come off EVERYWHERE haha… and then if you don’t quickly put it in a paper bag for all of it’s scales to come off, it’ll be everywhere and the fruit flies will come. If you eat it before it’s ripened, it’s kinda toxic >_<; NO JOKE!!! it’s like instant pain & losing voice, etc…

Anyways I guess… this is my “lunch” ? HAHA…

Wanted: Ice Cream + Snuggles

I’m behind… I keep finding other things to do and I just got done showering after watching 88 Minutes (w/ Al Pacino) – which was really good – and some news… I’m trying to stay awake, catch up on blogs and commenting, gchat, look at fb and blog at the same time. Now that’s what i call multitasking. THANKFULLY I don’t have any extra work to catch up on tonite :] And hopefully I don’t fall asleep with the tv on again and having to have RACHEL RAY wake me up…

So for dinner tonite I was in charge of cleaning out the fridge and making a veggie dish for my parents. My mom had a lot of cleaning and errands to run after her lunch (which lasted til late) and since we had lots of meat leftovers and no veggies, I had to scavenge for some. I found some dying flat leaf parsley and a SOFT, not just moldy, SOFT AND ROTTING sweet potato stuck in the back of a fridge in a bag (thankfully!!!) My mom tried to deny it wasn’t hers, but I always buy the bright orange ones where she tends to buy the lighter ones so, Tiffie FTW ;]

First off…. the celery root I purchased… uhhh, 2 weeks ago? OOPS.

I matchsticked up half of a celery root (it was HUUUUGE, as you can see, and DANG they’re fugly), a leftover turnip which miraculously wasn’t gross yet from…. I don’t know when… a large carrot (and then I started EATING the raw carrots from the bag… haha), half of a granny smith apple, some sliced Taiwan Cabbage (no idea if there’s a difference but I got it at an Asian store & it was labeled “Taiwan Cabbage” haha)… and then TONS of garlic, ginger, a splash of rice wine vinegar, pepper, soy sauce and some sesame oil & hot pepper flakes (all to taste!!)

and VOILA!!!

OHHHH I forgot, I added about 2 tbs of PEANUT BUTTER (diluted with some hot water, mixed up and tossed in) and then – as you can see – some fresh scallions on top!!! Looks kinda bleh, but it was pretty tasty :D

My stomach’s still feeling funny so this was “my meal”

Up close & personal….

It was 1/2c Egg Whites, 1/4c Wheatberries :] And 150g of French Beans steamed….

One of my beloved bottles of crushed red pepper flakes.. I think there’s like 4 or 5 of them, AT LEAST, in the house.. hahaha

 I duno why I took so many pictures of the freaking egg whites with wheatberries, now looking at them is beginning to give me goosepimples I’m getting kinda BUGGED OUT O_____O (I don’t like multiple dots placed together)

LOOK AT THAT YUMMY SPICY *goosepimples* WHEATBERRIES & EGG WHITES!!!

Leftover spicy marinated SQUID!!!

I had like 21 tentacles ….. (crap I almost wrote the t-word with the “s” in it if you know what I mean…. give me a break it’s 1 in the morning and I’m delirious ;])

LOOK!!! Another learn chinese time…
Home made 糯米 (like a sweet sticky rice) with dried rambuton

& then it was movie time with some yummy wine… but first, which one to drink first?

I decided to choose the Zinfandel… and have the Malbec tmw :] Since it seemed more exotic being from Argentina and all… this Zinfandel is just from Cali ;] HAHA… 

It was SOOOO good :] & STRONG!!! Actually I kinda wana sneak downstairs and get another glass now… 

Two oatmeal cookies while I watched the movie…

From Japonaise Bakery

After the movie I turned on the news…

More wine & baby macaroons also from Japonaise Bakery

(HAHAHAHA I can’t get over the picture of Dior as a hot dog…. I stared at it ALL DAY at work.. she looks so helpless… hahahaha like, “pleaseeeeeeee don’t eatttt meeeee *sad eyes*” hahaha)

MAN!!! Just recapping my dinner + afterwards dessert/snacking made me HUNGRY!!!

OH I finally finished Fat Girl the other day (super disturbing at the end!!! I also realized I always fell asleep like 5 min before the end, which is the most intense part hahaha…. but I FINALLY finished it… this is like reading…) ANYWAYS, I’m currently watching Soldier’s Girl which is a true story about a soldier (Pfc. Barry Winchell) who got beaten to death cuz he fell in love with a transgendered nightclub performer. IT. IS. SOOOOO GOOD!!!! It’s a really tender, touching movie…. and, well, brutal at the end obviously but I’m not on that part yet… I’m breaking out of the horror movies and back to dramas and stuff.. I just got Big Bang Love, Juvenile A  & I’m getting 11:14 (I feel like I’ve seen it before.. but I don’t remember…) in the mail tmw.. so *squeal* I’m excited, I’ll let you guys know how they are!!! OK, I might find something to nibble on and then some book and then bed :]

XOXO, night
