Fresh Potato Chips And Two Bananas!
bananas & potatoes
healthy options... weee!!!
yum! yum!
I’m supposed to make mojos, like the ones in Shakey’s but I don’t have flour so I just made some fresh potato chips. It tasted good but I still prefer the mojos!
It’s just simple! Get a potato, peel it and cut it into thin medallions. Then put a little salt in it. Prepare the pan for frying. Fry the potato until they are golden in color. Remember, golden not brown. Then you can eat it! 
Today. Hmmmmm. I slept half of the day and did almost nothing for the rest of it. Chatting with R for the rest of the night. I was shocked! R said my strawberry bag could hold like 2M pesos of money in it. Never thought 2M is so small!
Going jogging tomorrow! Don’t know if I’m excited or feeling tired already but I have to do this. I’ll be participating in the 4K Fun Run this coming March 28 and I’ll have to practice so that I could finish the run. I hate the thought of not finishing that 4K-run, I mean, it would be hard but others can do it, so I really have the ability to do it. I just wish I would have the strength to finish the run.
Sleepy.. but still chatting..
Rice! Weeee!!!
yum! ^__^
not salty!!! weeee!!!
rice! can't let you go!
After a grueling day at the office today, I definitely think I deserve to eat rice! Yep! I broke my personal promise of not eating rice during dinner. 
I was sad after eating… It made me want to eat a bit of Cadbury’s to ease the sorrow I was feeling over my broken promise the but I stopped myself! Hehehehe…
I cooked my own version of ginaling. It’s ground meat sauteed in oil and added with potatoes. I used beef, and I don’t know which tastes better, the pork or the beef but I was quite contented with the beef. Fortunately, it tasted good! Kudos to me! 
I’m confused. Should I go to the dentist tomorrow? I haven’t seen my dentist for almost a month now and I’m quite afraid I would be reprimanded for not setting an appointment as soon as I have the free time. Maybe I just got so comfortable with the braces that I don’t want them removed! Bah humbug! Dame! No way! When I get these damn braces off my teeth, I would be ecstatically celebrating the whole day!
So I said the whole day was tiring. It was. It actually felt that I was working and I love the feeling of it except that it was tiring. But there is something therapeutic about hard work, it makes your brain cells function.
Well, one thing I’m thinking right now. I’m excited for tomorrow!!! *blush*
Dinner Night
a bit salty, but I was hungry!!!
coke and quesadillas... hehe..
eating in my messy computer table... life!
My riceless life started when my mother said that I was getting fat. Ouch! Mothers are supposed to lie to their children! They’re supposed to tell how gorgeous and sexy their children are, even though that is so far from the truth. Well, my mother is just not like that… But I love her!
So I made a promise to myself, I’ll only be eating rice during lunchtime.
That’s how I came up with the idea of cooking and eating quesadillas. I don’t want to end my day eating bread with strawberry jam or mayonnaise. Even though I can’t eat rice, I still don’t want to feel miserable over the thing I was eating.
So I cooked quesadillas. It’s really simple! Just buy some tortillas and quick melt cheese then cook some ground meat. You then put your tortillas in the pan drizzled with a bit of oil and add the cheese and meat. Unfortunately, my quesadillas came out salty. I don’t know why, maybe it was because of the cheese, I put too much of it or maybe it was the meat. I really thought it was the meat, it was so well seasoned that when mixed with the cheese, it would end up salty. Or was it because of the kind of cheese I was using? Am I supposed to use those expensive cheese available at the supermarket? I really don’t know the reason but I was so hungry that I just have to eat them. I made 3 quesadillas and just finished 1 and a half. Maybe I’ll be eating quesadillas for breakfast tomorrow. No rice…
Joann And Nady’s Goal For The Year (Ebeb might join too..Haha)
We don’t even know what happened to our sense of judgement during that jeepney ride but after seeing and surprisingly realized that Shakey’s Pizza has, indeed, a mascot with a superhero costume and having experienced what a snob the mascot is since it declined posing for us for pictures until we put it in a cage and threw the key to the deepest fathoms of the sea. Anyways, the mascot posed with us with great and utter hesitation.
In the jeepney ride for Labangon, me and Nady, while talking about the Shakey’s event just came up with the idea that we should have a picture with all fastfood chain mascots in the Phillipines. We haven’t talked to Ebeb about this but being a cool girl, maybe she’ll be on with this stupid idea. And so the quest is on!
Our plan is to start off with the famous Jollibee. Our all time favorite mascot! We’ll be lucky if we ever get to see KFC’s mascot who is dressed as a chicken and we would definitely like to meet Hetty too. She’s that mascot dressed representing the spaghetti community.
So I’ve researched about all fastfood mascots and I’ve come up with this list.
KNOWN AND UNKNOWN FASTFOOD MASCOTS IN THE PHILIPPINES
( ) Jollibee [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Champ [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Hetty [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Twirlie [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Popo [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Mr. Yum [JOLLIBEE]
( ) Ronald McDonald [McDONALDS]
( ) Grimace [McDONALDS]
( ) Hamburglar [McDONALDS]
( ) Birdie The Early Bird [McDONALDS]
( ) The Fry Kids [McDONALDS]
(X) Captain Shakey’s [SHAKEY’S PIZZA] Click here.
( ) Chuckie [KFC]
So far, that’s is the list. Maybe some restaurants and fastfood chains have their mascots so we’ll just update the list when we see a new and unknown walking creature in town. I hope by the end of this year will be finished with this damn list! Help!
Bodily Parts
How twisted is the human mind? Having satisfaction in getting out the candy out from its long plastic prison while drinking hot coffee. Mind you, the plastic was doing a fine job in keeping the candy off my mouth and yet, I’m enjoying every minute of defeating it. My after-lunch-snack is definitely rad!
How gullible is the human heart? With desires and expectations that has been fed by words. Words that are futile and yet that tiny spark of hope just won’t die because the heart is just stupid. But how long can those sparks survive? Not for a long time for sure.
How useless is the human appendix? An alarm. That’s what it is. It’s the first organ that will malfunction when something not right is happening to your body. That is, according to my yogi which I believe is true. So when you get appendicitis, be brave enough to eat “grass” and other unpalatable food.
Plain Yogurt Sucks!
As of this very moment, I’ve been eating…. Hmmm…Nah… I’ve been licking the spoon dipped in plain disgusting Nestle yogurt. I’ve been doing this for like 30 minutes and the cup is not yet halfway empty. That’s how unappetizing it is. But then with 78 kilocalories in a cup compared to the 121 kilocalories in a flavored yogurt, I’ve stupidly decided to buy the plain one than the flavored one which I really like.
Some may think that I’m a masochist for eating this but then how can I not eat those 100,000,000 live microorganisms. How can I notstop the torture of being in a plastic cup for a long long time? I’m not that cruel. And I can’t just leave those poor live microorganisms in the garbage. I have to do something. I have to eat.. I mean, lick them.
But definitely, this would be the last time that I would have to eat them. Now, I’ve learned my lesson. I would stop buying the plain creamy yogurt and opt for the flavorful and colorful flavored yogurt. I’ll never be deceived by Mr. Calorie again, I’d definitely go for Mr. Flavor.
French Fries War
The French Fries War. I don’t know when this started but I just noticed that the three famous fast food chains here in the Philippines is having a french fries war. I’ve never been a fan of this potato-sliced-into-strips-and-deep-fried dish they commonly call french fries since I’m a chicken girl (you know what I mean, it’s not synonymous to cowardice). But after having my dentist put me in constant excruciating agony by changing the good little colorful elastics of my braces into those nasty elastic ligature, I am now in a constant diet of french fries and spaghetti whenever I am in a fast food chain. Sooo horrible.
So there’s McDonalds with their Twister Fries and their ordinary French Fries dusted with salt. Never tried the twister fries but I think there ordinary fries are quite decent enough to eat. Crispy and salty and the serving is adequate for the money you’ve paid it for. I once tried their flavored fries and I hate them. Better stick with the ketchup and salt.
Jollibee Fries. They taste a little bit crappy compared to the McDonald’s fries but then they’re more adventurous to eat. They have dips with different flavors. You don’t have to stick with the classic ketchup and salt, you can have cheese dips and other dips. But then some dips are gross.
The most unique in taste and appearance is the KFC fries. They have this new Mini Bucket of Fries which I like and it comes with a cool container. I don’t know about you but I’ve never had ketchup with my KFC fries, I dip it in gravy which usually comes with the fries. Maybe I’ll try ketchup next time.
