I have been so busy tonight after our goods shopping, I have cooked some rice, and cooked chicken adobo of course Pinoy version (as if there’s another version) when suddenly hubby asked me if I already cooked his food. Huh? Ngekk, I thought he said I am going to cook at 9:30 PM for his meal, I think I am already deaf, he said he is going to eat at 9:30 PM. So I removed my chicken adobo in the stove and prepare
grilled cheese sandwich , he just want two sandwich but I made four, the other two is for me. After which I have to fry some meat for him (he already stop with his vegetarian diet).
I have washed all the dishes, and finally return my chicken adobo in the pot and in the stove, we only have two pots here in our apartment, the smallest one is for rice purposes which is still cooking that time. After cooking the viand, I have to wash and boil sweet potatoes for the part of hubby’s everyday meal. When I check-out the water filter, there’s no more line so I have to change it and remove all the bubbles from the new filter. Have to reload it three times, I mean filter a water three times. This is so busy night.
I am so tired as what I have said to hubby, he asked me what if you’re feeding a big family what will happened if you’re tired just right now? He has a point, so I said I am not tired (lol). Well what matter most is he like the chicken adobo, he ate half of the other dish. I guess if I did not tell him, before we buy the chicken that it is my viand for the whole week he is going to eat it all. This is not the first time I cooked chicken adobo here but this is the first time I am complete with seasonings like pepper and vetsin. You know a whole chicken is just a one meal to my hubby, big appetite. I think he feel pity on me, or he is just tired of me complaining saying that I am hungry everyday. Because even though he kept telling me to eat, I kept answering “there’s no food”. and probably is also pissed of telling me everyday that “There’s food you’re just so picky on what you want to eat”. He is right, I just don’t feel eating the same food everyday, or let me say I am tired just looking on our cup board. You know when you see the food everyday it feels you already eat it. So I think we have to stop to buy food for stock so I am going to eat and don’t be tired looking at them and said there’s no food even our cup board and fridge is full.

Have you heard of carbonated milk?
The other day hubby and I went shopping, beverages or soft drinks where on sale. So we just picked a pair a coke and a soda. Never thought it is not the drink we thought it was. It was a carbonated milk, a milk soda but I like it. It was good and taste a little like lassi.
The main ingrediments here are milk, sugar and carbonation. It is thinner but not too sweet and not to milkish. It also has very unique soft milk taste, well harmonized with cool carbonate. It’s got a medicinal, Tylenol-y.

It’s been a few days since my last post, I am just not feeling well to write and this ‘girl thing’ is killing me.
As usual we went shopping last Friday night, buy some stuffs for home and for cheat day. In our surprise when we are paying in the counter, the old couple (owner)gave us this big container of home-made kimchi, never thought this is what they mean last week when they’re seems so interested that we always bought bag of kimchi’s on their supermarket. They said something in Korean language but in the manner that we cannot understand each other we just smile and say “kamsahamnida” (thank you), all we understand is the word kimchi. My husband and I feel so thankful to their kindness as we say thank you to them. This is full though but ‘someone’ already got his share before I can take picture.,
Since my husband arrived here in Seoul, he usually buy his stuffs in that supermarket that’s why he already got a point card, it is also the nearest super market into our apartment. Things changed last Christmas, a new bigger supermarket had opened just near it which I had blog previously. Since then only few people shop to the old one, stocks where smaller and before there are three people working in the supermarket but after our vacation in Sri Lanka they are gone, those old couple supersede them whom I am referring maybe the owner.
I feel bad for them, the old supermarket is family own and the new one is company own(because they are in uniform). How I wish, the new supermarket is gone.
Kimchi also spelled gimchi, kimchee, is one of numerous traditional Korean pickled dishes made of vegetables with varied seasonings. Its most common manifestation is the spicy baechu (cabbage) variety. Kimchi is the most common banchan, or side dish, in South Korea and many South Korean communities and locales. Kimchi is also a common ingredient and combined with other ingredients to make dishes such as kimchi stew (kimchi jjigae) and kimchi fried rice (kimchi bokkeumbap). Kimchi is so ubiquitous that the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) developed space kimchi to accompany the first Korean astronaut to the Russian-manned space ship Soyuz.

It was cheat day again last Friday and as usual I have to blog it today, toinkz!
Cheat Day. Why called cheat day? I know you are also wondering like me, so I have asked hubby because as what I have known cheat is to cheat, doing something out of the rules.
Well he just said it is cheat day because he is cheating on his diet every Friday, he ate a lot and a lot of sweet foods after the last day of his gymn schedule. That’s the tale of cheat day.. ^_^
We bought pizza’s last cheat day, hawaiian pizza for me and of course vegetable pizza for him, as what I am expecting he ate his pizza before I can take picture of it but I still manage to shot one (below).
There are also some chocolate cookies and a bottle of pepsi for me., I know I am kinda weird why I am blogging about pizza and everytime we ate during cheat day. You are going to say that you are also eating what I am eating and going to think that it seems I am new to everything or Mangyan to other term.
I also don’t know why I am blogging about it, but maybe because it is the only unusual day happen to my daily routine where I am just alone everyday and facing the computer on the whole day. My life during week days has no thrill, I am just all alone inside the apartment doing nothing but clicking keypads on hubby’s laptop. So boring and dull right? What should I do, I have no work to be busy of, nothing to clean after little chores. So just blogging cheat day is my fashion ..lol

Every Friday is cheat day so a jumbo vegetable pizza (cheesy crust) is Yes, pair with a bottle of coke and the problem is solved. While walking down the street going to Pizza Maru, we saw a fish thing and bought few. It’s a bread shape like a fish with a stuff inside neither beans, pineapple pie and while waiting for the pizza there is a feeling that the fish thing is not enough so bought again a few pieces. The fish thing never reached home, it was eaten along the way, along the cold night.
Been eating a vegetable pizza twice since my hubby decided to be a vegetarian, after watching the documentary entitled EARTHLINGS. So no more meat, bulgogi and ham pizza since then.
