As what I have mentioned on my health blog we are going to try juice fasting for one month and to begin with that we need a juicer. So tonight we went to appliance store (Samsung) near us to see if the juicer we ordered last weekend already arrived and it does.

A juicer is a tool for extracting juice from fruits, vegetables, or wheatgrass. This is known as juicing, the process of extracting juice from plant tissues such as fruit or vegetables.

The juicer mechanically separates juice from the solid part (pulp) of most fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, and herbs. The pulp is usually discarded, but can also be used in muffins and breads or composting.

So we tested our newly purchased juicer by juicing carrots and a small piece of ginger, we made 250ml of carrot juice. My photo above is less than the amount already because that’s my share of our sample.

Nothing new around me aside from wishing to lose weight, the other day my husband shop for our daily supplies as we run out of rice. He want to buy 10kg of rice as he don’t like carrying a big sack but when I found out that the 10kg of rice is same price of the 20kg I insist of buying it. He agreed in one condition I am going to be the one who will carry the rice without thinking I said yes despite that Kim’s Mart is quite far from our place, the money that we are going to save is the only thing matters to me.

After shopping for other stuff and paying into the counter, I asked him to put the rice on my head. Oh well, maybe he felt embarrassed to other people that he is the man and I am the one who will carry the rice he told me that he will carry it. So the result I carried three large bags and it took me forever to go home. Lol! I am just carrying less than 10kg what if I ended up carrying the 20kg of rice I might roll in the street just to go home. Silly me!

If there’s something I am craving for tonight that is my version of sisig but as I am kinda lazy to cook,  I just had a noodles for my dinner that makes me crave for something sweet.

I love this viand as since I am little I am already familiar with this, this is always part of the pulutan of my grandfather way back then. My version is very simple I just fried the pork on their own oil and cut  a of onions and garlic. Then add seasoning like salt and black pepper and it is good to go. How I wish there’s real calamansi here so I am not going to use lazy lime.

It’s been a long time since my last post here huh? I was feeling sick these past few days then my monthly visitor came that makes me roll in pain, then the next day I just wake up with headache. It feels like my head is spinning dunno where did I get it all I know I just ate rice that night before I sleep,  Pookie bear says maybe I am dehydrated so I drink a lot of water but the headache won’t go away, then I recall the pain I felt when I encountered food intolerance it is the same feeling. I immediately took some spoon of sugar and rested for a while I feel like vomiting but my stomach is empty though.

So the whole week I just lay down on bed, watch some TV shows online and sleep,  as I would like to post something on my blog or design some wordpress theme I can’t do it since I feel sick, I remember my Facebook update that I feel like my head is gonna explode that’s what I felt these past few days, it feels like my head is gonna blew up if I force it to think. Teary eyes added to the injury it looks my eyes don’t like the bright of my computer dunno if I am gonna retired from blogging or I need an eyeglass. Huhuhu

So sorry guys for being away. I am thinking of returning to my tweaks as soon as possible. See yeah!

Confession  before I felt sick and everything I eat a lot of junkies yes you heard it right I feasted on ice cream and Pringles for few days, I can’t just stop myself as I am craving for them. I’ve finished three or four Weezle ice cream as I love the coffee/chocolate combination with sprinkled nuts, I came to the point I got sweet rashes in my tongue. Don’t ask my weight now because one thing is for sure I gain weight…

Ice cream is everyone’s best friend either adult or children isn’t it? Well always remember don’t just eat, so if you don’t know yet Ice cream  is a frozen dessert, usually made from dairy products, such as milk and cream, and often combined with fruits or other ingredients and flavours. Most varieties contain sugar, although some are made with other sweeteners. In some cases, artificial flavourings and colourings are used in addition to, or instead of, the natural ingredients. The mixture of chosen ingredients is stirred slowly while cooling, in order to incorporate air and to prevent large ice crystals from forming. The result is a smoothly textured semi-solid foam that is malleable and can be scooped.

Not feeling well these past few days, as of now I have a headache. When I wake up this morning my head already bothers me, I guess my food intolerance strikes again. Haist, I cannot just ate any food I want, I have to make sure it is fresh or freshly cooked or else I will feel sick.

Anyway as I have nothing to blog today, just want to share my favorite chicken recipe here in Korea. A chicken kimchi stew, its been a long time since we had kimchi at home, we stop buying kimchi because it is getting expensive and my husband change his meal plan.

My ingredients:

Chicken, Kimchi, Salt, Black pepper, Oil, Onion, Garlic, Water

Procedure:

• In a  sauce pan or in a pot sauté garlic and onions on cooking oil.
• Add the chicken to the pan. Friend it a little then add the kimchi and stir.
• Add water enough for the chicken to boil.
• Seasoned it with salt and black pepper.
• Wait until the chicken became  tender.
• Serve hot with plain rice.

I went to the bank today to pay the bills, I went at lunch time so there’s only few people especially in the machine. When I return home there’s something strange, I saw a police car in front of our apartment and there’s a middle-aged woman peeping on their gate, I have seen the police in front of a small track  just few meters away from our apartment dunno  what is he doing over there maybe talking to someone.

Didn’t take photo of him I might get arrested (lol) but I managed to took photo of the police car before closing our door.

The other day I have sauteed  a squash with meat, I just cut it into small pieces and did not peel the squash anymore, darn it is too hard and our knife is so small. I think it is okay because I also eaten not peeled squash way back home.  Well I am planning to half cooked it  but I was so engrossed online that I forgot I am cooking something in the kitchen, so when I remember it my squash turns to be overcooked, well still yummy!

When I am hungry and lazy to cook food I only have one option that is to run to family mart to buy instant meal. Just heat it warm to microwave oven and ready to go. Here’s the latest meal  I have eaten few weeks ago, it consists of rice, kimchi, meat balls and I guess a little dash of spam.

As I have read microwaved food can be as healthy as home cooking – just make sure you read the label for any ‘hidden’ ingredients first.

August 15 is a public holiday so we had a long weekend the gym is close too which makes me happy (hehe).  I am not really enjoying the gym these past few days because my back bothers me.

Anyway you might ask what is Gwangbokjeol it literally means “Restoration of Light Day” to make it short its Liberation Day it commemorates Victory over Japan Day, which liberated Korea from colonial rule. The South Korean government was created three years later, on August 13, 1948, when Syngman Rhee was sworn in as the first President of South Korea and Gwangbokjeol was officially designated a public holiday on October 1, 1949.

We’d watched an Indian horror movie a while ago entitled “Haunted” was not able to watch it fully because I am kinda busy blogging.
