the bad time of the month

It is coming. I can tell. I am craving for stuff like anything. I actually got out of bed last night to eat two sugar-raised rolls (locally called buchi-buchi). Aside from this time of the month making you retain more water, it's also the time when cravings are most prevalent. As a result, this is the time I usually don't get to fit in my clothes properly. I just hope this passes. Like quickly. Also for Chips to not be the victim of my moodswings (though he says I'm not that bad - he may by lying).

Right now I'm wanting some Lucky Me Pancit Canton. Badly. My mom refused to buy some because it's full of preservatives and stuff. Sucks. It's a weird craving. Maybe because I had it yesterday and I realized how long I've missed it. I've gone through some other weird cravings... though one thing is consistent, I've NEVER craved for chocolate. Here's some that I can remember:

I've eaten one whole Red Ribbon Mango Cream Pie.
Craved for All-beef Shawarma with Cheese (from Food Channel).
Also for KFC Gravy.
The caramel and whipped cream topped waffle from Starbucks.
Dunkin Donuts (when they had the vanilla glaze).
Blueberry cheesecake.
Steak with lots of gravy (ohhhh steak).
Sizzling crunchy sisig.
Cheesedogs, no need for buns.
Pancit Palabok. The best is the one from Red Ribbon.
Do shoes count?

I hate it. I want to eat pancit canton. And I didn't get to have my foot massage! SUCKS! It was raining and my car was waaaay inside the garage. Too much effort for a lazy day. So I've been on Bo the entire day, downloading and playing online poker. I'm losing money and I'm hungry and my feet still long for the massage. And there's work tomorrow.

Hoo ha.

Pancit canton with kalamansi flavour? I had that yesterday night watching "LOST". Seriously, I have no food to cook and your lists even made me crave for more.

Hala, naglilihi ka na?

I have weird cravings myself. Usually, it's junkfood and then, something sweet like chocolate right after. Tell me, how am I not gonna feel like a pig?!

Speaking of poker, I just played my first game ever with A's friends and mind you, they've been playing almost every weekend for a year! You can say they are pros already. And well, I kicked their asses! I won 2 out of 4 rounds. =P I think I just got really lucky and I had good hands.

When you get your salary next time, try buying tons of Lucky Me pancit canton so when craving time comes, you're not bitin. Meantime, sleep it off. Remember, you still have work tomorrow. ;)

I craved for Lucky me pancit canton last sunday. I cooked 2 packs of chilimansi plus one pack of chilli hot. Shared it with my two young nephews who were also craving for it.

I just didn't see how they reacted with the very hot meal, as I hurriedly left for a badminton game.

just dropping by...
