It has been a while! Suddenly, I feel I miss blogging. And taking photos, editing them and shamelessly displaying them online
But time hasn’t been on my side. I guess, when it comes to assignments, they just don’t stop coming - don’t read me wrong, I love that, so I’m not complaining
But just wish I had more time to do things I enjoy doing - like a hobby. Sometimes I forget that word exists! Baking used to be a hobby, but guess what. I haven’t baked a single dessert item since late last year! What was that last recipe I made? Laksa cookies? Or the molten choc cake. Who knows. I think I got burnt out from the humongous batch we baked in Sept last year that I’ve sworn off baking.
A sure reason why I don’t bake cookies anymore is, if I bake it, I gotta eat it. And you know when it comes to cookies, you cannot stop at one. So why even go there, right. Not that I never will bake cookies ever again, at least, not until I have reached my ultimate goal. Which seems to take for evah!!!

If you haven’t been reading my “health and fitness” blog [more like my blog of struggling to lose that last 6 lbs], or my twitter, I’ve been complaining about having this strong crave for buffalo wings for the past week. Actually, this past week has been extremely challenging - I was constantly hungry, famished every two hours and I kept thinking about food. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it drives me up the wall.
Finally after a week of great mental suffering, I made the wings. And boy were they GOOOOOOD!!!!
These were broiled, served with [low fat] homemade blue cheese dip, with sides of carrot sticks, baked sweet potato wedges and some mesclun salad for a balanced meal.
After I got my wings [six of them, including the fattening juicy skin *evil grin*], I have not thought much about them, thankfully. Nor do I think much about food. And I’m not as famished!
Except when I’m looking at this photo, I hate myself sometimes
So the lesson here is, when a strong craving hits, the best way to deal with it is not to deprive myself. It’s best to eat it, before it eats me. And I make sure it’s REALLY good and hits the spot, otherwise, it’s almost useless and the whole torturous cycle repeats.
I’m actually hating this time of the month. You ladies know it better. I just learnt how to make hummus and… you can’t just eat that alone, can you. So I’ve been having these 100+ cals snacks some days when I need something crispy and salty [baked chips is the answer] with a dip. I hope the week passes by quickly. I’m getting tired of attending to these cravings.
BTW, I thought of doing a review of the Malay horror movie Jangan Tegur, but simply can’t find the time. Quick review: See it! It’s REALLLY good with minimal usual-malay-corniness
Lots of scary moments, simple storyline with a slight lack of originality [just think Supernatural + Ghost Whisperer + Medium + Exorcist], but you’ll love it. It’s probably one of the best horror Malay movies of the year.
