How are you when you're HUNGRY?

Some people are irritable, while some are just normal.  Some become braindead and are lost, while some say they experience feeling their brains full of air.

Me?  Well, I just realized that I am masungit when I am hungry.

You see, this past week - I've been feeling hungry more often.  Maybe because I am six weeks on the way.  I do not usually feel the hunger perse, I mean - I know its time to eat - thus I eat, but lately - I've been having these sudden hunger pains, considering that I eat a light breakfast nowadays before I take my daily dose of folic acid.  I feel hungry more often, and when I look at the clock - its barely been two hours!!

Is this normal?

 Okay - so how did I realize that I am masungit?  Well, during this evening's dinner - while waiting for our table, I suddenly felt really hungry, as in really really hungry.  (I wondered because at about 3:30 in the afternoon, I was snacking on toasted bread!  But then being six weeks on the way - I thought, that might have been the reason why I was hungry)  I was irritated, because we were still waiting for our table right?  I wanted to order, but couldn't!  And so I had to wait - I told my Panget that I was hungry (which I never am!) and he said that he felt just the same.  I reiterated to him that I was hungry, as in really hungry and I needed food fast, or else I think I'd faint!  Good thing - right after that, we got our table!

It took another 10 minutes before our food arrived, and when it did - I immediately said that I would eat first because I was sooooo hungry.  And after that first bite - everything was normal.

I was happy and in a normal mood again!!

Now, I understand it when they say that when you're expecting - you get hungry, as in really hungry.

I will now learn to bring crackers with me, so that when I get hungry - I can munch on something! :)

This is the start of my journey, wish me luck!! :)

    Oh yeah! I remember this almost 3 years back. I didn't know naman back then that I was preggy.

    I was always hungry & the 2 cups of rice during lunchtime at work was becoming normal for me and officemates were always looking strange at me.

    After 2 hours, I was hungry again and I myself had been wondering why I was feeling so famished (like I never ate lunch) everytime.

    A week later, I learned I was expecting for 2 months.

    How was I when was hungry that time? I was disoriented and always at the end of my rope. And that was why I always had a standby food in my drawer. Hehehe. :)

    Congratulations, btw.

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
