Literally, I had one meal yesterday. I woke up really feeling bad and when I got out of the room to eat, I cannot take the smell of the food in the table. I don’t know but I want to throw up with the smell of sauted onion and garlic when in fact it’s one of my fave when I am cooking. At lunch, Ace was home to check on me but I hardly ate one spoonful of rice. I asked Che2x beforehand to fry the soup pack (chicken back) hoping that I could finally eat but I ended up munching a slice of the Goldilocks bread I asked her to buy in the mall the other day. I can’t understand what I am up to, or what I am feeling. I also don’t know what I wanted to eat until at last I want something salty.  I am craving for a steamed alugbati leaves (Malabar nightshage) dipped in fish paste so I sent Che2x to the store so I could eat dinner early. She went on store hopping but she went home without the Alugbati I am craving for. Hence she got some Kangkong (Water spinach) tops in the vacant lot outside the yard. I cooked Pork Binagoongan for their dinner while Che2x steamed my Kangkong.

My youngest sister asked me the other day what she’ll thaw for lunch. Since my niece requested for a soup, I told her to bring down the soup pack (the back portion of chicken) from the freezer. After minutes of looking for it in the freezer, she just told me that there’s no soup pack. I insisted that there is but she kept on telling me there’s none. Quite irritated, I told her to look for it at the top (referring to the freezer) for she is now looking for it in the beverage bin. Seemed she didn’t understand what I am talking about for she started looking for it at the top of the fridge, then at the cupboard, and in the grocery bags we brought home a night before. My bother-in-law asked her what she was looking for and she instantly said, “the soup pack”*lorl*. I can’t believe it! My sister didn’t know what a soup pack is. What she knew for a soup pack is the instant soup….grrr! She’s already in college and she has no idea what a soup pack is. Well, at least she learned something from that incident.
