Maligayang Pasko

Mula sa aming pamilya, Maligayang Pasko!

Barbie Cafe - Taipei

Barbie Cafe in Taipei is an explosion of pink and ruffles. From the waitresses' uniforms. Down to the seat covers. I love it! 

Surprisingly, the pomegranate and strawberry tea was faaaabulous. 

Migraine?

I've been eating good today. I had a small fish and a few bites of veggies. I had lots of green smoothies throughout the day.

A friend offered me some commercially available cheese chips. I got one small piece and now I have a full-on migraine headache! I haven't had them in a long time and with just one chip, I get this massive headache. What the heck is in junk food nowadays? 

Also, Hubby and the kids got sick this week, my niece Ashley brought a virus from school, I suspect. Hubby was almost too sick to make his flight this afternoon.

I think my smoothies saved me. Juicing also helped Hubby heal in record time.

Ano ba?!

There are days that I feel so stupid and better off locking myself in my room. 

It's one of those days. I could just kick myself. 

A reset button, please. 

Frustration

I am so damn frustrated everyday. I stopped eating beef, pork and chicken when I turned forty. I juice, I make green smoothies daily. The weight just doesn't want to come off! 

Darn it to hell! 

I know what to do, really I do. Drink green juices and smoothies, no white carbs, no meat and my most dreaded activity....daily exercise!

Darn it to hell!

Everyday is a struggle.

And my pants don't feel right. 

I gave them all away.

It's for my own sanity.

Surprise

I got a lovely pre-birthday surprise today. Hubby sent me these lovely pink roses, my favorite! It was sent with a cute pink teddy bear, too! 

Thank you, Hubby! I love you so much.

Butterbeer at Hogwarts

Finally had butterbeer at Hogwarts yesterday. So sweet!
