Watami Restaurant

Hubby and I had dinner tonight at Watami restaurant in Glorietta 2. Can't say I'm too impressed with the service or the food. They forgot Hubby's order even after numerous follow ups. We ended up canceling his order and just walked away.

Didn't have such a pleasant experience at Watami. Food is just so so for the price that we paid. Watami is only at par with Teriyaki Boy in terms of taste and, that's not saying much.

Open Letter

Dear Hubby,

See! Don't be jealous. I'm drinking your school color, too. Every single day, multiple times a day. 

You should start drinking too.

I love you and I want you to live healthier so that I can treat me like a queen longer.

My First Love Juice

This juice is so gorgeous, with a very deep red color. The picture just doesn't do it justice. I'm calling it My First Love Juice

Recipe:

1 Red beet

1 Red dragon fruit

2 small Gala apples

1 orange

Juice everything together. 

I love this juice. It's sweet and a little earthy. Refreshing, yet filling. 

Lovely juice. I felt nostalgic after drinking it. This juice reminds me of freshly cut grass, breezy evenings watching the stars and walks in the park. A long time ago, in senior college. This juice somehow triggered that memory of my first love, B2B. Red also being his school color.

To young love. Cheers! 

Turning Orange

My hands are a bit orange today. Too much carrots, maybe? 

I juice around  6-7 large ones daily. Maybe I should lay off a little bit. He he he. 

Bitter Melon

Just had this for lunch. Sauteed ampalaya (bitter melon). I'm trying to eat healthier. I hope for my own health, I can stick to this healthy eating and juicing. 

Honestly though, I feel uneasy when I don't get fresh juice everyday. My trip to Hong Kong was fun but, I felt bloated after each meal. My saving grace was when I had fresh ginger ale at our hotel room. Thank goodness I brought fresh ginger with me!

My big 4-0 is just a few months away and I DON'T want to look my age. 

Squash, Apple and Cinnamon Juice

This is what's for breakfast today. You can't get any simpler than this. 

Only three ingredients, squash, an apple and a dash of cinnamon. Absolutely DELISH. Definitely will be on repeat many times over. 

My Fridge

This is what my fridge typically looks like since I started juicing. It is a HUGE change from what it looked like before. My crisper used to be filled with all kinds of chocolates, all the time. We had a large selection of sodas, energy drinks, and other bottled sugary beverages. Hubby and the kids were partial to them. Now, my fridge is filled with fresh fruits and vegetables. In my house, if Hubby or the kids want something sweet to drink, they have to pick from the fresh produce and juice them. 

Yup, hell has frozen over :-)
