I'm so glad that my mum's back!
She has been away for 3 weeks. For 3 weeks, i felt hungry all the time even though i'd just eaten a big plate of food @.@
My friends said, my stomach must have been stretched since my mum always cooks a lot and I always try to finish everything she cooks. So this 'big plate of food' is probably just 1/3 of what i normally eat.
Haha, sounds logical but I think that's not the real reason.
I think and analyse hard. Yes, i take this very seriously because it's really a pain to feel hungry all the time!
And
EUREKA!
I finally found the reason!
I was always hungry not because i didn't eat enough.
It's simply because of the quality of the ingredients used in the cooking!
When eating out, the ingredients are probably just normal or below normal quality. But mum, she always uses the best of the best. She spends time growing organic vegetables and fruits for us, going around looking for people who sells high quality ingredients, buying only the freshest. Yep, she shops almost everyday so she cooks what she gets on the day. With so much love, effort and fresh ingredients, no wonder i stay full until the next meal!
This morning, i woke up to find her new dish which she learned in Australia -> Bacon Angel Hair Pasta with olive oil and spices.
My hearty breakfast by my lovely mum
It looked so interesting in our oriental-look plate! haha... I topped it with the basil grown by me (yes, by ME! haha...). I like how it looks in the plate. It kinda symbolizes how life should be ---- blend in!
I'm seriously sick of eating out after weeks of eating out.
I'm so grateful that I can even save this for lunch later (yes, my mum cooks super duber big portion of food)
WohooO! After 3 weeks, i finally feel FULL!
