Cooking

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Have you ever felt after watching a great cooking show, seeing all that kitchen verbs are being done such as chopping, stirriing, mixing, and boiling ….zip….boom….bah…bon apetitte…..you wanted to do something similar like it?  Well, I did, I tried with a pasta….the spaghetti kind of pasta, experimenting on how to make your own recipe using what you got in the fridge.  I’m not going to say leftovers, I’d go feed my Aunt Lillie’s dog for that but, with what ingredients you got.  I wanted the food to look really good but ended up with "Hey Cindy, whatcha cookin’?"  My response would be, "I don’t know…..sh**?"  It’s a matter of how I felt at that moment when you tried but turned out not what you expected….like "Da**! what’d I do wrong?"  Curiousity can sometimes do to your advantage, I didn’t give up, I kept on and the inevitable happened!…..I cooked something my kids would want some more…..but then again, I remembered my mom cooked this to me and my brother before 

Well, at least when I asked my mom about the ingredients she put into it and I never thought she had added a little "Oyster sauce"…..eeeeek! but its not nasty as it sounds, it is quite good.  I know come New Years time, I have to face the unforgettable menu of "Chittterlings" and i am NOT such a big fan of it.  Don’t forget about Okra, i call it "Snot veggie."  Just an opinion, I am pro for Health Awareness   Recalling back in my younger years in the Philippines, I would often gag at the site of "Squid" and the smell of fried "Eggplant."  No one forced me (or my cousins….long story) to eat it but, I was anticipating that sweet chocolate price after i finish my plate.  Hersheys chocolate back then was like a "Treasure" for a pinoy kid.  So, I had a "Fear Factor" moment! I chewed it while I tried holding my breath.  Squid is tough, I felt like I just ate a rubber.  Alas! I had a piece of the treat and I was satisfied. 

There’s a saying from pinoy old folks, "A girl is not to get married unless she learns how to cook."  This is true, how on earth are you going to fix food for the family?  They never said anything about splendid cooking but at least you know How to Cook.

Furnishing the Inner Sancrum…blah blah

Bedroom FurnitureOne of my dreams is to be able to make enough moolah to give our bedroom an air of romance. Not that we don’t have enough romance going on, but I just think it would be nice to come home to comfortable yet classy bedroom furniture.

The house we live in was built in the late 60s, so I suppose modern bedroom furniture is out of the question. I prefer rounded edges and soft cushions and foam mattress and covers that can be removed, washed and replaced. I like cushions on chairs and sofas and even on the floor, although the dust pit where we live in keeps me from going all out on the fluffy stuff.

Contemporary bedroom furniture seems to be the answer, if only I’d be able to find pieces that will blend in with the high ceilings and the wide windows of the inner sanctum which we call our retreat.

Now if only finances weren’t an issue….should Cindy care enough to vote for a presidential hero for a false pretense or a sign of hope and sigh of relief when matters most?

stupidity

Just tonight, i got upset again, because of him….how am i supposed to know what he wants me to cook.  Now he is saying "I don’t cook" even if I already did!  He doesn’t like to eat my cooking.  He’d rather eat hot dog than my gourmet cooking.  Its his loss.  Sometimes, I will try from now on to just cook for my kids and let him fix his own food…hehehehe :)  I will not worry about it.  He is being a jerk….and I will not be a fool for something so stupid.  God! I really want to learn Ju jit su or some form of martial arts right now to kinda kick someone’s ass :)

You know, sometimes i wonder, if ever i married a pinoy, i won’t have to go through this ;) there’s more understanding and less bickering over nothing.  Gi ingnan ko sa mama ko na pukpukin nako ang ulo nang mister nako para naman naay common sense.  Anyways, I remain loyal and a martyr but, it takes a simple "cheat" then I’m gone for good.  Part of being Cindy…..who is I believe he knows im irreplacable….lol! definitely.  Who would put up with his shit! I mean not just one shit…..a whole lotta bullshit! lmao!!! 

Sounds complicating?  Not really, I thank the internet and music to keep me sane and at peace.  Dili ni Jerry Springer moment…hehehe….That reminds me, i need to check I meem, i haven’t been there in a while.  I have to work tonight.

FYI: Normally I don’t curse, part of Cindy who like to stay a little sensible and sane yet, open-minded at the same time. 

Damn, about a couple of days ago, I had a dream….I dreamed about The Rock! you know, ….."Can you smell Cindy’s panties?," ooooohhhh wait! lol! it’s like…"Can you smell what the Rock is cookin’?"….. for those who somehow watched or took a glimpse of the Wrestling Federation shit, u know what im talkin about.  He was holding me from behind, kind of like had his arms around me from behind?  OMG! it was such a turn-on!  He stroked my fingers and arms and kissed my neck.  We french kissed awhile. I can feel his warm hands rubbing my ass and he grabbed it really hard! while he took my pants off and my top….He gently layed me on the soft master bed!….Daaaaammmmmmnnnnnn! He went all the way to my tits and i can feel it! oh! shit…..it was so arousing that all of a sudden i hear someone saying….wake up!……………………Fuuuuuck!……………

I was so pissed! Alex had woken me up and i was like…"Why’d u wake me up?!? We had to go out of town.  Oh well, I am not a fan of The Rock and I don’t even fantasize about him.  However, he was pretty hot in the movie "Walking Tall"….I wanted to be that girl in his peep show….hahaha.  I know I’ve done some in real life….hubby’s choice at home lol!…..still freaky after all these years! hahaha!……………sssssshhhhh.  Anyways, I have to admit, I looked for the cd were he is on it and watched "The Rundown"….Scorpion King….pffffft! he was ugly.  I told Alex about it, he was like….uhhhhuhhh, that’s ur boyfriend….lol!….jealous.  HaHaHa…i guess i was wrong about me not having to put personal and rather intimate stuff on my blog…..i just hav to put it in here so i can remember, maybe i would try to figure out my outrageous subconscious visions.  I don’t know, I’ll be lookin into Sigmund Freud :)
