sweets deprivation
Posted on December 7, 2006
I haven’t had any decent sweet these past few months. I’ve been limited to small amounts of chocolates, a forkful of cake here and there… it was such torture for me, considering that sweets and desserts are always a part of my diet. Hehe!
The whole ordeal (?) has reached its maximum point for me a few days ago when I couldn’t help but cry because I so wanted to have something sweet. Thoughts of all kinds of chocolates - cakes, ice cream, drink, etc kept filling my mind. I couldn’t help imagining textures of cheesecakes, leche flans, pies, halo-halo, & pastries in my mouth. I was having withdrawal symptoms! All Ramil could do was hug me tightly as I cry and mope about my very superficial sacrifice.
A few days after I almost went crazy with my desire for something sweet, Ramil and I happened by a palengke near the Dapitan Arcade where there were a lot of colorful, circular fruits being sold (in anticipation of Christmas and New Year, I presume). I saw a bundle of longgan, immediately bought 1.5 kilos of it, ate around half of it on our way to my parents’ house, and shared what’s left with my family (still, while eating with them hehe). For the time being, I will satisfy my cravings for sweets with fruits. But the things that I vow to eat once Mateo comes out have been getting longer and longer…
