Now as in continuation of that last blog, I will explain a little bit more on how such movie (Julie & Julia) brought me to make an effort and do something like this.I am blessed to live a life that has never bored me once.
Julie Powell just blogged about her life in relation to that of Julia Child's, and she made a mark on her readers.
Alright so this isn't 2003 anymore where there were only a handful of bloggers existent in the world. (Man, having a constant internet connection and your own computer was totally cool when I was 13.) But to whoever may be reading this at all, I wish to inspire you a little bit. Share with you whatever brings me happiness, so that somehow I get to share a little bit of sunshine into the world.
Okay that was a little corny.
Anyway, if dark clouds do come my way, don't let it get to ya. I get over them as quickly as you can count to… Well, let's say an hour, or okay, a day at most. When I do rant I actually do it quite aggressively. It amuses my friends though, I don't understand why. Hahaha
Not that I'm anyone extremely awesome, because everyone's equally awesome.
As for the cooking part of the movie I was talking about well, forget it. The most complicated dish I've ever dished out in my life was a batch of Orange Chicken circa Spring 2011 in my mother's kitchen in Minnesota. I did it quite terribly. I know my mother would be the last person to ever lie about anything. But when she said it was one of the best she's tasted, I didn't believe her.
I still don't.

I can relate a little bit on the desserts part. I've been whipping up cakes and cheesecakes and cookies and brownies and pies all of that shiz ever since I was a little girl. Since I don't have a cupboard all stocked up and ready with flour and all that (my Mom is the person for that), I'll only be able to post a recipe or some foodie-blog-cliche post about my creations the next time I fly to the United States.
We have Calea, Bobs, Felicia's, Miren and such to compensate for that. Who needs my own creepy creations (I like making them in weird shapes and sizes) when we have Bacolod's best right? Iloilo has Dulgies! (Um no, I'm definitely not partial to Nothing But Desserts. But that's just me. Any thoughts?)
Anyways, tracing the nervous pathways of the human body has been hogging up much of my frontal cortex (brain center of planning, thinking and reasoning) lately. If it weren't for the gracious semestral break right now, I'd totally be making up some weird song about tracing the cardiovascular pathways.
I put human flesh first before baked goodies. <--That last statement just explained for a lot about who I am. I don't think my best friends even know I actually bake. Well, except for my childhood best friends.
So there. I guess you get the point that I've really been enjoying my life, and I just talked about something principally random, short, and simple.
Keep enjoying your life, it's none like any other's. It's been custom designed for you. Ohhh you lucky guy, you blessed girl, you fortunate fella!
I've never rolled on the floor while laughing,
Ella :D
