Woke up early today because the boyfriend kept on trying to ruin my sleep. We both have fucked up body clocks and unfortunately, they weren't in sync yesterday. Hence all the bullying while I was sleeping and he was wide awake. Couldn't go back to sleep so I made breakfast! We had Enoki mushrooms wrapped in bacon, scrambled eggs with basil, onions and tomatoes, broccoli salad and coconut juice!
Work this week was extra toxic and extremely difficult. Two months before my birthday and this lingering feeling of unhappiness haunts me every time. I know, I know. You'll tell me this happens every year, months before my birthday. I know that, too! But I can't seem to get rid of this annoying and unpleasant feeling. I just had a haircut, hoping I'm one step closer to finally letting go--of that dreaded feeling, amongst other things.
It's quite depressing how I haven't been able to cook a decent meal for 2 weeks now. We were supposed to do the groceries last week but the boyfriend and I ended up sleeping instead. Work has really been stressful and toxic for both of us, we'd choose a whole day's sleep over a party or drinks any day. We're going grocery shopping today so I'm excited! I've prepared my list and my recipes. Bibi is still sleeping so I thought of squeezing in a quick post for you guys. I made this a few weeks ago, didn't have any meat on the fridge so I just tossed all of the leftover veggies together.
The boyfriend and I just got back from the majestic islands of Boracay, and, can I just say going back was so heartbreaking. If I could land a job there, you'd see me move in a heartbeat! I'll be talking more about the short vacay we just had on another blog post. For now, I'd like to psych myself into thinking that a salad makes the world a better place. If I want to get back in shape, eyes on the fucking prize--err, salad. I have to forget about the sumptuous meals we had in Boracay. Huhu Why is life so difficult??
Anyway, let me share this recipe I did a few weeks back. I was experimenting with balsamic vinegar and surprisingly, it tastes awesomesauce with Salmon. I scoured the intarwebz for the perfect balsamic vinaigrette recipe, but I had to adjust everything to my own liking.
Is it just me or the cold not-so-summer nights are finally over? If so, I'm hating this weather. Can't we have the easy breezy weather until March? No? Okay. Anyway, we've been feeling the heat since the weekend (jackets and boots no more!), the boyfriend and I were binging on salad for like a whole week. It's easy to prepare and it's very light, perfect for the tropical weather.
I already have several salad recipes on queue but let me share this first because it's the easiest! You just put all of the ingredients together and voila, you have a decent meal.
