Ah, it is Sunday already! It had been bliss these past 5 days. No stress, eating healthy, passing out toxins and spending time in the garden. Really, I won't mind another 5 days. I have also managed to do some housekeeping but the curtains have not been washed, the window grills have not been touched and oh, the windows haven't been cleaned! There is no end to housework, but I have got to go back to work tomorrow. Sobs!
I feel energized and clear headed after 4 days of detox. Today is day 5. I was in the kitchen at 6:00am and the neighborhood cat was at it again. Why do cats in heat make so much noise? Good thing I was already awake. And this is what I cooked for my family :
Fried spaghetti with meat, onions, green peppers and cabbage. I may be detoxing but I can't expect the rest of the clan to follow suit, right? And yesterday, I baked this :
Cheesecake with Nutella. Had it sliced early this morning. Just because I am on a detox, doesn't mean that my family will be deprived of their cheesecake :) I mean, you can bake cheesecake during a detox but just don't eat it. Ahem! So, PH! Did you sneak a bite of that cheesecake? Who? Me? Hey, look, look, quails eggs! Ghee... hee...hee...hee...
After coming back from Aeon, I decided to call it a day. No more detox. I did have one session of coffee enema this morning and everything went smoothly. I feel good, I feel fresh and there is no reason to prolong the program. I had a simple lunch today. Grilled fish with some greens stir fried with garlic. It tasted so good!
So, that's it from me. I will be back posting my usual recipes and bakes. And thank you for bearing with me these last few days.
Congrats Phong Hong! Already knew that there's no problem for you to complete the whole detox course :) Btw, thanks for sharing your interesting stories esp your experienced with ghosts, hehehehe...
ReplyDeleteHi Ivy! Actually, mid-morning yesterday I decided that 4 days is enough :) But not bad lah, I am feeling very fresh! And thanks for reading my stories!
DeleteI hope you saved a slice of that delicious cheesecake! You can eat it tmr to celebrate your successful detox. Pity u couldnt make it to the gathering today. Would have loved to meet u in person.
ReplyDeleteYen, I ate the cheesecake...yaarghhhh!!!! Hope that there will be another gathering and I would love to meet you too :)
Deletecongratulations Phong Hong, you made it!
ReplyDeleteso envy you lah... when can I have 5 days of me time :)
Thanks, Alice! When your kids grow up you can catch up on your me time hee..hee..
DeleteI cannot get myself to go for detox for 5 days. 1 or 2 days are ok. I salute you. Anyway, your Fried Spaghetti looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteAmy, I did 4 days instead of 5 but I consider that good lah. The first time, I gave up after 2 days.
DeleteHi Phong Hong! Welcome back and glad that everything's fine for you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alvin! I am feeling very good!
DeleteOh yes... Just to let you know that I'm encountering problem visiting your blog using my mobile phone... I keep getting redirected to some global survey site.... I suspect that's some virus by spammers... not sure it was my phone or your site.. but I do not have problem accessing other blogs.. :(
ReplyDeleteOh, really? Hope it is OK by now.
DeleteBecause the male tom cats would go, "Maaaaa......uuuuu????" and the female felines would reply. "Tak maaaa...uuuuu!!!!" LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteHah! Hah! Hah! I hate it when they do that especially late at night. Really disturb my sleep :(
DeleteNow, now...stay away from those quail eggs! They say one is equivalent to how many hen's eggs as far as the cholesterol goes...or is it because they are so small and we would have at least half a dozen at one go?
ReplyDeleteOh? I didn't know that. That's not fair isn't it, I mean they are so small. I don't eat them often so I guess I should be OK :)
DeleteHi Phong Hong,
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to know the result of your detox program? Any progress so far?
Zoe
Hi Zoe! It was good. I passed out a lot of greenish blackish stuff (sorry for too much info LOL!) and now I feel light and fresh. All in all I am happy. The thing now is to maintain healthy eating and more exercise.
DeleteHi Phong Hong,
ReplyDeleteSo nice to be out of detox! And you have done great!
Thanks, Joyce! I feel great!
DeleteHi Phong Hong, congratulation to you, finally you succeeded your detox program. You must be very fresh and feel lighter by now. So next detox... next Hari Raya? :)
ReplyDeleteThe nutella cheesecake look awesome.
Best regards.
Hi Amelia! I'll have to check next year when I can take at least 5 days off. The Nutella cheescake needed tweaking. I'll be baking it again.
DeleteYou have very good self control, I don't think I can do it lol! Congrats and looking forward to seeing your delicious meals and bakes again:D
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jeannie. My self control not that good lah that's why I gave up on day 5 hah! hah!
DeleteOkay , your post made me laugh so hard ! Detox and cheesecake goes hand in hand , right lol
ReplyDeleteHah! Hah! Don't follow my example, Anne!
DeletePH!!! Welcome back..haha miss you lar...Congratulation berjaya with your Detox Mendetox ni...Tabik spring to you lar PH!! :) ... and Selamat Hari Raya to you too. Here in LA, aiyo, macam takda apa apa lah...i just masak simple aje for my kids and family. Anyway, am soo happy you are back. And yeah, that ghost story, buat i meremang bulu roma. Nak share at my blog? Aduiii....PH..i sedang working on editing my writting. Not as good as you PH. I suka the kind of writing you do. To me very laid back and so relax. I love it. PH, share with with me how is raya there?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Yuss! Over here I was at home the whole time so I didn't know how was the Raya celebration. Rugi buat detox masa Raya. Tak dapat rasa lemang dan rendang. Kempunan! Next year, schedule time lain pulak. Your writing OK, mah? Share lah cerita hantu.....
DeleteCongratulations on your detox program, Phong Hong! When did I miss this?...I must be slacking with my comments and visits. Hope it helped in the 'long run'...meaning for the future; health wise, of course!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elisabeth! I was feeling really energised and fresh. I will make sure I keep up on a yearly basis to maintain good health. Touch wood!
DeleteCongrats! Good that you are feeling all good and fresh!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I hope to keep this up :)
