Chocolates Are Perfect Gifts

Filed under: Food Galore, Info Corner — Tags: — rachel @ 10:58 am

I have a sweet tooth. I always anticipate eating desserts. I think it’s the best part of the meal. I have a great weakness for chocolates which I am sure many can relate to. I love eating chocolates. I think of a piece of chocolate as a nice reward after a tiring day. At home, there are always chocolates available. It’s a wonderful and delectable treat.

Chocolates are also perfect for gifts. It’s perfect for any occasion. I love giving chocolates as birthday gifts. In fact, I just gave my college friend a box of assorted chocolates on her birthday. She told me how much she appreciated that sweet gesture.

My Favorite Refreshment

Filed under: Food Galore — Tags: , — rachel @ 11:33 pm

One of my favorite Filipino refreshments is sago’t gulaman. It a sweetened iced beverage with Sago (tapioca) and diced gulaman (jelly). It’s perfect with snacks, meals or simply as it is.

WW :: My Parents’ 36th Wedding Anniversary

I can’t help but add some words to my Wordless Wednesday entry this week. I’m just so happy because after so many years we had the privilege of celebrating my parents anniversary with them.  They are staying with us for a vacation. If only I can slow down the time so we can be together longer. They are scheduled to go back to the States next week. I feel sad thinking about it but I’m just glad to spend quality time with them while they are here.

Chocolates and Happy Hormones

Filed under: Food Galore — Tags: — rachel @ 3:58 pm

Here’s a quote from the Book of Divine Indulges by Elaine Sherman:

“Chocolate causes certain endocrine glands to secrete hormones that affect your feelings and behavior by making you happy. Therefore, it counteracts depression, in turn reducing the stress of depression. Your stress-free life helps you maintain a youthful disposition, both physically and mentally. So, eat lots of chocolate!”

After reading that it made me crave for some chocolates. Last Christmas my mom sent me some Godiva chocolates. Oh, I wish she would send me some more. The sooner the better. :)

Sweet Craving

Filed under: Food Galore — Tags: , — rachel @ 7:55 pm

There are days when I simply crave for something sweet.  When it comes to sweet cravings, nothing comes close to chocolate. In this case, my hubby was nice enough to buy me some crinkles and a slice of delicious chocolate cake.

How about you? What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you get a sweet craving?
