FOOOOOD!!

I must admit, this is the oddest blog that I have written so far - But I love food! 

Comfort food is biological. It sends happy signals to the brain. Its probably why I'm always happy. I love food. I can't get enough. They say I eat like a horse. Damn straight I do.

My first word was 'food' in Chinese. I think we were meant to be together. Ha. 
The downfall of loving food is that I always have a big appetite, therefore I end up spending so much in supermarkets. Sometimes, the food doesn't even last two days when it is meant to last a week.

I love food so much. I was brought up in an environment where food is eaten for pleasure and it's healthy too because most Chinese dishes are steamed. 

When I was at home, I came back in the Easter Holidays for three weeks and the house was empty. I saw the light in our fridge for the first time. No joke. There was nothing. Were they trying to starve me?! 

I don't believe in dieting but if people need to diet then do it sensibly. I don't like the idea of losing weight through  starvation. That's not healthy and it's dangerous. I think people can eat what they want, as long as they exercise so that they don't have to worry so much about how much they've consumed. 

I don't watch what I eat most of the time. I probably will get fat one day. I'll be fat and happy. Hehe. My favourite dish is a roast dinner. Made by my mother. I can't get enough of it. I do love British food, especially Southern grub like a good Cornish pasty. Like most of my family members, we've been brought up with steamed fish, roast pork and loads of vegetables that most English families would love to tuck into. But we've gotten fed up and so it's a nice change to experience what other cultures nom on. Like Apple pie. Mmm.

I will teach my children to love food. I won't let them be just subjected to fast food, as tasty as it is, I will cook a mixture of eclectic cuisines inspired from my British-Chinese roots. That's one advantage of being Oriental. 

Our food is made with love. Nom nom nom nom nom.
