So it is the first post and already I find it difficult to have time to be at home to load up photos. Luckily I always have some form of camera with me to take photos!
Friday afternoon was the day I decided to do this food blog. I thought might as well jump right into it by cooking dinner! I had already organised a dinner date with a friend, which automatically meant "lets go to a nice restaurant that we haven't discovered yet"... when I suggested to cook, he instantly said "uh no." But after much nagging, we decided to cook our own pizzas!
Me, being a poser.
The shit we eat. I loved that chocolate bavarian!
You are never stingy when it comes to making your own food!
Masterpiece!
Cooking our own food did make me think about what I want to put in my food. I specifically chose ingredients that would make me feel 'healthy' - having avocado made me feel good ahaha. But then I smothered it with mozzarella cheese which most likely canceled out the healthiness. What I realised though, I still never took notice of the nutritional labels or anything. Even when I went to buy the bbq chicken, I didn't even care less whether it was free range or not. There was just that one chicken, I was hungry and nothing else mattered. In all honesty, I have no idea whether my meal was healthy or not. The only thing that made me feel good was the fact that I could put as much cheese and chicken on there as possible and that I knew what was in my food.
Oh and just for shits and giggles, we found this piece of ham that made our night.
It's even got a fringe!!
Saturday is a day I rarely get to eat. Starting work at 8am, running around the house getting ready because I am most likely hungover/tired from lack of sleep means that I never get time to make myself breakfast. To be honest, I don't even make time to make my own breakfast. It's just so much easier to say "i'll just buy it when I am there". And it is easier! I get more time to sleep in and I don't have to worry about searching for food in the fridge. So what did I eat for breakkie? A bacon and egg roll. Yeah I am ashamed. With a chai latte.
Looks pretty gross. But it filled me up!
Obviously, for lunch I didn't bring anything from home so once again I bought food from the cafe opposite the store. I don't know why, but I wanted chips and a burger so badly. I felt like shit afterwards. I felt fat too. When will I learn?
Mmm cheeseburger with chips. So fatty.
The funny thing is, when I look at the actual food, it's fine and I can't wait to eat it. As soon as I take the photo with my phone, oh dear god, I just feel like shit!
Saturday night dinners... Its either a full on dinner or just nibbles because alcohol seems to be more important. Yes I sound like a trashbag. But i'm only 21 once! Hah, so knowing what would happen to me if I drank alcohol and had nothing for dinner, I quickly raided my friend's fridge to find a microwave lasgane. Done. A quick dinner that will put food in my tummy and keep me from passing out at 12am.
I hear about how bad these are for you, but I really didn't care. As long as I ate
something, that's all that mattered to me. Oh Nadia, don't judge me!
You'd think i'd have snacks in between meals but I just didn't have anytime to find something to snack on! I swear, the days I work are the days I rarely pig out.
Sunday morning, oh Sunday morning. Hungover. Gross. Need water. Need greasy food. Argh. Luckily for me, I had an amazing full time lover who isn't a fat shit like me and is slightly more health concsious than me. Every day he basically eats porridge - boring, I knoooow! But for me it's good because whenever I sleep over, I get to have a healthy breakfast! And it makes me feel so good! Even when I drench it with honey. Today he was lovely enough to bring it into bed before we started work together :)
Ok, i'm not going to lie. That looks like vomit. Covered in pee.
But it was really healthy!
Once again, not bringing any food to work, I went downstairs and grabbed a burger meal again. Schnitzel on a roll and wedges. Hey, I was hungover and I needed fatty food to cure my hangover. But to be honest, after taking a bite of that oil oozing schnitzel, I just did not feel good about myself. I couldn't even drink that free can of Coke they gave me. I don't know, just the thought of eating so much oily food and probably having a heap of alcohol in me just made me feel like I was going to die early. I go through these phases.
An early heart attack :)
Dinner was with friend again, this time at an Italian resturant. Mmmm the pasta was AMAZING. Prawn linguine, my favourite <3!>
One day, I want to cook my own prawn linguine...
Soooo good! I had to undo my top button of my pants though...
Annnndd thats a wrap for tonight! I did not know I could talk so much about what I ate the past couple of days. This is going to be pretty interesting!!
Nobody judge me!

Keep up the work, this will be a very interesting experiment indeed. I also think the blog format works really well
