Foodie’s doing the dance of joy! I made pork asado last night. Actually it’s Batangas adobo with a twist = manila adobo = asado for Batangueno’s like moi, potatoes and all!
And we had leftovers to bring to work, woohoo! I reckon I can’t keep pretending that I’ll survive on wheat thins and coffee for lunch all week so I packed me some rice and asado, uhrm, adobo today. It’s one confused dish, I know, but it’s hella yummy!
I decided to eat lunch at my cube too (laziest…). When I opened my lunch box, a colossal whiff of garlic filled my area. I normally get self-conscious about these things amongst my sandwich and salad eating co-workers but I’d rather fill their nostrils with garlic (or anchovy…or shrimp paste aka bagoong!!!...or any pickled whatever --no, not really) than pull my butt off my chair and head for the lunch room (actually, my shift coincides with the president’s, and he eats in the lunch room…and I don’t have anything interesting to tell him; if I say something nice I might be a Kiss-A$$, if I say something bad, I might earn me a spot in the bad guys list, if I talk about the weather, I might sound too boring. I get too worked up on very trivial things do I… er, I just don’t feel like it! that’s why)
Monica just had to barge into my cube to give me some of my favorite sugar-free dark chocolates from Trader Joe’s for dessert. I 
asked her if she smelled the garlic and she politely said, “Don’t even worry about it, if it does, I’m sure it will smell appetizingly good”. Good ol’ Moe… I told her what I was eating, and promised her a small pot next time. If I told her to have some today, I know she would have some. She always shares with me all these organic, fat-free, sugar-free doohickeys she comes up with. Maybe next time. I’m really hungry today. Greedy, huh!
