How is it possible that my waistline is an inch more than what it was last week? Let’s take stock of this week’s activities, shall we?

- This week has been all about work, work, and more work. And as we all know, it’s nothing short of criminal to work without sustenance, so I’ve had bags of Goldilocks Caramel Popcorn and those uber-yummy Dentelle Au Chocolat cookies from Don Merto’s Les Chocolateries within reach. That’s only natural, right? Right???

- We’ve had endless meetings with the real estate people and some folks from PAG-IBIG this week, thanks to the impending house purchase. This means endless buffets at The Port, the restaurant my mum manages. But again, it’s only natural. After all, one can’t expect these people to help without at least feeding ‘em (and ones’ self) lechon, baked oysters, pochero, kare-kare, and grilled pork, to name a few.

- We’ve discovered that you can buy prime rib-eye steaks from the Rustan’s supermarket at about P200 (approximately $4) a kilo. It’ll be all wrong not to take advantage of this and not have two steaks each for dinner.

So what was the question again? Tee hee.

Looks like it’s back to the old reliable. Half a dose of the world’s best diet pills should do the trick. Now to find my supplier from eBay…
