50 DAYS OF ABSOLUTE INDULGENCE

      The fussy eater that I have grown up to be, I fit into my skinny jeans once again since the lent. Helloo sexy butt! But rather than joining in on my excitement everybody at home keep bombarding me all the time with sage words on how to fatten up and regain my lost healthy complexion which I never knew I had to begin with.

     I totally hate being tricked and bullied into doing something, but chech's promised me that all the guys are for sure going to turn me down coz of the sickly mess she claims I am beginning to look now... No offense to Phoebe, but I can't stand smelly cats, so aging into that old maid who lives in her smelly apartment with a dozen smelly cats is out of question. And if I am growing out of my skinny jeans I might as well do that in style. That's why against my better judgement I've decided on following up on fifty days of lent with fifty days of indulgence. So off I go, to cook me some real nice food and stuff my face with it.



DAY 1 - WEDNESDAY, 8th APRIL

whole duck roast

Though it didn't make things any less gross, I imagined myself as the Khaleesi from GoT as I was sticking my hand inside the duck and pulling out its bloody heart and lungs when dressing it.

DAY 2 - THURSDAY, 9th APRIL

single crust banana pie

Nothing fancy about it, excepting the shape. Its a heart! Why people decided on calling that the heart shape I got no clue. The crust needs more practice

DAY 3 - FRIDAY, 10th APRIL

steamed chicken momos

Its a shame I don't have chopsticks. And that I don't know to use them properly. And that I start sentences with 'And' now.

DAY 4 - SATURDAY, 11th APRIL

grilled fish in lemon sauce 

Coming out with one hit dish after another, three days in a row got into my head. Couldn't do justice to that poor damn thing's life. I grilled it in that blasted lemonfishingsauce.

DAY 5 - SUNDAY, 12th APRIL

sticky date pudding

It was to be a sticky date 'pudding', which ended up looking like a giant 'donut', with the texture of that of a 'cake'. If it weren't for mom's timely intervention, I could share pics of me kneeling here ever-so-piously with burnt offerings for the Gods!

DAY 6 - MONDAY, 13th APRIL

chicken something

Landline dead, wifi down, didn't get to check any recipes. So I went with my instincts with this result, think I might call it chicken69 coz there are juicy chicks on top and rice underneath.

DAY 7 - TUESDAY, 14th APRIL
(the cheat day)

bavarian chocolate & cotton candy

Though not Sabbath, took the seventh day off from kitchen. No pain only weight gain today.

DAY 8 - WEDNESDAY, 15th APRIL

mac and cheese

Dress classy, dance cheesy. Food too super cheesy.

DAY 9 - THURSDAY, 16th APRIL

chicken pizza

Olives are an acquired taste I guess. I pick them out from my food and arrange them neatly on the side usually. Why then did I put some on my pizza? Coz I am fancy like that.

DAY 10 - FRIDAY, 17th APRIL

grilled chicken

Chicken in any form I eat.

DAY 11 - SATURDAY, 18th APRIL

chocolate and nut cookies

When I am driving to town which is towards north direction, the suns on my right side the east. When returning back south in the evening, the sun's in the west but again on my right. I have slowly baked my right hand to a shade of chocolate cookie over the years.

DAY 12 - SUNDAY, 19th APRIL

spaghetti & meat balls

Incorporating Italian. Because THE GODFATHER!

DAY 13 - MONDAY, 20th APRIL

chicken burrito

From Italian to Mexican. Coz why the hell not.

DAY 14 - TUESDAY, 21st APRIL

half pepperoni

Its the return of the pizza! Having a late realization that pizza too was Italian. But not going to judge myself today for being a dumbass as I just got the call I had been most eagerly waiting for. Starting job from dayafter with the leading mallu publication house in their finance wing!

DAY 15 - WEDNESDAY, 22nd APRIL

black forest

Extraordinarily joyous occasions calls for a phenomenal cake. Headed for an awesome career start. Boys and marriage can weight! Its only been 15 days but I need to pull of a grown up image in the office so it might be in my own best interest to put a coma to this venture. 'Coma' coz if they kick me out I can always resume from day 16. lol ;)
