Food

I'm not a big fan of food. For me, food is something I eat to give me energy and nutrition. And that's just all.

I dislike eating at places I'm not familiar with unless I'm going with someone who would take the trouble to order it for me. Pemalas tau.

Luckily, I'm married to someone who is exactly like me except that he is a sweet-tooth to the extreme. (cuba letak coklat 1 bar besar sebelah die, die boleh habiskan dalam mase 1/2jam..hee)

So, we're a couple who will not spend a huge sum of money for just food [except fruits and veges]. Food is not my comfort. We will not spend rm20 for 3 scoops of ice-cream. For us, it is outrages outrageous.

And my definition of sedap is mestilah tidak tawar, pahit, terlalu manis, masin, masam atau terlalu banyak penambah perasa. [kalau lepas makan rase dahaga, means banyak penambahan perasa umami] dan tempat makan yang baik ialah bersih dan tiada lalat atau bau busuk. So when people asked me, sedap tak spaghetti tu, kalau menepati ciri2 di atas, saya cakap sedap walaupun sesetengah orang kate, spaghetti yang sedap mesti rase mcm ni, mcm ni. Tak faham ek?

When people ask us about this eating place or that eating place, the answer will always be a simple no, we never try that place yet. We don't know many nice eating places. We hate to venture. Plus, we take extra caution on every single thing that goes inside the system. So, whenever we want to go to an unfamiliar restaurant, the 1st question that'll pop into our heads is, "Is is Halal? Must do research 1st."

Jadi, salah seorang couple ala2 kuno pasal restoran2 glamer kat Malaysia ini adalah kami berdua :)

I'm currently reading "Penenang Jiwa, Pengubatan & Rawatan" translated from Imam Al-Ghazali's Mukashafah Al-Qulub. I know I have not attended any Islamic classes for quite sometime. And my KAFA Ustazah once told me, "Kalau kita tak mengisi hati ini dengan ilmu untuk suatu tempoh yang terlalu lama, nanti hati keras dan ilmu pun susah nak lekat" Something like that.

Bab 5 ialah mengenai Memerangi Nafsu dan Syaitan. Mengambil dari buku tersebut, "Bahaya yang paling besar bagi manusia ialah syahwat perut"

Dan Rasulullah SAW bersabda:
"Janganlah engkau membunuh hati dengan banyak makan dan tidur. Sesungguhnya hati akan mati bagaikan tanaman jika tergenang"

I have learned this since primary school. And Ma always scolded me when I slept too much mase sekolah dulu. Tiap kali mesti keluar ayat di atas. heh

Currently, I'm on my healthy eating routine. I ate more veges and fruits, less carbs and at least 2 litres of plain warm water. I slept less but didnt do any work-out so far and miraculously my weight is dropping every week. Furthermore, I feel more energetic. I'm loving it.

Plus work-out routine starting next week, lagi 2-3bulan boleh turun 10kg tak? Hehehehe
