Really? I thought we couldn't. Let me double check that because I would love me some fruits.

What I do when I'm craving sweets, or chocolates, while on Atkins is eat those Atkins bar. Yeah, they're a bit expensive. However, I only need a bite or two and I'm satisfied. So, I finish off a bar in several sittings. Helps abate the craving.

Sundae: I eat those seasoned seaweeds in lieu of potato chips too. They're yummy, huh.

Oddly enough, I was browsing food items randomly online.
I know nothing about Vietnamese cuisine except that globally it is known for fish, and there is a little French influence due to colonialism.
So I checked out some recipes and snacks.

I was already aware of seaweed crisps (Japanese/ Taiwanese).
Talked to Mum - we got those.
I had never heard of sesame/ anchovy snacks.
Supposedly Vietnamese according to the internet.
Mum is like me and adores anchovies. Yep - get those too.

So I blame my interest in YOU for those!
Even though you never mentioned them.
See how you can influence people without even touching your keyboard?

I expect you to be making Yorkshire Puddings next week.

Or even eating them as a matter of fact. I don't eat anchovy. Seeing all those eyes on the fish scares me. Actually, I only know of those seasoned seaweed snacks recently. I know someone who introduced them to me when she came home from visiting her mom in Hawaii. It turns out the Korean supermarket that just opened a few years ago carries them. It was only in recent months that I actually tried the anchovy snacks. Hmm...Did you eat the crunchy dry ones? Shrug...anyways, it's was the Korean supermarkert's anniversary, and they were giving away lots of samples. I figured what the heck. I didn't care for it though.

Now, what is Yorkshire Puddings and are they good? Hihihi.....I will try anything, but it'll have to be after the 23rd. Me no eat sweets til after New Year.

I just looked up Yorkshire pudding recipe. It is not a sweet dessert. hehe....I will try to make it one day; however, I refuse to use lard or beef drippings. Vegetable oil it is!
