Confessions of a foodie whose caught a stomach bug

God are you listening? Am I fulfilling a penance of my past life karma? I love food. Meaning I really love food. Meaning if food was a man I'd marry him. And to be sitting at a table at Trishna with all the exotic seafood dashing across my eyes is torture of he highest order in my view. It would have been less painful to whip me with a whip of nails rather than have me sitting in front of a butter pepper garlic crab at Trishna smelling so awesome and delicious shine to the texture leaving my mouth watering and me salivating.

Then comes the tandoori rawas. One of my favourite fish, but no val u can't touch this! The smell of the fish and the masala was just starring at me saying "aren't u gonna try?" Just a little bit?" And I go like sigh! And I try! And my mouth is burning my throat is crying saying what the f...

Ok so u must be wonder why can't I eat. I can't because I caught this bacteria called Helecobacter pylori- a bacteria u catch through drinking water or through raw food. It hides in your system and gets activated regularly. It feeds on your heamoglobin. That's terrible. As u cannot eat, you throw up, and you run to the loo like a comet is falling from the sky at 500 Kms per hour. So there u go, not a great bacteria to have. Apparently it takes a year to get out of your system. Jeess I say that's disgusting.

I am devastated! I should just hibernate for that long. But hey on the brighter side I am pure from within. I have not an ounce of shit in my body and that a fact in everyway! Boiled veggies and yogurt make up my diet and I am loving it a each day passes by. And and may I tell you that I have lost 10 kgs and look like a million bucks. So hey I shouldn't be complaining. From a foodie I can go to a hottie and extend the facet of my blog ad start writing a single at 35 diary. I am sure that will be as interesting as my food escapades.

But yeah, I long for food a glass of wine and sometimes a bottle of chilled beer. Those are not too much to as. I am slowly but surely getting there. This Christmas will be a truly pure one. But I am going start my sweet making and will fill you in on every delicacy I manage to get on that amazing Christmas plate.
