The rainy days are here again (well,at least in this part of the world). This season is a welcome relief to some unless of course the rains are as what is called “torrential” and the howling winds able to uproot trees with trunks as wide as four men’s arms linked together.
So the late Weekly Question is about food. Yes…. food.
What is your comfort food during the rainy season?

This morning after reading some sites on diet pill reviews and collecting info for an article I am writing, I was also “listening” to a local television show and it so happened that the hosts and their guest were talking about Beyonce’s detox drink called the Maple Syrup Diet.
Maple Syrup Diet seems to be an interesting concept but I have learned through reading that this has been recommended and introduced more than thirty years ago.
I just do not know if it is a good decision for anyone who will do the Maple Syrup Diet. Why? Because as long as the diet is ongoing, no solid food should pass between the lips of the dieter. I wonder if this is safe.
I want to try this for the detoxifying effect. Maybe the once a week plan would work well for me.I hope it would.
There is just one thing though: where could I possibly buy real maple syrup here?

Simula pa lang ng paggawa ng malaking kalye malapit sa amin.
Noong Lunes ay isinarado na ang daan na dinadaanan namin kaya iikot na kami sa matrapik na palengke. Pero sige lang, pagkatapos naman nito (kung matatapos agad) ay magiging mas maaliwalas ang aming pag-uwi. Wala naman sana problema kung hindi nagsasara ng gate yung katabing subdibisyon mula 10am – 5pm at 10pm – 6am para hindi na kaya naipilitan kami umiikot ng malayo. Hmph.
Importante ang daan na ito kasi mismo si PGMA (S)cares ay dumalo sa groundbreaking ceremonies noong nakaraang buwan (kung tama ang pagkakatanda ko).
Pasensiya na po, malabo, umaandar kasi kami at may tint pa ang salamin.
Anyway… (pakibasa po hanggang bago magdulo, nandun ang climax)
Ang major road na ito ay mag-uugnay ng Mindanao Avenue sa NLEX or North Luzon Expressway. Heto ang isa pang link tungkol sa project.
Alam nyo ba kung magkano ang 2.8 kilometer na daang ito? 1.5 billion pesos lang naman.
Kung ito ay idi-divide sa 2.8 kilometers, pumapatak na 535 million++ pesoses for less than a kilometer ang presyo ng daan na yan. Sosyal di ba?
Twing! Twing! (Tunog ng cash register yan, lol!)
Swine flu cases are on the rise. Whether the danger is imagined and/or real, we do not relax and let our guard down, especially where the children are concerned.

Meron kong tulay dito at dito, ang tulay na nagdadala sa akin palapit sa tahanan ng aking mga magulang. Parehong tulay it pero magkaiba ang perspective sa pagkakakuha at interpretasyon 🙂 I have two different perspectives and interpretations of the same bridge which brings me closer to home in the two links I have made.
Ang tulay sa ibaba ay isa sa mga bagong gawang tulay. Ito ay bago, malinis pa at may nakasulat na GMA SCARES, este, CARES pala na hindi ko na isinama sa larawan. The bridge in the photo below is an almost newly-built bridge. This is new, its clean and has GMA SCARES, errr, CARES written on it.
Bakit nga may bagong tulay dito? Hindi pa naman mukhang sira ang dating tulay, sa katunayan, ang bagsik ng Pinatubo (nandun sa cluster ng mga bundok) at mga lindol ay nakayanan nito. Hindi kasi nahukay ang mga buhangin kaya ang tubig sa ilog ay nawala at nagmukhang disyerto mula sa buhanging galing sa lahar.
Imbes na hukayin, nagtayo na lang ng bagong tulay. Galing no?
Ano nga ang sabi ng mga pulitiko?
“Kapag ako ay iboboto ninyo ipagagawa ko ang mga kalsada. Kahit walang mga ilog, magpapatayo tayo ng mga tulay!”
Yan po ang tulay ng kaunlaran.
Bow.
