Confession time


Ok, I have a confession. I am an addict. But I'm going to say it's not a problem. We are all addicts in a similar way. The content of mine is just different. Some people have Facebook, some have computer games. Some people are addicted to YouTube, while others are addicted to 9Gag. Me? I'm addicted to something a little more unhealthy (but sometimes it can be good for you...).

I am addicted to food porn...

"What is this "food porn" you speak of?" you may find yourself asking. Well, my dear friends, behold...

Food porn holds the wonders of all sorts of magical food. Sometimes it comes with a recipe that you will never be able to follow, because it either is way too complicated, or you live in a third-world-country where you don't even get half of the ingredients!

And never mind the healthified recipes: if you are lucky to have access to the ingredients (should you know where to even find them!), the ingredients are worth quadruple the value of just buying a simple packet of biscuits. Which is much quicker than having to make all these delicious things from scratch. I want my brownies, and I want them NOW!

Ever worried about being unhealthy? Ever felt concern that the massive, fudgey, ooey, gooey, chocolate brownie mess with the melted marshmallows and chocolate sprinkles might just go straight towards making those gym pants even tighter? Never fear! Food porn won't make you fat! As I've mentioned, I'm a Calorie counter, but, luckily for me, poring over delicious food doesn't add any fat or calories or carbs to your food diary.
Apparently this light BBQ chicken pizza from
pinchofyum.com only has 150 Calories per piece...
And it looks delicious! Mmmm pizza...

Hey look! Healthy-ish food! I made this
one pot pasta from Marthastewart.com,
and it was really delicious























What does sometimes happen, however, is that it consumes your time. There is also the chance that you do end up getting fat anyway because you were too busy staring at the food, and not going to exercise instead. I find this happens a lot with looking at inspiringly slim girls as well... Too much time looking and wanting, and not enough time getting off my ass and doing something about it!


Maybe I'll go into the evils of "planning" instead of "doing" one day. Today is not that day. Instead, I'll just leave you with some deliciousness. Which, luckily for you, is silent, and does not require that you instantly shut your laptop screen should someone walk into the room. Enjoy!

Caprese lasagne roll ups from cookingclassy.com. I
don't think we have easy access to such long pieces
of lasagne here. So I thought I could find a recipe for
fresh pasta, and I can make my own! Lol that's not gonna
happen...

My brother is desperate for me to make him molten
cupcakes. I'll find a recipe similar to this Betty Crocker
one (another product we can't get here...
