Sweet Treats









Writing for this particular post has been moved far too many times already.  The want to be able to experience more and take more pictures before finally releasing a feature on desserts has always put an invisible pull.  Until the realization that I can always add on a series or have solo features in the future came.
Yes, let it be known that I am a sweet-a-holic.  I just love sweet stuff.  And whenever I visit a food place, I would almost always look at the dessert portion of every menu to check on what's available.  I've even had those experiences of leaving restaurants without eating just because a favorite dessert I was craving was not available.  For those not into anime or manga, the guy on your right is 'L' from the series Death Note.  He's one character that was almost always seen eating sweets.  According to the author, it was created as such since he needs the sugar to 'fuel' his intellect.  Meaning, he uses too much glucose for his brain to function (he's very intelligent).  Hahaha, I wish we had the same reason, but for me, it's just that I love sweets.  From chocolates, to cakes, to pastries, to sweet drinks, ha, I can almost hear my blood boil.  I am so lucky that I was born in a family who loves eating and one that has many of its members able to cook and bake so I am able to try many stuff.  Traveling has also given me opportunity to indulge on sweet offerings the world has on its plate.  Here are just some of those I was able to salvage... From here on, I will make it a point to capture them and re-establish my collection of all things sweet!

  7. This is very sweet blog. I love all the sweets here. As I read along some lines in this blog, some lines also from a popular song, "Sweets for My Sweets" flashback in my mind. Then, I was obliged to sing: "Sweets of my sweets, sugar for my honey. Your sweet kiss thrilled me so..." Sweets if not taken so much or beyond our body needs are good for our health and body.
