food, glorious food... !!!

It has been a busy weekend!

For the weekend that passed, it was meal after meal and food after food. I have not eaten three full meals for a long time. Once upon a time, we could actually burn up the food and energy very quickly. Now if we have three meals a day, it just sits in our stomach and intestines.

But then, 'eating' was not just about consuming food. Eating has become a 'fellowship'. So it has been a long continuous round of fellowship and gathering, though at a much more leisurely pace.

Incidentally, we are now smack in to the eighth month of the Lunar Calendar. Good and lucky month to be married in. So there will be wedding dinners almost every weekend. This will stop for another three weeks ie the eating! Which will hardly give us enough time to 'loose' some fat before the Christmas and New Year celebration and binge comes around!

Sigh! What a good problem! I am not complaining! But it is a bit too excessive(?), especially so when we think of the number of people who are starving!
