A Devil In The Head
Lemme see, hmmm…….I like – ice creams ler, cakes ler, chocolates ler, ice kacang ler, tong sui ler…..Sei mou, ALL these foods are supposed to be on the ‘NO DO LIST’ and yet I’m still feeding on it. And today, my body gave a very, very strong reminder to me to stay off the above foods.
I realized a many years ago that I cannot tolerate coffee, chocolates, cakes (especially cheesecakes) and santan. As soon as I take any of these, my body will react with horrible, head-splitting, throbbing headaches. So I have actually stopped taking the above foods long, long time ago…..until, until quite recently when I started to curi-curi makan chocolates again. And hey, I felt fine – no headaches or whatsoever and so I completely forgot that chocolates was ever in my ‘NO DO LIST’. And today, I paid dearly for my own folly. I had greedily swallowed a few squares of yummy chocolates in the early afternoon and merrily went about my business for the day but sadly had to turn for home before the day is up because the nasty ‘old devil’ of a headache decided to visit pronto.
Quickly downed two paracetamol and plonked myself on the living room floor and tried to placate that devil in my head. No sooner had I dozed off, a call came in. Aiyah….I had to haul myself up to send some documents over to nearby Kelana Jaya. On my way home, I felt the headache no more. Yippee…Yay..Yay...devil chau ledi!
Did some household chores and cooked a simple dinner. Wanted to blog-hop a bit but the devil re-visited. I want my pillow now.
Nite-Nite, Folks.

Those are "heaty" foods. Used to get it when I drank MILO...or gorge on chocolates. Something like heat stroke! Drink lots of water after eating or opt for "cooling" drinks and stuff. When I was young, my head would go spinning whenever I ate "too kha" (pork leg);maybe it was too fat! But now, ooo...nothing can keep me away! Drool! Drool!!!
Ayio.....poor nyonya. Luckily i dun like to eat those things..
Get well soon ya
Get well soon ya
death by chocolate..better than death by cancer ;-)!
Don't curi-curi so much.
You will pay dearly later.
Just an advise. No offense, nyonya dear.
