Deepavali Feast @ The Saffron

Deepavali: The Feast

After a traumatizing Saturday, a gathering with the gang was probably what I need to get my mind off my new-found obesity. Even if it was an impromptu decision to invade Jack&Keith's humble abode and countdown to Deepavali!

So, what did a not so little fat monkey do with everyone else...EAT! The host and hostess prepared a good meal - authentic banana-leave rice dinner complete with papadum! How apt! Obviously we enjoyed ourselves so much, we practically finished two batch of rice and all the dishes on the table. Wiped out I tell you.

It also seems like my newly declared physical status hasn't put me off from face-stuffing myself silly. Instead, it has inspired me to make some dessert for the dinner. I figured why not help spread the fatness around. Sharing is caring after all. And, I did remember to put in 10 blocks of butter. Just like Nigella instructed. She and her fully-developed tush would have been proud of me!

(O.K, this mainly obese monkey will head back to the gym 'tomorrow'. Really!)

  4. Somehow, considering the position you were in, it might have been more appropriate to have these speech bubbles:

    "Oh.My.Gawd. Have u seen the 50 UGLIEST beefcakes?"

    "F*ck me now!"
