A year ago I was involved in a car accident. It was very scary mainly for three reasons: 1) It happened in France and I was supposed to arrive in London for our tour the next day. 2) Carlos tried to avoid the car from crashing four times, but the ice made it impossible to stay on the road. 3) The car got out of the road and turned on one side, making it incredibly difficult to get out of…
This is going to be a long post. I know that for some of you plant-based means vegan (aka products that don’t harm any animal) But what does vegan mean to you? Apparently every word means something different for everyone these days. It’s OK. I understand the food industry is trying to bring up new terms in order to get more people happy. Vegan has becom e biased for some people and plant-based seems to be a good replacement. Although…
When I got sick a couple of months ago I knew I had to change my diet. Not that I was doing anything wrong. I wasn’t drinking or smoking, I was eating a lot of veggies, walking more than 10k every day (I couldn’t run because of a knee injury). What I mean is, I was what people would consider a healthy person. But the truth is, I really wasn’t. As always, my researcher soul made me look for answers….
For over a month, I’ve been quite sick. I had to go to the hospital a couple of times and stay there for a while. I had surgery in order to solve the problem, which is something I don’t fancy too much on a Wednesday afternoon, as you can guess. It’s been two weeks since the surgery and I feel much better now. I am walking at a normal pace, I am making my own food again (I…
Great news everyone! Today they’re sending me home at last. I’ll have to do some checkups next week, but I’ll be able to keep updating the blog with my own recipes! Last supper was carrot soup and Galician style monkfish (onion, garlic, peas and paprika. Really nice grandma food) My favourite meal these days. I won’t be able to eat the empanadillas (savoury pies) but I think I’ll survive ^_^ I leave you with a selfie of me and my inhaler,…
I’ll have to spend one more night in the hospital. It seems like I got used to the oxygen by now and don’t really want to let it go. I feel like Frozen’s song was written for me and my oxygen device right now.Yesterday’s dinner surprised me. I “ordered” pasta with roasted veggies. Since 2015 I’m the proud owner of a nice pasta machine, so since then I’ve only eaten fresh homemade pasta. I’ve become a little bit reticent when…
It’s fun to start a blog that talks about food and write the first post from the hospital. I must say I’ve always been an optimistic, and looking on the bright side of life has always been what I consider my greatest virtue. I’ve been constantly reading food blogs of people that had some issues with their health and they adopted a better diet in order to recover. In my case I usually eat well whenever I cook and I’ve always…
