Provender Delight

No doubt that one of the best kinds of recreation is food trip. If you are so bored of eating the same food everyday then take an adventure with a variety of delicacies!

Eating never goes out of style. In fact 2 out 3 people love eating. Food is a very broad term for it can have many examples for as long as it is edible it is considered as "food". You can do many experiments withs spices, vegetables, fruits ad some other ingredients to make a very good and tasty product.

Lets not deal more on the eating itself but on interest-based kind of cuisine.

For Filipino food taste, the LECHON ranks first.
     The Lechon is actually a popular dish in the Philippines which features a whole roasted pig that's cooked over charcoal. We prepare it whenever a special occasion is being celebrated such s fiestas, birthdays, weddings etc. Before being roasted, special seasonings and spices are being added by us. Then the entire pig is skewered on a large stick provided that its entrails are already removed. Then we roll it over and cook over a pit of charcoal. The pig is roasted on all sides for several hours until done. The way it was cooked gives the dish it's featured quality which is the crispy pork skin. I can say that the meat is really tender. You will feel it's delectable taste when you match it with rice, for sure you'll be eating a lot. 

For Korean food likers, try the best dish Korean dish I've tried, Samgyupsal and Gimbap.
     Samgyupsal  is also a popular korean dish which can served either at home or at restaurants that special on meat dishes. It consists of thick pork strips and usually cooked on a grill with pa muchim, kimchi, mushrooms, garlic, onions and consumed altogether. This dish is usually served with side dishes like leafy vegetables(lettuce, spinach etc.) and a dab of ssamjang (usually made of gochujang or dwenjang). In korean restaurants, you'll be the one to grill the pork in the grill located in the middle of the table. Although it takes time for it to be cooked, I find it fun while grilling the meat. The cooked samgyupsal is really juicy and a bit crispy. You can also create your own way on how to eat it according to your tongue's desire by adding some spices or vegetables.  I like to have the meat rolled inside a lettuce together with kimchi soup while having rice as a partner.

For Japanese food explorers, you should try my favorites, Sushi and Ramen.
    Sushi is one of the most popular dish among the Japanese themselves. It is actually a dish consisting of cooked vinegared rice usually combined with other ingredients like veggies, seafood and topical fruits. I do prepare it with either brown or white rice. Sushi can have a variety of types according to how it is prepared like nigiri, gunkan, norimaki, inari etc. Sushi is commonly served with wasabi and I sometimes add broccoli to add flavor.

    Ramen is a noodle soup dish. Ramen is actually my favorite Japanese dish. The taste of the noodles and soup is very different from ordinary noodles. The soup is rich in seafood or meat taste. It is widely available to everyone for it is not that expensive. Ramen is classified according to different soup base like the shoyu, shio, miso etc. 

    

For Western food tongues, you can have lots of choices such as pasta, pizza, burger and a lot more choices. Lastly, you can just create your own kind of dessert or snack. You can have cakes and cup cakes of different flavors. You can have brownies, cookies, biscuits, gelatins, pastries, ice creams, pies, puddings, and candies. You can actually mix it in accordance to your taste or add fruits to it in order to make it more creative and more pleasing to the mouth.

To make food trip at its best, be with your friends, family or loved ones. As you eat and enjoy the food, you can actually have more fun while chatting and sharing stories. This is an effective way to unwind and be happy.

Now that were done with food, our next target will focus on Reading and Writing. This is another example of Indoor Recreation which can actually develop the way we think and can lead us to a new world. This is also a good stress reliever tho for this focuses on self expression and art. So stay in lined with my next blog and let's make that life the best version!

Recreation Time!

The most effective way to beat boredom is engaging into recreational activities. 

Come out and discover the happiness that life brings!

Recreation is actually a broad term, it can be classified into a variety of sub units (sports, travel, exercise, food trip, studies, hobbies etc.) which will be emphasized in my next blogs, but for now lets focus on the generality. Recreation is actually an activity for leisure. It's something some people, like me, do to relax and have fun which helps us not just physically but also biologically. It improves our general well-being and minimizes the risk of having illnesses. Mainly, the point of recreation is to add flavor and surprise to our tedious life. Everyday, we work, study and sleep- this is so dull, but with recreational activities we can somehow feel pleasure and relief from stress. I, myself, have proven that recreation is really one of the best stress-relievers in the world. I prefer doing recreational activities with my family and friends than having it alone, because for me, I find it happier when there's someone whom I could have my thoughts and enjoyment shared.

There are two types of Recreation that I do; Indoor Recreation and Outdoor Recreation

• Indoor Reacreation is a kind of recreation in which the activities are done inside walls. For this, I do activities such as watching TV, movies, reading books, listening to music, playing board games, having pajama parties, customizing used clothing, food trip, engaging in indoor sports, embroidering, creating handcrafted products etc. which can actually brighten up my mood and at the same time develop my weal . These are just easy ways and things to do because you don't need to go out and spend more. As an advice, it's best to do these pastimes with your family, friends or loved ones because it's more fun when you have somebody whom you can share the excitement and laughter. Now, why don't you give it a try! 

Even inside the house, we can still do recreational stuffs!

• Outdoor Recreation is another kind in which activities are done outside walls, either under the heat of the sun or under the shade of the trees or even at night. I could say that this type requires more energy, preparation and time but gives more amusement. For this, I've tried swimming, outdoor sports, hunting, camping, gardening, wall and mountain climbing, island hopping, carnivals etc. I've always wanted to do canoeing and surfing but I still need to save and find the best place where I could do these, but as what my friends shared, the activities said were also good avocations. 

It's more fun outside. You can do everything you want that can make you enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: Actually, although the the main goal of recreation is leisure, not all recreational activities can be considered healthy and socially justifiable. These interests commonly include  gambling, drinking, smoking etc. Yes, they may be sources of entertainment but definitely are life-shortening, absolutely not  beneficial. As an advice, as much as possible, never be into it because as what my father, as well as my other relatives, said when I told him to stop having these bad habits,"It's hard to escape from your vices, it's very hard to stop. So daughter, please do understand.". I (and you too should) prefer not to be into these stuff and not test my curiosity to have a wholesome life.

Some forms of recreation may be dangerous to the health, take note!

Now that you've already learned about the basics of recreation, it's time to dig deeper and particular! Watch out for my new blog entry which shows examples of recreation that I do in details according to it's classification. I'll show you how it goes so that together, we can apply!
