Sweets Calms My Mind and Body Blog #49 October 27, 2021 Hello, everyone! It's Wednesday already. Every one of us has our way of calming ourselves. Some find that calmness with nature, others have it through watching some funny videos or browsing the internet, others by spending time with their loved ones and others have it by eating their favorite foods. As for me aside from spending with my family, eating some sweet foods or drinking my favorite drinks calms my mind and body.
Sometimes I wake up on the wrong side of the bed, I don't feel like moving. I just wanted to sleep again and dream. Sometimes I am having sleepless nights especially when one of my family members is sick and I need to be very attentive to their needs so when I have to get up in the morning, I felt dizzy and nauseous. If that is the case, I easily get irritated. I am not in the mood to smile and even don't want to talk. So what I did is treat myself with a **cup of coffee** and it paired with these **cupcakes**. After consuming all those, I am now lively and I can do my morning routines. Cupcakes is my favorite food when I was a kid and up to now. Coffee is my energizer.
Having hot weather can sometimes ruin our mood. It makes us feel uneasy and irritated too. Even if I take a bath to ease that uneasiness that I feel, still after how many minutes it comes back again. I sometimes stayed near the fan but that hotness that I feel isn't gone yet. Consuming some cold sweets is best for the hot weather. **Halo-halo** is having crushed ice on it and while putting it in my mouth, the uneasiness and irritation that I feel are gone. I feel calm and happy. **Ice cream**? I like to eat it on sunny days. Now I have my new favorite brand and that is the **Aice Ice cream.** It has two flavors, **strawberry**, and **avocado**. **Strawberry flavor** has **strawberry syrup** on top of it while the **avocado flavor** has **chocolate syrup** on top. Another is the **SELECTA Ice cream**. Its flavor is like the **black forest chocolate cake** in red ribbon and for me, it's super yummy.
Cakes? There are different types of **cakes** that I like. There is the **chocolate cake, the chiffon cake, the mocha flavored cake, the pandan flavored cake,** and many more. As much as I wanted to taste all of those today but I haven't had a budget so I just scroll down my gallery, and this is what I saw. The first cake was bought last February during the birthday of our youngest boy. He requested it so we tried to find a cake that we can afford and we saw that it cost 100 pesos. So we bought one and enjoy small slices of it. Then the second one was during May. I was sick that time and my mouth was craving for something sweet. So I browse my Facebook and see some listings in our place where we can buy a cake and glad that there was, though I wanted another flavor but there's no other so I just go with the chocolate cake. I bought two tubs of it which cost 230 pesos. And that's it, I was satisfied with its taste. I still have many sweet foods that I like, like donuts, chocolates, etc but I don't want to write them one by one coz I may not finish this so I just share those sweets that I have captured before. Coffee, Cupcakes, Cold Treats and Cakes - Those are my Sweet C's foods that can Calm myself. That's it!!! Thanks for reading again. This is my entry on Writing Prompt #20: Food by @JonicaBradley.

For children, sweets energize and make them run havoc! My children get sugar high if they eat too many sweets. I'm surprised that they actually calm you down! And your list has made me hungry and craving for sweets in the middle of my morning

Happy Wednesday, coffee and chocolate cake is heavenly to me 😉
You should be careful with the way you take those sweets, it's too much sugar 😉 I love chocolate candy a lot but I have to restrict myself sometimes so I wouldn't get addicted 😆
I want all of the above haha you and I have much in common, I also use sweets to calm myself. There's nothing more satisfying than a good piece of chocolate cake after a hard day's work.
