"A Banana A Day Keeps the Doctor Away!" Bananas in pyjamas, I'm coming down the stairs. Bananas in pyjamas, I'm chasing teddy bears.. If you need a quick fix for energy, there's no better snack than a banana. Containing three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose - combined with fiber; a banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proved that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout.

But best of all, I love this japanese snack - TOKYO BANANA ! It's this piece of soft cake that has real banana fillings in it and the sad part, you can only find it in Japan (most of the japanese stores here don't carry them as they have super short expiry dates.)
Back to my banana story, Lawrence & I made a recent trip during CNY to Japan Hokkaido. At our last day where we were at Narita Airport, waiting for our last flight back to Singapore, we caught sight of our favourite bananas and bought 10 boxes back ! (Imagine the customs officers were in front of us, going through our hand held luggages, looking though their computer screens where one spotted our bananas! I guess they couldn't hold back their giggles while asking, " Are these all bananas?" Tee Hee... Anyway, digress a bit. Our Hokkaido trip is not just about bananas, we had fun too, though the weather's really bad.. -20 degrees? Couldn't really help...our tour is called "Winter in Hokkaido"
I'm on the top of the world ..no..just Hokkaido Drink Van Houten Milk Cocoa..gives you all the energy you need. Try it, you'll feel as if you are on top of the world ! (Tee hee..really looks like a drink ad, huh...of course..pro photographer in action!) |
