This is why I'm now on a Diet

A great deal of the trip to Italy and Greece involved eating. To be clearer, by eating I mean, really really yummy, sometimes overpriced, cheese, sugar, carbo ladden foods. So now, I'm sticking to museli, yogurt, soups, fruits and veggies. I'm not kidding when I say my pants are getting dangerously tight.

Italy





























Pear and Gorgonzola Focaccia, bought from one of the many evil bakeries and pizzerias



Even the plain ones were delish







Sweet treats! I love the citron tart, its like Kueh tart, just with lemon instead of pineapple...but somehow more luxurious





Nutella Crepe in the making





Every bite was a great big hunk of awesome. I. Kid. You. Not.





Gelato! I must have have tried at least 7 flavours =x






Without a doubt, the best Pizzeria in Cinque Terre







Farinata....chickpea and cornflour creation which I totally <3











4 Cheese Pizza. OH YEAH BABY!


Ricotta Quiche. No words can describe this rich, creamy godsend. No words.





No, I did not just buy shoes.

I bought a 4 cheese calzone from hell. Really, this monster was delicious but there was a mountain of cheese in the middle and it was impossible to finish...I ended up leaving behind enough cheese to make another 4 cheese pizza with. Never. Again.


Venetian sweets. I loved them so much I bought a Venetian Dessert cookbook =p

Greece



Feta Cheese Pie, I would do close to anything to get one now




White eggplants in olive oil, no one else liked it so I had the whole plate!






Grilled slab of Goat's cheese. MMMMMMMMMMMM



Tomato balls, called Keftedes. Oh so good.




Sesame seed encrusted bread ring bought from an uncle by a street corner. Best breakfast on the trip, considering that it was only 0.50 Euro.



The nice uncle even posed for a photo =)



Stockholm




My all time fave in Sweden, Falafel!



So now if mummy tells you something like, "Shila girl has become fat" or "Shila girl looks like a plum"...you know who the culprits are =p
