I'm back at Metro ER

Around 1am today, i was rushed at the Emergency Room of Metropolitan Medical Center because of severe abdominal pain. I really cannot bear the pain last night. I took Rabeprazole (Pariet), a proton pump inhibitor and Buscopan but the pain did not subside. I decided to go to the hospital at around 1am. accompanied by my grandma, we seek consult at MMC. The nurse inserted heplock at my left hand and injected me Famotidine. After an hour, the pain subsided. My blood was also checked for possible infection. WBC was increased not because of infection but because of episodes of vomiting last night. The doctor prescribed me to take Prevacid once a day for 2 weeks. I was discharged at around 4 am.

super gay cake: Rainbow cake!


if you want to learn how to bake a rainbow cake, recipe available at Omnomicon.

World's most expensive dessert: $1000!


The $1,000 "Grand Opulence" sundae sold by New York's Serendipity restaurant is made with "5 scoops of the richest Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla and covered in 23K edible gold leaf, the sundae is drizzled with the world's most expensive chocolate, Amedei Porceleana, and covered with chunks of rare Chuao chocolate, which is from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela's coast. The masterpiece is suffused with exotic candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets, truffles and Marzipan Cherries. It is topped with a tiny glass bowl of Grand Passion Caviar, an exclusive dessert caviar, made of salt-free American Golden caviar, known for its sparkling golden color. It's sweetened and infused with fresh passion fruit, orange and Armagnac. The sundae is served in a baccarat Harcourt crystal goblet with an 18K gold spoon to partake in the indulgence served with a petite mother of pearl spoon and topped with a gilded sugar flower by Ron Ben-Israel."

The Golden Opulence Sundae, the "World's most expensive sundae", was created to celebrate Serendipity's 50th Anniversay last year. (If you are paying attention, the 50th anniversary is the "golden" anniversary. Get it?)

$1000? for a sundae? that's almost 4800 pesos! wow.
Is that amount worth the sundae or that sundae worth the amount?
