An apple a day.. to brighten your day..

Salam

Buah epal... ada 2 jeniskan.. yang merah dan yang hijau.. kebiasaannya ramai yang suka epal merah.. manis dan ranggup... yang hijau ramai yang kurang suka.. sebab masam..

Sebenarnya dulu ada seorang kawan baik yang bagi petua makan epal hijau kalau nak kurus hahaha.. 2 biji sehari pagi dan malam.. masa tuh tah pesal tak teruja pun nak cuba..

Al-kisahnya.. last few week.. aku ke KL.. singgah makan di medan makan pertama komplek.. so orderlah air epal hijau.. dia jenis kaunter yang kita order dan kena tunggu... so masa order tuh.. nampaklah adik tuh potong epal hijau.. dan terus masuk blender... pastu bayarlah RM2.50 untuk secawan epal hijau tuh... uihhh rasa mahal ler pulak sebab proses ye bukanlah susah mana pun..

Later.. aku terfikir nak beli epal hijau kat pasaraya.. dan balik cuba buat experimen jus buah epal sendiri.. beli 15 biji baru 7.99... potong sebiji.. buang biji tengah.. potong kecil2 sikit.. masuk blender.. tambah secawan lebih air.. kalau nak manis boleh tambah gula.. biasa letak 1 sudu gula... letak 5 6 ketul ais.. then apa lagik.. tekan suis blend.... wahhh senang bangat jek... boleh dapat segelas besar.. dengan kos yang sangat minima.. rasanya modal untuk buat jus tuh dalam RM1.50 lebih kurang.. (1biji epal dalam .60, tambah kos elektrik.. air, gula, tenaga,blender).. yang best dah memang sejuk tak perlu tambah ais lagik.. dan boleh minum dengan gembira tanpa rasa bersalah...

Buat masa nie.. setiap hari pagi sebelum pergi kerja.. blend epal hijau masuk dalam bekas air.. bawa ke pejabat... sebelum mula kerja.. minum dulu air tuh sampai habis... then baru proceed buat kerja yang lain..

Petang pulak.. kalau rasa badan lesu dan perut mula keroncong sebab kena tunggu masa nak masak dulu.. blend epal hijau sebiji lagi... untuk recover badan.. akibat kepenatan drive balik.. cuaca yang panas.. rumah yang panas.. then boleh sambung masak dan buat kerja rumah balik...

Jika tak sempat buat masa petang.. sebelum tidur pun boleh blend lagi epal hijau tuh... dan minum sebelum tidur.. esok bangun.. amat senang buang air.. dan buang angin.. kalau nak detox dengan lebih baik... boleh blend epal hijau dengan celeri... (ini belum cuba lagi)

Semenjak amal makan epal hijau setiap hari nie.. rasa kurang sikit sakit leher dan bahu.. antara tanda-tanda stress dan tekanan... dan selalunya.. stok 15biji epal tuh boleh tahan utk stok seminggu kat rumah.. jimatkan.. dari nak order kat luar.. hari2 mahal jugakan...
