Taiwanese Pancake

I’ve recently gotten hooked with making Taiwanese pancakes again while I am on the path to become healthier, I chanced upon this high protein pancake base made by the Uma German bakery. They have many seeds mixed in like flaxseed, sunflower seeds, nuts and basically, it’s compacted nuts in a thin sheet. 

It definitely doesn’t taste the same as the usual Chinese pancakes made out of flour and lots of lard but to be able to enjoy this dish while staying relatively healthy, I ain’t complaining. 

Something I noticed when I am making this dish is that my way of cooking is a bit rushed. I rush through the process because I want to get to the end product fast. I also eat the end product fast. The enjoyment is short lived. I don’t know why I have this tendency to rush through the eating process. Cooking process. 

What am I rushing in this life for? 

Once I am done with this task, I have this next task and never ending. Thinking about this thought is giving me anxiety. 

But why am I doing this? What’s the rush? To the grave? To some results? What results? 

Why live? What’s the point of all this if I can’t even be in the moment. Why do I need to be in the moment? What do I get out of it? Why do I need to get anything out of anything? 

As I spend more time alone, these questions get louder without any real answers to back them up. So they stay floating, eating me up. Until some days when my defense system is lower, they attack while all I can do is be depressed. 

So sad. So real. 

Well, now I have to go do the dishes. Let’s say some affirmations: I am proud of you to finish eating by 6PM so you have the night to digest. You can take a shower earlier, sleep earlier, so your body will thank you tomorrow. 

It’s true. Good rest (especially enough hours of high quality sleep), good food, a healthy mind makes for a better body. Better body is the foundation to a high performing person and that is the leading cause of success.
