A happy news for this coming July

It was a surprised when I saw the message from her. It was a good news and I never expect it will be me. It wasn't realistic till I finally saw the email from my AD. I received many many congratulations greetings from colleagues the next coming day. Finally it helps to release the family burden a bit.

Korean Pork Rib soup

Thanks to PIL for bringing the chicken and pork ribs. I can now bring forward a day to make the Korean pork ribs soup. I am going to follow this recipe.

Didnt know how seriously i have hurt myself

Image
I didn't know I nearly kill myself with all these emotions for the past one and half year. These emotions have actually resulted in my serious fall..... I am grateful that just two sessions with 老师, my many years of grievance has lessen so much. I am not totally heal but I feel so much better.

Well done Janelle

Image
Half year had passed and Janelle had got a hand to manage the increased subjects, projects and homeworks coming along. Slowly finding her way and learning to cope with all the stress and loads. We were.happy with her results. Although she didn't really tell us much but I know she always set certain expectation of herself. Higher Chinese is tough for her. English is not as easy as before. New subjects like Literature make her wild sometime. However she enjoys Science, did well on Geography and couldn't understand the need for History. She set her goal, she knows which industry she wanna be. She wanted to build a strong foundation now for her future goal.

Failed cakes

Image
I wanted to do something at home. Today i am doing baking and some tidying up of the kids toys. I was using my aunt premix cake flour but it never works well if I wanna add flavour into it. I have no idea why. My 1st cake is Earl grey cake and it collapse when I add the cake mix with the Earl grey powder. Then I have another idea to mix the orange into another mix and it doesn't raise well but the flavour is so good. 

School starts

Image
School starts and I get my peace back and although Janelle complains the break is short, I believe she enjoys school.mpre than staying with me. I am glad she is back to school because I cannot stand her couching around at home. I wake up at 7am but after washing up and making myself breakfast, I only manage to relax and have my breakfast at 8am. However the sky is dark, what a gloomy day to start school.  What's my plan for today? My lunch. Salad mixture of avocado, squash, Cheryl tomatoes, lettuces, cucumber, tempeh. 

Hangover

Image
A night outing with his old secondary school classmates, more like a bachelor night for the groom. He came home around 2am, I was expecting even later. He told me he was almost drunk but still able to talk sense and walked himself up home. He was really tipsy by then, took his bath and back to bed. For the whole night, he didn't even stir or woke up by me turning n tossing. He was really into deep sleep, which was for a very long time he did not manage to enjoy. He told me he didn't drink much but the after effects was bad on him. Woke up around 9am, running to hug the toilet bowl. He was back to bed feeling head spinning and continued to sleep till 1pm. I managed to cook lunch for them, get him up to have lunch and he continued with a nap.  They finished 2 bottles of Yamazaki whisky last night. Only one drove so he didn't drink any, the other one was totally knocked off and 2 of them have to carry him up his 3 storey semi-di. 6 big men, 5 drinking. I'm really g...

Happy Father day celebration

Image
Work is stressful for Law, so we have a good dinner and a good movie with the kids to relax. Bringing me out is not easy, I wanted to go somewhere spacious and not crowded and we head for Suntec. I have craving for Marche so we end up there to munch. Julian is very innocent, he can't rbr when is the last time he came. We got his a kid meal set and he admitted he got the wrong choice to order the pizza although we found it nice. He preferred the crepe that Janelle ordered but we shares our food so not that bad. Law ordered the special pork loin set which came in huge portion. 2 thicked slices of pork loin with mashed potatoes and vegetables. This was good and very worth it for pple who loves meat and pork. I will still prefer my crepes. Our happy Monday ends with Wonder Woman movie. Saturday morning we drove in to JB again. Law wanted his oysters from Warakuya restaurant and also a big boat of sashimi.  I love their tempura which is not oily and even Janelle who doe...

We caught you

When we snacked, he snacked too.  When jie jie drank, he drank too. We all hope he will be drunk. Hahahaha 

没有tingkat 的日子

Image
My last tingkat delivery was on Tuesday and I decided to stop ordering.  Today I go dig out the ingredients that was frozen in my fridge. I still have half a salmon fish head.  Simple lunch for Jan and me so wasn't that bad.  For dinner I dig out a pack for frozen pork tenderloin, dig out my mushroom, black fungus for sour and spicy soup. Law came back and added 4 sunshine eggs to the dinner menu. I believe it was his 1st time cooking sunshine eggs and he really did a good job. Infact, he did it better than me.  So I guess we may able to survive without tingkat and cooking simple dishes for our own daily meal.  Only problem is I can't stand for very long. 

Off my stitches

It's time to remove my stitches. My GP was very careful with it and luckily it wasn't painful.

Tingkat with Kim's Kitchen

Image
Day 1 We we're excited about the tingkat we were going to have. This was our 1st time ordering tingkat. As I can cook well, I never thought I will need to make such arrangement.  I didn't like cabbage, the pork is ok, the breaded fish is a disappointment even Janelle would not buy such processed food in school. The soup tasted like pig stomach soup which is not and we taste much more pepper. Day 2 Day 3

Thank you friends
