So happy to receive a box of pineapple tart from my colleague. Thanks him a million for the gesture.

Self grooming

Image
I thought I will never have much time to groom myself this year. Crazy workload and stress but luckily my lucky sister gave me a slot and asked me to go for the lashes. The lady did single, 2D and 3D lashes for me. I love it so much. Law knew I wanted to get my nails done so he accoy me to look for the nail parlour at Johor Jaya, gave me 1hr to do up my nails. I did a simple nail art on my toes.... so cute.

No time to cook. This is a quick fix. Not bad because even Julian like this.

One more round of lapis

Image
It is crazy but satisfying to see the final product. This time round, i am making the lapis layer a bit thicker. I gave one piece to a colleague and he text me and told me the family love my kueh lapis very much. Thank you. This is the 2nd time I got praises on my cakes.

New coat

Time to give our place a new coat. 1st Day I used Kaodim app to help me find the contractor to paint our place. We manage to find 2. One quoted 2k plus and the other quoted 1.7k after viewing our place. We decided to give to the lower quote. Law said they are fast hand n legs. We have so many stuffs to shift to make way for the workers to paint the wall. Seriously my walls are in bad condition now. They did a great job and within 1 day they completed all our rooms and living room. They left my dining room and main gate for tmr. Now we are busy cleaning up the place and throwing more stuffs away for Cny. I'm so happy sleeping in my new painted room.

Lets give this a try and give my face a chance

Acting cool and cute

Little boy asking for a cap, a sunglasses and a watch when I was doing my online shopping. I asked him to chose and he chose this Spider Man cap. The owner was so nice to send me a kid sunglasses as a gift. But I find the cap is not beautifully constructed. He asked me to take photo of him in his new cap. Happy little boy.

Fishy Affair

Image
I got some fish from the FB live. It was so crazy over FB live now. Everyone is selling everything and anything online and live! Isnt that cool? OK I got my seafood from this Lian Huat Seafood Pte Ltd and they are doing live at the Jurong fishery port at night around 10pm onward and till midnight. That is the when the fish port is busiest. My order came with a new box.  Can guess what I ordered?  Live prawn.  Red tilapia really blow me off.  Silver Pomfret which is very flesh. 

油腻腻的关系

我和你那油腻腻的关系 I just need to enjoy something sinful to get rid of my stress at work. I think my management really hate my team of colleagues to give us so unbalance workload comparing to the other teams.

My 1st attempt of Kueh Lapis

Image
After the last baking lesson, I told myself I must try this cake this week. Thanks Janelle for helping me to separate the egg yolks and white while I make Skyler nap. My mixer is so busy today because I make her cream the butter, then the egg yolk and the egg white all separately. My creamy butter. So lovely right. After mixing all together the final batter is ready to be baked. Layer after layer. Many people told me it was so time consuming to make Kueh Lapis but the satisfaction level if over the top. Very nice layer but I am not satisfied because each layer is too thin and my Lapis is a bit dried but the sweetness is just nice. (because I reduce the sugar...) I am going to make this again... going to prefect it again. People are asking for recipe. Sorry not going to give because I paid for the recipe. Pay me and I give you that sheet of paper..

Foodie date

Need to run an urgent errand so we placed the kids with in law while we quickly go and complete our stuff. After everything settle it was nearly 3pm. I suggested to try this since 2 pax set is not too expansive. Doesnt look alot but we are very full after this. Guess what is in the soup? 1/4 kampong chicken and pig stomach. Yes it is pig stomach soup. It works like the steamboat, you can add on more ingredient if you too hungry. This was our dinner before we head home and after finished our shopping. One new makan street we found at Permas Jaya.

年紀越大朋友越難找

「年紀越大朋友越難找」,相信這是許多人共同的感觸,尤其到了25歲以後更加明顯,你會發現以前那些常常陪你吃喝玩樂、形影不離的朋友越來越少,身邊漸漸地只剩下幾個知心的老友,然而這並非是因為我們人際關係不好,而是因為我們都邁入人生下一個階段! 表情若有所思的,接著他向坐在對面的師父問道:「為什麼每過一段時間,就總有一些朋友不再聯繫?」 只見師父淡定地邊喝著茶邊回答:「成長,就是個不斷告別的過程」,當師父準備講下一句話時,小和尚卻著急地打斷了他的對話,表示:「可是明明我們以前那麼好,吃喝玩樂都在一起,甚至還會互相講心事」。 只見小和尚最後問師父:「那以後還能遇到一起玩樂、一起交心的人? 」師父帶著肯定的語氣道:「當然」! 許多網友熱烈討論:「人總是會學的成長~很自然」、「長大以後留在身邊的都是跟你處得來的好友」。 朋友無非就是兩個詞,陪伴和成長 天下無不散的筵席!當我們接觸的更多,相處的人也跟著越多,聊得來的人自然會聚集在身邊。

Rice bowls

Image
I am very lazy to cook full meal. There are pork belly slices and vegetable from last night steamboat from my brother place so I decided to cook something simple and delicious for the kids. Pork Belly Japanese rice bowl. Look appetizing? Onion, white and brown mushroom plus the soft egg topped with pork belly slices. Julian said he wanna have steak again to give steak for three of them will easier cost me $60 so I went to get a big slice of waygo beef to sous vide it. My sous vide beef, a soft boiled eggs, portobello mushroom and saute onion underneath the beef slices. I got many likes after I posted it up in my FB and cooking group. This make me wanna do  more sous vide dishes.
