Do you know i have 4 sisters and 1 brother?
When all of us gather together, but usually minus my brother, there will be 5 of us, all girls. I love it!
2 weeks ago, all of them came down to S'pore for a short visit. Mainly to see my newborn. (but now can be considered as old baby liao :P)
Even my second sister from Taiwan also came down to visit. It so happened that she came back on that week itself for her gf's wedding you see..
Me ain't telling who's the oldest or the youngest here. Why don't you take a guess?? Grin. But do ignore my mom who couldn't resist joining us even though we did say it was for the sisters only and of course, ignore the baby boy and my nephew too! Heh.
I love family gatherings like this. Really!
I love being near to my sisters and love going out with them too. Seriously, nothing replaces this. We can joke, fight, banter, hit, kick, punch, tease without any restriction and at the end of they day, all will still be good. The bond between us.. simply cannot be explained. They say, blood will always be thicker than water. How very true.. :)
I love my sisters.. i love my family!
So dear readers, having 1 child is really not enough at all. You may think it's enough for you but it's really not so true for your child no matter what or how you think. Siblings' love is nothing like mother's love. It's an entirely different kinda love. So no matter how you make it up to love your only child, it's really not the same.
Best is to have 2 of each gender or 1 shot, all same gender! You can never imagine how fun it is! *wink* (er, poor brother of mine. He's the only male and always gets left out! Hahaha)
However, this is my take of course. To each his/her own yeah? :)
I'm back! :D
Home sweet home~
I love eating good nasi lemak.
Being brought up in Malaysia, i'd taken nasi lemak for granted. All along i thought nasi lemak was supposed to be like that but i realised i was wrong after i came to Singapore (ooppsss.. hope i'm not offending anyone by saying this).
Most of the nasi lemak served in hawkers and food court here are not very nice. [aiyoh, i think Singaporeans will start hating me now! Die]
But of course, there are exceptional ones which are extremely good..
For example, the ones that i frequent are Changi Village's, Adam Rd food court's, Tanjong Pagar's and sometimes, Bukit Batok's..
Nevertheless, if possible, i like making my own ;)
With chicken curry or beef rendang.
Sedap!
My super healthy, eat all i want yet guilt free chicken curry :P
Why healthy?
I use skinless and fatless chicken + fresh milk instead of coconut milk, which explains why you can hardly see the 'pleasing to eyes' red colour layer of oil on top.
Again, newspaper as table mat! Paiseh ah! *hide*
Super easy dinner i must say because the chili and ikan bilis are store bought. All i gotta do is cook the rice and curry. Of course, the eggs as well :)
Oh, if you love eating chili with rice, you must try this Singlong sambal chili, as seen in the picture above. It's really really good. Extremely spicy too!!
Now i eat more rice because of that! Eesshh.. Lol.
Anyone keen on this?
It's foc half day hike at Pulau Ubin by Boac-online.
Email me yeah!
Me don't wanna go alone :(
This dish came about when i was craving for pork chop rice, HK cha chan teng's style which i had a couple of days before.
But my version is slightly different, just the rice though.
Instead of the yellow rice served, which looks like nasi kunyit to me, i fried mine with eggs and a pinch of salt and pepper.
The rest was done in the exact style --> deep fried pork chop with bread crumbs, coat it in sweet and sour sauce before baking it in the oven together with a handful of mozzarella cheese on top.
I like!
Apples overstock.
Thankfully, this apple crumble managed to use up 5. Heh.
I wasn't that confident to bake this at first. Afterall, it was my first pie/tart bake, made from scratch. But it was good. Really!
However, next time, i'll probably add a little sugar to the crust, which was sugar-less. And perhaps, for the apples, i'll not boil it at all.. for more flavour. And and, i will not save my lemons too. A tablespoon of its goodness it is. At most, i'll drink up the rest of the juice just like that. Hehehehe :P
Doesn't sound so perfect afterall yeah?
But it was!
Do i sound convincing enough?
Ha!
p.s: do pardon me, heh. On 'love' high. My whole family [sisters, parents, do, re, mi etc] is here, well.. almost!
