家

外面风雨再大

我们永远有个家回

:)

Selamat Hari Raya!

I missed lemang so much! I haven't had one for years...

Since it's Raya eve, Ying Ying bought all these Raya goodies on her way back from work, lemang and ketupat. The serunding that goes with lemang is so delicious, we can have it on its own.

I miss Pasar Ramadan, where we can find the Malay aunties bakar-ing the lemang, selling rendang and serunding. I can't find any Pasar Ramadan in Singapore, I don't even know where do all the Malays bought the lemang.

We continued our lemang craze this morning with lemang bakar. Mom pan fried the leftover lemang from last night on non stick pan. Yum! Delicious!!!

Anyway, Selamat Hari Raya! Have a pleasant holiday!

Miraku at G Hotel

在很惊险的两周之内，我终于买到了新加坡-槟城的来回机票。还在刚刚过的周四，我只有回家的机票，却没有机票飞回新加坡。费了很多心思，还有很多back up plan，守得云开见月明，终于让我盼到Silk Air的wait list confirmation。喜悦的心情无法形容！:)

回家前一天，工作忙，看张学友看得痴痴疯疯，甚至回家前的那一刻还在公司。回到槟城简直是累死人。不过，我的姐姐和弟弟，在我没有选择之下，已经买了Cars 2的戏票。

由于我早餐之后就没有任何事物下肚子，到Gurney时，我已经饿得要晕死了。我们要快要好吃，就选了G Hotel的Miraku，我们的最爱！






弟弟每一次来，都要“thong”一碟三文鱼刺身。鱼很新鲜，好吃得很！



Assorted sushi

烤牛肉，生熟度刚刚好，不太硬不太生。好吃！

实不相瞒，Miraku并不是便宜的地方。我们三个人这样随便叫，也要一百块。不过，如果我将价钱convert去新币，我未必能找到一家一样的素质和环境的日本餐。所以，还是值得的。

我九月还会再吃一次哦！因为答应了慧妮要请她，她选了这家。呵呵！

The Man's Eating

So the man came home, and eat minestrone for supper.

And stared at the TV.

Dinner for Two

It's been some time since I last had minestrone I cooked myself.

I wasn't hungry when I off work today because I had a curry puff from my boss. So, I decided to cook myself a dinner. My stomach could wait.

To enable Yee Hau to eat some after he off work (late), I cooked something soupy.

Home cooked is always nice.

P.S:
I am not used to the fact that I don't have an external flash (I had it when I use Olympus) and I realized how the close up +4 filter distorts the image at the corners of my photos... sigh...

败家⋯⋯败得很开心(^_−)−☆

为我的Olympus E510感到不足已经有好一段时间，但是挨着口袋不是很多钱，总是思前想后⋯⋯想了很久以下，终于狠下心，上周日败了一架Nikon D7000回家。

败家之前，我用了几个星期说服自己。总总理由，比如：可以和毓豪共用镜头、有更好的quality、下一趟旅行快到了。然后，我跟自己说，好了，只要问到一家最便宜的就可以买。就这样，败了！！！

还没有那年底花红，就先花钱。


同样的海龟，不同的相机。



很快他们就有新成员



Focus! 我缺少的。

每晚回来玩相机，呵呵。

My Latest Obsessions

Turtle is my latest obsessions. It happened after coming back from Sipadan.

I was searching up and down for the plush toy of Squirt from Finding Nemo. But, no luck. So while I'm still aza aza looking for it, Yee Hau brought this from home.

It's not a plush, but oh well, still cute! :)

Bacon, Mushroom & Zuccini Pasta

Ever since I've moved further away from work place, I don't cook as often as I used to.

But every now and then, I find some excuse to come back to cook something for myself. It's been a while since I cook pasta. This bacon, mushroom and zuccini pasta wasn't as good as I thought. The bacon I got from NTUC Fairprice were slightly too salty. Good thing I've finished them. Say no to that bacon!

Still, a cup of chamomile tea, good for relaxing my mind after a day of work =)

My Pirated Version Bruschetta

People say you pick up habits of your other half eventually.

For my case, it can be true, sometimes.

Yee Hau has some craze for baked/grilled tomatoes ever since we had big brekky at Bratwurst Cafe in Plaza Singapura. I didn't fancy it at first, but as I started to bake it for him, I started to like this too.

With the much anticipated excitement ahead (Eason's concert in Kuala Lumpur) this weekend, I have to start clearing some food in fridge. I decided to make a sandwich/pirated bruschetta with whatever I have.

I seasoned the tomato with pepper, baked them alongside with bacon, to let the oil and fragrant from the bacon to flow to the tomatoes. And then, I pan fried button mushroom with butter. At the last 3 minutes, I threw the bread into the oven.

Tadaa!~ And I seasoned with some herbs and cheese before served.

To my surprise, the tomato ones are better than the mushroom one =)

Go with a cup of chamomile tea, yummy! I'm happy that I'm back to kitchen again.
