Sardin Puff on Freaky Friday..

Yahoo.. after a tiring, mind-testing, super extra exhausting week...I finally manage to survive till today..Friday night. Fuuh...I came back straight from work ...dozed for few hours. Before I realised it, the ntv7 newscaster finished her last sentences, to give way to another boring and idiotic "celebrity karaoke". Yap was sitting beside me, looking extremely in starvation. Haha. Who on earth will cook on Friday nite? (besides those mothers out there, i salute u)

Yap suggest an extrordinary idea...simple, 'good looking', fast and furious meal that can be prepared even quicker than the time I used to finish off this paragraph. A special edition of unhealthy ah-fa dinner
The ingredients?Open your fridge and get whatever leftovers that can be found. But the most important is puff pastry. Stuff it with sardin,(or tuna, or sambal ikan bilis or whatever leftover...) fold it into half, press the side with folk then baked at 190c for 15 minutes.
Eventhough looked small but the portion are indeed really filling de neh. A satisfied dinner again :p. (Do note that the eggs are the leftover after the yolk was used to make brownies yesterday, and the cucumber + lettuces were bought 2 weeks ago)

The hotdogs are optional. Just in case...there are big eater in your house..(like I do)
Sometimes life should have a little bit different ...With a little bit of this... a little bit of that..you can create your own fast food....(and you pay Rm 12++ for this set in any given western restaurant)

Happy Mother's Day

A cake for mum- wish u a happy mother's day
I feel very bad when i unmould the sponge cake, the height of cake is out of my expectation (it is as short as me). While I was very sad looking at my bake, I burned the almond flakes (as dark as charcoal). The mother's day cake turned out to be very colorful (as like it is for small kids) because the colored chocolate rice is the only thing i could use to substitute the charcoal.Yap gave the idea to use orange, papaya and banana in decorating the cake. I laugh out on his stupid suggestion. I don't think I can get a presentable cake with these fruits. However, I decided at the last minute to use the orange because I ran out of idea (don't want to open a can of peach fruit just for 3 slices), and I think it works well isn't it? I have to admit creativity always start from a stupid idea :p
I use separate egg method for this sponge cake. The original recipe call for 3 eggs but i increased it to 4. The resulting cake was still too short for a 8 inch pan, so i think next time i'll use 6 eggs.

Meal in Boxes

Today Yap work night shift and I work half day. With less than an hour and all my heart, i prepared this dinner for him. White rice with fried egg, sambal prawn and cabbage with chinese sausage. A dinner meal set would not be complete without a drink. The limited resources figure my way out to made the honey lime juice as the drink of the day.

I think next time I should buy a proper lunch box to give my food a better presentation. But i doubt if there is any lunch box that can fit the amount of food that Yap consume in a meal, haha.

Sausage Bun

Today is Pahang's public holiday but i still have to wake up early to run the Methadone Clinic. Luckily it's only open for a few hours. I was so hungry while serving the drug addicts and couldn't pay full attention. The first thing while i reach home was rush into my kitchen to prepare this simple but satisfying breakfast. Hmm.. yummy yummy...

At first i wanted to prepare 3 buns, one for me and 2 for Yap, but he said he wanted 3 buns. Haha, don't be surprise, he is really a big eater.

Home Alone


This is a long weekend and I choose to be home alone. I wake up very late, having all sorts of unhealthy food (maggi, Mc Donald drive-thru) to fill the stomach. My daily activities include reading newspaper, surfing net, watching tv. When i tired, I take a nap (it is actually not a nap but a daytime sleep due to the long duration, haha), wherever i want because the whole house is mine now, wahahaha.


Quite a long time i didn't have the moment like this, shut my mouth for the whole day (except answer to call) without having to worry if i offend anyone, do all sorts of activities without having to use my brain, eat whatever i like without having to consider other's preferance, mess up the house and clean it only if i have the mood to do so, lie on the sofa and pose any 'unelegant' posture without having anyone to eye on me... and i find out, sometimes it is really quite enjoying to be alone :)

終 於

終 於 可 以 松 一 口 氣 。 勞 動 節 萬 歲 。
