"I LOVE YOO" The name of the shop derived from the popular food sold here called Yoo-Tiao or You-tiao or Chinese Doughnut sticks. But this round, we did not order Yoo-Tiao because we had been eating a lot of YooTiao lately at the same shop. Haha. We ordered another snack called sesame ball with red bean paste for youngest son and myself as we were not so hungry. I of course had my coffee too. Jansen always brought along some activity book in case he would not be eating at…
The new month of September had us received news that our Grandmother passed on, on the 1st September. I prepared this photo to post on 1st to welcome September, but did not get to do it as my heart and emotions were processing her departure. On the 1st, after receiving the news, I just could not post this "New day, new hope". But then, it took me some hours of silence as I think of Grandma that it dawned upon me that for her it was new day, new hope, and indeed, it was new…
Deliberately told myself to go slow and rest from work after memorable times at my Grandmother's wake service and funeral, followed by a staycation with friends and their children since it is school holiday (which we had planned and booked in the month of August). It is also time to get back some needed sleep. Hope everyone is doing fine here. I took these photos at the Funeral parlour, at the wake service as well as at cremation place. Everyone was given a flower for us to…
Thank you @juditka80 for the invite link. It looks cool here and time to explore. Indeed, new month, and new Noise app too. Let's have a great time. It seems that if we are friends, only we can comment on each other's post. Thank you Noise team for the upgrade.
It was good to be able to visit my Aunt again. Last week I didn't go as my heart was settling down to accept the news of the passing away of my husband's Grandmother. My Aunt cooked for us today shrimp pork wanton soup, stir fry mixed vegetables and braised chicken with potatoes and carrots. We talked abit about life and death, and that she is ready to 'sleep forever' as she felt accomplished in life, at the same time, she also adored Queen Elizabeth who lived healthily till…
~~Brace Myself~~ I have a few things in my bucket list and some will never be accomplished now like going for bungee jump, paragliding and skydiving. I don't know, since I become a mother, I do not wish to join these activities that may have some risks of accidents, I just don't wish my children to have no mother as young age. 😂 Maybe I can just try hot air balloon but there is risk too. Haha. Maybe I think too much or I am just being too careful. But one of it in my bucket…
After my friend let me try her Tail and Fin's Ultimate Salad Bowl, I fell in love with it. My husband was not so keen to bring me go try pokebowl because being in food business himself, he knew the price of the sashimi, and all the ingredients, so he knew all the poke bowls sold out there are overpriced. He rather pays the same price to bring me for sashimi buffet. So I did not get to try pokebowl before. Now, I super love it until I ordered for myself via Grab app (food…
So thankful that despite the sudden complication Jansen faced the night before, he woke up feeling alright. He was so happy he got to go to church as well as eating lunch with family in the car while on the way to KLCC park for Pokémon community day, and then dinner at Suria KLCC food court. It was a Sunday super well spent. The man and boys were busy playing Pokémon while I enjoying the nature to the max! Beautiful KLCC park! =)
After finishing their Pokémon community day at KLCC park, we headed to Suria KLCC for early dinner. Husband and eldest son ordered their favourite Nathan's Famous, the frankfurters series. My husband chose the Jalapeño and my eldest son chose the cheese one. Also with sides such as fries and onion rings. Myself and my youngest son did not feel hungry due to late lunch, so we had hot coffee and hot chocolate respectively. Indeed, a great family day!
Have leftover ham which I don't want to keep longer so I cooked this. Fried thick rice vermicelli with ham, eggs and vegetables. The secret ingredients are no secret at all, just remember to use a lot of shallots and garlic for that natural aromatic flavour. Of course, Chinese cooking can't go without salt and pepper, soy sauce and oyster sauce. . And I love to add a lot of eggs whenever I fry noodles. That's about it. Good day to everyone.
Another Sunday to celebrate the start of the week. For some, Monday is the start of the week. For me, Sunday is the start of the week whereby we rest in the presence of God, refreshed before we start working the next day. Yesterday, my eldest son got so happy because I cooked for him luncheon meat with egg sandwich. It had been awhile because I was trying to cut down canned food. But, we still really love luncheon meat and this one is with slices of ham inside. A yummy…
Recently, I frequented this shop quite often. It is a new shop and I hope to try all the food there, at the same time to give the owner some support. Doing food business is really not easy, a little support goes a long way. The first dish I tried was their sour pickled noodle soup. Anything sourish will attract me. Eventhough it wasn't a lot of pickled vegetables, but I love that they add rice wine into the noodle soup. I literally drank up the whole bowl. If you are a soup…
Time to service my car. I brought Jansen along as it was at 10am, our supposedly learning time. I brought books with me thinking we could do some reading. But, when I saw the customer's lounge was quite comfortable with an animation show on, plus Jansen was watching it and he seemed to like it, I skipped the reading session. They served cakes, instant noodle in cup, coffee and Milo - just help yourself. I got myself a cup of Nescafe. What a nice place to hang out while…
Continue from yesterday's food sharing on the shop I recently frequented. I forgot to mention the name of the shop, it is called Lai Lai Ong. On another when I went again, I ordered from another stall in the shop where they sold mostly wok-fried food. I ordered a 'char kuey teow' which was stir fry flat rice vermicelli in fired up wok, ingredients like chicken slices, a lot of eggs, spring onion and beansprouts. My husband ordered Thai fried rice which also came with super…
