Crazy About Cincau

Of late, I have been crazy about cincau.  Hopefully I don't end up a diabetic , walloping 2- 3 glasses full of cincau everyday.

At the same time, I made guilinggao, cut into strips just like how I cut the sweetened cincau and dump them into my rock honey syrup. By the way, I don't like this brand of guilinggao. it is hard to disolve unlike the other brand I tried earlier.



Here's my refreshing guilinggao + cincau drink. Purposely put it next to my plant to show the height of my plant, so that I will know how much it has grown the next time.


Anyone else like cincau like me? It's addictive.

My maiden bonsai

I never really planted anything although I like looking at plants and flowers especially succulents.
That's because I am so scared or earthworms or anything that look like worms...eee...so geli. I remembered when I was doing my Bio practical exams in Form 6, I asked the invigilator to put the earthworms into the testube because there is no way I was going to do it!!! And bless the invigilator, he actually did it for me!

So you can see, I have no knowledge about taking care of plants except watering them. My mum however has green fingers. When I go back to my hometown, we usually get to eat the vegetables from her garden.

One day, I was doing my grocery in AEON Big and I saw this bonsai and my itchy hands decided to get it.
After one month, my plant grew. I was so happy.


 Hopefully the plant doesn't grow any bigger. I don't want to transfer to bigger pot..I might just killed it. Not sure if I need to do anything else e.g add fertiliser? Plant experts? I only know how to water!!!

Last weekend we went to watch "Kid From The Red Apple" at Tropicana City because we heard so much good reviews about it.  When we heard good reviews about Ola Bola, we went for it too. I have to say while Ola Bola exceeded our expectations, this one is just 'normal' to us. Yes, it teaches good values but we do get lots of those from Singapore drama series. Anyway, credit must be given to the little girl, Sarah. She embraced her role very well.

After the movie I chanced upon a small stall selling cute little plants. So my little boy decided to get me one for my early birthday. I think this is the first time he gave me something out of his own pocket and while I pity him forking out his hard earned cash, decided to choose a small plant although he asked me to get a bigger one.

Top View. Apparently this plant absorbs 'radiation'. I don't know its name. It cost RM33. It looks big here but it is actually quite small. Hopefully it survives for sometime.

When I Don't Know What To Cook

When I don't know what to cook , I'll do a one pot dish. In this case it is bee hoon soup.

Dump everything with chicken stock ( boil bones with ikan bilis). Each time when I cook this, the things that goes  inside will defer slightly. It all depends on what I can find from my fridge ( as always no planning). Mushroom, sawi, cabbage, tomato, chicken, chai boh and sour vegetable.


And must always be accompanied with this dipping. Red Chilli seeded, chopped garlic, lime and soya sauce. Most important, nobody complaints.



 

OK , one dinner kao tim!

Friday's Drama

I haven't even gotten over on Tuesday's Drama, and he gave me another one last Friday.

Went to school with this bag.


Came back with this one.

Pengsan!!!!

Anyway, it wasn't so scary this time because since the bag was exchanged in school, he know it will be found. Apparently his friend took his first ( another blur sotong) , and he just grab this one because his transport was waiting for him. But he only realised that it was the wrong bag when he reached home. I wonder what he was doing during the entire journey.

He got back his bag the next day ( Saturday) because they had parents-teachers meeting. Phew!
