Anniversary

If you noticed the header of this blog, you'll find that I've just added a ticker today which keeps track of my anniversary. As I was creating it just now, I only realised that tomorrow would be my anniversary day already!!!

Oh my, I've been really absent minded lately. Anyway, there will not be any form of celebration or presents "as usual", so it's actually "no big deal" also even if I forget about it.... Even hubby will most likely have forgotten about it, I think I can bet for that, sigh.... who ask me to have married a not so romantic guy so can't ask for more loh... :)

Turmeric chicken

Ingredients:
Chicken thigh, shallots & turmeric powder

1. Marinade chicken pieces with a pinch of salt, chopped shallots & turmeric powder (may add crushed tumeric as well) for an hour.
2. Heat wok with oil and shallow fry the chicken mixture until cooked.

Not only the chicken is yummy but the fried shallots too, it's my favourite. But be careful when preparing this dish as the turmeric powder & oil can stain our clothes and it's quite difficult to wash off.

Tonight's dinner

What's on my dinner table tonight?

There are Tumeric Chicken, Omelette with French Beans, Stir-fry Vegetable with garlic (siew pak choy) & White Radish soup. As for Dillon, he is having rice with soup, white radish & omelette, however, he doesn't seem to like today's soup very much. His favourite soup is definitely ABC soup because he loves potatoes & tomatoes.

Friday's humour

What is marriage all about?

Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends. You order what you want, then when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Man: Is there any way for long life?
Dr: Get married.
Man: Will it help?
Dr: No, but the thought of long life will never come.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's funny when people discuss Love Marriage vs Arranged. It's like asking someone, if suicide is better or being murdered.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A man who surrenders when he's wrong, is Honest. A man who surrenders when not Sure, is Wise. A man who surrenders even if he's Right, is a Husband.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something you say. After marriage, he'll fall asleep before you finish.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospective husband: Do you have a book called 'Man, The Master of Women'?
Salesgirl: The fiction department is on the other side, sir.

Man receives telegram: Wife dead-should be buried or cremated?
Man: Don't take any chances. Burn the body and bury the ash.


P/S: No offence to men & women, husbands & wives. Have a good weekend! :)

Why is this happening to me?

Well I have been an active member in MeadJohnson forum for many months and I've been posting & sharing ideas there very often.

Last week when I was browsing the site as usual, I realised that all my previous posts have gone missing & only those that I posted on that day remained, which is a total of 7 posts only! Oh my, where did the few hundred other posts gone to?

I reported this to the web admin immediately & they promised to rectify the problem asap but till today, I still didn't hear anything from them, sigh.... looks like it's "colder than water" la (very slim chance)

I would be really upset if they are not able to trace back & restored all my posts, well I'm not saying that my posts are very valuable to all, but to me that few hundred posts are like my baby. ;(

Peas for soup & porridge

I've mentioned about this pod peas in my previous recipe post on Chinese Soups and it was sad that I wasn't able to tell the exact name or describe how it looks.

Therefore the best way is to snap a picture & share it here so that everybody has a better idea of what kind of pod peas I was talking about.

This pod peas is great for making soup with chicken carcass, as well as cooking porridge for babies. It is sweet & will become very soft once cooked, taste yummy.

Give it a try!

Spiderman 3

We have heard & seen so many promos way before this blockbuster movie is in the cinema. It's really not exaggerating that the tickets were are sold out few days prior to the actual show time.

We manage to grab our tickets for a 5pm show today at Leisure Mall and this must also thank to one of our friends who actually sacrifice his sleep & went to buy the tickets on Sunday morning. It was clearly a full house show & the seats we had in the center row wasn't too bad; but I wonder how could the people sitting in the first 2 rows stretch their neck for 2.5 hours to "enjoy" the movie?

The movie itself is very entertaining & exciting I think, esp the 2 spidey's villains. I particularly like the special effects of Sandman; Venom was cool but its appearance was a bit too short.

So what's next in my movie-to-watch list? Of course none other than Captain Jack Sparrow. :)
