Fat Talk

I just bought this dress! I love it :) Okay lah fine it looks normal.
Actually I bought a green one like over a week ago. Haha! It's pretty! And the best thing is the price. 10 pounds! Who cares if it came from a supermarket company! Even back at home it's hard to find a decent dress at that price. Doesn't matter I have two colours of the same design. I do that sometimes. It's not always that you chance upon clothes you really like, including the price. I love spring! Bring on the dresses and skirts!!

I look fat. I AM fat. Women are always conscious about how they look. Being/ looking fat is a no-no. I hate clothes that make my butt look big. Or show my tummy. Or anything else unflattering. I tend to compare myself to others, if I look bigger than them. And if I don't, or someone tells me I don't, I feel happy. I don't think it's a disease. Haha! But it's sick. When I've put on weight, I'll rationalise and think that others around me have put on weight too. Or that it's natural because of the age and low metabolism rate or being in a happy relationship. Ah. The downside of being in a happy relationship. Dating = dining. And most of the time it includes dessert. Go out, eat. Nothing to do, eat. Finished lunch or dinner, eat dessert. Late night dates? Supper. It gets worse if you both enjoy seeing each other eat, or feeding each other. Haha!

Okay I shall finish my paper, and then watch The Mentalist!

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho...

Stir Fried Udon

My baby loves this! Recipe adapted from here . 1 onion, sliced 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 packets udon noodles 1 carrot, julienned  250g mushrooms 2 chicken fillet, sliced 2 stalks spring onions 3 tbsp dark soy sauce 2 tbsp oyster sauce 1 tbsp sushi vinegar (replacement for mirin) 2 tsp brown sugar 1 tsp artificial vinegar Recipe doesn't call for onion and garlic but those are pretty much base ingredients for stir fries so might as well. Made this for quick lunch for the kids since they were home alone. 

Chicken Rice (just the rice)

Need to jot this down! I have an earlier recipe for Hainanese Chicken Rice but this version is without proper chicken stock hence it's fuss free. Chicken Rice (just the rice) Skins from several boneless chicken thighs 2 tbsp sesame oil 1 lemongrass, bruised 1 onion, sliced 8 garlic cloves, pounded 2 inches ginger, pounded 2 cups rice, washed 3 cups water + 2 cubes chicken stock 1/2 tsp salt 5 knots of pandan leaves Fry the chicken skin until slightly crispy and the oils ooze out, together with the sesame oil. Add in the lemongrass and onions and fry until golden. Add in garlic and ginger. Add in rice and fry for a few minutes before adding the chicken stock water, salt and pandan leaves. Let it come to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes. I used 4 cups water instead and it was kinda soggy so I'm guessing 3 cups should be sufficient. Also, cooking the rice in a pot is way easier than having to transfer into a rice cooker. Chili for Chicken R...
