Forgotten Sports & Stuff

I went cycling last Saturday! Changi Beach to ECP. Fun :) The last time I cycled was probably 10 years ago, ignoring the one where I rode a twin bicycle hehe. That one I shall not count cos I didn't have to do the balancing, steering and even the heavy cycling HEHE. Can you believe it! I sort of forgot how to cycle! My balancing in the beginning was terrible, my cornering even worse. Tsk. But but. We is faci, so we should be the ones that take care of the kids, not the kids take care of us. So somehow, I had to quickly get used to the bicycle hahaha.

Cycling is not the only sport I forgot. Golf is another. Goodness. My swing is terrible. I was very happy the golf ball shot up can! My first few swings, hancur! I was hitting the air. Sigh.

I wonder if I forgot how to swim... Hmm.

The CSI Las Vegas team should do an investigation on Wisteria Lane.

Less than two months to go! Wheee~ :)

I went Anchorpoint, and to my disappointment, I went back empty handed. EMPTY. Not even a pair of shoes. What is wrong with me! Haha. Good thing the carpark ERP system was faulty, my parking fee's free!

But I still feel like shopping.

Jialat. I think shopping has become an addiction. I think I can't go without buying anything for a month. There's surely something to spend on, even if it's a $12 pair of shoes.

Bree Hodge and husband. The wife's very successful, and the husband's faded into the background. And the husband, because of his bruised and battered ego, wanted his wife to sell away the business to save their marriage. Question. Why can't a wife be more successful than the husband? Is it wrong?

You know those questions, what's your motto, or what do you believe in, dumb questions like those, I never had answers to. But recently, I found my answer. Independence. Being able to stand on your own two feet. We should all strive for that.

Birthday's coming! But I don't know what I want from all you people who's willing to buy me stuff. Haha! I am also supposed to start thinking of presents I want in the month after that too. Hehe. I shall start that list!

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...
