Busy kitchen

 Date: 13/07/2021 (Tues)


There were still some spicy moo ping almost forgotten in the freezer.  I removed the skewers, cut meat into smaller pieces to fry rice.  The rice became slightly spicy then, my son like.

Cooked dinner.

After the previous charcoal wings, I air fried.  Nice sia, Luis requested me to buy more.

The weather was rainy and nice, cooked porridge to go with some dishes.  Managed to clear many old items from the fridge.

Finished off the last piece of baguette, time to order more breads and puffs.

Stuffed in curry pork balls and cheese for Luis.

I added in sprouts for myself.

Went to the market.  I like to buy veg from this stall cos I can pick up the quantity I need.  Unlike supermarkets, items were pre-packed and many times I was "forced" to buy more than I need.
I bought 3pcs potatoes, japanese spring onion and a corn.

So pretty.

Also bought fresh coconut juice with pulp.

Made coconut chicken soup.

Luis was fast at his fav dish.

Asari clams in thai chilli sauce.

Fresh tofu and spring onions in oyster sauce.
Dinner was so good with Ber around.

Our border must be the widest in the whole world.  Anybody, everybody are welcome to Singapore as long as you are willing to get through 14 days quarantine.  Just tell ICA you got friend here can liao, then you can extend your stay extensively, heehee......
Life goes on, cluster or no cluster.

More food

 Date: 11/07/2021 (Sun)


I made cold soba for Luis for lunch, he said not nice but ate all anyway.

PapaVoo now has a regular fish monger to go to whenever fresh seafood calls for.
He bought this white pomfret for $12 which I steamed into teow chew style.  It was soooooo delicious.

Meat balls from Donki which I bought at $10 for 3 packets.  Used 2 packets here, with spicy sweet sauce and topped with cheese.  The hearts later melted lolxx....

This was dinner completed with sambal ladies finger, some hearts melted at this time, heehee....

Woke up and found myself alone lolxx...

This was sitting in the chiller, so ya....

Not bad looking but I wasn't satisfied.

I pan fried eggs with the intention to dip the kimbap with the egg yolks.

The boys were not home, so I took the opportunity to clean their hobby room.  The floor was stained with glue, food and all sorts of unknown stuffs, just couldn't be removed by regular mopping.  I scrubbed tile by tile with Jif then mopped twice with water.  Then the room was suddenly brighter lolxx...

I didn't want to work so hard, dinner ta bao.

Pulau Ubin - Chek Jawa

 Date: 10/07/2021 (Sat)


PapaVoo drove me to Changi Village, took us some time to find carpark sia.  Why so crowded at 10.30am sia???
Had wanton mee, happy.

Set off to Pulau Ubin with my baby sis and friend, aiming towards Chek Jawa.
It was raining so my skin and sunblock was saved.


We were surprise to find a lotus pond here, though no flower.

It just made us miss Siem Reap's lotus pond.


We took a break in a shelter to eat snacks and meet a guy trying to open a small durian that was found on the ground.  In case it's illegal, I am not posting pics in case I get him into trouble.  Without proper barang, it took him a long time to open the thorny fruit.  Inside really got durian but unripe and a part of it was rotten.  The process was hilarious even though we didn't get to eat it.


Pic with Common Pulai heritage tree.  After which my old skechers actually made my skin broke and I had to change into slippers.  Luckily I got bring along.

I made it!

The rain stopped when we reached the Broadwalk, the kind of weather I want.  I am an outdoor person as long as the sun is not out lolxx....



A SQ fly over and we all asked the same question "When can we fly again?"

High tight.

It was a very fruitful trip at the wetland.  Got 山猪 but no monkeys.
We were wondering they were fruits or snails, there were plenty of them.

My baby sis went to pick one up, it's a freaking big snail!


We saw some mud crabs, they were really shy.

Found this football size thingy which we couldn't identify if it's a flower or fruit.


The truth finally came to a light with this information banner........ it's ATTAP CHEE!!!!!
OMG!!!

Scenic part of the trail.

Took pics.

Got viewing tower which I didn't and couldn't climb.

Becos of me, we took a cab back to the jetty.  We paid $15 for the 3 of us.  One guy hopped in and he was charged $10, we kept quiet.

Back to Changi Village, we ta bao dinner back to Oakwood.
JJ Lin's virtual concert was a disaster, see a bit here and there till it ended.

I wasn't that tired to be honest, but my ankles hurts, maybe a better pair of shoes will help.  Where shall I go next?  It has been raining so much these days, maybe I will just stay in for the time being.

I hate washing dishes, I hate, I hate hate hate

Bought from Angliss, I baked the whole tray of mini curry puffs and a few mini black pepper chicken pie together.

Though frozen but were pipping hot and fresh from the oven, better than store bought.

Was trying to clear the one piece of dying bitter gourd and some potatoes.  The precious cod was living in the fridge for a month already.
All put together, dinner was yummy.
The idea of getting a dish washer was always in my mind.  Recently I am thinking of buying some disposable plates and bowls which I can use to save my life sometimes.

Had bo bo cha cha swiss roll for breakfast.  Really got bo bo cha cha taste!  So interesting.  It's sweet and soft.  Some ppl complain too sweet, they really should stay out of desserts and stick to savory for the rest of their lives.

Ber came for dinner.  I marinated pork chops with this undrinkable thing.
The pork chops turned out like charcoal, luckily still edible.  I deep fried pre marinated black pepper mid wings, also turned out like charcoal, but were delicious.  I made a small pot of cabbage soup with mushroom for myself and Ber, we slurped up the whole pot.  I lup this chubby little girl so much sia, not sure if she can be my daughter in law in future.

After dinner we went Downtown East Donki, cos I wanted to buy coffee.
But this was too good not to buy.

I ended up with quite a lot.

Bought this cos it's nice if emergency tea break is needed.

After packing and re-organized the pantry, I washed the dishes till pass mid nite.
