Childhood cracker. 

There's this one time my brother's friend posted a photo of a burger. He bought it at a stall outside Public Bank. Near C121. And my bro was like, 'Che, we have car to use now? And I was like yea. Why? I'm hungry, he said. So I asked him to finish his maths and off we go and grab some food. There it is. Even bought Wu Cha. The guy have us the wrong ones! Not sure if the cashier key in the wrong ones, or what. But we're lucky that they allow us to change our drinks. Cheers! 

Bro made this. Haha. Potato chips! Yummy. Love it!

Happy birthday Daryl!

Okay. This post is dedicated to the only and only DARYL CHONG YII SHIANG. (I hope I spell your name correctly). 

Happy 20th Birthday! You're finally in your twenties huh? Lol. SO OLD. HAHAHAHA. Anyway, hope you had a great 20th birthday. Thank you for everything that you've done. Which is picking me up and bringing me home. HAHAHAHA. Each time we're out with our friends. Nah kidding. Thanks for being such a nice friend. Please stop hahahahaha and lol-ing every single time okay? It can be annoying sometimes you know. 

Come back to Kuching and cook for me liao! Lol. I'm waiting for your nice food. 

Although I've only known you for.. 4 years? I would say since Form 4. (We're still not very close that time.) But definitely closer during Form 5. Never thought that in this short period of time, we've actually become really close. Let's go jogging when you're back again! I'm never forgetting the fourth day (is it the fourth? I couldn't really remember) of Chinese New Year while going back home. You know what I'm talking about. Haha. It was one amazing experience.

Okay. I shall stop now. I'll end this with some pictures!

Take care!

Chocolate mud cake bites!

I should blog more since I have the time now.

So I couldn't sleep last night. Well not only last night la. It's been awhile already. Insomnia! :(

Searched for videos to watch. My to-do-list every night. *wink*

And I found one video on how to make chocolate mud cake bites.

Disclaimer: If I want to cook/bake something, I will make sure that the instructions are too complicated. Or it takes up a lot of my time. Or a lot of ingredients needed. I want the recipe to be EASY and SIMPLE. Easy pisey.

Ingredients that you'll need:

1. 150ml of water
2. 100g of dark cooking chocolate
3. 80g unsalted butter
4. 120g caster suger
5. 2 eggs
6. 130g self raising flour

Place the water, butter and chocolate into a pot and melt it over a low heat. 

After melted, add in the sugar. Stir until it dissolved.

Let it to cool.

Meanwhile beat the eggs! Slowly add in the cooled mixture into the eggs. 

Sieve the flour into the mixture of water, chocolate, butter, sugar and eggs.

Mix well. There you go. 

Pour the mixture into your baking tray and off it goes into the oven. 

There's no need to pre-heat you oven. Just turn on your oven to a 160 Degree Celcius and bake it!

Wait for it to cool before cutting them into pieces. 

Melt some chocolate and dip your mud cake bites!

You can put them into the fridge or leave them in a cool place.

That's it!

Easy right?

That's all for now.

Xoxo.

Ice-cream in a ziplock bag!

Hello People! I'm back.

I've sort of crave ice-cream. But there's no ice-cream in the fridge. How now? Fear not. I've watched on YouTube on how to make ice-cream in a ziplock bag. It's super easy. And I'm gonna share it with you nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. 

You'll need a few things.

1. 2 ziplock bags. Small ones and a big ones. 
2. Milk
3. Vanilla essence
4. Sugar
5. Salt
6. Ice

Place the milk, vanilla essence and sugar in the small ziplock bag.

Place ice and salt in the big ziplock bag.

Place the small ziplock bag into the big ziplock bag.

Now here's the fun part! SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE. Shake the bag for 8 minutes. 

There you go - ice-cream in a ziplock bag.

Easy right? 

Try it! It wouldn't taste as good as the ice-cream that you buy la. But it'll be a temporary substitute ma. 

That's all for now.

Xoxo.

21 Food Superstitions We Still Believe

Hello People. Haven't been blogging lately.


I was reading Yahoo! and I saw something that caught my attention. It's about 21 Food Superstitions We Still Believe. It's interesting. So I thought why not share it on my blog. Since I've not been blogging lately. So here's something to cover up.


EGGS & EGG SHELLS


Eggs symbolize fertility, so farmers would scatter broken eggs into their fields hoping they would bring forth an abundant crop. Also, if you break open an egg and find two yolks, that means someone you know will be getting married or having twins. And when you're cracking your egg, make sure to crush the eggshell afterward: otherwise, legend has it, a witch will gather up the pieces, set sail, and cause terrible storms at sea.


GARLIC

Everyone knows that garlic wards off vampires. It can also ward off the curse of the evil eye.


SALT

If you spill salt, you'll get bad luck. To remedy your misfortune, throw salt over your left shoulder with your right hand to blind the devil and keep him from taking your soul. Risky business, using salt.


BREAD
If you cut open a loaf of bread and see a hole (a.k.a. a large air bubble), that means somebody will die soon. The hole in the bread represents a coffin (spooky!). You should also cut a cross into the top of your loaf before baking, otherwise the devil will sit on it and ruin your loaf. Now "hot cross buns" makes more sense.


NOODLES

In China, long noodles symbolize a long life. So you should never cut your noodles-that means you're cutting life short. Instead, you should slurp up long noodles up without breaking them.


TEA

Tea, also used in divination (we won't get into that), has lots of superstitions connected to it. For instance, you should never put milk in your tea before the sugar, or you may never get married. Seemingly contradictory, undissolved sugar at the bottom of your cup means someone is in love with you. Spilling your tea means a stranger is about to visit you. And let only one person pour the tea-it's bad luck if the duty is shared.


COFFEE

If there are bubbles in your coffee, you should catch them on your spoon and eat them-you'll unexpectedly come into money. Or, we guess, expectedly, since you caught the bubbles, right?


ORANGES
Giving somebody an orange makes them fall in love with you. (We've tried. It hasn't worked. Yet.)


RICE

Tossing rice at a newlywed couple supposedly brings the pair good health, wealth, happiness, and prosperity. We say: waste of perfectly good rice. (But not dangerous to birds!)


SILVERWARE

If you drop a fork, a woman will come to visit. A knife, a man will come to visit. A spoon, a child will come visit. So be careful when unloading the dishwasher!


PARSLEY

Parsley has a surprising number of superstitions around it. Planting its seeds will help a woman become pregnant. If the plant thrives, that means her husband is weak. And whatever you do, don't bring it to a dinner party-giving it as a gift brings bad luck. Giving parsley as a gift will also bring bad looks because, like, who gives parsley as a gift?


HOT PEPPERSYou should never hand a hot pepper directly to a friend-superstition has it that is will bring discord into the friendship. If you want to give your friend a jalapeño, put it on the table or counter and have them pick it up.


KNIVES

Passing a knife directly to someone will do the same thing as a hot pepper-"separate" (as knives are known to do) the two friends. That means you should never give a knife as a gift, either; if you do, make sure to ask your friend for a penny as "payment."


PEANUTS

Don't eat peanuts at any kind of performance, whether it's a play or a racing event (really!). The legumes are believed to give the performers or players bad luck.


BIRTHDAY CAKE

The tradition of having a cake with candles on a birthday began with the ancient Greeks. They baked moon-shaped honey cakes to celebrate the birth of moon goddess Artemis-but believed evil spirits were attracted by the revelry. By saying "happy birthday" and burning candles, spirits are chased away. Today, lots of people believe that blowing out all the candles on your cake will make a wish come true. Fools!


BLACK-EYED PEAS

In the South, they eat Hoppin' John, made with black-eyed peas, for good luck and prosperity in the new year.


APPLES

In the Jewish new year, Rosh Hashanah, people dip apples into honey to symbolize the hopes of a sweet year to come. And back in the day, people believed that if you cut into an apple and counted the seeds, it predicted how many children you'd have.


ONIONS

If you stick pins into a small onion and keep it on a windowsill, it dispels bad spirits from your house. Yeah, we don't know.


GRAPES

South American countries believe that you should eat 12 grapes one-by-one at the stroke of midnight to symbolize each month of the year. If the grape is sweet, that particular month will be a good one. If it's sour, it's going to be a bad month.


BANANAS

You guys, NEVER cut a banana. It's bad luck. Just break it up into smaller pieces if you need to. Also, you should never bring bananas on a ship-the boat will never catch any fish or, worse, get lost at sea.


CHOPSTICKS

In China and Japan, sticking your chopsticks into a bowl of rice upright is an omen of death. Arranging chopsticks that way makes them resemble incense, which the Chinese burn to honor the dead. Also, if your table setting has an uneven pair of chopsticks, that means you'll miss a plane, train, or boat.


There you go! Enjoy reading!


Quite interesting right?


That's all for now.

What I've been up to.

Recently I've been going out almost every single night. Almost and I mean almost.

Last Saturday (28.9.2013) - Went Hartz for dinner with Eric. It's been so long since I last went there. I went there for their ice-cream and mashed potatoes and this chip thingy. Don't know what it's called. I don't know what occasion that day. There were so many people. Like its bulan Ramadan. But it's not! In fact it's over already. I had no idea why there were so many people. Anyway, Eric told me to get the ice-cream first. He has this feeling that it'll finish right before I'm about to eat it. So I did. And it really ran out of ice-cream in no time. He was right! But it's just common sense ma! So many people of course finish in no time la! 

After dinner went Popular bookstore. Needed to buy some books for my students. I really need to find a way to teach my student. It this way doesn't work, I'll try another way. I'll continue trying until my student understands. I won't give up. And so is my student. We were there quite late. I hadn't had time to buy all the books that I want to purchase!

Last Sunday (29.13.2013) - I asked daddy to buy coffee from KL. Ever since I first taste this coffee back in the year 2011? I've been loving it until now. It's quite pricey for a packet but it's so delicious! 

Tuesday (1.10.2013) - Time flies! In a blink of an eye, it's already October! That's so sad. In a few months time, I'll be in my twenties! That's so depressing. So old already! Time can you stop for awhile? So I suddenly remember this song called 'wake me up when September ends'. If I'm not wrong this song is by the chemical romance. So I decided to post this on Facebook and twitter. Haha. I find it funny. So I posted it. My friend asked me if I'm awake! HAHAHAHA. Freda is even funnier. She texted me asked me to wake up! I was blur. Was wondering why she sent such a message. Asked her and she said September ended. And I should be awake by now. So funny this girl! Piano lesson is on today. After piano went out again with Eric and my brother. Went to Smart bookstore looking for some books.  I need to go to Popular bookstore because they sell the books that I want to buy for my students. Ended up empty-handed. Stopped by at Wu Cha. Was there for few hours! Played cards. It was super fun. I had a really great time.

I just realized that I didn't really go out le. Lol.

Oh ya. My naughty student called me Camry! Toyota Camry! Walao eh. My form 5 student. What la. I told him to whatsapp me if he'd any question. He did. And he was like cam can can can Camry Toyota Camry. Walao eh. Funny student. He told me his phone auto correct le! 

Okay I shall stop here. Just a quick update! Stay tuned for more.

Banana smoothies!

Hello people!

So I made smoothies and decided to share it.

Ingredients that you'll need:

1. Banana

I use one banana. Half cup of milk. One quarter of yogurt. And few ice cubes. It all depends on you. Whether you want more ice more yogurt milk or banana.

It tastes so nice! So refreshing! 

Love it.

That's all for now!
