No SMOOTHies day !!!!!!!!!!

25 Apr 2008, Friday - Do I enjoy drinking smoothies? Yeah... of coz. As I olwez wish that my life will be as smooth as smoothies. But today.......... TOTALLY NOT A SMOOTHies day!!!


As usual, today I have to go to work. In the Early morning (6.30 AM).... my husband got a call from the Queen to send her keys to her grocery stall. We just woke up....what to expect? Of coz will be a bit slow motion. 15 minutes later.... another call asking us to rush to her stall faster. Ok....fine..... ..... oh yeah.... b4 i forget, 2 minutes before we left home, there's no power supply at our home.... that's the 1st sign of bad day....

When we reached market, I went down to look for her. Without noticing ppl around me, suddenly she's standing in front of me. Complaining why we were so slow...........bla bla bla..... Well.....it's truly a 'pantang' (BIG NO NO) for ppl growling & complaining & mumbling early in the morning to me!!!! that's the 1st not so tasty Smoothies.

got back to the car.... my husband told me to cool down. then, start work. at around 10.30am....... blackout again!!!!!!!!!! gosh......... that's the 2nd bad smoothies. It's truly hot and the power supply got ok again at 12nn.... which means no early lunch.

12.30nn.... lunch time. My husband and I went for lunch at the nearest restaurant .... Nam Choon. Today is an important day for me. Why? Last nite my superior told me to follow him to a client's BOD meeting today after lunch time. So, felt truly excited during lunch time as I'm truly eager to attend one. However, after lunch..... about 2pm, my boss still had not call me to get ready to client's office. about 20 minutes later, he appearred in front of me saying........"I'M BCK FROM CLIENT'S OFFICE. " I was shocked!!!!!!!!! ..........and very disappointed and sad. :( :(
"Client called me at around 1pm ++, so, i rushed there. Here's the amendment we need to do in the accts. Pls help me check." he added. I was still in shock and disappointment.... my only reaction to him was "Ok". IT'S MY 3RD back luck sign... THE MOST BITTER SMOOTHIES.

arrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh..................... This really drag down my concentration in the afternoon. Bad news lead to another bad news. I got a call from a colleague from KK office. She called to informed that the audit working papers for a client's stocktake cant be found. The assistant (who already resigned) told her that he had sent them out yet there's no such record by the admin staff. In addition to that, there's no copy of the awp in the correspondence file!!!!!!!!!!!!! gosh..............it's the stocktake working paper!!! Got to think of a way to solve this problem. ......4TH sign of NO SMOOTHies for today!!!!!

cool down..............

then, it's 5pm!!! time to go home!!!! my husband saw me look sad...... so, he decided to bring me to buy Latte at Equator Cafe. guess what? when we reached there....it's 5.50pm....that's exactly 5 minutes late.... they close from 5.45pm to 7.30pm!!!! arrrgggggghhhhhh................. 5th sign!!!!!!!

There's a chinese sayings : When your luck is bad, there's always a road leading to it!!!! I always do not believe it b4..... but today..........i truly understand what this means!!!!!!!!!!!

So, today......there's already 1/2 dozen of BAD SMOOTHIES for me!!!!!!!!!!!

At nite, my husband brought me to Equator again to enjoy our drinks there. Luckily, it's open and we manage to find seat despite of lots of customers at that time. Thanks darling.

HOPEFULLY TOMORROW WILL BE A BETTER DAY!!!!!!!

Cooking Experience

19 Apr 2008, Saturday - I'm staying with my mother in-law, and she's the big chef in the house. Therefore, I don't have to worry of what to cook for the family. Thanks, my queen. So, my husband sometimes will said that he never tried my cookings!!!! :( And challenge that I don't know how to cook. :( :

Today.... at last.....I have the chance to prove that he's wrong about the latter statement. Today is the first day I made dinner for my beloved husband and myself. What I cook? hah....good question. We went to buy the ingredients after we back from work at about 3pm.

1st station, buy prawns at Sim-Sim. We bought 4 big pcs of prawns....costed us RM18 (RM45 per kg).

2nd station, wet market at Bandar Kim Fung. Bought a bunch of vege which costed us only RM1...yes it's only RM1.00!!!!

3rd station, Tai Chung Supermarket. We bought a pack of fresh abalone mushrooms and a pack of japanese tohu.

It's truly a great feeling buying those things......

Once reach home, I rinsed the prawns and seasoned it with light soy sauce, and salt. Rinsed the vege...... mushrooms......

5.30pm..... cooking time!!!! Well....it's truly hot in the kitchen. Put the prawn with the japanese tohu to the steamer as steaming is the best way to keep the fresh taste of fresh prawns!!!

This followed by frying the abalone mushroom with garlic. mmm....it's been almost 3 yrs since i last cooked this dishes when i was at college.

Ever heard of frying vege with salted egg??? Well...this dish was suggested by my hubby. So, jsut giv it a try. Results???? Turn out not as what he expected it to be....as he's expecting it to be look like 'wat tan' (read it in cantonese).

It's almost 6pm!!!! Dinner time!!!! phew...........it's really hot cooking only that 3 simple dishes.

here's my husband comments on them :

1. Steamed Prawns with japanese tohu & egg : mmm.... a bit salty but the prawns really taste nice.

2. Fried mushroom with garlic : ok, this is good. but just too much of sauce. reason? it's because i put too much of water in frying this dish as i forgot that it'll produce it's on 'water' while cooking.

3. Fried vege with salted egg : mmm.. this seems like frying with egg and not salted egg. hahhaha

well....it's not easy to cook..... but i'm truly happy that we both really enjoy the session well.

what reward i got???? A BIG HUG AND A BIG KISS .....;)

FAQ - Are you pregnant?

This is my 5th month into my marriage life. Time flies..... busy with my quite heavy workload with minimum time for exercise. What more.... having late dinners and sitting in the office for more than 8 hrs..... all these lead to a big tummy since my big day in last year Nov. In addition to that, I now prefer to wear flats to work rather than high heels..... this add another point to the ppl around me.
The FAQ when friends & relatives meet me..... ARE YOU PREGNANT, MY DEAR? Even my mother in-law once in a while asking me the same question. and my Standard Answer is : No, my dear. Too busy for THAT. I'll inform you whenever the good news has arrived.
I know that every1 is caring for me.... but it's also giving me more pressure. Of coz I want to hav a baby too, but this cant be force rite?
Hope that I can have a baby in the near future. ;D
