I don't know what's coming over me, but lately have been interested in cooking! Yeah imagine that! Lazy bum me! Lol!
I first experimented with desserts: snow fungus with gingko nuts and dunno what else, green bean soup with sago and apple with pork ribs soup. Then I cooked rice with grilled fish and lotus root soup. And yesterday, salmon don with miso soup! Haha...
Ok, granted, miso soup is those instant kind, salmon of cos is ready-packed kind. So basically I just cooked rice and mixed the sushi rice seasoning. Simple enough no? :p So anyway, overall tastes pretty ok, surprisingly! Haha! Well, I can't wait to go to Daiso and buy those moulds to make cute onigiriis, since now I know how to make sushi rice!
Hmmm, I guess cooking is kind of fun in a way. I think it's rather the cooking AND cleaning part that I don't like. I don't mind cleaning up, just not both. And yeah I don't like having anyone next to me when I'm cooking. Because nagging really annoys me, even if you were only giving kind suggestions. Yeah, I get it that you are trying to help, I do appreciate it, but I am the one cooking, so leave me be!
Another day to the weekend again! Can't wait! Looks like I've loads of things to do:
1) Go IKEA shopping - need floor lamp for my MBR for me to read my books, and other stuff, whatever that catches my fancy!
2) Go for a movie with hubs - he owes me quality time, since he was working two weekends ago, and last weekend was spent entertaining others!
3) Sleep!
Can't remember what else le... Anyway lunchbreak over, back to work!

Long Weekend!
It's been such a busy long weekend! Didn't have much time for myself! But it's ok; it's been great fun!
Friday night I had my JC mates over for dinner. Ordered pizza and finger food... Lazy to cook! Finally saw my dear godson whom I haven't seen for so so so long, regrettably! My my, he's becoming such a handsome young lad! :) But super duper hyper! I think it's a guy's trait! It's so entertaining and yet tiring to watch him... Makes me wonder if I really do want a kid! Maybe a girl wouldn't be so bad? :p Anyway, it was great having them over and catch up with each other! Really ought to make it a monthly affair!
Saturday night had my mother-in-law over with his 2nd sis's 3 kids and his youngest sis's family. Pity my dear Juicy isn't here! Missed her la! :p Well, so I cooked soup, prepared grilled fish while hubs fried some veges. Hmmm... Not too bad I suppose... Though the grilled fish could be better! Forgot to put some salt and maybe some herbs will make it even nicer. Should have learnt from my mum the other time! But then again, she's always nagging and scolding, so I just don't have the patience to learn from her. Anyhow, dinner was a success overall!
Tomorrow probably will sleep in, and just laze around at home. Maybe go Expo look at running shoes, or go West Mall for mooncake shopping? Or maybe movies... See how lah. Quite tired after 2 evenings to entertaining guests. Want some ME time! :p
Work's ok I guess. Need to learn to be more proactive and follow up on matters on hand, which most of the time I tend to forget or procrastinate. -_-
Oh well, now to watch New Moon which I bought on Friday! And then shower and sleep! :p
