Kuching pics

This one was entitled "what's for lunch?". We had a photo contest posted and shared with our WA group.

It was raining and the bus ride to lunch venue was delayed..

You surely got hungry after watching the crocodiles being fed...haha

This became my phone home screen photo for quite a while..

Crocodiles

This is my favorite pic from the trip to Kuching's crocodiles farm last April.

No wonder why they said that crocodiles are descendant animals from prehistoric times.

The pond was covered with a thin gauze-like fabric. I like how it was reflected in the water adds to the mysteriousness of the beast.

Banana yogurt drink

Banana, yogurt, milk blended together. Missing out ground cardamon powder. Could not find it at the store..
I put in some sugar for a sweeter taste. Good enough to break fast with while waiting for full dinner.

Stock take

One of the reasons to do a stock take event is to know if a product is selling ot not?
When it comes to us humans, as our age increases, what does it take to stock-take ourselves?

Best seller?

         

 I was at the biscuits aisle when somebody grabbed this biscuit pack..saw that it's almost sold out, down to the last 3.  That was yesterday..
Since I am travelling tomorrow, I decided to buy it for snack time. I got the last pack. And I also bought this one below..reminded me of the biscuits in the old days....(anyone seen golden biscuits shaped like a chicken but melt in your mouth..tastes like kueh bangkit)..

Btw both biscuits are good! The fact that they are individual packs ensure that they are still fresh and cracky once the package is opened.

Kit kat promotion

I absolutely love Kit Kat promotion at the supermarket. The gifts that come with it are lovely and of good quality. Ones that you can use for a long time....unless you broke it, of course.

Just got this container today. The size is nice for bento lunches. Dry bento lunches..as the lid is not that airtight. 

The last promo came with stackable containers, one of them has divided compartment but the size is bigger. Didn't get that one.

I got these mugs instead. Love the rose designs. I love that these are heavier mugs than the ones that I bought before. Couldn't get the other 2 designs. Waited too long and the free gifts gone..lesson learned.

Creamy, golden and yummy

Who doesn't love caramel...

Ramadhan is coming

It's a date!...or I should say dates..

Leeks in tomato soup

Trying out leeks, the vegetable. So far, I like them in soup based dish like this instant noodle in tomato soup. Had googled and most recipes came up white and creamy, so I had them in my carbonara sauce. The Chinese promoter at the supermarket likes them in scrambled egg. Maybe I 'll try cooking them llike that one day

Dare to be different

I was putting on these apples for sale display when I came across  this one apple with small leaf attached..it's a rare sight here..

Apple Jazz from New Zealand.

Sardine sushi sandwich

Excited to do this that I didn't notice that my wholemeal bread left only the top and bottom crusts and 1 single piece of the in-between..Because of the limited supply, I decided not to remove the crust.
Do it again next time...

Dinner kebab

Trying out shawarma chicken recipe without the cinnamon (and allspice powder). Put coriander powder instead. And also I just used chilli sauce instead of the original sauce (maybe I should use Thousand Island dressing..mayo+ chilli sauce) ☺

I used this Roti Sehat aka Lebanese bread. The filling is too much that I couldn't properly rolled it in.

Lunch for today

Mixed veggie rice with tempura chicken, cucumber slices and sambal belacan, of course☺

Ubi kayu (tapioca)

How long ago since you had tapioca? They are a little bit brown because I cooked them in my little rice cooker which doesn't have a keep-warm function. Instead they were cooked since I was busy practising for my Jazzercise class. :-)

Lunch on the go

In an hour break for lunch and solat, it's just easier to bring something from home no matter how simple the cooking is. And I finally have reason to use this thermal lunch container. Not that good when it comes to keeping the food warm. Maybe I should make a thermal bag/carrier for it...

Would love to own a Zojirushi Mr Bento or Classic Bento...

A favorite meal for lunch

Nasi pulut (glutinous rice) with grated coconut seasoned with salt and sugar, cabbage kimchi and fried salted terubuk with squeeze of lemon. A balance of tastes....

The Usana bottle is where I put in my pm supplements.

Peach domuts

Aren't these cute? The peaches are exactly like the name..donuts.  Instead of round, these are flatter.

Cream cheese dip with fresh dill

Ever since I work in the supermarket, I found myself wanting to try out recipes. Not just any recipes but those that includes herbs or veggies that I have never eat before.

This recipe I got from a friend. Dill is a herb I have never known before but somehow the taste is so familiar. It taste great with this cream cheese dip. Just mix in cream cheese, garlic powder and chopped fresh dill.

I love it with Lay's Salt and Vinegar. The extreme 3 tastes combined so well together. I would put a bit of sugar and some lemon for other chips.

The leftover makes a great spread for bread too.

Ready for deliveries.

Hope that they will be happy receiving these towels.
