Valentine's Day???

Valentine's day comes with all the ooooOooo
aaaAAAaaaaa and GAH!!!!!

*if u know me well, u'll know which of the above was my expression!!!*
Yesterday JS poached a nice seabass with my favourite Basil
on top of a bed of *again my favourite* caramelised bacon + onionsand my favourite broccilinis.....:)))))))))))))))))
absolutely yummy

yes, Valentine's day is too commercialised nowadays
-_-
overrated
over-hyped

just say we celebrated "everyone's birthday"
yesterday in the chinese lunar calendar
*7th day of CNY*

hence all the pressies
muahahahahahahahah!!!!!
Now u know....JS writes all his cards, special messages, letters, poems
to me in THAI.
I should learn a new language too
perhaps learning Thai 1st :P

Yes yes I am learning names of my fav food in thai
:)))))))))))
to facilitate my indulgence,
that's the most important bit.

and Monkey got him Buben & Zorweg watch box - Vantage 10

made from solid wood in piano black lacquer with walnut burl inlays

store up to 10 watches.....which he happily filled up in less than 5 minutes
-_-"
yes I know it's too small for your watch collection.....
-_-"
U'll need something like this........
I think this Buben & Zorweg can almost store your collection,
but it cost a huge bomb

-_-
can buy a high end condo in KL!!!!!

Nvm....u save money to buy this huge baby,
I get u the small Vantage 10 1st...

Scrumpylicious Lap Mei Fan :))))

I don't know why we must eat lap mei fan
during CNY,
why we must also consume certain auspicious food..
all I care about is my tummy
Good food good food good food.

and so we went to Imbi Market to get some "lap mei"= waxed meat
all the way fr Hong Kong.

and ended up with kilos and kilos of waxed meat.
-_-
*and Bernard finished everything by the 4th day of CNY*
yummy sausage i dunno wat u call no.1, yummy sausage no.2, liver sausage and the the flat piece of meat is some waxed duck.
Yep it's different fr the normal pale yellowish waxed duck.

so soak them a while in hot water,
then sautee them.
with the remaining oil, fry your rice till almost translucent,
add water + mirin + sake and bring to boil.

in the mean time, fry some vege.

when the rice is ready, place all the waxed meat back and cover.
boil a while more.
This process is to seal the flava into the rice.
sliced your waxed meat according to preferred thickness,
some ppl like it thin, some like them chunky...

I like them the above thickness,
that is cincai cut as long as can makan.
as for the rice,
throw in the corriander stems and a few dash of top quality soy sauce.
*fr Ipoh where else!!*

Ta-DA!!!!!
one portion ain't enuff!!!

good with champagne as it cut through very well with the oiliness of waxed meat
Ritzenhoff champagne glass fr Paragon Singapore.

"Money come money come!!!!!"

well, I'm not a fanatic over lap mei...
but since it's a once a year affair,
I tend to crave for it.

Cousin Jessie & Monkey at Genting

Nope, we didn't ride anything cept the kiddos who spent the whole day under the sun,
the above roller coaster cost RM 12 and u dun even get to sit on it....

u merely stand inside its cage while it throw you around as it go up and down
side to side on its rail...
such ferocious velocity......can die!!!!!
yes the cage is hung on its rail!!!!!
GAH!!!!!

Casino was packed with ppl of all walks,
I dun gamble hence it's not my place.
instead doin statistical analysis for everyone on the roulette table.
-_-

Finally whatever I've learnt in Uni came into use.
Stochastic process, Bernoulli,
probability, stochastic integral, Brownian motion, quantitative analysis,
Gaussian process bla bla bla bla.
DAMN!!! I missed my maths!!!!
