Toys

I was trying to search for some toys for the little one and everything seems so pricey. Anyway, I got him a flexi ball. Before this I bought a cloths book (fluffy chicks) and lamaze learning block from someone at work place. The condition of the 2 are still good and I washed them throughly and now are ready for the little one.



Here is the super big toy for him from Rachel ah-yi! He can only play this when he is older and I will keep it nicely until then :) thank you thank you.

Cute pieces from friends

We received a few more gifts from some friends for our little one who is coming soon. I took this when I was playing with my new phone retro effect apps, the terry bath towel with 4 washcloth from uncle Yee Seng.



A few sets of clothes from Ai Chee and Chun in US. It is so kind of them to have to pass the gift to me through their friend who was on business trip to US recently



I purposely snap this romper because it's so cute. See the butt piece? Piak piak!



Thank you my friends

Yong Tau Foo

It is a very exhausting day for me. I woke up in the morning to the market and came back with lots of ingredients and nicely packed and keep in fridge then to prepare the ingredients for yong tau foo. I had to quickly have my breakfast nasi lemak before I proceed to wash my room's curtains today too and hang them back to the curtain rod because that's where the sun will be every day. I told the aunty in the market that I want taukee for yong tau foo. She thought that I want to cook those soup yong tao foo which I never like at all and recommend me the fried taukee she had made. I didn't want. I want to stuff them my own. The fried one was so hard and "fried". How am I going to fry it again. She never understand what I want and I gave up with her.

I only used a few ingredients for the yong tau foo because if I use more ingredients, the whole bunch of the stuff will be really a lot. I chose 8 lady's finger, 1 medium egg plant, 100g tauhu pok and a few pieces tau kee. The stuffing is made of fish meat where I mixed with minced pork because fish is really very expensive. I mixed them well with salt, starch, soy sauce and pepper.

After washing and cutting the yong tau foo ingredients, I began stuffing them then fried them in hot oil. It took me so long to fry because I did them a few pieces a time to avoid the stuffing from coming out.



Then, the fried ingredients will be used for cooking. The sauce is made of water, tau chiu, salt, pepper and oyster sauce. I thicken the sauce using starch mixture. It took me around 3 hours for the preparation and cooking process but I like the end product. Satisfying lunch!



Tired, but still sitting here typing after cooking dinner for hubby and have to rush to get ready for wedding dinner tonight. Chao!

Photos gone..

I have a new android phone and I used the sync feature to sync everything from my google into the new phone because I uploaded my old phone's contact to google's contact. I didn't know that the auto sync will also sync my photos online into my phone. I have this blog for around 6 years and the photos I had uploaded all the while accumulated up to 2700++. When I saw the photos in my phone gallery, I was thinking what the heck, 2000 plus photos gonna eat up all my phone memory pretty fast. So what I did without thinking is to DELETE all the photos since I have them in my blog. How much would I know that these photos are exactly the same copies in my blog. A few seconds after I press the delete button, my mind was jumping like crazy, heart beating so fast. I quickly logged into my blog and see.. wwwwwwwwooooaaah, all the photos including my banner's all gone. I was deep depressed due to the lost. Any how, I manage to find some latest photos and uploaded them back into the latest posts. The rest, I have no idea when to find them. So, please be careful next time with your phone auto-sync feature. No more next time.
