Buah Melaka



Hello again. I am quite aware that my blog is turning into a food blog these days. I will not deny the possibility of me turning into a food blogger someday with my peaking interest in cooking. However, I am just a rookie in this field called cooking.


You will see.

Today I will present my version of a kuih called Buah Melaka. There's something odd about this kuih right? Can you tell what is it? Something somewhat off-colour about it. Makes it look like another type of kuih altogether, right?

Korean Seafood Stew


Good day dear readers. So I have been away for quite some time. Not literally away, just mentally away. You know? Alright, let us go straight to today's entry.

This semester, for those who do not know, is the last semester of my life as an undergraduate. Having been in UTP for almost five years is truly an amazing feat. Amazing in the sense that, a considerably large chunk of my life has been spent in Tronoh. Yea, I understand (I can see you shaking your head in disbelief. For someone who is 23 years old, 5 years is 21.74% of their entire lifespan up till now in case you don't have a calculator with you now).

Of course, we are inclined to add a little zest to our bland lives. And even more so, after living in the same house with a person who is fascinated with everything Korean. This stemmed our interest in Korean food. Hence our little experiment(s) (we cooked this approximately three times already). What you see on your left is a seafood stew. We looked up for the recipe from the internet, and so this dish was produced. I especially love the tofu left overnight. All the juices and flavours mysteriously seeped into the tofu after being left overnight, and what we get is delicious tofu.

There is only one drawback though. The three of us (my two housemates) can't really deal with spicy food. We finished everything nonetheless. With eyes watering while chugging down several glasses of water.

Pets

Dear readers. Today as I was browsing the channels, something immediately caught my attention and stopped me abruptly from mindlessly pressing the next channel button on the remote control.

A hippo is climbing on a bed. After a blunt groan, the bed fell apart. A man is reprimanding the hippo gently.

Apparently, I was watching Jessica The Hippo on Animal Planet. Yes. The hippo's name is Jessica. I think Jessica the hippo is pretty tiny for a hippo. Probably just a baby. Jessica managed to find her way into the house and wanted to try sleeping on a bed for a change. Heheheh. It's really interesting. I want one. Not a hippo. But a nice, furry little cat will do.

Stress-Buster


Today, I will share my simple method of relieving the tension-compression action of everyday life.


My latest precious little cutie. M.A.C Fafi lippie.

Another precious little cutie. M.A.C Fafi lipglass.

Finally, the M.A.C Heirloom brush set.

OOooooh....this is how I reward myself. However, these are not the only rewards I have given myself. Teehee! Today I am in the mood to show off my M.A.C collection. Next time when I feel like it, we will get to see my Anna Sui and Shu Uemura cosmetics collection.

Dear readers, some of you might feel shocked at the rate of my extravagant splurging. But I assure you, if I cannot do this, if I am restrained from this, it is possible to go insane.(Please refer to the entry "Obnoxious" for more details.*ewah...macam marketing some kind of product plak!*)

Despite the splurging, I did manage to save up. It all depends on the financial planning. Another valuable knowledge to acquire. Dear readers, this might come as a second jolt of shock for this entry. "What? She saves?", or something like that. However, it is quite long to elaborate in this entry and therefore I will touch this subject in a later entry.

In the meantime, feast your eyes on the fantabulous cuties!~
