My 1st attempt



For over 20 years, i have been avoiding this.No matter how others keep saying that its good. I shied away from it.



I had been very skeptical of it.



But seem like i can't run away from fate, from destiny.



It had to come to me, screaming for me to try it..demanding that i should give it a try...tempting me...





i will feel bad if i let this chance slip again away like that...so i told myself, heck..just give it a try..who knows?mayb it will be good?


TA DAA!

Authentic Hakka Dish

LUI CHA!
Hakka will have this on the 7th day of CNY. They will cook 7 different vegetable dishes. Take a bit of them all into a bowl, pour in the "tea-soup-thingy" and tralalala, u will have lui cha!

I had miss out the ones made by grandma, and she's gone now. Lucky my aunt made it that day on tomb's day(chinese all souls day). Its never too late right? All those vege she used was planted by herself! She told me she cooked lui cha once everyweek. My cousin had a really big bowl of lui cha, triple of wat i had!


And boy!its really nice bor

not bitter. her's was the less bitter version. I kept saying its yummy, that my MUM, who had never ever cooked any lui cha in her life cos she don't like it also before this, copied the recipe from my aunt! What about that?!!WAHHAHA

For ur information, mum cooked lui cha today. Not too bad for a 1st timer...MMM~all these goodness, vege is gd for health too!

Talking about this. A close fren of mine, Jaqq told me a very funny story about lui cha. She was at Singapore, i tink last year. And she saw this stall selling "Thunder Tea Rice". And she was thinking wah, must b some special dish lo, so she head for the stall lo.

Only to see it was Lui Cha!hahaha... got "lui" in hakka means Thunder and "cha" means tea in hakka.LOL..

mmm, i like lui cha now, the less bitter ones of course. :-p

bells was telling me her house's lui cha the "tea-soup" was clear brown color, mine also clear brown color, but rs's was greenish, and some shops also greenish..

But i guess its all quite the same right?

HEEE

Oh ya! i was quite busy lately. Had a 3 day seminar. The 1st day was quite boring as they are talking about stuff I already know.

so me and oink doodled on a piece on paper. I added this, he added that, and this came up!


actually hor, he only doodled the "sotong" (octopus) , the rest are my materpieces..my creative work of art. WAHHAA

hmm, i tink rs is in there. Or mayb its just spongebob.

Luckily i saw something that catches my eye. An eye candy!



Isn't he cute?he's too young for me though. Just 20. i think my camera likes him too, see how only he is clear n the surroundings was blur?He was actually moving around on the stage.
