Day 105: Steamed hand?

27 nov, fri

In case you thought i died in denmark, no. It’s the mugging bug spreading from Singapore to Denmark. Haha. Exams are like next week. It’s a GG to me.

Clever me steamed myself ytd (fri). Was trying to pick up potatoes that flew to the stove. Got scalded by steam coming out from an adjacent pot. Very smart. (Y). My excuse: The kitchen is too dark for me to see the steam -.-

Day 77: Baking Tomatos

30 Oct, Fri

Cleared quite a bit of my food on that day cos I was going to Amsterdam for a few days. Forced myself to swallow my maize and tomatoes. Haha, there were like 6 tomatoes. Sliced them up and baked on top of white bread. It was yummyyy. Baked tomatoes taste really nice. No more charring. (:

I learned that trains are freaking long -.- We walked past about 10 carriages to get to ours at Kobenhavn H station -.- It was freaking far. I think we spent almost 10 minutes getting there -.-

Day 76: Busybody

Clever me cut myself while washing a fork that I didn’t use -.- The fork was freaking sharp. No idea how it poked into my index finger.

Had my second attempt at bread puddingz. Now with a more custardy and sinful -.- recipe. Estimated the tray size wrongly. Had to transfer to a smaller tray. Haha. But everything turned out yummy (: Better than the first try.

Going to amsterdam for a weekend trip on Friday night (: Bless me with more luck that I will be safe and in one piece like always.

Day 75: yummy meal –> stomachache

Was so happy that I got noodles in yummy soup filled with MSG goodness. Mami bought me that chicken mushroom flavoured mee. Was so excited to see OIL floating on the soup. Haha, cos when I was recuperating, didn’t had a drop of oil. Always boiled vegetables with rice. I gobbled my noodles and the rest of my dinner down super quickly.

look at the oil! (:

was super happy and satisfied (: until my stomach ached -.-

Day 71: This is spades right?

Tried making bread pudding today! Went to AmagerCentret Fotex to get the ingredients. Was pretty fun looking for a preferred recipe online cos there were dozens and tarzens of them, all different styles. Got mine at myrecipes.com. pretty interesting website, can save the recipes you like. tasted cool (: not yummy enough tho ): could have been sweeter and more fragrant. thought it tasted quite plain towards the end. maybe some syrup could have saved that.

“This is spades right?” – classic line by wei jian after he just won the bid for spades in our bridge game.

Day 70: Horrible dinner

biabia — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 18:07:43 +0000

Had this damn horrible dinner just now ): Cos I substituted potatoes with Jerusalem artichoke roots. It’s damn GG. I bought them by accident cos i thought they were ginger. -.- searched online, and read the they can be cooked like potatoes, fry, boil steam. except that they are sweeter and crunchier than potatoes. i was like okay cool, so it should taste better.

Hell, no. It tasted horrible in my soup… there’s this bitter taste -.- Spoiled my soup… Made me add so much sugar and salt. And it ended up freaking horrigle. I’m gonna give away that bag of Jerusalem artichoke roots / Jokeskokker to others. No way am I finishing that. Yuck >.<

Day 67: Coke + ginger

20 oct, tues

Mami got me to try cooking this ginger coke drink to remove like the “cold wind/han” from my body. It’s damn cool. Added a few slices of ginger to a cup of coke, boiled it. Woohoo, the drink is damn cool. I hate ginger but the coke musked the taste very well (:

Realised the interesting phenomenon… Western students are really expressive. They just like speak out their minds, whatever they are thinking about. Relevant or not relevant to the question, they still spit it out. But Singaporean students are straight to the point. Rigourously trained to “ANSWER THE QUESTION” aka “ATQ” (yes, you see it very often in history and SS or even Chem papers), we only speak points that are relevant to the requirements. Anything else, we leave to offline or jokes or random comments, which it is made known that it is random and has probably little contribution to the actual work. Not saying that any one of this is better. Just different styles. and how much you can tolerate the other (:
