bundle of joy (:

knowing that i had a long day yesterday, PP decided to perk my day up with this :)

Kinder JOY! the old-school version is known as Kinder Surprise and had a hard chocolate shell. this comes two plastic halves and a little spoon to scoop up the nutella-like cream :)

PP thought that i would find it too sweet and i did, so i spread them on oat biscuits. if u ask me, Meiji Plain Crackers would complement them really well :)

this is mokku.

 

he likes to stand on his head and flip around because he's a 不倒翁 (budaowong)  :) go try it or get it for someone you love. it wld really make their day :) :)

and yes, PP calls me laopo2be :) :)

cotton candy in the sky

the day before yesterday, while on the road with PP, we were blessed to be able to see 3 types of clouds in the sky!~

 

"Cumulus Clouds: The word cumulus comes from the Latin word for a heap or a pile. Cumulus clouds are puffy in appearance. They look like large cotton balls..."

"Stratus Clouds: The word stratus comes from the Latin word that means "to spread out." Stratus clouds are horizontal, layered clouds that stretch out across the sky like a blanket. Sometimes a layer of warm, moist air passes over a layer of cool air. Stratus clouds often form at the boundary where these layers meet. "

 

"Cirrus clouds... are a third general type of cloud. The word cirrus comes from the Latin word for a tuft or curl of hair. Cirrus clouds are very wispy and feathery looking. "

These are the 3 general types of clouds as learnt from here. and we saw them all in a day! how's that for a geography lesson :) i guess my studies in JC din go to waste! thank you ms ting :)

yummylicious~

what do you do when lighting is poor and ur photos are all poorly taken and u can't wait to try to yummy mango sago? you use POLADROID la! lol :)

anyway, 姐 made my favouritest and yummylicious dessert with the recipe i told her about from here. and since she asked for feedback, and im a totally qualified person with professional experience (lol), ill give you a write up!

what was good:

almost everything la! the syrup is not too milky although you tot so， 姐. although im surely not a big fan of milk, the syrup had a nice milky aftertaste and it also made it not so sweet, which is just the way i like it :) and the mango is great! the previous time i tried this recipe, i bought 2 mangos that were unripe and sour, while the other 2 were over-ripe and too soft. ur mangos are just right babe, tts reli wat matters most i tink:)

what was bad?

the pomelo was sour leh :( so it kinda spoils the taste alil..but its bearable la, esp when u eat it with the mango :) however, im the kind of person who saves the best for the last (are u?), so the mangos are last for me! 姐, how long did u cook the sago for? it was just right but cld do with abit more chewiness :)

if ure a cooking type of person (i.e. like AUNTIE!!!!!), go try this out! and if ure as nice as 姐, i dun mind trying some and giving u constructive feedback *muahahaha* ;)
