If I ever have a chance to buy another new house, I will want one with a big kitchen. I love cooking and if time permits, I bake very often too. I have seen very nice and huge kitchen with a nice island in the middle. This round, I would also make sure that I decorate the walls with wall sconces to create a warm and inviting feeling my kitchen. How would you love to decorate your kitchen?

I love going to the morning market most this time of the year (if only I have one of the new ipods to capture some pictures from the we tmarket). This is the only time where they sell Kuih Bakul (nian gao) besides lots of what we called the “Chinese New Year vegetable” from China. Although we do not have an alter at home or perform any praying rituals, I will also get a basket of freshly steam Kuih Bakul just for our home decoration purposes. I plan to get mine by next week, just before we leave home to celebrate Chinese new year at hometown. How about you?

My dad missed my grandma’s cooking and I remember he said that my grandma used to make very nice Lemak Nenas with Ikan Sepat Masin. Although I have no chance to taste my grandma’s cooking (she no longer cooks this dish since she can’t take coconut milk anymore), I manage to stumble upon Miche’s blog Simple dish online on this dish.

Here is my simplified version.
- Fresh Prawn
- Sambal Ikan bilis (I use leftover from our favourite Nasi lemak stall)
- tumeric
- belacan
- thick coconut milk ( I used instant coconut milk)
- Salted ikan sepat goreng
Verdict -with salted fish added (only once everything is boiled so that the bones would not come off easily) the gravy is so tasty. I can just drink spoonful of gravy even without rice. However I think it would be more spicy if I add more sambal to this dish (as you can see the gravy is not that red in order to accomodate hubby’s sensitive stomach).

I love food, I love doing anything with food! Once the kids grow up, I see myself getting into a business with food. Although business is relatively small at the moment, I sometimes got lost at what I am doing already. If I plan to grow it, I think I will have to use the project management software to have a smoother operation.

If you are a “nuts-lover”, you will surely get crazy with a bite of these peanuts. Unlike those you get outside, this is made by a friend’s mom and I tell you, even “nuts-hater” like myself could not stop munching them.

Priced at only Rm12/jar, this peanuts are being deep fried with secret recipe. If you have a secret recipe like my friend’s mum, you can make this and sell it from home while waiting for an answer from your healthcare job search .
To order, just place a comment and I’ll see if I can help make deliver arrangement, only in Klang Valley.

I was wondering if I would want to upgrade myself again and further study into something I have passion for. I have no regret leaving the workforce as I have found something I love to do while keeping an eye on my growing up children. I know there will be no turning back for me to the employment world. I know there are a lot of things I can do right now and I see bright future ahead of me. I am now eyeing on one of the online degree programs where I can work with young children from babies till age 8. You really have to agree with me that there are still interesting courses when you take up courses from online university.
