Mashed Potato with Fresh Button Mushroom

这几天每当走过冷藏部
那一颗颗圆鼓鼓的蘑菇就爱跟我招招手
让我被它们那洁白的模样给着迷
害我对它们朝思暮想念念不忘

终于…… 终于…… 我抵不过诱惑

弄了些马铃薯泥

把它们摊在盘子里等待命运的降临

用一点奶油把洋葱丝抄香 把蘑菇片放下去
加点盐调味 一份简而不单的温馨早餐就可以上桌了

Pan Cake with some Pops

added 1 tbsp of poppy seeds into my pancake mixture
it goes superbly well with fresh strawberry jam!

3 Nov 2009 の 三菜一汤

i made dinner again
it has been ages
since i last cook a proper meal
.
this dinner
was to clear off the ingredients from the fridge
.
Brussels Sprout from my future lai-lai
did some study before cooked it
in chinese it's called 抱子甘蓝 o_O"
*boiled it (added salt & oil in water) for few mins
*chop some garlic
*fry them with butter
*add in the boiled sprout n sauté for a while
西红柿炒蛋
Stir-Fried Tomato Omelette in Tomato Sauce
过水油麦 Boiled Romaine Lettuce
西洋菜排骨汤 Watercress Pork Rib Soup
我想说话：

这顿饭
让我想起一些我不愿意想起的事
和一些我不想记得的人
。
从来没有煮过西洋菜
是因为在我最黑暗的日子
这道汤不断地不断地
出现在我最垂丧的晚餐里
。
这次煮
也是因为人家硬硬把一把菜
塞进我的购物篮里
然后它就这样进入我的冰箱
住了一天两天三天
开始发黄了
才硬着头皮煮了这锅汤

Blueberry Cupcakes

原来心情低落的时候
做蛋糕才会成功的…………
.
'boh gam guan' with my last failure
i challenged this Blueberry Cupcake!
by changing the 'kena cheated' ingredients & recipe
with my own intuition

this time it succeed gracefully~
no more charcoal at the bottom loo...

this little cupcake is full of surprises
*some says it looks like illness with those purplish polka dots
*some enjoy the sourish surprises among the sweetness
good thing must share~
tq everyone whom shares my victory!
tq for all the encouragement!

我会加油！
