Chicken Tuna Spaghetti

You'd probably won't find this recipe anywhere as we just simply created it on the fly just few minutes before going to Sunday Service. Ended up didn't attend because it wouldn't be possible to cook it in time for lunch. Instead we wen't to choice daily to pick up some ingredients such as a tuna can in olive oil and a vegetable for dressing.

 

Spaghetti provided by dear. Chicken meat from my fridge. The other 2 are bought from choice daily.

 

 

A perfect looking vegetable is a good indicator that it might be laced with by product pesticide. Make sure it is washed thoroughly before consumption.

 

Actually we tried many times to get this shot. If the vege had a mind, it would probably be dizzy by now.

 

 

 

Dice it ?

 

Add salt to give it some flavor.

 

Should be done by 10-15 minutes time.

 

Cook with water. Something about this vege that doesn't taste as good as those local vegetables. Not to mention that it is also quite pricey.

 

Chicken meat done.

 

Tuna just take out from the can and ready to serve.

 

Just checking to make sure the Spaghetti is really done. Something about the spaghetti, its a bit rubbery. Maybe because we didn't put in olive oil ? Cooking a self created recipe can both risky and fun at the same time.

 

Everything else taste great except for the vegetable being the odd ingredient out. Should have use a tomato instead i think. According to dear, the vege would taste nicer if we mixed it thoroughly with the tuna and the olive oil that accompanies it. It was a good try though. We finish all in 2 servings each.

 

My dear. There is a running joke that I'd always play on her. Calling her my new Human Auto Gate System. Last time always have to open the house gate myself, soon I will have an human automated one. :) Just kidding. Was thinking of trying to cook, Chana Masala with chickpies, potatoes and rice next weekend.

Lazy Afternoon

Last 2 day have been very hot. Sweating even when sitting down reading a newspaper with the fan blowing across the face. Did the earth just spun too close to the sun again ?

 

A lazy afternoon would not be complete without a lazy cat taking a cat nap on an umbrella. That "don't disturb me" face is priceless.

 

I cannot emphasize how sharp this Tokina really is. Worth every cent paid.

BCCK Sarawak ICT

Went here looking for a thumb drive. Specifically a cheap thumb drive. I would never have drove here for the ICT Expo unless dear ever been to BCCK before which she didn't.Me finding a cheap thumb drive and she visiting BCCK for the first time basically a killed 2 bird with 1 stone scenario.

 

Brought the Tokina this time around.

 

The place look fantastic and worthy enough to hold any event or wedding I might add. A very posh wedding that is.

 

Didn't seem to have enough parking space, we actually parked in a roundabout of all places.

 

 

Not the type of crowd I was expecting from an ICT expo. Kuching will never have the same volume of visitor as IT Fair at PWTC. Shoulder rubbing shoulder ? No thanks. Ample walking space ? Yes please.

 

The lighting above the ceiling the quite eye catching.

 

Netbook are small enough for portablily but the computing power is quite lacking.

 

Got canon booth but I didn't check it out. Would have been nicer, If there is a L lens test booth.

 

A lot of antivirus product on sale, Avira, Avast (with a newly redesign logo) was on display.

 

 

Bought a thumb drive from this booth, I must mentioned that the promoter girl here was quite the looker.

 

Aside from the hardware, software booth. There are also those selling hp, credit card and even service provider. Mostly GLC company such as Sains. Spend around 35 minute here before we went back for dinner at home. A worthwhile visit is the verdict.

Sunday Rest

Just looking forward to a good sunday rest. So many things to do, so little time. Even with proper time management it is still not enough. Waiting for the ND8 filter to come so I can try slow shutter in daylight.

 

The backyard have undergone a mini renovation to built a mini wet kitchen. Since cooking inside will oil up the whole dining room, cooking outside would be the only viable option. The electric chimney was a thought up option but judging by the way chinese cooking is, it wouldn't be as effective in reducing the oil splash. Right now the current cooking place had oily tiled walls and tiled floors. Needing to clean after each cooking is certainly not a workable solution.

Sorry Ice Cream ... @Hielo

but I'm in love with Hielo ....

The logo design is very attractive, simple, clean and not so clutter. And the slogan itself ? a very bold statement... considering how I am not a fan of yogurt but my dear swore to it like singing hymn of praise on a Sunday morning. :P

 

The owner himself. Hardworking and good looking at the same time, modern day entrepreneur. Incidentally he is dressed up just like my character in Sim Social minus the hat. Just a coincidence perhaps or finally I get the whole dressing up trend ?. If so how come I still dress like an uncle from the 1990s ?

 

Ah.. this fellow. Look rather familiar. The source of my affection, crowning glory in a diadem and some say Lord Voldermort's wet dream with the Elder Wand. Okay scratch the last part. In short my better half.

 

Okay, I was confused with the menu for the first 3 minute I was in there. Until we saw the instruction menu on the right most side of the wall. Basically you choose from 2 different base, the size and the toppings/dressing.

 

Okay ... since it was the first time, I think we forgot to add in the waffle flower shape thing in our order. So it might look a bit aesthetically off but I can assure you, look doesn't make a food delicious. Back to the product, I can say I do enjoy the yogurt very much. It taste much better than those FMCG that they put on the market. As for dear, I think she enjoyed it the most as she had the larger helping than mine (this doesn't happen very often when it comes to food). So the question is, will we go back again ? Yeah sure, maybe with some friends in tow.

 

Sorry Ice Cream ...but I'm in love with Hielo ....

it was a lovely day

Went to Sentosa Sports Centre but was a bit dismayed that there wasn't any free court available on a hot sunday afternoon. We improvised a bit and decided to go for a walkabout at Reservoir Park instead. Not really that bad for a second choice to be fair. The blueish sky that gradient downward looked just like a giant gradient filter being put from the ground upward until orbit.In short it was quite picturesque and peaceful, the important component in life that inhibit stress.

 

a lot of people doing exercise, a positive sign.

It was her idea for the shot above and I think it turn out so much better than my original perspective..

Beautiful day for walk around and pak toh in one. Sweaty date anyone ?

Cheers.

Looking for fruit rojak....

We actually came here looking for fruit rojak after collecting the car plate, didn't realise the place have changed name into cool delight ? For a moment there I thought I was blocked off in the real world too ... haha. Used to be call Boon Khai ... then it struck me that there is a place call Boon Khai at Premier 101. it does makes some sense now .....

Didn't really like any of it. Metahon at Hui Sing and the stall behind Jubilee Ground is lightyears way better than here.

In the end ... fruit rojak not found.

InB4 Inception

I think it's safe to say that we finally found what we were looking for all along. After all the dust and doubts have cleared, we felt that the decision to go ahead with the wardrobe purchase was the right one. Looking for a suitable have been rather difficult especially when all things are not bought in a set. Since we've been to a couple of shop and unable to find the right one after browsing to countless of selection of ready made ones. Some have nice design and matches what we required but the material and construction is dodgy at best. Some material and construction quality matches our criteria but sadly the design wasn't really feasible due to lack of drawers and hanging bars. Lastly we settled on a custom made ones instead.

 

Sunday Service today was good. Haven't sang all the hymns of praise so wholeheartedly for as long as I could remember (and I do have very poor memory, hence why I wrote some of daily interaction here). There is that sharing on a funding for a dialysis centre by the church. We filled part A, B, C of the marriage form few hours ago. My proper bahasa was a bit rusty and we encountered a few question mark on the form input requirements. What's a domisil ? Never seen such a word before. After a  quick google, turns out that it meant citizenship. Luckily dear had a friend whose soon to be wife worked at JPN, she manage clear up some of the confusion which allowed us to complete the form with confidence.

 

It's good that the long school holiday have started, which technically means lesser jam everyday now until early January when the school would reopen once again.

 

Cheers.

When a bargain bin ...

replaces another. I was looking for a replacement jogging shoes for my worn and torn dunlop bargain bin which I got for RM 30 around 1 and half year ago.

 

after clocking close to a hundred KM of jogging and mountain climbing, safe to say that one of the best RM 30 I've ever spent on.

 

Rather odd that the shoes had a similar torn places.

 

Close up of the damage area. I'd say it justify for a replacement.

 

A few days ago a colleague of mine mention that there is a buy 1 free 1 sale at everise bdc. Incidently the old shoes was bought during a similar 50% sales from the same place. Is that what you call lightning strike twice at the same place ? 

 

For RM 25 only, this shoes screams bargain bin 2.0!

 

I gotta be honest, quite fancy the yellow stripe design. Which is one the reason I wanted this shoe that much. Oh yeah I do realise that it's not actually a jogging shoe but a badminton shoes instead.

 

If based on the previous pair I had, I'd expect this one to be able to endure similar 'abuse'. I would wear this alternately with my other badminton shoes which I bought not long ago from Sentosa Badminton Court. That one was a bit pricey at RM 69. Kinda regret buying that one when I can have the same functional shoe at just RM 25.At least the rest of the money could have been used for other goods such as listerine which already need replenishment.

What can I say ? But a good buy.
