Yummy food prepared by CK(the part time chef). This is what we had for lunch today.It's delicious! We like salmon in all forms whether it's raw (sashimi), smoked, or poached.
Shopping Tips :
If you like salmon, you can get C & G (Cheap and Good) frozen salmon from BK5 Giant. You must go in the morning in order to get the fresh ones. This is what I got right after Sunday 1st service!I got mine for $26/ per Kg. today.
My family loves sweet desserts. Each time after we had a meal, we will always look for something sweet to munch, otherwise the meal is not considered complete. It can be just a stick of Kit Kat, a small block of chocolate or a piece of left over cake.
Just few days ago, right after lunch, as usual my kids will open the fridge and look for desserts. Much to their dismay, not a single sweet dessert is left for them. So, in order to fulfill the craving, we all agreed to make some quick-mix truffle. I made these within half an hour with the eager help from Ben and Tim and as you can imagine, 1/3 of the portion has actually eaten before we can fridge it till evening.
These truffles were modified by Ben and Tim. They preferred chocolate rice. I prefer the cocoa powdered ones. Ck….. Loves them all!

Have you tasted "pickled pumpkin"? I haven't until last night. It's very crunchy, sweet and sour at the same time. It taste very much like any other pickles namely, papaya,manggo or zucchini. But, this one.... ROCKS!
Last night 3 HF(Genesis,Chrysolite & Emerald) met to have a time of fun! A time of games, fruits and nuts. We had lots of food and fruits, but my eyes and mouth were set on this interesting homemade "pickled pumpkin" by Susan Sim. I like it very much and I'll try to make this, one day.
