a healthy & eventful sunday

yesterday was quite an eventful day for a lazy person like me.

unlike any of my days off, which i usually idle in front of the computer, sis and i went to pasir ris cc for an hour of badminton with jang, emily's thai housemate. literally sweat there, as theng was only playing for 15-20minutes until she gave up. i rested for only around 10minutes - a good improvement considering the fact that i just came back from a 13hours flight the day before. usually, i'd be lying in bed or idling like a sick dog for at least 24hours, after a long flight.

after that we went groceries shopping at west plaza before heading back home.

bought some spare ribs, baby kailan, cherry tomatoes, chinese herbs (for soup), chopped garlic, onions and other stuff. had some leftover prawns, fish, mushroom and vege from our steamboat dinner the other day. so decided to make steamed fish with mum's asam fish sauce, fried omelette, chinese herbal soup, and fried kailan.

planned to cook dinner for the house but i did not inform them before hand...so i later found out that FL was on vegetarian diet that day. and YP was about to go out for his DOTA dose. all the food for two. we surely won't be able to finish them. so YP decided to leave later. i immediately started cooking around 3pm for an early dinner. (FYI, i haven't been cooking for months. and more so, my cooking has always been an amateur level. hence, i was stressed) i sweat as though i was playing another round of badminton. everytime i cook, i worry how people will think of my cooking. whether it's too salty or too bland, too sweet or too bitter.

after 30minutes or so, i finally cook up 3 dishes and 1 soup, with theng's help.

YP bought 2 packets of steamed rice & a packet of deep fried pork from west plaza after much haggling, as the stalls weren't keen to sell plain steamed rice without you buying their dishes.

we had our early meal. my right hand was shaking all the time (either from the badminton or cooking, i don't know)

anyway, here are my dishes:
(will take better pictures next time)



cook white fungus drink with red dates today:

after the meal, sis and i went to white sands library & then back home for the night's rest.

you must've had quite a day too...
