Fun in Kitchen

Living for 21 years and been having steamboat since as long as I can remember for our yearly reunion dinner during CNY yet dont know how to prepare the seafood for steamboat. Yup. That's me lah. So embarrassing, I know. But never too late to learn!! :)

I learned how to cut off the pointy edges and the feet of the prawns. It's not difficult, but the prawn is kinda slippery, so the trick is to hold it gently and cut it as fast as you can. Oh and I learned how to clean and cut the squid! :) All this while I took for granted these things are done and didnt really offer to help. (Well I did help to clean up the dishes but that's different... it's so much easier compared to preparing food..)

Anyway. Sense of accomplishment apart, I'm starting to miss Msia and everyone here. My smelly pillows, my grandma, my friends, my stereo and CDs, my fav ah beng's asam laksa etc etc. Wanted to write something in mandarin that day, but somehow didnt. Told u I'm a sloth. But I'm gonna miss every bit of Msia nonetheless. The smell of the air, the blue bright sky, the heavy downpour on certain days and the smell of after-rain air, my best friend's hugs, my powderpuffs, my goh's challenging tease, the late night yumcha sessions with shihui and songjun, all the outings with the gang, even my dad's nagging. :P well maybe not the last one. heh..
