: : Birthday : :

Forgot to mention that collegues at work celebrated my bday with me. Sponsored a tiramisu cake! Feel very special. Pity that there weren’t any alcohol in it. Auntie M’s tiramisu does and it’s absolutely marvellous! *Dreamy sigh*.

Dinner always look good when one is hungry after a long day at work, even if it’s a no frills dinner.

The uncooked veggie looks a bit peculiar. Very hard to describe. A picture tells a million stories but yours truly hasn’t yet begun to dig through the fridge to take pictures of vegetables yet. It’s a very soft veggie but very sweet. Always cook with egg. Very watery though. Comes from the veggie alone.

Stir-fried Mushroom Chicken

Stir-fried Mushroom Chicken

The stir-fried version of chicken with mushrooms. A bit oily from the cooking oil. Granny just stir-fried with onions. A pity that no straw mushrooms were added in. Or the black mushrooms. Oh well. Beggars can’t be choosers.

Granny : English name? Soya bean plant.

Uncle Cyril : No lah! Another version of alfafa sprout!

Granny : No lah! Bean plant! Looks like green bean plant!

Uncle Cyril : Hmm… more like soya bean plant.

Oh well. Local name is tom yau. Slightly crunchy and very chewy. Good for digestion, etc., etc.,etc. Sometimes cook with white rice wine (Chinese version). My favourite.
