Mom, The Sausages Look Like….

I like to make things as simple as possible in the kitchen. As long as it’s edible and simple to make, then that’s mua’s recipe. As you can see, I am no chef but I like to eat the food that I like to eat and I also like to make the food I like to eat…provided it’s simple enough to make. Anything that involves complicated blendering, chopping, hours of cutting….not for me. RM16 sausages…no preservatives, no MSG, no processing, everything very de-healthy sausages… Don’t look down on these sausages. These pork sausages are very wholesome and as unprocessed as they come. That’s why they cost RM16….six for RM16, so each sausage is about RM2.6666666. They’re almighty delicious, though so it’s worth it. But considering the fact that the price of just about everything on earth is going up, I’ve been on this mad rampage to keep every meal under RM15. This meal is a couple of bucks over the budget…only the sausage alone, so what the hell lah, right? But here’s the thing…. I cooked these sausages for lunch and we didn’t finish it…t’was just me and Jared (Joshua eats his lunch in school) so we had leftovers for dinner. For dinner, I used the cheat way to cook which is to dump everything into the wok (for me, it’s the rice cooker) wan which is my specialty…the one-wok-cook method. Works very well, I must say. So, dinner was like this. Leftover sausages from lunch Minced pork – RM4 Onion & garlic – RM0.50 BBQ meat sauce – RM1.50 Rice – RM2 Vegetables – RM1.50 Salted vege – RM0.50 All in all, dinner tonight cost me RM10 exactly. Terror or not? Dinner for three under RM15….mission accomplished! Hee hee hee… Just for the sake of it, I thought the picture of the said expensive sausages were pretty interesting. I leave it to your imagination what it looks like. WARNING: If you’re under 25, please consult with your parents what these sausages look like. If you’ve got it all figured all by yourself, you’re naughty and should be spanked. I volunteer to come spank you. Now, off to bed before I go there with my clothes hanger (Marsha’s version of the tee-na/rotan/tang-thiu/theng-thiau/cane).

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Demanding a Balanced Lifestyle

We live in a world choked with demands….demand for more money, better lifestyle, more holidays, smarter kids, bigger house, posher cars….etc. People walk around with spiritually unimportant goals in their minds driven by the need to succeed and be better than others around them. Hong Kong. South Korea. Japan. Most Asian countries suffer from this ill-fate which have caused a horrific rise in the number of suicide rates in the said countries. Malaysia is no exception as well although we’re very slowly gaining ground on our neighbors. Just picking up my son from school can become a stressful affair. I’ve mentioned this to a few friends of mine over the phone and all of them cluck their tongue shake their head. It’s end of the year and the kids are getting their test results back by now. I overheard a couple of tai-tais (housewives) gripe about their kids’ results. Mom: I don’t know-lah. My kid did not do very well this term. The best also got 95 only. (NINETY FIVE ONLY???) ...
