Chilli's Chicken Spaghetti Got No Chicken

In my personal opinion, it's good that some of these food outlets offer free meals for kids. I mean, they make quite a fair bit of money from the main courses that they offer.

I don't go to Chilli's very often....well, I try to eat out as little as possible because I believe in eating healthily and I don't know what they do in the kitchen and what they put in the food. PARANOIA!!! :-) No lah, it's just that, I prefer to cook and eat at home and it is cheaper too. Once in a while, it's fine.

One day, I took my kids out to Chillis to eat a quick one before we catch a movie. And you know what? I got two instant complaints.

One, is that their FREE meal for the kids got no meat wan. Like, it's called chicken Spaghetti but there is nary a piece of chicken to be found. I was thinking that maybe there is one or two pieces in there? Looked inside and nope. Not a single piece in there. Wah....damn kiam siap lor. It is FREE, I know but heck, at least validify why it is called chicken spaghetti instead of just spaghetti.

And then the other complaint is about my main course. I ordered shoulder lamb for my dinner and they messed up. I waited patiently for about 45 minutes but the lamb shoulder never arrived and we were almost late for the movie, by the time. So, I asked the waiter about the dish. He smiled and walked away into the kitchen without really answering my question.

I suspected something amiss and asked again. This time, they walked in and out and checked the machine that they place an order in.

Now, I can't wait any longer because the movie is about to start and they should just answer my question and not walk off like that. I had to ask a few times and yet they did not admit that they forgot to place my order.

I can see it on their faces already so, I told them, 'Look, did you forget my order? I can't wait anymore, the movie is about to start in about 7 minutes. Just tell me the truth...did you forget my order?'

The man did not admit it. Instead, the waitress walked up to me and said sorry about it.

Well, at least one of them had the balls to do it. All I wanted was an answer, so just give it to me and stop giving me the runaround.

Stargazer - Stretch Those Sides

I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...

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...

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...
