Bread Pudding

Suddenly have an idea to bake after a tired work tonight. As a theraphy to release my tenses on work. Simply use ingredients ready at home and try out a Bread Pudding recipe. Indeed this is a very quick or instand bake as the prepation is less than half an hour! The taste is quite nice but it could be better if I put enough raisins and cinamon. It is very easy and suitable for those look for a quick preparation. You must have a try especially your house have day-old breads!



The texture is in between cake and pudding...





Ingrediants

6 slices day-old bread
2 tablespoon butter, melted
4 eggs,beaten
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
2 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar (I replace it with brown sugar as I prefert the aroma and taste)
1 teaspoon ground cinamon
1 teaspoon vanila extract

Direction:
1)Break bread into small pieces into baking pan. Drizzle melted butter over bread. Sprinkle raisins if desired.
2) Mix eggs, milk,sugar, cinamon and vanila in mixing bowl. Beat well and pour over the bread. Slightly push down bread with folk until it is soaking in the mixtures.
3) Bake in preheated over for 45 minutes.

欢喜地 Food and Tea Hong Kong

Initially plan to give a try at Black Cayon or Splendid for dinner tonight but the menu seems not attractive to us today. Ended up with Food & Tea(欢喜地), for a Hong Kong's 茶餐厅style dinner.













It is my first visit there and the foods is quite nice and charge in reasonable price.I personally feel it is better than the Hongkie restaurant,which is just next door.

My new pal.....

凡人

人。男人。女人。大人。小孩。
为什么微笑?
为什么哭泣?
为什么快乐?
为什么悲伤?
可以有千万个理由,也可以没有任何原因。
有些时候,快乐不一定微笑,悲伤也未必要哭泣。
有时候到了极限时,不是快乐到流泪,悲伤到狂笑吗?
喜怒哀乐,只是一种感觉,很抽象。
说穿了,七情六欲,凡人也。

My first shoot....

慵懒的周末。近来的天气很善变,忽晴忽雨地,让人捉摸不定。
那里都不想去,什么都不想做。沉淀心情,为明天又是一个新的星期做准备了。
天空突然灰灰地,屋外也开始下起了毛毛雨。一种让人很想入睡的感觉。
突然抬头,看见屋里楼梯上的一扇天窗,突然好像一种灵感来了的感觉。
拿起了相机,拍下了第一张用DSLR的照片。谈不上任何技术或美感。自己还再摸索着构图这一块,实在有待改进。When can I shoot like a pro???

这张照片,一种纪念,心情的记录。我的第一次。。。。献丑咯。。。>_<



突发奇想的,下次可不可以从这同样地窗口拍下窗外的蓝天白云呢??应该会比这灰灰的天空好吧。。。

Birthday party for the little one

This is a back dated post.
I had attended Jean Hern's very first birthday party last Saturday. Initially I didn't plan to attend it but Peggy is very kind to give me personal call for invitation. I have to show face in courtesy. Nothing surprise as it more like a kids and seniors gathering. Maybe I am neither belong to both group. I just stroll there and baby sit the baby with 'mum mum' (foods).

Here is few shoots I took with my handphone.

What's that?


Cut cake or destroy cake??




Two nieces



Naughty baby try to express how yummy the cake was...


Gifts from us-patrick bag from sister and mom and shoe from me

Boring days

Recent life is bored. Day by day passing by. Nothing seems special and nothing seems excited. Is this good reason to allow me not updating my blog? *_*
I have quite routine life lately. Work, home,TV and coffee. I know I seems like wasting the precious times but I really in kind of lazy mood lately.
Received bad news last week. Company decided to suspend merit increase this year. I definitely understand why this happen as the worldwide economy is in crises. We definitely know we should support and stand in same line with company. But some kind of disappoinment still. Just hope the worst not going to happen.
I need a booster...boost my energy back...
I need a good news....prove me life is wonderful...
I need a surprise.....to feed my restless gen......
I need money....to allow me keep shopping... *Blek
I need everything....to fulfilled my greediness... *fainted??
When enough is enough??

Holidaysssss

It's been quite some times I didn't update my blog since beginning of Sep. I admitted that I am in blank minded lately. Don't know what to say and don't know what to write. I thought because of I was busy as usual for the China holidays. Normally lots of things to do before we had our 'honeymoon' for a week. Indeed it is more like a rest than a holidays as we are damn tired after the 'war'. But when holidays, I am still in empty mindset. What's going on to me?? With just a blink, my holidays is almost finish. Before it come, I thought I am full minded with a long lists of activities for the week. But now I couldn't remember anything special for what I had done.
Anyhow, there is at least a good day for me spent with meow, tony and SQ for meow birthday celebration. Though it is ended up with totally different for what we had plan before but still it is home with joy and fun.
We celebrated the belated birthday with meow on Thursday. We planned to have a hotel stay but ended up with a day tour in Penang as the room rate for this Raya is overpriced. We shopped and spend almost whole day in QB. Unbelievable?? Haha... we spend almost 2hours plus for a refreshing massage in mall. There is a shop for fish spa just open lately there. At first we think bout trying it but ended up with a foot and body massage. I took the package include foot massange, guasa and body massage with promotion rate RM120 for 120 minutes. Indeed it is quite expensive compare with BKK but we all are so satisfied with the treat. I had very good sleep end of the day after few days of insomnia.
I had my 'spendthrift' again which make me so regret la. But I am sooooo love the cardigan I bought from GAP. Gai la...still can't correct my shopholic attitude. Anyone can teach me how to stop the 'pai ka' attitude? Why I keep pampering myself?? Alamak...
We treated meow lunch at '龙的传人'at QB. Meow, hope you enjoy the lunch.
We ended the day at Tao's louge at Auto-city at night. Chit chating and take some photo. Suddenly feel we all had changed alots after years. Complicated feeling strikes me. We knew each others more than 10 years. All these years, we had gone through many things ourselves. I am glad that we still able to gathered together. Yes, I know this is friendship, real friends. NO matter years and years passing through, no matter how we all changed, we still use our heart to maintain our friendship. Cheers ~~~ buddies!!! Friendship forever!!!
Still left another 2 days for my holidays. OH my gosh....what should I do? Need to have proper rest? Or need to fully utilize my leftover holidays??
