More of cooking mood

That's right, I'm so freaking into cooking now but please don't ask me why cuz I also don't know the true reason behind it. hahahaha... Whenever I situate myself in the kitchen, I'm so overwhelemed by the whole atmosphere and this is another place where I think I'm really belong to (not just any kitchen okay, it has to be fully equiped, big and CLEAN..hygienic issue).

I put such a tremendous effort in cooking yesterday. Started off with baking New York Cheesecake. The preparation is pretty quick but waiting for the final result is a pain! Seven hours no kidding! For more info for this recipe please visit

However, I didn't waste my precious time on waiting but instead I used that time to cook Laksa sauce...that's right Sarawak Laksa. For an unknown reason, I just love this dish so so so much. I spent around 3 hours something cooking the sauce and that was alright. With Laksa sauce the longer you cook the better it tastes.

So that was my day yesterday. I just a two bowls of Laksa for lunch just now...hahahahahha..yeah..I cooked sauce one day in advance and for the rest, my maids helped me prepared this morning while I was freaking busy doing my own business. Overall, successful and wish I will have free time to do the same thing (of course different recipes) soon.


A slice of NY Cheesecake...yumm

Laksa..wicked

FIN..*burp*

Linguine with Salmon....

I haven't cooked for such a long time since I came back to Thailand so I decided to use the opportunity of having no parents and brother at home to cook!!! Actually, despite of the need to cook is also boredom that drives me to do so. I will have the whole house for myself for the next two days. Living in a big house by yourself is driving me nut. Anyhow, I woke up early *surprises* and took off for a grocery shopping with a little bit of shopping window as well...hahahaha.. it's a girl thing you know! The traffic wasn't that bad when I went to Siam Paragon and so was the way back, yet I felt so terribly sorry to those people on the opposite lanes... you can do the math right.. suffer people suffer...

I got home with my growling stomach, pretty loudly and scary actually. My initial plan was to go there and get some ingredients for New York Cheesecake and Laksa and probably I'd grab some lunch from there. After a short reminiscing, I totally forgot about my big pack of linguine in which I bought AGES ago and planned to cook a nice dish for my mom. Oh well, today no mom but I still have my big stomach to feed. Add more things to my shopping lists, salmon, cream and Italian seasoning. It didn't take me long to cook the sauce but the most painful part was waiting for the linguine to be cooked. However, the outcome turned out extraordinary... yes I need to use that word because it really did okay! Oh well I guess you just have to try but please give me a yell before you do come or else my guard will beat the crap out of you cuz you come at the wrong time...hahahha... why am I talking so much shits today! well blame it on my boredom...

The sauce itself is pretty simple, on a hot pan sauce, you just add tomato can sauce with a wee bit of soy sauce and cream then add salmon. Easy and simple as that. I think it's faster than fried rice but please don't count the cooking time for the linguine. Overall, it was a really nice dish, fast and easy to cook but make sure you get fresh salmon like I did...yum!

Tomorrow is New York Cheesecake and the following day will be LAKSA..yum... Time flies but sometimes I wish I could fly faster. I'm so hard to please huh! oh well what to do.. LIVE WITH IT PEOPLE!!!

Built To Last

I've looked for love in stranger places
but never found someone like you
someone whose smile
makes me feel i've been holding back
and now there's nothing I can't do

cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last
it's built to last

all of our friends
saw from the start
so why didn't we believe it too?
now look, where we are
you're in my heart now
and there's no escaping it for you

cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last

walking on the hills at night
with those fireworks and candlelight
you and i were made to get love right

cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last

cause you are the sun in my universe
consider the best when we felt the worst
and most of all, most of all
most of all, most of all,
most of all. most of all
it's built to last

what now...

It's been over eight months since I left NZ and I don't know it's for good or bad. In this past eight months I already fled out of Thailand twice to Kuching and Singapore. Next year probably will b the same. I'm planning to go to England, France and of course ITALY!!!! I just want to live my life to the max before I reach 25,eh! Please don't ask me why 25, I just like that number that's all. Also, it gives me a sense of maturality that's why 25. So a few more years to go *sigh*. Wish me luck people.

I think every now and then we all want to be a traveller. Nobody loves to get stuck at the same place for a period of time. We need to get out there and see what God has created for us. It's not like I want to go all over the world, I do choose where I want to visit okay! Italy is definitely located at the top of my list, why? I guess because of its rich culture and arts.. definitely arts. hmm....I don't care but I have to go there next year, I have to do whatever it takes just to get myself there (okay that doesn't sound right..hehehehe). Wanna go with me?
