My Bf's Husband Cooks


I went to visit my friend in Singapore (again. . ) . Unlike our friends who are based in U.S. and Europe, this SG based mom is luckier cos she gets to enjoy Asian style stay-at-home- momhood  _ she still get to enjoy a house maid/help.



What's even better _ his Swiss- German husband is a kitchen expert. Yep, this Filipina wife knows nothing in the kitchen (haha, I could hear my friend saying _ I'm too much,haha). It's the expat husband who manages the kitchen. My friend is so very lucky!!In short. . totally  senorita! haha.
Imagine this  GM (general manager_ covering the whole Asia) husband still take time to do homecooking  for the family. That's so sweet. He even managed to prepare a dinner for us, one weekend when he was at home. Everything was labor of love, with home made pasta he himself prepared from the scratch. That's so awesome!



I took a snap of his kitchen. See those condiments and spices, he even has a lot more in the other side.So that night, he prepared two home cooked pasta :



spinach  pasta



cheezy pasta



buttered baby carrots



creamy spinach



chicken in white/red wine



This was my first serving. They were all good!!! I swear! I helped myself up to 3 servings. I actually forgot how the dishes called. I just named them by obvious ingredients.



One day I will try his recipe at home. My friend is one lucky girl. Cooking husband is a rare find and very kind indeed.

Cool Blog

 I thought the name of this  beverage kiosk is cool _ Cool Blog. It's another pearlshake drink. I didn't even bother to try it. This was in Malaysia and I lived for ice kachang. I went home with swollen tonsil. haha. I wonder if the owner is a blogger too. :)))

Sunny Sunday


Suddenly it's scorchingly s-u-mm-er!!! When the calendar hit 15th this month, the cool wind ceased blowing over our bedroom windows. Before the 15th, the weather thu consistently without rain was kindah not so island summer. Nights were still cold and windy. But now, it's hot hot really!
Yesterday , Sunday lunch at home was alfresco baby!!!!




Nothing fancy thu'. . but the colors of our food were so sunny, thought they ought to be consumed outside.



Would you give me a pat on the back, cos on this so lazy Sunday, I managed to cook sweet & sour fish. haha! I had to cheat a lil' thu'. I made use of a bottled chili sauce and just created some dash of miracle from there:))) But the fish was so fresh! I just had it scored from a fresh wet market that early morning. And hey, the cooking was in the middle of a loaded laundry hours. I should have had taken some photos of my laundry  mess happening at the other side.



Summer fruits - watermelons and mangoes, in abundance this season and always monopolize our table. Gosh, they come out so succulent and in their sweetest form this summer. yummiest!!!!






Nothing could wipe away my kitchen perspiration when my family says : I'm the best cook in the world, haha. I choose to believe them acctually, haha.
Happy summer everyone!!!!
