Indian Festival Invitation

This would be one of the dishes prepared by my mommy during CNY, kinda miss it... So I tried to make it myself as well, looks attractive? Tastes good too!~

Yesterday was the last day for the Indian festival (I've 4gotten the name somehow). We've tasted their famous "sweet rice" during the 1st day, the flavor is really weird & hard to accept ~.~

Both of us were invited to join their prayers in one of the units here. This is a hand-made flour idol by the Indians themselves.

A kilo(kg) of bananas cost around AUD 4.80 =X It's my 1st bite of banana ever since I get here... Fruits like kiwi, strawberry, apples, & others are a lot cheaper than tropical fruits.

My boi decides to have pizza for dinner since both of us feel kinda tired to cook. Today is extremely windy & cold even though it was sunny out there in the afternoon.

Siew Pak Choy with Minced Pork & Prawn

Home Brand rice snacks which I bought from Woolworth, Clifford Gardens. It tastes really nice & pretty cheap as well =D Here in Toowoomba, there are some other food / daily product suppliers like Black & Gold, Coles... they provide cheap stuff but definitely not all nice!!!

The ingredients needed are Siew Pak Choy (boiled until cooked), minced garlics (stir-fried), minced pork & prawns (marinated with salt, sesame oil, tapioca flour, white pepper, & egg yolks) & some black bean stir-fry sauce. This would be my self D-I-Y dish & it turns out to be so nice, ichiban!!!

Just making use of the dried bean curd that I managed to grab from Chinatown, Brisbane to make this simple soup with egg white, minced garlics, & pork pieces. First attempt... but still it tastes not bad after all =P

As you can see, I've been posting nothing else but food pix in my blog. There's nothing much happen in my daily life here, spending most of my time for studies (classes, assignments, revision), laundry, cooking, room keeping, online gaming...

It's Windy

Today's the 1st day of our uni's mid semester break, everything seems normal under the bright sun except the weather... What's with the strong wind??? This afternoon when me and my boi went out for shopping, I was so scarred that my skirt might be blown up in public at any time. Luckily, it never happens... LoL

What would u do when you're bored to the extreme? Hehe, I'd play online games for sure! My bowman character in MapleStory (Aquila) has finally reached Level 72. Woohoo, congrats to myself! It's so cool to play with 3rd job skills especially strafe. Haih, my boi's ice mage already Level 81, how am I gonna catch up with him?!

By the way, I've received a shocking news from my sis via Gmail that my whole family had "Denggi" fever & they had been admitted to hospital for several days. I have no idea how did it happen but I surely do feel heartache when I 1st get to know about it. I'm here saying a prayer for them, hoping that they'll get well soon and stay healthy as always!

Happy Birthday, Mommy!
