I AM BACK

My dear readers, I finally finished the freaking exam, and I am back to my beloved blogsmophera ;-)) and shhhh.. Don’t ask about the exam, I pray and I hope I have done enough to pass. Anyway, let’s worry about it in March, when they release the result. Now, let’s go back to food!!!


I have to apologize for being absent for that long, although I didn’t blog, but I still eat like a foodie (may be more, I think). So don’t worry, I will never forget that I am one of u guys.. In fact, I have started to look like a “big” foodie now (my waistline is getting bigger, my face is getting rounder ... and ohh.. no. Don’t remind me about my arms). Tell me about the New Year resolutions; my perfect diet plan was gone just the day we stepped into 2009. Ok, let’s forget about it and talk about CNY resolutions… hmm.. Hold on.. they will need to be started after all the Chinese new year feasts (apparently we Chinese have 15 days for the CNY celebration, so let’s talk about the diet after the 15th day).

Ok, I need to blog about our CNY Eve dinner. Steve and I decided to have our dinner at a very pretty restaurant near to our house – Formosa House. They had a lion dance performance during the dinner; Steve had so much fun with that. We both enjoyed the food, I especially loved the almond prawn, it was great!!! yum yum !! Here are some pictures taken on that night.


I will be back to baking and cooking real soon, it just that the weather in Melbourne is crazy at the moment (40 degrees for the whole of last week), I really don’t want to kill myself in the kitchen. But I promise, as soon as I have chance, I will definitely cook and blog.

The Almond prawns look interesting. Hope keeping cool in this extreme weather in Melb. Over in Sydney it's hot and humid, just like in Msia. Kung Hei Fatt Choy!
