We are together for 5 years

Image
On July 19th 2011, it's the day SL and I together for 5 years, time flies. SL said the day that we first together is more important than the day we get married, therefore we always have celebration for this special day. After five years together, our relationship has became stable and mature, so that we didn't expect any gift or flower for any big day, since we always bought things to each other on casual day, that is enough. However, we are for sure will have dinner/lunch at some place special to celebrate this relationship could walk that far. This year, we decided to have dinner at "The View" in Equatorial Hotel, which is French cusion with half buffer basic, there you need to order a main course that comes with soup, buffet appertizer and desert. The environment of restaurant is really romantic, you can see the Penang Bridge from their window and a candle lit between us, there is piano playing behind us. This is the first time that we spent our dinner at such a ro...

当老公觉得热,老婆觉得冷的时候

这两天,我身体不适,所以家里没开冷气。 今晚,老公问我觉得热吗,我说不热,他就走了。过了一个小时之后,老公突然问我,可以开冷气吗?我想他应该是热昏了,最近又有雾,闷热加倍吧,所以我让他开冷气了。 之后,我穿起了冷衣长裤御寒(还真是有点的神经病)。

Hanabishi Kettle

Hanabishi? Did you hear this brand previously? Honestly, I never know it until I bought it. Two months ago, we were planning to move in our new house and of course kettle is one of our shopping list, after compared with price, style and outlook, we decided to buy Hanabishi kettle, which is made in stainless steel and easy to clean, which look kind of quality to us. However, it had leaking problem when we first used it to boil water, there water just leaked out from the bottom of kettle, then we only could request an exchange from Jusco, fortunately we were allowed to change another unit. Well, I thought the trouble has gone, but the kettle just gone malfunction recently, it wasn't more than two months after we purchased it, this time we really dissapointed with Hanabishi brand, the lowest quality product that we ever seen. Finally, we decided to buy some brand that we know, which is Panasonic and we first use it today, hopefully it won't be that fagile as Hanabishi. To me, I am...

lack of mind

Actually, I recently lack of mind on blogging, probably I was too busy or probably I didn't have mood. World of internet, to be frank, I suddenly feel unsecured with it, too much you provide in a public blog, mean more dangerous you get. Well, at least this is what I think, though I am still safe for this moment, just I am feeling kind of lost with my mind to write a public blog. I feel a bit offend to write my life, my thought, my mind and my everything at a place where I don't even know who is reading it, it just like a feeling that your dairy is exposed to somewhere that you don't really know the place, and everyone read it and know your mind. Then one day, you meet someone at the very first time but that person can tell everything about you, just like a supermaster of fortune teller. Don't you think it is scared? Anyways, it wasn't harm if that person is nice one and only like your writing and story. However, what if this is not the case? That is a person that y...

Baking

After moved into our new house for a month, I did three bakings, the first two was failure and today is the third, well it considered ok. The first baking, I wished to make Vanilla Pound Cake, but I got some mismatches on ingredient mixture because measurement between US and Malaysia are different, so that I couldn't bake a perfect cake. Then I didn't want to give up and tried again on Vanilla Pound Cake at my second baking, well I finally got the matching ingredients but my oven seems to be hotter than the one in US, even though I tried to convert Ferenheit to Celsius and tried to set to a closer temperature, I still got my cake burnt on it's outer surface. Well, taste was fine but skin could't be eaten. At the third time, I decided not to bake Vanilla Pound Cake anymore, else SL might need to be genius pig again and eat same taste cake three weeks continuously. Therefore, I made muffin which the one SL liked to eat in US, I modified recipe due to I couldn't find s...

食之。畏也

最近,好多关于食物的负面新闻,从好久以前的中国奶粉,到现在的台湾朔化济食品,之间还参杂着我国的黑心猪肉和德国的大肠杆菌豆芽,还有很多很多大大小小的食品滥制的问题,令人看了心寒,听了胆战。 当年的中国奶粉弄得世界沸沸扬扬,担心家里的小童会受其害。现在,台湾的朔化济也闹得满城风雨,从饮料开始,到了连快熟面也有朔化济的踪影,现在旦逢饮料,我们都避买台湾制造。幸好香港发现的那两种问题快熟面,我们都不常吃(因为他们是面中极品,太贵了),不然现在的我们应该是提心吊胆吧。 再说说说黑心猪肉,怎么有人可以拿死了、病了的猪来喂人呢?这也太可怕了,难怪梁最近改吃鸡肉了,连鱼肉也担心被日本的辐射殃及。还好,我们少吃豆芽,所以大肠杆菌的浪还没有波及到我们。 其实,听到这些有关食品的新闻还真的是让人对那些奸商感到恨之入骨,为了能够赚更多的钱,就无视人命,采用化学药物,或对人类有害的物质来销售,直到东窗事发之时,也不知消费者已使用了对自己有害的食品多少年了,单单关闭公司,还是罚款押监,又怎么赔得上受害者的健康、精神与性命呢? 其实,现在的新新人类,由于必须工作,所以无奈常在外打伙食或在餐馆解决三餐,但是却不知道食物在幕后的准备过程,少油少盐少糖的原则也难以实行,为了填饱肚子而无法追究下肚餐的品质,所以业者应该更讲究他们提供消费人的素质,并非谋取利益。 梁常常对我说,以后该少买那些制成品食物,尽量买raw的,只是难道猪肉豆芽不是raw的吗?长肉济也是用在raw的产品啊,还是会出问题。经管我们现在尽量自己煮晚餐,还是不免会中遭,所以梁和我时常开玩笑的说以后还是自己开农场,自己养家禽家畜、自己种菜种稻,也就不怕被黑心的商人害了。 食之、畏也,病还真的是从口入的,希望那些搞饮食业的人对人命多了份责任心与同情心,免得日后的人必须每人自己开农场,自给自足。

Inflation

Recently, there are a lot of services and item increase their price, electricity bill is higher than before, diesel subsidy cancelled, property prrice even worse and a lot of coming soon. Fisherman bogot because of diesel subsidy case, pork seller stopped selling meat, no subsidy of course will lead to price increment. Well, the most unlucky people are us who only earn fixed salary, inflation becomes worse every year until our salary cannot catch up the rate. Those fishermen and pork sellers can just easily stop working for a week or two, but what can we just a normal worker do? A friend announced that he quit his job and he got increment for more than 50%, this is more than normal 30% rate. I think maybe he is really clever or excellent worker, maybe he is underpaid previously. This makes me to think that whether we all are actually underpaid for many years?
