all the yummies in one book

Summer minestrone, sardines and tomato focaccia, tabbouleh, salad nicoise, spicy calamari stew, baked mediterranean chicken, shepherd's pie, dublin coddle, apple and blackberry crumble, mango creme brulee, carrot cake, onion and rosemary focaccia, chocolate ripple ice cream... and the list goes on and on!

Oh yes! I stumbled upon a wonderful cookbook today at Borders Bookstore in Queensbay Mall.

Presenting to you, the ultimate cookbook that I have been searching for!

400 budget recipes in simple steps!
1800 lovely full-colored illustrative photographs!
100+ clever cooking tips and hints!
... and each recipe comes with a calorie count at the footer of every single page!!

But what's best about this fantastic book is...

.. it was only RM24.90! I'm so grateful I got hold of the last copy left on the bargain tabletop - in good condition with all the pages intact ... :)

I just can't wait to try out these recipes. Each page I turn over makes me smile in delight...
my girlfriends and I are gonna cook a storm soon..

Oh, this is just lovely ^-^

hyperfurball

This is Kiki - the hyperfurball.

My aunt was away in KL for the weekend and she dropped her furry bundle under my mom's care. Kiki is a poodle puppy and she is only 3 months old. But goodness me, she is the most restless puppy I have ever come across. Every single waking hours she would whine for attention - jumping, dashing and chasing me from one corner of the house to the next. I just can't keep up at all. Worse still - she has not yet graduated from the potty-trained school...

So you imagine the trauma my mom and I have to face everyday T_T

This is sure a super tiring week for me... yes.. I am SO tired these days.

It's like having a doting baby in the house that never seems to rest at all. But I can't help but stop in my tracks, sit down and play with this fella... how can one resist the wagging bunny-like cotton tail?

What a cute and irritating furball. Am gonna think twice before I get my own dog next time...
