Mom left for New York on friday (her 1st time to the states, so excited for her!) and i now hold the sovereign power of our kitchen (wahahaha *evil laughter*). That means no one askin how/when/wat i'm doing in the kitchen, no one kaypoh-ing/giving uncalled-for-comments, no one naggin abt the mess, cleanin up, wiping down.. "pls rinse up all the table clothes, soak 'em in detergent overnite, wipe oven inside out, put back all the baking tools!! you see, you stained the bottom on the pot again!!"... and all that jazz =p When you are totally engrossed in your bake/cooking in the hot & humid (aka you the sweat-ing block of fats) kitchen (sometimes i pull the fan in but they blow the flour & newspaper away!), you really, i mean, you REALLY REALLY wanna be left alone and not wish to have to listen to anyone who likes to give you any instructions, at all. I dun mind my folks being around while i bake/cook but i'm sometimes quite sick of their repetitive instructions. I am not young anymore. I KNOW wat to do!! Volcanic moments like these are times when i wish i can buy my own 3-room HDB flat soon!!! Oii, PAP, you listening to me???
Anyway, mom's gonna be away for 2 whole weeks *yippee* and i'm gonna conquer the kitchen with O'mighty new rights! I've already baked 3 items over the weekend and cooked Nyonya Pork Curry (pic above, will share the super-easy recipe below) + the bonus PH (Vesak Day) we had yesterday, i baked another Napolean Pastry (failed but i learnt a great deal fr it, will tok abt it on a seperate entry) & cooked me-self some Stewed Pork wif Radish (again, will share the recipe below). |
