Feeding Time
How was your Tuesday? Mine was pretty good. My parents are staying with me this week to keep me company (the husb is still in Palembang – Indonesia). Mum and I went for a run/walk (4 km) this morning. She brisk walked while I did some interval running — I walked with her during my resting period. Tomorrow I’m strength training (ala ChaLean Extreme) at home and she might probably do the same.
Everyday Mikey will ‘meow’ for food and I like to tease him by just feeding him with one pellet at a time. See video.
I leave you with some random pics taken with my new Android phone — Samsung Galaxy S2 (which I’m loving). Downloaded a camera app this afternoon and tested some of the photo effects.
– At home watching TV –
– Bee Hoon –
– Mum reading recipe books –
– Lunch which consisted of bee hoon (same as above pic) and topped with a microwaved egg –
Off to sleep now. Goodnight!

I was at the airport this afternoon to see the husb off to Palembang (Indonesia). He has already reached their game village and I just video chatted with him via Tango. *** I had overripe bananas on hand, hence decided to use them this morning. This is a super easy and naturally sweet banana bread. [...]

I’m at home on this Thursday because the door people are here. They are replacing our doors — that of our bedroom and the gym room as the knob is spoiled. Do you know I was locked in my own bedroom a few days ago (!!). Luckily the husb was at home. He had to [...]

On Sunday I baked a banana pumpkin bread (recipe at the bottom of this post). It looks like the recently baked GF chocolate chip pumpkin bread, doesn’t it? –Banana pumpkin bread– Texture-wise, it is less dense than the GF chocolate chip pumpkin bread. I think it is because of the type of GF flour used [...]
