The lost, the blind, the drunk~


It was a great Sat with Kenny's friends visiting us from Alabama, we bought them to House of throwed rolls and Tanger Outlet for shopping. I cooked some simple dishes for dinner and let the drinking begins~ Kenny drunk so much, he lapsed into a coma on the car, we were supposed to bring them to Krispy Kreme, I spent a good 20 mins lost while I tried to wake Kenny up. ARGH~ Anyhow we got there and got lost on our way back AGAIN. Luckily Alex who is conscious but he is abit blind in the darkness haha but he got us home finally! I hope to meet everyone again really soon!

Fishouse madness on Wednesday for ladies


Rosa, Jenn, Moi, Melissa
Not exactly new friends but I am unsure when I started hanging out with these gorgeous and fun ladies~ there is always good food and alot of dancing when they are around~
It was madness at Fish House's deck on Wed's nights where drinks are $2 for ladies only. It was so packed, kinda remind me Zouk on a Wed's Mambo night as well. Although it had been almost 3 yrs since I last stepped into Zouk on a Mambo night, wondering if they are still doing mambo on Wed nights ha~my rambling. Anyhow I never know any place/club could be so crowded in Pensacola on a weekday night.


Meanwhile 2 new boys had arrived, 1 poor fellow lost his luggage, hopefully they can retrieve it soon, I guess he is feeling very insecure without his clothes, his everything basically. He arrived in Pensacola with a yoga mat, first question I asked was "Are you a yoga guru and must do yoga everynight?" There is no other reason anyone would want to carry his yoga mat on board~ Little Singapore community is growing fast!

Gulf Coast Renaissance Fair



It was more like a "rojak" fair than a specifc era, it was a pretty small scale fair, nothing really fancy. Its more like a catch-up with Jenn meeting ;)
I still have time to make some buns for my hubby's lunch for this coming week, save me the effort of cooking the night before.

Healthy banana muffins


Steamed banana muffins
Another healthy recipe from Lily's blog. To my surprise, Kenny ate most of it, he liked the chewy texture as opposed to the ones which require butter (which I like). He said these tasted like "huat kueh".

Fried carrot/daikon cake~

Recently, I have been on a daikon craze, first I tried Mandy's golden crisp daikon cake, I didnt have time to arrange the cakes to get a decent shot as I was rushing for the potluck.
Next, I tried to fry the daikon cake following Lily's method. The only thing I left out is Kan Sui which I cant find in my town and increased my steaming time to 90 mins. Actually I am not sure when to stop the steaming process so I just played by ear and hoped for the best. Anyhow, we loved it, almost tasted like what we had in hawker center (almost is the key word here). My darling hubby preferred the white fried carrot cake, I supposed I will give that a try.

I hate Farewell

Last week, Y had invited us over for Kyla's birthday as well as sorta their farewell party.
I am going to miss them tons! I always pop by her house which is 2 streets away, she is always so happy-go-lucky and so are her 2 adorable daughters.

Yet, another friend gone, oh well, she is only 6 hours drive away, hopefully if Kenny is free, we can pop over to say Hi~

Week of potlucks

First I had potluck with my wonderful Japanese friends, I always enjoyed a tea session with them whenever and wherever. I cooked curry chicken and fried daikon cake while we had fried rice and very yummy pork ball soup (some kind of Japanese stew) from the other ladies.



I also had an international potluck with a new friend from Spain and an American-mexican, both very friendly and awesome ladies to hang out with. We had potato-egg omelette, which I learnt is a common dish in Spain, it is very fluffy! R cooked beef stew which she must had simmer for hours because the beef is sooo tender. I cooked fried bee hoon, I was racking my brain for what to cook actually but I guess the idea is to let them try our daily dishes, if they didnt like it, at least they tried it. ;) I hoped they enjoyed it. Note the handsome fellow in the picture with his dog, he is so adorable and cheeky. Hah.
