The Day My Heart Nearly Stopped

This is one of the best e-mails I've received so far in my life.


Pure satisfaction.

Two more to go.

Popiah Making

Every Chinese New Year, Mother J will prepare popiah for us to eat. Since I was young, I was very excited about this delicacy because I would get a taste of being a popiah seller, wrapping popiahs skillfully.

So, today I'm gonna show you my skills at being a popiah seller.

You will need:
a) Popiah skins
b) Jiu Hu Char (a sample recipe - totally different from Mother J's)
c) Lettuce leaves
d) Sweet sauce & chilli sauce
e) Omelet, sliced
f) Cucumber, shredded
g) Fried garlic

"Apply" the sweet sauce and chilli sauce to your liking.

Place the lettuce leaf on top.

It is important the leaf is big enough to contain the other ingredients so that the popiah will not be soggy.

Put a little sliced omelet on top of the lettuce.

Do the same with the shredded cucumber.

Jiu Hu Char right on top!

Do not be too greedy as too much of it will cause the popiah to "tear". Lol.

Fried garlic for the fragrance.

And the skill to wrap, which cannot be taught.

It took me so many times to wrap this perfectly. When I say perfect, it means not "tearing" or breaking apart until all the things inside drop out.

So how? Can become popiah seller? XD

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR PEOPLE!

So far, only received three red packets. Oh well. Will be heading back to Mother J's hometown back in Taiping tomorrow. I've been stuffing myself with lotsa food and I think by the end of the week I'll be so bloated up just like a balloon :(

Anyways, finally got the pictures taken in Camerons from Vic! Awesome pics I would say. How can you not love a DSLR?

Day 1
Left home around 9 plus in the morning for dried curry noodles in town.

Vic's (not so) brand new hairstyle!

Nom nom nom..

A cute lil boy on the next table nomming on toasts.

First stop was Green View Garden.

God knows what was I doing.

Hibiscus.



The girls.

Being Superwomen.

Group shot with Vic's wide lens!

Second stop was the Boh Tea Farm.

Lovely place with lotsa greenery.



Bernard and his cousin, Melanie.

Hoi Wee and Xiow Wei.

All four taken at the same place but all different colours :/

Later, Mike and Casey joined us too.

This is what you call ignorant.

Had light lunch at the Boh Tea Cafe.

We were seated at the suspended edge and Bernard freaked out like a mad person.

Ordered scones, pies, cakes.. I dunno what else. And tea of course. Teh Gunung Chantek. Or Chantik. Whatever la.

To refill it with hot water, need to pay money one. RM0.50 per pax, RM1 for two pax and so on. They earn like mad hor! Us being kiamsap people, needless to say did not bother to refill. So the last half pot of tea was super thick! And how it tasted, should be shown beneath in the pics.

The taste was indescribable. Lol.

Feel so Bollywood! HAHA.

Gangsta.

Went back to our rented house. It was comfy! Except for my room because the lights weren't working. Took a rest and then, steamboat for dinner. No pics in Vic's camera and yet to get the rest from Hoi Wee.

So that's about it for Day 1. Tiring!





I damn sleepy la. Continue in next post. Hehe.
