hey purplesky I think you are already doing a great job by trying! well, you can cook those one dish wonder which is easy to prepare and very little cleaning up. There is the baking club in the t-blog, check out the honey-mustard chicken which is very easy to prepare and minimal fuss! Also can cook pasta either white sauce or tomato sauce base. What I do for storage is after I buy the meat for example, I will divide it onto smaller portions in ziploc bags then freeze those I'm not using yet. For me, I work so i only cook some nights on weekdays so food storage is very important for me, else I will be throwing out a lot of food which is a waste Actually the fact that your hubby eats is already very good lor... Sorry JandG, riding on your t-blog! We recently stocked up some salmon belly and smoked salmon from fassler. Nice place for fresh and yummy salmon!

Hahaha... yes!!! Curtains for privacy!!! and i think curtains add a soft touch to the house. Warm and cosy which I like. But seriously, can't see much.. only the ceiling and the lights and only if you are at the windows!

Oh.. I didn't know about BD... Paiseh!!! TUAbaby can vouch for me that i'm blur blur! cloth from Spotlight during their sale... my current roman blind from ikea... cheap cheap one cos i wanted to use their mechanism and sew on new cloth on them...

haha.. and the three men immediately defended my prev post! Anyway, SuperSimon27, I'm so impressed with your DIY blinds!!! We bought cloth for my DIY roman blinds but haven't got round to it!!! Wonder when it will be done... else it will be $$$ wasted!

hahaha.. the t-blog became a men's chatroom?!?!?!

thank you thank you.. i can't think of designs only know how to copy... maybe i'll will make a good pirate! but the icing was so much fun.

Baked some carrot cupcakes for a friend's birthday last night. 1st time doing the icing which was a bit messy but very fun. Got a tip from one of the forumer's posting here and watch youtube on how icing is done! My first cupcake attempt

WOW... YUMMY YUMMY.. make me so so hungry!!!!! oh... i also need tips on the crust.. so for now i just use the my chicken pie filling with bread or biscuit! cos i just love the creamy white sauce!

We got our cellini set from Rose at Park Mall. She's very patient! It took us many visits before we finally bought our set from her and she was not at all pushy despite we went there so many times just to browse the furniture. My husband (tuababy) even has her hp number in case we need any information or help which we did and she never failed to help us in ways she can.

can't wait to try them out.. but have to finish my brownies 1st! Brought them to work to share the calories around.. This weekend feel like trying chocolate cheesecake from Joyofbaking!

Hi JandG Love your island. We wanted to build one that extends to the dining area but gave up the idea due to appliance placement contraints. Looking forward to see the completed cute island!

Looks really good! can see the ice-cream melting over the brownie! Heavenly! is this the recipe that you gave me for fudgy brownies?

Yup, agree with Ivy. The wavy effect can be reduced significantly if you use thicker laminates. FOMICA has the 2mm ones which are good in my opinion. we use them for our kitchen... The issue i have with glossy cabinets is that it leaves a lot of fingerprints on it!

orh... i try to believe you ah.. we only go to the next block (25th floor) and we saw the roof of your block.... that's how advanturous we are only! View is good from there and super windy.. For us... windy only along the corridor like i mentioned in SK forum.. hopefully the wind will change direction soon and come from the other side!

thot u kopi shop... only like kaya and toast!

into the sauce and marinate chicken in it (overnite)! veg.. followed your recipe...and i sprinkle olive oil when halfway thru baking to prevent it from drying up.. before serving it up.. just mixed the veg with the sauce from the chicken... I'm hungry already!!!

Wah.. so happening!!! ;)

hehe.. we looked over to see if you were in(wanted to pass u the brownies) and we saw your guys seated in a position that tua ah say.. must be swimming! anywayz, your brownie share is still in my fridge.. u can self collect later tonight if you like.. 9++ sms tua ah and see how lah..

hihi thanks for your honey mustard recipe... it was a winner man! Everyone loved it including me! Normally after I cook up a meal for people.. i don't eat much.. but this one.. really GOOD! used the honey mustard sauce as u suggested plus add some basil and paprika... yup, asparagus and bacon! we needed some fats for extra padding mah... heheh. I also have brownies in my fridge! haha... okie, will try the happy home baker one!

Hey Elane, sun nite i baked brownies.. wanna to ask you to come self collect one.. but we realised that it was already 10++ so we didn't.. too bad can't use pulley system to send over.. else very convinient!

Cos the next house..we may be too old to paint on our own liao.. Painting is fun mah... and very fulfilling.. I think my contractor see me also faintz.. never met anyone one who paints like me.. so fussy one!

Hi baking fans I'm quite new here. Posted before when I still didn't have my oven. Finally got to try my oven!!! These are just some of the stuff I did. Honey Mustard Chicken - Recipe inspired by Angel81 with some minor modifications. Really yummy recipe there, have to try it if you can. THe veg tasted super good with all the chicken juice in it! Pineapple Tarts - Thought I would practise making before CNY 2010. Look like Tau Sa Piah! Chocolate Brownie - Recipe from joyofbaking. Not too bad but I prefer the fudgy kind.

Wowowow!!! I see your TV console... DROOL DROOL!!!! Tua eh told me this morning and I told myself I got to take a look since he was raving about it! Newnyew... at least after all teh hiccups it is DONE and it's really chio! Worth the wait!

Saw your photos with tuababy.. loved the feature wall which conceals the entrance to the kitchen.. Hmmm.. I also wish for a BIGGER and more spacious WIW... kinda regretted that we didn't use 2 rooms to become 1!

Hmmm... haha.. i'm sure your kopi shop will be busier at the new location.. Better hire some assistant lah. Well... you can help wifey mah.. she sweep, you mop lah!
