Honey and Tea..

To me, it's a perfect combination.

Thanks so much for the tea, Anh... =)

It's strange but that's exactly what I would get for myself. =) Now to get a pretty teapot so I can brew tea in. It's really yummy btw..

Halo - The Pussycat Dolls



Lyrics:

I can make love feel just like heaven (oh)
I can be a little devil in bed and (oh)
Even clean and cook your breakfast
But I'm not perfect, I

I can take off when need your time (oh)
I can cheer lead for you from the sideline (oh)
Whisper in your ear so divine
But I'm not perfect, I

Hope you can forgive me baby
For all of the mistakes I've made (ah)
Be patient with me, baby
I'm just tryin' to make my way (oh)
I'm not a superhero
Sorry I couldn't save the day (ah)
Believe me when I say

That I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I couldn't be your
Angel, Angel, Angel, Angel
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I didn't stroke your
Ego, Ego, Ego, Oh No
I was with him but I guess I wasn't able
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your halo
Halo, Halo

I know how to put your mind at ease and (oh)
I can dress you for all four seasons (oh)
Surprise you for no reason
But I'm not perfect, no

I'm on my knees and pray for our love (oh)
Promise not to let anything come between us (oh)
Could you let us fall apart all because
I'm not perfect, I

Hope you can forgive me baby
For all of the mistakes I've made (ah)
Be patient with me, baby
I'm just tryin' to make my way (oh)
I'm not a superhero
Sorry I couldn't save the day (ah)
Believe me when I say

That I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I couldn't be your
Angel, Angel, Angel, Angel
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I didn't stroke your
Ego, Ego, Ego, Oh No
I was with him but I guess I wasn't able
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your halo
Halo, Halo

Now it's like you never knew my heart
I swear sometimes you are
So hard on me cause I'm not everything
That you want me to be
I'm so sorry
I didn't want you to see me this way
I'm so sorry
I didn't mean to fall from grace
I didn't mean to fall from grace

I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I couldn't be your
Angel, Angel, Angel, Angel
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your
Halo, Halo, Halo, Halo
Sorry I didn't stroke your
Ego, Ego, Ego, Oh No
I was with him but I guess I wasn't able
I'm sorry I couldn't wear your halo
Halo, Halo

Friday Cookout..

I was bored and it has been a while since I had time all to myself with no classes in the evening. So I did what I love best and that was to cook!

I made the Dutch Winter Stew from Dutch Girl Cooking, with a few variations made. We don't have celeriac here in Singapore, I think I used turmeric powder instead of curry powder and also I used normal paprika instead of the sweet one. The whole thing took about 2 hours to make from scratch and it was really good. I think I will add half curry and half turmeric powder the next time I make thing. Also, rubbing the meat with coarse mustard gives it a whole new depth to the taste.

Here are some pics I took.


Ingredients used.
Leek
Potatoes
Carrots
Mushrooms
Garlic
Onions
Thyme (I used dry cos there weren't any fresh ones available)
Paprika
Turmeric powder
Bay Leaf
Beef shin
Salt and pepper


The meat, cut into cubes and marinated with salt, pepper and coarse mustard.


Melting some butter in olive oil, so the butter doesn't burn.


Browning the meat.


Onions added.


Carrots goes in next.


Add in some beer, room temperature.


Then some beef stock (I used chicken cause I realised I did not have any beef stock cubes at home).

Simmer at a very low heat for about an hour. Add potatoes and leeks and cook for another 30 mins you have yourself a yummy hearty stew... =)

Sorry I forgot to take picture of the end product, was just too hungry for that. Plus I had a movie date with someone. =P

Thats about it I guess.. Dun really know what to say but enjoy your Sunday everyone!

I love you..

The easiest and the hardest 3 little words to say to someone.

I've never in my life heard someone say that with so much feelings, honesty and sincerity.

And I believe you without a doubt....

For I feel that way too..

I love you. <3

Sometimes...

Sorry for lack of updates.. Been super busy with classes, work and assignments..

A friend just broke up with his gf of 2 months. Funny thing is sometimes, you think you know someone, until they do something and then you realise that you never truly knew them. I think it's best they broke up anyways, the girl is so not worth it, from all the things I've heard.

Too bad for me, it took me a year and a half before I realised it. But oh well.. Water under the bridge, life is good for me now. I have friends, family, a life and even a special someone who cares for me, and genuinely wants to be there for me.

So yes, I am happy.
