going thru another mood swing

it's either PMS or premature menopause

maybe i'm experiencing a combination of both hur hur

shant drag everyone down with me, shall tok bt happier things :D

Xmas potluck went well, my homemade carbonara was well-received.

frying the bacon

bacons loosely defined are pathetic bits of salted pork attached to a generous layer of fats so u can imagine my horror when i saw it floatin in a sea of oil

paper napkins come to e rescue

anyway i realized later it was a bad move

e paper napkin removed the salt as well and e bacon turned out a tad bland :P

wat's cream sauce without cream?!?!

i had a difficult time looking for e cream

angmos use cream

we SEAsians use coconut milk =..=

i told e supermarket auntie i need full cream

she got me whipped cream

...

i said no i need it for cooking

she replied yeah they're on promotion



..................




obviously we're on different wavelength so i had to look for it myself

making the cream sauce

i tot it's pretty gross

i'm suppose to add uncooked egg to e sauce, mixing it with e parmesan cheese, cream and butter

yeahhh UNCOOKED, RAW egg

apparently while tossing e pasta with e sauce, heat frm e pasta will cook e egg and thicken the cream sauce
