I scream for ice cream!

My appetite had gone wild for the past week.. I was practically hungry all around the clock..

I knew that it was not normal when I actually finished half of a large pizza after telling Zorro that the maximum slices that I can eat in one go was just 2! And that night I had 4 huge slices! You would think that after having that 4 slices I would be full... However, my tummy started to grumble again by 12 a.m. Hence, at 2 a.m. I just had to go and have a roti canai with hot delicious dhal... Heaven...

Yesterday (Saturday), I woke up with a craving for nasi lemak.. I was already picturing the Village Park's hot nasi lemak. However, as I was about to go out, Mom asked me to teman her for breakfast at restaurant near by.. Hampa laa kejap.. So, I didn't get to eat the nasi lemak. Instead I got myself a Johor style lontong that was equally delicious.

Not satisfied with how things had turned, I told mom that I was gonna prepare lunch for the day. Since mom's friend and her 2 nieces came over, I decided to cook something nice, plus I was craving for Chicken Rice since last week. A quick dash to the market to get the supplies, I was ready to get busy by 12 p.m.

It was actually my second time preparing the chicken rice dish, the first being 8 or was it 9 years ago.. Hence, I was gambling my luck, cooking for 2 chefs that came to visit. Imagine my nervousness while boiling the chicken broth, frying the chickens and preparing the hot chili sauce...

My mom always said that when you cook with a sincere intention, the end result will turn out well... And Alhamdulillah the dishes turned out great... And to my surprise, both chefs were enjoying the meal. One of the 2 chefs, who is the most critical person that I have ever met, kept complimenting on my cooking! Wuhoo.. dapat approval chef tuh.. (Perasan mode: ON).. Tak percaya? Check out the photos below...








Right after lunch, I suddenly had a craving for pancakes. I told you my appetite had gone wild. However, after such heavy lunch, I just can't imagine myself pigging into a plate of pancakes. Hence, I woke up early this morning (Sunday) and prepared a batch of pancakes for everyone. Naaah.. I didn't make it from scratch. I remembered that my sister bought the ready-made pancake bater from Tesco few weeks before, so it was just a matter of mixing the pre-mixed four with water and milk. As easy as ABC! hehehe... The hot pancakes with syrup and butter really hits the spot...!




By dinner time, my tummy suddenly said that it wants to eat another set of home cooked meal. I guess it was tired of all the take-out food that we usually order every day (no maids.. so a wee bit lazy to cook everyday). Hence, I set out to the kitchen to prepare dinner. After half and hour in the kitchen, I managed to dish up some ayam masak kicap 'ala Binx, with lots of potatos and onions and cut chilies, a burnt ikan masin, sambal belacan and leftover salad from the chicken rice dish. OK laa kan? Yumm-my.. :)

It has been an hour since dinner and my tummy tells me that it wants some ice cream..! I am already drained out from all the cooking and washing.. Can someone get me some ice cream please.. I'll be eternally grateful...
