juicehoney,

Can share ur butter bun recipe with me? I dun hav breadmaker, that's why i asked if you made ur buns using d machine. Happy when u say u dun hav one :) Means i also can make ur yummy buns. I seldom bake cakes/breads, so a bit waste of $ to get breadmaker.... Ya ya, last time i made crunchy crust bread, d bread also become a bit hard next day.... not soft n fluffy like those from bakery... Ur rice with salmon looks yummy... very easy to make too...i love salmon... preferably raw... hehe...

Zunzhine, really paiseh to tell you how i made d egg wraps... well, i dun hav pan big enough to make d egg, so i ended up using the wok..... and i hav to lift d wok, n kept turning the wok at an angle so-so slowly, so to make a big egg wrap for the rice rolls. Haha. I really like experimenting in d kitchen, but nearing PS and wedding... lots of places need to use $, so wont be buying new kitchen utensils at d moment... just use whatever i can find in my kitchen la :P

Beautifulgown, we sama-sama jiayou on diet la.... if eat healthier, sure will lose weight... i hope to help FH lose 2-3kg before our PS end of nxt mth... As for d rice rolls, actually we dun eat white rice... we r used to brown rice now, only standby white rice for porridge... but ngam-ngam we ran out of brown rice... so i use the plain white rice and combine with grated carrots... 1st time try, but both me+fh also dun really facny d taste of raw carrots... so next time thinking to substitute with mashed salted duck egg yolk.. bet it wud be whole lot yummier...

marryhim, simple dishes can be equally as yummy~!! Actually most nights, i will only cook soup, a vege/tofu/egg dish, and steam a fish... quick n easy. But sumtimes when i'm feeling creative... then will try sumthing new loh...

Bunnyangel,

a great chef will make wonderful dishes even when not enough utensils... thus, YOU FIT INTO A GOOD CHEF CATEGORY!!! Bravo :)so no need to paiseh ler :)

(actually my mum also make egg skin that way.... so I also follow the same, but my egg skin always not consistent in thickness, and very often will bocor one. haha)

BG,

think of PS then sure very motivated :) I am sure you'll look lovely :)

marryhim,

yep, simple dishes is great too. I have a feeling you simple dishes should be those lip smacking, saliva drooling and appetite rising sort of dishes! (actually i also very envious of the others who always make lovely dishes- and i enjoy looking at it it!) it's so fun hoh? :)

aiyoh. so late already and I hungry la, i better go sleep and stop browsing this culinary site, it's too torturing to view all these great dishes when I am hungry and its late at night. Haha

bunnyangel & zz,

Ya ya .. I start my diet soon after I confirmed the PS with Edwin & Stephen.

My FH has big tummy which is not my control anymore, no matter how control his diet, the lovely tummy is still there :P

The rice roll really look good, if you fried the ingredients first it may taste better? Now it reminds me about the sushi, it just like the sushi style right?

If you have second attempt, don't forget to share with us. :)

zunzhine, normally when i see you all making nice dishes, it inspires me to be creative too. But nowadays try to make healthier food loh... will normally only bake if going for frens/family bdays parties or special occasions...

jandann, ur pasta dish is simple and nice! I call pasta d confort food... very satisfying and comforting everytime i eat them.

beautifulgown, my fh's tummy is also very big la... almost half watermelon... so desperately need to help him lose it... not only for PS, but mainly for his health loh... so now everyday brown rice, low fat milk, steam dishes, no supper, no sugar, less salt n avoid oil...

juicehoney, that's very nice of you, but i dun even have a mixer oh.... let me buy one soon.. and then i'll request the butter bun recipe from you ok? I cant read chinese oh....i really love ur butter bun... really look like those from bakery.... p/s: after seeing ur butter bun, today i had it... cannot control myself.... haha...

BG,

yes, me too trying hard. my friend told me can eat fruits, but certain ones are no-no, eg durians (my FAV!!!!), mango, banana, nangka and even papaya :(

apparently, in terms of apple, red ones are better than the green apples from the point of vitamins... again a friend told me.
