The second day of CNY, while some were cooking vegetarian or nasi lemak or laksa.. i had chinese spam..!! woohoo..!!! yup.. i had wanted the normal kinda luncheon meat.. because my brat loves it too.. but grocery woman decided to give me the spicy ones instead. So how leh.. no choice lor.. just eat lor. But very spicy..!! and very the oily..!!

While everyone is eating shark’s fin soup, roasted duck, mushroom and abalone.. bak kwa and pineapple tarts.. what did I .. have in “ulu” town in Canada..?? Not much to be exact.. just a few bowls of “lien aw” soup. Lotus root soup.. that i had cooked in the slow cooker the nite before CNY. Poor thing hor..?? i long to go home..and eat char kway teow.

See what i found in our local Zellers..!! Dumpling press..!! woohoo..!! looks like someone is gonna go nuts over dumplings real soon.. !! can’t wait to experiment it.  One can make your own dumpling without this of course.. but if you wanna make pretty dumplings.. i think this can help.

The little pleasures of life.. in having mee pok… in a faraway land .. with no authentic chinese food. Missing home.. and blessing the dear heart of a dear friend.. who went to the city to get me 5 packets of meepok. Now i can eat until “siow” .. muahahhaha!!
