This has been in my diet recently… and that’s because of my surgery, i can’t eat alot of solid food.. so i had no choice but to eat jello.  The man make this for me.. because they are of less sugar.  I’ve never eaten so much jello in my entire life.

Instead of buying the ready made ones.. the man got some he made from scratch.. so it wouldn’t be that sweet .. since i’m diabetic.  Very thoughtful of the man.. i know i should count my blessings.

The man and the kid loves chocolate.. and if you know them you will know that we go thru’ alot of chocolate every month.

I had made herbal chicken a few weeks ago.. but without the condiments.. so this time.. i got a little bit more adventurous.. and put in some chinese mushrooms, wolfberries and wood fungus. Very easy to prepare.. the pre-mix were sent to me by a good blogger friend.. Barbara from Malaysia. Thank you .. Barb.. yer awesome..!!

A closer look at the marinated chicken with all the goodies.

Here the man was tying up everything.. because he helped me to cook since I just got out of surgery about a week ago.

All wrapped up.. and ready to wrap another layer of silver foil before steaming.

There we go.. packed up tightly .. and ready to go into a steam. I used a big pot.. and then sit the wrapped chicken onto a plate underneath a bowl.

Ta-da..!! the steamed chicken.. with herbs.. mushrooms, wood fungus.. and wolfberries. Of course, Barbara sent more than just this .. so look out for more home cooked meals.. from home. Thanks again.. Barbara… they tasted awesome. But i didn’t get to finish the chicken this time.. because i had an emergency.. and was hospitalized for the next 5 days.

For someone who loves food as much as I do, I know that if i do go home to Asia for a visit.. i’m gonna stuff myself silly.  I told the man.. i didn’t really care if i put on loads of weight.. while i am on vacation home.. because i would just take some diet pill if necessary.  But no one is gonna stop me from eating all the food .. that i’ve been missing for so long.
