3 MORE DAYS ONLY TO BOOK FREE SEATS OFFERED BY AIR ASIA BUT I HAVE NOT MADE UP MY MIND ON WHERE TO GO

can you see what I see here? Free flight seats to all over Malaysia and some oversea destination too. Wish I can have a good holiday with family and friends for a break after Chinese New Year but the date line of booking is going to end very fast.. Only three more days only from now. There is not much time to think of which destination to go yet.

All I can say now is I will just let the offer end just like dat. For those who need to go anywhere by flight I think Kota Kinabalu is a good place to go right now because they are using air bus to fly. Isn't that nice? Just pay for the airport tax alone and can fly in an airbus there.

Was dreaming of climbing the Mount Kinabalu but I don't think I have much of the strength to go all the way up there. I will surely be out of breath before I even reach even half of the destination. Another thing I like about going to Kota Kinabalu is because of it's food They have quite many choices of good nice food.

My friends from Sabah recommended me some of the places to eat if I go there. One of them is Kadazan Food at Hinompuka Cafe. It is open from 8am to 4pm daily and close on Sundays.
Other than that it is easy to find a variety of food at Warisan Square and from the shops nearby. KK wait for me I want to visit you again.

SAPPHIRE BLU SCRATCHING HEAD WHAT TO COOK FOR DINNER

I have been sitting here reading blogs and checking emails for quite many hours since just now and this is the first time ever I am doing this. Normally after a while facing the computer screen I would just turn offline and play with my Sims 2 simulation game.

As I was checking my mails just now, at the same time I was thinking of what to cook for dinner. Did not cook for lunch just now and I was thinking if I am not cooking for dinner then the answer will have to be EAT OUT of which I think it will be a NO for me today. I might as well just cook something simple. I was thinking what am I suppose to do with the four chicken drumsticks that I bought from Boulevard the other evening. Will I just fry young ginger chicken soya sauce? Or maybe just Chicken stew with mushroom?

I guess I will just have to go to the kitchen and see what mood I have. In order to cook a good meal we must have a clear mind or else we will start putting the wrong ingredients in the wok and then the taste will turn otherwise. In conclusion the dish will have to turn over night dish due to no one eating it and after forgetting to heat up that dish, you will know where it will end up. Will go to the kitchen now and see what I have in mind to cook. Be right back here again to upload the dish for tonight.

This is what I ended up cooking for dinner

Sapphire Blu at work

step number 1 cut all the ingredients nicely

step number two heat up the wok with oil and put in part of the ingredients

step number three add in the chicken that has been cut into pieces

step number 4 add in the rest of the blended ingredients

step number 5 simmer the chicken until cooked and add in soya sauce, salt and sugar to taste

step number 6 it is now ready to be served on the plate

My menu for today's dinner is Rendang Chicken taken from Sapphire Blu's recipe.
