This post is long overdue. Have you ever depended on your phone or technology too much? I think I was suppose to post this 2 weeks ago at least, but my pictures refused to be uploaded from my phone, and then came to a point where my household exceeded our monthly quota, sooo, I have to stop using anything internet related for a while, except for my phone, felt deprived. This is bad. Anyway, let the photo sort off do the talking here.
I always miss home food so much, and whenever the opportunity comes ( and ingredient availability) I would think of any types of kuih/ Malaysian delicacies that I can make. This is my version of Sago Kuih, fairly easy and acheivable. The first night, it has a real soft texture, but overnight, I guess the moisture is absorbed? It had more of a chewy texture which ended up great with the dessicated coconut :)
We then had a lot of egg whites left , because we were making currypuff? So we decided to make an impromtu chocolate souffle, and oh boy, it was so bitter! well, it was partly our fault for adding dark chocolate this and that, even the cocoa powder, HAHA.
I couldn't eat it without wincing each time, and I can eat bitter gourd! However, this proves to be the type of bitter which you can't make yourself swallow. Had to eat with ice cream the second time around. hahaha.
I then attempted to make Tako Kuih? I think this is what it's called, managed to get canned water chesnut and spend the afternoon making the casing, which surprisingly was easy! Though, I am no skilled master in kuih, as you can see all of the kuih are of different shapes and sizes. I've always had cravings for this whenever I'm here in Australia, and I've always thought it was difficult and I couldn't find the water chesnut. Turns out, it was just infront of my eyes all along.Not bad for first attempt, but I would like it to have more
resistance. wonder when can I return home and eat this. :)
I think it was 3 weeks ago, Friday, went and watch THOR at Norwood/ North Adelaide ( I always get confused with these 2 places. I have no idea why >_< )
It was good overall, considering that I did not watch the first part.
After the movie, had dinner @NORDBURGER
opened by the runner up of MasterChef Australia 2011, Micheal. Gotta say, it was awesome! :) Had the mushroom burger and double bacon, as well as peanut butter and jelly milkshake.
Overall loved the burger and fries, but still prefer salted caramel milkshake rather PB& J milkshake.

Here's my OOTN, Don't remember where I got the dress from, but I think it is from Time Square.
Had short hair and never tried curling it, because I didnt know how it would turn out. So I took an adventerous streak and tried it out. It looks a little wierd, and I have to tweak it from time to time. 
It was a warm night, and I do not own a lightweight cardigan, so I just took this sheer button up shirt as my cardy. I think it looks nice, what do you think? Very monochrome with a splash of my brown Carlo Rino handbag.
First time in my whole life actually carving a pumpking for halloween. NO, incase you're wondering, I do not really celebrate halloween, neither do the people here. Only in selected suburbs I guess, because I asked my fellow Aussie friends and they say that it's just partying. Say what? Sad.
Overall, it was a good experience, getting a mini pumpkin and carved three ways! Creative wouldn't you say? :)
Learn how to crochet a mini pumpkin for halloween festive. haha, It looks cute, though I could have done a better job. Oh well.
Till next time guys, and sorry for the delay :)
Take care and have a great week
xoxo
