    Amazing things about what people can do to and for Pets in the name of LOve.

    p/s: i am not trying to sell it just wanna to show where I got it from.

    The Cat washroom!! Actually this is a splendid idea. I love it!!



    But I will never put it right next to my bed no matter how nice it looks as a side table.
    I wonder who is the decorator? I would put the cat's stuff like: cat's health cert, cat's cat collar, cat's vitamins etc.


    This is also very cute. It can be part of the furniture without looking weird or stand out in the room. Or else people one look can see...eh.......cat toilet. Maybe can transform one of the old cabinets into this cat toilet.
    Contemporary cat toilet. When cats dress up for different occasions. ( by naughty humans of course.)

    Poor kitty cats.

    Beautiful Sally with blond hair.

    Nice right? I love it too.

    Haha... Just look at the knot at the back. The station owner must have dress the dog in a size S shirt to make it look part of the team.


    United Bamboo 2010 calender featuring a whole series of ready to wear clothing...I still haven't figure out it is for human or cats??


    Next time I post some pics of my own cats too.

    Tiffany's Experimental Kitchen: Pan fried Potato cake.

    One lazy afternoon as I was reading through some books I came across this recipe.

    Pan fried Potato and pumpkin cake. It is actually not the traditional cake, cake but more like some snacks. Wish we can all mix all the languages up as different language describe its own culture and background the best. I am not sure what culture this dish come from but I got it from Japanese recipe book.

    Ingredients: potato, pumpkin, soy sauce, oil, corn starch. That's all. ^^~

    First, chop the potato and pumpkin into cubes of around 4 cm thick.
    Potato cook in a pot with water. Pumpkin use steam. When a chop stick can go through means done.

    When potato is done pour out the water and just hold the pot by its 2 ears and heat it over the stove. While doing so shake the pot and let the potatoes roll around a bit to evaporate off some of the moist.

    Now mash up the potato and pumpkins. As i do not have the proper tools I just use my wooden spoon to mash it in the pot.

    Add around 1: 4 ,corn starch : potato or pumpkin. ( if got pumpkin it will be sweeter but as my fridge only got potato I use it only.)

    Stir stir mix mix
    Now wash your hand , dry it and get ready to roll and mold. ^^~ it is fun and I made some cute shapes too. I think round round is still the cutest.

    Put a bit more oil to pan fried them.

    I love the ring shape most. Look like mini doughnuts. And it is very easy to use chopstick to pick it up and turn around. When the sides are a bit more transparent and swell up means it is almost done.
    See there are bigger now right?

    Put them on paper to get rib of excess oil.

    According to recipe you can dip you cake inside vinegar soy sauce Or...

    You can pour the vinegar soy sauce on top. But after tasting I think best pour soy sauce inside the pot while frying.
    Haha
    smells good, it is chewy when you bite into it. Quite nice too. I am not sure everyone likes this type of stuff or not. But I am the type of person who like pure plain fresh stuff.

    Tiffany's Experimental Kitchen: Stir fried Capsicum Beef

    Tiffany's Experimental Kitchen is reopened again. ^^~~ Haha... Have more free time on hand and the leisure to cook. Always feel very sick of the outside as they are always too oily, salty and some time maybe is the place, it always look very dirty. The night market stall looks even cleaner than the coffee shops around. Ok enough of that, today I tried capsicum beef. This is some thing I think up and modified. As I just anyhow cook according to my memory of how this dish is usually cooked.

    First, slice some beef around 300g-500g.
    Marinate it with: Diced garlic, soy sauce, salt, sugar, a bit of red wine. Then I put in the fridge in a plastic container. After that I go on to prepare other ingredients. Today i am cooking 2 dishes. Just some simple home cook meal.

    Second: wash and slice some capsicum. I only have green, if you have red and yellow it will look and taste even better. Oh ya, next time I am going to spend a bit more money and buy the genetically modified new capsicum. IT is as sweet as fruits, like apple like that. I tried that before in Taiwan and I think I saw some the other day in the super market.

    Start Cooking: Heat up some oil, throw in the beef without the sauce. Stir fry till just cook. Take out.
    Add a bit more oil, stir fried the capsicum till almost done. Add the beef back in. Now pour the sauce you have marinated the beef just now. Taste the dish, if not enough add a bit more soy sauce, salt and sugar to taste.

    Serve.
    Second dish is the common stir fry cabbage. I simply just love stir fried cabbage. Usually I always use the round , bright green cabbage. I hate hate hate the flat elongated cabbage, it is tasteless compare to the round ones.


    Heat oil, add garlic. Fry till fragrant and a bit light brown over medium heat.

    Throw in chopped cabbage and carrot, stir fry till soft and nice smell come out. Usually you can smell whether the food is cook or not. Then add Vegetarian oyster flavoured sauce. ( choose vegetarian, it taste the same anyway and it is not only animal-friendly, it is also environmental-friendly and disease free. Seafood sometimes can pass some water borne diseases.)

    My Dinner. Yummy. ~~~ Only when I am free. Wish I have a cook .
    Sob......

    First Time making SUSHI >_< !!!

    I have always love to eat sushi so....the other weekend I give my hand at sushi making for the very first time. I had seen my aunts and God mother making it before but I never make it myself. My duty is to eat eat eat and say :" Hao Chi." Hahaha...

    So I went to Isetan that day and got the sushi starter pack, some Japanese rice ( which is round and not elongated like South East Asian rice. Btw Malaysian rice is very rare too, as always import from Thailand. So you can only find it in Kampung. )

    I just cook according to instructions and other information I have gotten from the internet. Sorry....I am just lazy to type out those steps. Just show show here how it was made. The most important thing for sushi is actually : The RICE and seaweed. That's all. Cook the rice well everything is great.

    Soak the rice for 30mins to 1 hour before you cook it. After cooking that it out and add the Japanese vinegar. And try cooling it off by doing cutting motions over the rice. Do not mix and stir the rice. If possible stand a fan beside the rice to speed up the cooling process.

    p/s: I wonder what is Kat kat thinking. Cats are always such busybodies.


    Tea Time. I love these hard french bakeries.

    Eggs fried, crab stick cooked, store bought Unagi ( hehehe....), Japanese cucumber ( This is super sweet and very different from SEA cucumber. ), washabi, Jap soy sauce. Everything else and tools are all the starter pack. Very easy to make.

    Leave 2 cm above your seaweed. Roll roll, press, roll.


    Cut cut.. Lala... here we have. Cute right???

    MY first plate of Sushi. IT taste great!!! However my rolling skill is skill not good...sigh.. But never mind.
    Recently , finally get to enjoy a bit of holiday. I really miss and treasure these days where I can really lie around and roll around on bed and be worry-free, stress-free......... Nice weather ........feels so good and nice and sleepy....ZzzZZZZZzzzzzzzzz......

    Tasty Korean BBQ. Wow...I love it.

    Ronnie the bunny rabbit:" Hello guys. Did u know where am I now?" Tee Hee..


    Some where there are lots of wooden furniture and wooden window with nice sitting mats.

    Red walls with colourful pictures.

    Me and the green tea.


    Ok... It is really hard to maintain a skinny figure when you are a pig just like me who is not so lucky to have super high metabolism that can burn off whatever thing you eat. Where did I bring my bunny rabbit this time?
    WCute Bunny and me. ^^~ He is so cute right???

    Delicious, crispy, appetizing appetizer. I just love Korean food ^^. Full of vegetables! All of them are great and fresh. Maybe it is kind of mild and tasteless to some people but I find the real fresh sweet taste of vegetable is delicious. And most importantly it is very healthy.

    Bunny waiting beside the BBQ pit. The fragrant smell of BBQ chicken is rising slowly and surrounding us as it cooks.
    Bunny rabbit Ronnie:" Food Food!! Give me food!!"
    Tiffany:" Eh...I thought you are suppose to be vegetarian and eat carrot and carrot only??"
    Ronnie:" Who say so? XXX"

    note: XXX is what ever sound rabbit makes of which I think rabbits can't meow like cats do. They don't have vocal cords is it or what? Mmmm........maybe I should check that out.

    What I wore that day: Shirt: MNG. Pants: X Brand from Hong Kong. Shoes: Hush Puppy. Shawl: X Brand from stall at the side. Bag: SBPRC.
