Aglio Olio

Made this today for dinner and I must say that it taste good! In future can simply satisfy my craving at home =)

Ingredients:

• 1. Garlic
• 2. Red Onion (i added this coz not enough garlic)
• 3. Chilli Padi
• 4. Olive Oil
• 5. Salt, Pepper
• 6. Spaghetti

Method:

1. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions in a pot of boiling water (with salt and oil added). Drain when cooked.
   
2. Slice up the garlic, red onion and chilli padi (i removed the seeds)
3. Heat up a generous amount of olive oil (i used extra virgin olive oil since that's the only one i have at home), turn down the fire to low and add in the garlic slices
4. When the garlic slices are turning slightly golden brown, add in the red onion (this browns really fast)
5. Stir around till the red onion and garlic slices are golden brown, add in chilli padi and ham
   
6. Stir for approx 10 seconds and add in the spaghetti
7. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve!
   

Rock buns long time no see!

I distinctly remember this item from my home econs class back in sec 1 (or 2?) and I really loved it back then. Did a search thru google, found this recipe and here's the end result! <3


Some conversions I made...
200g of plain flour = 1 and 3/4 cup of plain flour
100g brown sugar = slightly less than 3/4 cup brown sugar

Tried this out on Saturday. A few changes I made:

1. reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup (still a little too sweet, might reduce it to half cup next time)
2. reduced the number of eggs to 2, and added water instead after folding in the flour coz I realised the mixture is too dry
3. added the vanilla extract last coz I totally forgot about it

Also, instead of using a mixer, i used a spatula to mix up the stuff.

During the baking, the top part dried up too fast...maybe I need to adjust the rack position halfway through the baking process....in all, it's not a howling success but i would give myself a 60/100 for this try coz I quite enjoy the cake myself though it's not v pretty looking and might have some inconsistencies in the overall cake texture :P

Limits

You are turning 30, not 3. Please grow up, and PLEASE grow some sensibility that's befitting of your age as well. I don't know what kind of soul-searching or fixing-your-life can you possibly achieve by staring at your computer day in day out. If you want pple to trust you, you have to prove to them that you are worth that trust.

And btw, our house is not a garbage dump or a flat that you are renting. You can do whatever you like in your OWN house in future, but now, please respect the pple living with you.

I am losing my patience.

the end of a chapter, the beginning of another

Savi's my first perm job, and it's also the place where I learnt heaps. I'll always remember the laughter and tears we have had....the early days of 4.4.1, 4.5, 4.6.1 when we OT and OT and OT....then the days of 5.0, DoD 5.3 (more OT)...then Edge 6.0, SmartChain 6.0 (scrum time = less OT).

Then again, if not for this, perhaps I'll be stuck in Savi for many years to come. So in a way, it's good coz' it allows us to seek out new adventures elsewhere :)

Today may be the end of Savi, but it's definitely not the end of the friendship we've built....cheers to the many years ahead of us

Would have been good if they have included this piece of info in the packaging....
