Halloween 2009

For all costume lovers out there, here comes our favorite festival of the year!! Unlike the previous 2 years, Jenna & friends didn't wear the same costume. This year we all went solo with our own creativity. I supposed to go with the Heroes theme, but the Wonder Woman costume was reserved already. My only choices left were Minnie Mouse or Bunny Girl, so I went for the colorful Minnie =)

Robin Girl & Batman went to LKF early to watch a soccer game at HKBH before the crowd control took place. When Captain America's Daughter & Minnie Mouse arrived Central, the road blocks were in place already!! So Captain America's Daughter & Minnie parade down the path with the crowd for 1.5 hours before getting to HKBH from LKF Tower (which normally only takes 1 minute!! Long walk but a lot of fun :) We got stopped by hella strangers for pictures along the way. For a moment there I seriously thought I was Minnie from Disney. I was surprised that a lot of KIDS were there too! So not used to seeing kids in LKF! It's amazing how small HK really is... for the only 3 pictures that i took with strangers with my camera, 2 of them were friends of friends!

The real party began after the 1.5 hour "parade". It would have been longer if it wasn't for Shanghai Gal & Uni-brow's restaurant reservation! We tagged along to skip though the line ^_^v




Bar hopping... but it takes forever for Batman, Robin Girl, Captain America's Daughter, & Minnie to hop from one bar to another! Can't hide from the press!! Muahahhaa... and Batman has to fight every Joker he met in front of the press that night! "With great powers comes great responsibility!" We couldn't agree more!



The the night went on! PAAARRRRRTTTTTTYYYYYYYYYY! Heeeeerrrrroooes & Minnnnnnnnieeeeee! hahaa...

Memorable moments of my NUTZ SISTAS!

My beloved NUTZIES! See you all in March 2011!!!

報應

因果報應, 天理循環. 出得嚟行, 預咗要還! 大概係因為今年食得太多海膽, 作孽太深, 應有此報. 我喺沙巴浮潛時踩海膽呀! 啲刺插晒入隻腳到挑唔返出嚟呀! 而家每行一步就都會刺刺痛. 我真的受傷了!

慘海膽小常識:
連續幾日嘅知料搜集所得, 慘到海膽之後應該即時淋白醋, 有助分解海膽刺. 細刺會融, 大刺挑到就挑. 調唔到嘅會慢慢喺一至兩個星期內喺體內消散.

迫你地睇!

又獻羞啦! 我會努力ga la!

Love having class with 亞品 & Con Con!! I want Mavis亞品品 to stay forever!!

Us 5: 鍾愛Pina Colada 的姐妹團!

The last time all 5 of us were together... that's the day that I ran into Mavis on the busiest cross walk in MK, when we screamed from top of our lungs and hugged each other, then got honked at from standing in the middle of the road... That was 12 years ago. All of us came back to HK for the summer from around the world. Fate bought us back to Eliza's grandpa's good old appartment that day. Then we talked and laughed, just like the old times...



We performed on every Mid-Autumn Festival at the Club when we were little, with bright blue eye shawdows and suicidal red blush on our cheeks. Why oh why did they put heavy makeup on us on every Mid-Autumn Festival Performance? Year after year, we spilled hot wax on the soccer field. Now they tell me wax burning is illegal? Since when did we stopped hanging out at the playroom and moved our base to the bowling alleys? Why did we always sneak out to buy fries during the middle of class? Was it Mavis or Eliza who always set the clock 10-15 minutes early so Mrs Kam would end the class early? How did you meet that boy from the ice rink and started dating? Were you two even dated or was that just pure stalking? How did Eliza became friends with my ex-classmate? Why did I cried out of control when you guys sent me off to the airport? How we witnessed one of us almost left us for good 'coz of sickness?




Here we are today for a special reason-- not only we wanna travel with each other and have a fantastic trip, not only because we love water sports and seafood... it's because Vicky is getting married in Kota Kinlabalu in 8 days!!!! We will be the loudest bridesmaids ever! We will be there to see her walk down the aisle and live happily ever after! In sickness and in health =)

The Return of Martha Stewart-- Moon Cakes!

Happy Full Moon Festival! Doublechin invited me to join a moon cake bakery class with her. Making moon cakes is a bit like playing with toy clay. hehe... We signed up for the Peninsula Hotel style mini egg custard moon cake class instead of the traditional lotus paste moon cake.

Ingredients:
Butter 50g
Sugar Powder 30g
Eggs 12g
Flour 72g
Milk Powder 12g
Baking Powder 8g
Vanilla oil 1g
Salty egg yolk 4
Egg custard filling 200g

Step 1:
mix butter, sugar powder, vanilla oil.

Step 2:
Add flour, milk powder, baking powder, and mix.

Step 3:
Separate egg custard filling into 8 pieces and add half an salty egg yolk into each of them.

Step 4:
Separate dough into 8 pieces. Slightly flour each dough. Fold dough to enclose fillings. Then shape.



Step 5: brush egg on the top surface of moon cake.



Step 6: Bake with 220C upper, 130C lower temperate (or 200C overall temperature) for 15mins.




Tada~


The hardest part was to enclose the filling with the dough. Needa squeeze all air out, not to break the dough, and size it perfectly to enclose the filling. With years of toy clay practice, I made it! It's yummy!!! Well, it's hard not to taste good when all ingredients were given to you in one pot. No measurement required! hehe...

Happy moon cake eating! =)

my first baking experience

暱稱

暱稱可以說是對一段關係的指標. 不論是普通朋友或是男女朋友, 當你擁有獨一的暱稱時, 就代表一個肯定. 感情的定位. 不知從何時開始, 我身邊的老死都有她們的獨特稱號.

最早期的是十歲時芭蕾舞班的同學仔亞曦. 當年我地friend到不得了, 她是我的"老婆仔", 我是她的"老公仔". 一直叫足十幾年! 我們的另一同學仔Mavis 成為了我們的愛情結精品, 稱之為"亞品"! 經過多年來的書信, icq, msn, friendster, facebook... 的洗禮, 我們已簡化成"my son" & "dad". 我和 "老婆仔" 和 "亞品" 的另一同學仔成為我 "亞媽". 一家人樂也容容, friend到甩碌! 雖然四人曾經英美加國三地分隔多年, 但只要在聽筒內聽到獨特暱稱, 距離再不是距離.

在美國都是用英文名字交友. 只有一個yung yung. 也算不上是暱稱, 因為當年給男朋友的花名已變成他的名字. 九成人也不知道他的真名. 也沒有互稱honey, baby, darling, sweet heart, 傻豬, 傻豬豬... 等等的可愛稱號. 有好友, 但多數是工程系的男同學. 沒暱稱才正常吧!

回港後社交多了, 遇上幾位好知己. 重遇中學死黨 "BFF". 我的best friend forever. 有甚麼心事都會跟她說. 她不在msn線上就會覺得那天特別寂寞. 幸好還有 "PIC"! 基本上所有心事也會重複和BFF跟PIC分別分享. 但是演繹給PIC的版本可以更激動, 因為我們也是drama queen! 需要sanity check時有 "老婆" DY! 老婆算是我班老死中最有道得觀念的正常人. 在幸福家庭中成長, 好溫馨好有家的感覺. 正常人還有我的失散姊妹 "同鄉" a.k.a. TH! 每次和同鄉出動總會被問, "你們是兩姊妹嗎?" 不錯, 我們的確情如姊妹. 所以長得不像但感覺有八成似.

暱稱是感情的副屬品. 暱稱是私有. 暱稱是不強求. 暱稱是兩人之間的回憶.

香港都有筋肉擂台

我從小就喺一遍自由搏擊嘅環境中長大, 同亞哥打交打得多, 自然培養出些少對武術嘅興趣 (a.k.a. 暴力傾向 :p). 甚麼四字腳鎖, Nelson hold, 黐手都試唔少! 所以WWF呀, UFC呀, 哩D娛樂性咁高嘅摔角比賽完全係我杯茶呀! 讀書個時好鐘意睇WWF. 有情節, 有演技, 有角色, 有技術. 最重要係觀眾睇得投入, 全場氣氛高漲到爆, 一齊嗌嘅群眾力量絕對勁過棒棒堂班fans!

朋友介紹之下, 知道香港都有摔角. 仲叫我去睇佢表現忝! 咁random, 我緊係去啦! 於是我係一個星期六下午就去左火炭工業區睇表現. 個show叫做"火燒後欄摔角夜"! 聽個名就知係勁o野啦!!

個show有幾part, 好多不同角色ge摔角手. 個個都有型有戲有技術!! 凳都打爛十幾張! 每次佢地飛身達落個台度都達到澎澎聲! 好專業架~





最愛係觀眾一至ge口號式吶喊! 道具戰中"鬍鬚女"用垃圾桶攻擊對方, 觀眾一齊嗌 "transformer! transformer! transformer..." 好好笑! 時不時大嗌 "Holy Sh!t! Holy Sh!t! Holy Sh!t!" MC怕大家唔識英文, 將之翻譯為"神聖的屎!" 笑到我標眼淚~





雖然現場好熱. 難得大家都留到尾, 睇足全場. $40真係低到爛!! 又可以o係隔離個間茶餐廳買啤酒飲. 好正!





呢班摔角手真係好有heart! 好搏命!! 我完全感受到佢地心中個團火! 完全係為興趣不計負出咁. salute!!

心痛

mallow 乖女啦! 苦口良藥, 你乖乖地食左佢啦。自從mallow上星期隻腳柺下柺下開始, 我日日都餵佢食hips & joints 藥丸。佢一向食藥丸都好耍家咁嘛, 通常好快就會吞咗粒藥。但係最近醫生再開多幾粒藥比佢, 而家一次要食成四粒藥呀! mallow而家食藥開始反抗, 扭計。叫佢食藥就即走, 捉到拒又令咩面。然後強制性竅開佢棚牙, 塞粒藥丸入喉嚨, 喺mallow掙扎得死去活來時馬上合埋佢個嘴, 頭向天, 等佢吞咗粒藥先可以放手。然後再重復3次。有時佢掙扎得太勁時仲會比佢咬到架。見到mallow咁辛苦我心都痛埋呀! 開始覺得mallow老啦... mallow 你要身體健康呀!
