Wow, it is almost Wednesday already? Since the beginning of November, my little girl started taking piano lessons on Monday evenings, which means we would grab something fast for dinner, or I would cook something in the crock-pot so dinner time is not so rushed. Tuesday nights I would try to cook something hubby and…

Hi All! I know it’s been a LONG while since the last time I posted, work life got the best of me… My motto is try to not be a cry baby as much as I can, and to see the positive in things. So even though the project I have been stressed about has…

Hi everyone! Sorry for the lack of postings in the last couple of weeks. Do you ever go through “Burn-Outs” with cooking? I definitely go through periods of time when I just want to make something simple and not experiment with new recipes. Of course there are periods of time when I don’t feel like…

At last weekend’s grocery shopping trip, I ventured into the frozen seafood section, realizing there are variations of squids for sale, each bag costs less than $5! I couldn’t believe my luck and picked up a bag. Growing up my Mama would make these delicious stir fried squid dishes, she would always warn us there’s…

Hello my old and new foodie friends! It’s been a very productive week, 4 meetings in 1 week, one of them was particular exciting, because I got to visit an award winning international cosmetic company!

Frozen Basa fish fillets are a stable in my household, they are inexpensive, tasty, and absolutely none of that weird fishy smell that I can’t stomach. This recipe is adapted from Rasa Malaysia, my family did find it to be on the sweeter side (we have more of a savory taste when it comes to…

Through my new Foodie friend Nami at Just One Cookbook I joined Food Buzz a few days ago. It’s been so wonderful to see all the postings and passionate people who are willing to build such a HUGE community and share their recipes/experiences! I am feeling even more motivated to cook new dishes and think…

Since the big can of crab meat is open and only 1/3 of it has been used, I decided to use the rest last night. My generous neighbor had mentioned he makes simple crab cakes, so I decided it’s time to give it a try. Gotta tell ya, these are almost as good as the…

So my very generous neighbor gave me 2 big o cans of crab meat yesterday, though I had a hard time finding a good Asian recipe that has lump crab meat as a main ingredient. Somehow tofu came into my mind and this certainly was a good combination! Very easy to prepare also… Ingredients *2…
