Riz's back for a week and he suggested jamming with a seriously experienced drummer.
Tagged along... and it's very good experience just that 3/4 of the time. I was lost. Haa
Only not lost during All Blues... duhz... the funk raggae etc stuff... totally catch no ball.. better off arranging than playing...
Rained... heavier n heavier... so off we hop onto the cab back home for dinner, so here's the looooonnngg storycoming...
Mon is usual dinner @ Fabs place without fail unless something impt pops up. So the rest of the days that even Fabs mum cooks, I will not eat. Reason is simple. Not nice, plus must wash everything. wa lau...
I remember being brought up washing my own cutlery and utensils. No such thing as leaving a mess for people to clean up after you lo. Not only must i wash up my own stuff, i must also watch stuff that's left in the sink... WTF?
Plus plus plus... the sink is no difference from a dustbin, always choking with left over condiments and parts of animal bodies like prawn feelers... it's totally eeekkyyy and disgusting. Totally not virgo hello... it's SCORPIO
To think that most astro sites says that virgo and scorpio are a match. Totally KO! & CMI.
I can take messy and untidy but definitely not dirty and disgusting.
Fabs untidy and messy at times but he's clean. Mum's totally opposite. Very or in fact, Kampong living. ugh
So this is only one part of the story, besides the washing for everybody during their family gathering, it's the quality of the food.
I'm perfectly fine with MOS teriyaki chicken burger DAILY. It's nice! but mummy's cooking is totally not very nice.
Dishes:
1) Long beans with prawn: eat it like 3 times a week
3 times never mind. long bean is totally soaked in the sauce that it's semi-crunchy. Biting it send a "carbreak-like"screech down your spine. Fabs admitted himself it is "plastic-ky"
The correct way to keep long beans fresh and crunchy is to stir fry under high flame, fast, with garlic and light soy sauce. Just 1-2 min over strong heat can already. Colour is bright green, soft just right and crunchy, juicy to taste.
2) Chicken stew: occassionally
Blend and chicken not tender enough. Eh, the chicken suppose to be cooked over small flame over 1 hour plus. The seasoning will sink into the chicken so it taste nice.
3) Any soup: quite frequent
Use chicken stock. A lot of white pepper taste. All soup taste the same. From lao huang gua, suan cai duck soup, water cress soup... erm...
4) Mixed veggies:
Cauliflower not soft... too big... seasoning is a lot a lot of garlic. So i dun get to taste veggies but garlic.
the thing is cause Fabs like prawn, so all veggies dishes have prawns. So the mixture of prawn in the dish totally alters the taste of the origianl food lo! and not that i dun like prawns, i only like fresh prawns and clean prawns. mean the shit thing must be processed properly if not i wun eat.
Quality of food is very very important to "pigs". Not nice I'll finish, eat once and that's it. no second chance. Poor quality food i rather just drink water and eat plain rice or something than torture my own taste buds. I don't care at the end of the day what comes out is just shit. But food can be cheap and good and nice lo. Food not nice means not nice. And the heart of the cooker can be reflected upon the dishes they make. Got heart not nice still can eat. No heart plus not nice...wa lau.. that's the worst...
Fabs gonna like kill me but i dun care. it's my blog. and this is the only area for me to vent anything out without needing someone else's ears. Computer is my best friend and blog is my confidante.
And the thing is I sleep late to complete work. So fabs place being old n possiblity of enbloc, doors don't seem to be closing well. Everyday i get awaken by door slamming. duhz...
and now the thing is fabby uses moi name to tell mummy not to slam doors and cook dishes certain ways, keep the sink clean blah blah, so i sense sparks k.
Sweetie u hear me? SPARKS!
soooo.... argh... nx time dun quote me in the picture! bu yao hai wo!
