It has been a while since I blogged about my home made lunches. Today, I feel compelled to blog about my lunch because my sister outdid hereself this time. Home made onigiri!
Wrapped up nicely too with instructions. Just tear down the red line and pull outwards on both sides. |
Oishi des ne! |
For any average income worker, saving some money by not eating out for lunch could amount to quite a bit of savings and it is actually meaningful.
Imagine someone with a gross income of $2.5k a month saving $3 daily for 20 days a month. That is $60 or 2.4% of his gross monthly income! Hey, don't laugh, some traders would run for the hills after making 2.4% on their punts in the stock market!
Some things, we should not try but this is one thing I think is worth trying. Bring your own lunch to work. If you don't try, you won't know. Trust me, it is a good money saving habit.

Looks good. :) What is the recipe?
Hi Chu,
Aiyoh, I am not the cook leh. Let me try to find you something.
Yes, it was good. ;p
I am only good at cooking oatmeal, porridge and barley...
AK. this looked like those é¥å›¢ from Taiwan's 7-11. NT39 / s$1.80 with a drink (usually, I'll pick milk)
Hi SnOOpy168,
Ah, it has been so long since I visited Taiwan. At least 3 or 4 years, I think. I miss the "small eats". :)
AK, sometime home cooked food is not mainly for money saving. I think most important part is about the FUN.
I also love cooking very much:)
Hi yeh,
I have no doubt that some people do enjoy cooking. I happen to enjoy eating more than cooking. Haha.. I know my sister enjoys cooking. :)
She would say it is also more hygienic to eat home cooked food. Healthier too.
Taiwan is fantastic place to he. All those street food & small eats, yet the babes there can maintain their figures. Perhaps, the hills treks & riverside cycling tracks have something to do with this.
SnOOpy168,
Er.. I have seen plenty of gals from Taiwan who are somewhat plump. Maybe, you only see the Betal Nuts Gals? Kidding! ;p
