Yummy yum yum ($1.10) lunch.

Saturday, April 26, 2014

I recently discovered this and I like it so much! What is it?


Chinatown brand spring onion pancakes!

$8.20 for a pack of 25 pieces.

Made in Singapore!

I patriotic or what?

Today, I pan fried 2 pieces for lunch:

Waiting...

Flipped! Nice!

To each piece, add 2 tablespoons of baked beans. I like the NTUC Fairprice brand's because it is only 90c a can but it was sold out and I had to settle for Ayam brand's which costs slightly more than $1 a can.

This was piece number 1.

Tucking in while piece number 2 was still frying in the pan.

Yummy yum yum and the price of lunch? About $1.10.

Which supermarket did I go to?

NTUC Fairprice, of course.

Oops (Added at 5.45pm):
A friend SMS me and asked me how did I get $1.10? Shouldn't it be $1.00 + $0.66 = $1.66? Er... It is $1.10 because I still have half a can of baked beans left!

Old fashioned or growing older?

Friday, April 25, 2014

I was chatting with a reader on FB and I said how I prefer the newspapers in paper form and not digital form. 

I am very old fashioned. I like to be able to make notes in the margins, underline, tick or cross sections and sometimes draw funny faces (yes, I like to think that this is old fashioned too).

This is a reason why I really dislike annual reports being sent to me in CDs! See these?


I like to be able to do this:


This is quite clean actually. For some annual reports, I could write paragraphs, penning down my thoughts while they are still fresh in my mind. 

I have grown more forgetful of late and I am more easily distracted too. So, it is important that I pen my thoughts down quickly.

Annual reports in CDs? They are really off putting for me.
