Saving time, money and my backside but lost face?

Monday, January 19, 2015

In the ongoing saga of the holey backside, I decided to improve the living conditions for my nether regions by addressing the drafty environment through a patch.









Very happy! 

My sister has saved me time and money with her handiwork. 

Thanks, sis!





To be quite honest, one of the things I dislike shopping for the most are pants. 

Very troublesome. 

So, when I find some that I like, I would usually buy at least 2 pairs and hope that they last many years.





A friend who saw my blog post on the hole in my backside couldn't resist giving me a call and he said (not in the exact words):

"OMG! You are the only person I know who actually wears out his clothes to the point of having holes in them! And you actually blog about them? Don't you think it is embarrassing?"

I am so sorry. I didn't know I am supposed to be embarrassed. 





I feel so embarrassed now. 

Thanks for taking the trouble to inform me.

Be frugal! Save money, patch it!



I support the Singapore Police Force's austerity drive (no pun intended)!

We might stay apart but my mom is a big part of my life.

I like noodles. I have been told that they are not as healthy an option compared to rice but that cannot stop me from liking them.

Anyway, I use the healthier version of instant noodles these days, the non-fried instant noodles from KOKA. They are pretty inexpensive actually. They come in transparent plastic packets and don't come with any seasoning at all.

I asked my mom to fry some Ikan Bilis and ginger for me so that I could add them to my noodles for flavour. She gave two full containers to me!



I also have some Ikan Bilis stock cubes with no MSG nor artificial preservatives. They also have less salt than other stock cubes available.


Voila, a simple meal that is filling, flavorful and friendly to my wallet.



Oh, mustn't forget to have a fruit:


Ho, ho, ho! Burp.

My mom did the most difficult part, I believe. I don't like frying stuff. 

Made with a mother's love. Thanks, mom!

As we pursue financial freedom by building passive income streams, it is important to remember a higher purpose for doing this.

Money can always be made but family cannot be replaced.

Update (5.35 PM)

Ordered this for breakfast from a "chye perng" store at the market to complement a plate of fried carrot cake. Trying to have more vegetables in my diet after many kind reminders from some readers:
