Tuna Potato Cakes

I know that of late , I  have been cooking recipes from Wendy's blog - Table for 2 Or More :)  Actually I was looking for simple to cook from her blog and thus bookmarked a few and this tuna potato cake is one of the recipes I wanted to try out.   I  was not disappointed, easy and no fuss at all.  Best of all it tasted so good .  Wild Boar wanted it hot , so I added a few bird's eye chillies and spring onions to the mixture...wow, it was tasty and hot.  This is another simple recipe with no fuss at all.  Read on for the recipe............

Screw Jacks

You know I am not a DIY person but my Wild Boar is :p.  The other day he was doing some work  in the porch and he asked me to get him his screw jack from his carpentry cupboard in the backyard.  Gosh, I asked him to describe to me how screw jacks  look like .  He was telling me how it looks like and after all his explanation and description I am still not sure how it looked like. So in the end, I told him to go get it himself :)  Save me a trip to the backyard and since it is his stuff, he should go get it himself . I know I would surely make a blunder and give him the wrong one . Of course, I know kitchen stuff better than him but not DIY stuff ... LOL!

Aubergine Omelette

Another simple dish for dinner :)  Saw this on Wendy's blog and I just had to make them since I have aubergine in the fridge and something simple that WB can cook without much fuss.  You go log on to Wendy's blog and check out the original recipe.  WB added some bird's eye chillies for extra ommph :)

My Piggy Joanna love aubergine and I suggested to her last night while we skyped , that she can cook this for herself  :)   This can be served as a breakfast meal too besides serving as a dish for dinner or lunch.   Thank you Wendy for sharing something simple and delicious .

Small Kucing In Town - Kok Thai Restaurant

Small Kucing and his family came to town last Sunday evening and we ( Claire, Wild Boar and myself ) met up with them and had dinner at Kok Thai Restaurant ( near Jusco , Kinta Valley ).  Small Kucing has grown into such a fine young lad. The last time I saw him was 8 months ago .  He came with his grandparents too :)  It was our second meeting with his grandparents. They are such lovely people and we hope to have more fellowship with the kucing family.  We had a simple dinner and here is a sneak peek into what we had that night.  The one above is the Rolled Pork with edible jellyfish - the restaurant signature dish ,which you have order in advance or you have to either wait for a long time or none at all.  I love this dish !  Read on to see what else we ordered for the night :)

Cushions For The Patio

My sister-in-law San is looking for some outdoor foam seat.  I advised her to get the the dryfast foams which are suitable for  cushions on the patio. And they are specially designed for outdoor use , where moisture and precipitation like rain is prevalent, such as in patio furniture. And moreover I told her Dryfast foam formula is anti-mircobial and helps suppress micoorganism growth , common in damp areas. And the large open cells provide a degree of airflow , allowing it to dry quickly, even after complete saturation.  She is happy that I gave this tip on choosing foam seat for her patio :)
