MAHJONG THEME

Another new theme Mahjong. I like this project so much. It's a very challenge work to me because i'm from a Malay school. But luckily i still can read & write alot of chinese words. Besides i like to play mahjong too with my grandma & sister. Hehehe :P

I wrote every words free hand without tracing. So happy that i can write out exactly the same as real mahjong tiles.

Love the “飞”so much. How about you?

Nicely tied :D

SIMMERED MEAT BALLS WITH MUSHROOMS

Good evening friends & Happy Easter Day. Last friday was Good Friday, i cooked a new dish for my family ( Simmered Meat Balls with Mushroom ). This 2 weeks i'm crazy with mushroom??? hahaha... no, it's just a coincidence. I'm thinking not to put mushroom, but i would like to taste it as the original recipe from a recipe book i bought in February ( Hawker Secret Recipes ). Mushroom will give a very strong taste to a dish, so it's better not to change the ingredient.

My husband keeps shaking his head while eating, & i asked him what happen to you? He said it's very nice. Hahaa.. My kids also love it so much.

Here's the recipe :

• 1 tsp sugar


• 1/2 tsp pepper


• 1/2 tsp sesame oil
