Before I Take A Break

This post is a little bit of a mish mash of the happenings for the past two weeks or so. I am not in the right frame of mind (and also no time) to write a nice proper post with a focused subject matter.

There was another birthday celebration, again not mine hah..hah... My brother was very kind to tapau a few slices and send over for me to enjoy.


This was my "cheer me up" lunch cum dinner many days ago.


The usual Big Breakfast things - bacon, eggs, sausages, baked beans and English muffins.


I saw Choi Yen's recipe for Air Fried Pumpkin, so I bought pumpkin to try her recipe (since I love pumpkin!).


I meant to do a proper post on this but I did not have the time. I am happy to report that the pumpkin turned out very well. 


I decided to buy these hooded litter boxes for my two bosses. For three days after I set up the new toilets, my two cats were constipated. It was only on day 4 that I found deposits tsk...tsk...tsk...


Belle Belle squeezed herself into this red basket much to my amusement. She is quite fat now, fatter that Girl.


Ah! My stash of Tempeh Chips arrived! It's my new favorite snack.


My favorite flavor is the Original Sea Salt. And no, there is no such thing as a healthy snack (unless that snack is carrot or celery sticks or something to that effect), superfood or whatever. Moderation is key.


Again, I wanted to do a post on this but I can't think straight. Which is why I have to take a break. So I will see you when I see you.

    WOWWWWWW!!! That Big Breakfast is to die for!!! I've been wanting to cook something like that in the morning but every day I got lazy and happily settled for instant noodles instead. So kesian! LOL!!!

    You're taking a break? What break?

  3. The big breakfast looks yums! I like the look of the eggs. Those look like two decent "toilets" for your girls. I like the packaging of your snack. I would be interested to try the chips.

    1. The chips are good, even for people who dislike tempeh. They deliver to Singapore, in case you are interested.

    1. It seems like things are back to normal and it does not feel as if we are still in MCO!

  8. I think this is the same onde-onde cake you were blessed with before some other family member's birthday if I remember correctly. Must be very nice.
    That kind of breakfast will cheer anybody up.
    Wah, your toilets very "atas" lah for your two bosses. I don't think cats can hold out for 3 days without depositing (I think they tahan until you let them out...and they probably deposited in the litter box you left outside the house...lol). I've seen Cookie doing it (pee only lah) in some (neighbours') bushes (free fertiliser for the plants) outside the house! :D Cat in a basket...yup, Cookie does that too.
    As for your new favourite snack...I don't eat tempeh, so this won't tempt me at all...emping chips, yes! ;)
    Have yourself a good break...take all the time you need to recharge, rejuvenate & rediscover....and I'll 'see' you when you want to 'see' us. Take good care of yourself...cheers! :)

    1. The cake is similar to the onde-onde one but much better. The new toilets...haiz...Belle Belle use it only once and you are right, she has been depositing the the garden LOL! But Girl seems to be OK and uses the new toilet. Oh! I love emping chips too hee..hee.. Well, I am back now and it feels good!

  9. I like the big breakfast plate for lunch cum dinner. I was tempted to have the same for dinner tonight but it so happened that they bought sambal petai for us. Pumpkin looks yummy. Pretty litter boxes for Belle and Girl. Yummy looking tempeh chips. Enjoy your break and hope to see you back refreshed.
