Feeling sweet eating homemade egg-tarts

So happy....thx to Loo's wife Agnes who taught me how to make egg-tarts yesterday evening! I've learned a new skill & made my own egg-tarts! Still, i didnt believe myself; though i took more than 4hrs just to make 16 egg-tarts & reached home almost 11pm, although i was tired but the 8pcs of egg-tarts tat i took home looked & tasted quite good...yummy-yum. This whole week was like a full year of those night classes I had attended back home when I studied PSC or HRM.... I cooked a total of 5 dishes of which 4 were new, 1st time menu on my table, eg. horfun, laska, meesiam, popiah & egg-tarts etc. Amazing rite; i've never experience the thrill of cooking till I finally tried, its a good start to my world of 'limited' culinary & life is begining to b more interesting now than i tot when i first arrived in tucson. I m also thankful for Alice who has cooked some nice food for my family.

Learning driving was a thrilling experience in july last year & now driving alone & exploring new roads/places make me feel good & brave. However, i know i wil hv to becareful on the road as it is always dangerous. Now learning new skills in culinary is such an exciting experience too....so I wld like to learn to cook more new dishes or someday bake a cake which i never dream tat i m able to do so as i m not a 'cake' person. I would also like to share the good food wif my new friends like Alice koh, her darling daughter Agnes, Michelle, my angmo friend Cindy...

New menu - Chicken soup for the soul...?! maybe someday lah, i wil go to church again coz i now hv a 'urge' to do so, although i m not a christian but it'll b gd for solomon. I believe he still believe in Christ & now tat his work is tough here & tat the fact he is sick of many 'bad' guys around his workplace. I know he is depressed & if he is able to find back the love & tolenrance & trust in Christ, he wil b happier & healthy mentally. I've recently took out the bible which he gave me some 22yrs ago! It has been shelved for so long.... my friend Noraini from ColinNg&Partners has shared abt god's challenge tat killed more than 160 thousand lives in the tsunamic disaster & she said it was prophesied in their koran. I was curious & took out the bible to read... didnt know where to start so i read the first chapter which talked abt the Noah's Ark. Well, i m stil confused & questioned god's challenge - it is a challenge too great & harsh to bear, isnt it?!
