What to cook when you are alone?

What to cook when you are alone?

Many would find it difficult to cook, especially when you are alone.

The fact is, it is NOT difficult at all. All you need is some resources such as instant noodle (or any type of noodle you like), some veges, meats, onion, and some seasoning of course. You can always open your fridge and make full use of the existing materials you can get.

Below is what I had cooked for myself for today's lunch:-


Vege Crabstick Noodle Soup

Ingredients:-

• Instant noodle (dry Indo Mee pack)
  
• Some Celeries
• Carrot
• Two sticks of crab stick (cut into round pieces)
  
• Seasoning from the instant noodle pack, pour them out and mixed with some hot water. Stir until it's even and leave it aside.
  
• Oil
  
• Hot water (a cup)
• Medium Size Onion (slice it into the size that you like)
• Chili source (optional)
  

How to Cook:-

1. Put hot water into the pot, put in the noodle after the water is boiled.
2. Cook the noodle to 3-5 minutes, preferably slightly harder than the softness that you like.
3. Drained the noodle and leave it aside to standby.
4. Heat up the wok (make sure the wok is fully dry before you pour in the oil), evenly spread the oil around the wok.
5. Put in the sliced onion (turn the fire lower or your onion will turn too burned) and stir it.
6. Add in carrot slices into the wok, continue stirring (carrot need longer cook time until it is soften that's why have to add in at the early stage)
7. Add in celeries (it is also hard in texture that need some time to cook), continue to stir.
8. Add in meat slices (can be any meat), add some oil if you find the wok is dry. Evenly stir all the ingredients until you see the meat turn white (means it is sort of cook).
9. Add in a cup of hot water and pour the seasoning that had pre-mixed earlier into the wok, stir to make sure it's even.
10. Add in the pre-cooked noodle and stir.
    
11. Put in all the crab sticks and stir a little.
    
12. Add in some chili source if you like it spicy to your preference of spiciness.
13. Turn up the fire and stir till all the ingredients are even then off the fire
14. Pour the noodle soup in a bowl.
15. And your simple, yet tasty noodle soup is served.

The secret to get the taste that you want is keep tasting it while you are cooking. And, turn your fire lower when you have to walk away from the wok to get any of your ingredients.


If you have tried the steps above, you will find that cooking a bowl of nice tasty noodle is so handy that simply can be done in less than 15 minutes (exclude the preparation of ingredients yeah)...


SO...



Enjoy your meal....


*smile*


p/s: I have the photo taken using my mobile, however, will need some time to get it up in the blog... Please be patience yeah.

Saturday

It's a Saturday morning... a day where I will get to sleep in (alternate weeks when I am not working)...


It is windy today... soo soothing... that is so nice to be lazying around by not doing anything. Having my cup of Latte (half cup of Nescafe mix with another half of low fat milk) and listening to my favourite song, COOL!


Suppose to choreography a children dance, yet so lazy to start my day by using my brain too much (well, imagine you have to work full days during week.. won't you wish that will be a day to rest your brain?).


Going to church for Sunday's worship prac in one hours time... and, will enjoy my evening for some lepaking session till night .. it's been some time since I ever really enjoy my walk in shopping centres!! (I know im working in JUSCO, however, you will never enjoy the walk when you are on duty, you know? I can't... i meant ahah... work is work, I carry different mood when Im on and off work in shopping mall)


Life is been good, so far.. I mean... it's been good all the time. God is always blessing me and being there for me whenever things happen. I am not lacking in any area through His grace and mercy even though I still need lots and lots of financial BLESSINGS!!! (I believe You hear me, Lord.. hahah)


Well, I enjoy working with my lovely colleagues (yeah, we manage to make it a not too bored yet fun working environment by cracking jokes and being lame).. Many times I feel that I am back to my secondary school life where we share laughters, tears and stress together. It's not as terrible feeling to get up early and go to work everyday, cause it's more like spending time with colleagues (like family members) together. Other than focus on our own tasks, we share snacks and laughters all together (do I sound like I am working in a playground? LOL).



God is overALL GOOD, I got nothing to complain about my life. Not that I have a good materialistic life, but, I am rich.. in my heart, soul and spirit. Praise God for all blessings and the good things He has done in me, my life and my family.












All Cheers to the Lord Almighty!!!!!!!!!!!

For the sake of writing

WOOO... it's been.... months ever since I last written anything here.



Well... the update should be... Im now a confirmed employee under AEON (formerly known as Jaya Jusco Stores) as an Assistant Merchandiser in Ladies department. Working is been busy ( as usual...), quite some travelling here and there for store visits. Last week we went to BS (Bandar Sunway ) and BP (Bandar Puchong) and... on Friday we went Bukit Raja as well as Bukit Tinggi. So... other than these store visits... I have quite some paperwork to do as my daily routine. Dealing with suppliers is one of my sub-task too.


Colleagues wise, I am blessed with... nice and true people. Therefore, working is not plainly working but sort of like family life. Other than sharing the jokes, fun we, too share all the pressures, stress and exhaustion together... ^^ God blessed me with a sister-in-Christ whom I can share about everything, and laugh at almost every small little things. I am soooo blessed.










Well... I really can't write much in the reporter style.. ahhah... if you 'so happen' to wonder what's going on in my life.. I guess giving me a text or call would be a better way to find out what's happening...





AND..




There's no much updates... can I consider myself as.....




Nothing special happening here?




lol




Don't kill me.. at least i have updated 'something'






*grin*

A useful Daily Prayer...

A lovely message I got from through Friendster. Meaningful and worth sharing with everyone... Let's not forget to take out a little time praying for one another. ^_^ Be blessed!

I asked God to bless you
As I prayed for you today
To guide you and protect you
As you go along your way....
His love is always with you
His promises are true,
And when we give Him all our cares
You know He will see us through
So when the road you're travelling on
Seems difficult at best
Just remember I'm here praying
And God will do the rest.

=====================================

When everything looks down
And you don't think
you can hang on much longer
to this world that drags you down
You feel like closing in
and just letting it all end
You want to give up now
because nothing else will work

But hold your head high
and just keep fighting
you will see in time
why you must hang in there
it will be all worth while

Just look onto the brighter days
and dream for the ones you want
just keep hoping that
everything will be ok
have faith in the world
to help you out
Just keep wishing for
the brighter days
and they will soon
be on there way

Why give in and give up
Why lower your head
and start to cry
why wish your life away
why wish you could find a better day
when you don't want to give in
just a little hint
from me to you
believe and dream
and your dreams will come true
But until the times
when you see that bright light
hang in there
and everything will be all right

=======================================

God's piece of cake

Sometimes we wonder, 'What did I do to deserve this?' or 'Why did God have to do this to me?' Here is a wonderful explanation!

A daughter is telling her mother how everything is going wrong: she's failing algebra; her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.

Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, 'Absolutely, Mom, I love your cake.'

'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers. 'Yuck,' says her daughter.

'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!'

'Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?'

'Mom, those are all yucky!'

To which the mother replies: 'Yes, all those things seem bad by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake!

God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!

God is crazy about you. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.

Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.

some updates

wow.. it's been 2 weeks from the day i started working

Not that my work is really soooo busy but I do not really have time to blog during work (today is the first time). Other than me not blogging during work time, i was lazy to update my blog when I use my pc at home too.

No one no nothing I should blame on, I am just lazy la.


Well, this job seems to be better than I expected. Not the money.. but the satisfaction and freedom I get... as well as the company culture.


It's hard to explain this time. Honestly I do not have much fancy words to describe as compared to my previous company. But, I am liking it.


At least, I do NOT have to pay for parking. That save quite some cash from my little allowance.


My job at work, basically like... calling prospects, proposing items... taking order... ensure we have enough stock, checking artwork on logo printing... ensure the goods on delivery... some times do some packaging to help other colleagues.. etc.


Not a very management work... but I seems to enjoy more than sitting down just in front of computer and doing all sorts of paper work. I guess that is because of my hands-on characteristic. I rather used my hands to help others.. talk to others... calling clients and understanding what they really need... walking up and down in my office (my company owns a 5 storey building, I am sitting alone on the 4th floor, accounts and store 3rd floor, conference room and boss room 2nd floor... that's the reason why I get to walk alot in and out.. up and down ahahha) searching for goods... talking to colleagues... mingle a little here and there.. lol


It's not like a international company, it's not a westenise, organised company. But, warmth enough.


Seeing myself learning day by day... I am happy... and...


satisfy.




Praise God for His great plan, He does know what's best for me... at least at this point of time.


For sure!!



May you be blessed, just like I always do.



Amen!

Worries NOT

So... what should i write on the very first day of the year??


Slept at 4am last night after watching my taiwan drama (I wanted to complete the episodes before I start my new destiny tml), woke up 10am this morning... I do not feel much of a difference of the new year that has started...

my room is still messy as before..






my hair has not grown any longer...





My commitment is still there waiting for me...




My dancing has not gotten any better...




I have not seen any difference in myself yet... from crossing the year 2007 to 2008.




However, I can't jump to the conclusion as this is only the very first day of the NEW year.


I KNOW I will have my breakthrough... as Christ is with me.



I KNOW this year is going to be a good year for me... as HE is my Jehovah Jireh (Provider).




I am going to be a better person.. as HE would change me and heal my brokenness.





I AM going to have a prosper year as He is already there waiting to bless me.





Jesus has, is and will bless me.





Even though my heart is sorrow now seeing my parents getting older, I know He is good.. He is real and is been faithful to me.


Salvation of my family is yet to come... I pray that it will come any sooner...





As for myself, I am starting my new job tomorrow. I do not know what's going to happen and how will it be like, but Im thankful for God granting me a second chance to develop my career.

Was telling Uncle Joshua (one of the leader in my church, he is also sorts of my 1/2 father who cares a lot about me) about me getting the new job and he reminded me of what he had prophesied before. He told me that it will not be my permanent job when I told him about Fitness Innovations. I was a little angry at that time when he said that statement with full of confidence. I am not a job hopper, I do not wanna be one too. And I started that job with full of excitement (bear with me that was my first ever official job), his statement was like a big bowl of COLD water that splash on my face, I felt discouraged.

Today, when I put all the puzzles together, I see a proper picture...



'God had HIS purpose and plan for me...'


Things will surely fall into place according to His beautiful plan at HIS perfect timing for me.



Worries NOT.



Mayb this is what GOD is telling me of my new year.




Worries NOT.




But wait with faith...


just as He has faithfully answered my prayer of getting and starting a new job by Jan.








Worries NOT...



wait on the Almighty Awesome God!





I pray that you would have a blessed year too~



Amen!
