monday post

i am thankful that today is a public holiday.

the day started when i drove to boon keng to collect 2 x portable fans from the nuscd diva mrs wee.


a few months ago mrs wee was raving how wonderful this portable fan is, how it made her 2 children so comfortable in hong kong's sweaty summer and what made the summer worse is that hong kong got no trees. (let's appreciate singapore for being a garden city and of course Mr LKY's vision of making that happen)

and hence i asked her to buy 2 portable fans for me. one for XX (darling's niece), and one for the future child. hahahaha.

mrs wee was super impressed that i actually made the EFFORT to drive to her house at boon keng just to collect the fans from her. and she compared me to a friend of hers who was willing to drive to a super far place just to buy otak. ok a bit random but nvm. hahahahahaha. thanks for the fans mrs wee!

on another random note, darling bought a new phillips air fryer! thankful to her sec sch friend who was able to get it at a 50% discount!

so we decided to cook lunch using the air fryer!


zucchini! we wanted to make this because the zucchini at one ninety (four seasons hotel) was very nice!

white fish filet with pesto sauce!

chicken drumlets marinated with dark soy sauce, sambal chilli and honey! marination done by darling!

french fries from potato strips! potato strips cut by darling~

the food was easy to prepare, good to eat. but the air fryer was hard to wash. i posted the pictures on instagram and my colleague replied, giving me a tip to protect the air fryer during the cooking so that washing can be easier! my colleague was a member of the air fryer club since last year. i am thankful for social media and thankful for responsive colleagues. :D

looking forward to prepare more delicious food with the air fryer!

the golden jubilee long weekend is coming to an end, and these pictures below best depict the feelings of teachers and students.
