A Lot Better

My previous post was about how hot it has been here in very sunny California. But the weather has been pretty nice these last few days. In fact despite the early mornings cloud, the weather was pretty good. No more sweat and no more feeling 'berlengas'. (thanks RG for reminding me of the word).

Last week, Diana and baby Zara came to my apt twice. Tue, for assam laksa and Thur for kari kapitan udang and sweet and sour tilapia. I got the recipe for kari kapitan from
Gert . I think that was the first time Iv had kari kapitan and oh my god, it was so good. Ya ya ya. I know it sounded a bit like 'masuk bakul angkat sendiri' but what can I say, it was really good. I took a pic but have yet to download the pic. Il do so sometime this week.

Today, I got an email from Gert saying that she sent me some kari/curry leaves. I rushed down to the mailbox coz I realised that I havent check it since last thur. True enough, there was a package for me from Gert. She not only sent me the curry leaves but also some other goodies that I wont mention here for I know some of u nanti jealous kat I. hahahhahahha. U guys have to call me to find out what she sent me. ;P

On another note, I watched 60 Minutes last night about the dangers that the Iraqis who worked as translators for U.S army in Iraq are facing now. Read/watch about it
60Minutes and let me know what you think.

P.S. Daphne, thank you for the here and here thingy! hehe..

dont we all love daphne? she always comes in handy didnt she? fyi,pj, daphne's the one who taught me to do the linking here and here thing too. altho i have yet to get it correctly but i've got the idea somehow.

eh, iraq? shouldnt it be 'eye-rack'? or only the rednecks pronounce as such...

ala Kak Ram ni, kalau hantar choc mestilah cair.

RG, kalau dah perantau tu, kenalah masak selalu. kalau tak kena makan makanan omputeh tiap hari jelak sis oi.

Kerp, actually i found out thru her comment on ur blog. lepas tu i mintak dia ajar i jugak. ;) 'eye-rack' as pronounced as most american, not just red-necks.

Envy, anytime i boleh masak untuk u anak-beranak. i tunggu u datang cali ok? sebenarnya gert hantar i daun curry and also some other stuff incl konyaku jelly! my fav.
