It has been a long time since I last logged in.I have almost forgotten the password and worst,the link to my blog.There are exactly 29more days before I leave .Eeek!It's a horribly small number considering the fact that I still cant cook.Oh well I guess I just have to pilot a series of experiments when I reach aussie and my poor housemate has to undergo all the unnecessary torture.It is not as if I haven't tried.I did,but the kitchenware just had to find ways to go against me.I thought slicing fish and meat was an easy feat---not without a sharp knife.I ended up with fish paste.In order to avoid the same mistake,I decided to be less of a perfectionist and cut thicker slices instead.It went awfully wrong.You know what I mean when the pork is tough like rubber and the fish disintegrated into the soup.You could easily get conclusive results from these experiments which are summed up in the following equation:
Jia Hui+ kitchen ware=taste bud disaster
Here's a poem that I created which I thought was quite an apt description of my superb cooking skills:
Do you cook?Never will I.
When dinner comes I'll heave a sigh
Into the phonebook I'll take a look
To see who else can be my cook.
But this is never a practical move.
All my friends will become aloof
Then I had this illusion that I can
Make Martha Stewart my big fan.
Cook up a storm my next brave act
Cook up a disaster to be exact.
I bless myself, turn the knob
A blue flame appears with a pop.
I make magic I must say
The blue hues are dancing hooray!
Lo-and-behold it starts to burn
Just when it knows my gaze is turned
These blue pixies dance out of hand
Abracadabra just isn't the word,oh man!
No fear,no fear I assure my friends
This is not the way my life will end.
Water or oil should I get
That's one thing I tend to forget.
A fiery face greeted my eyes
It must be goddess in disguise!
"Don't play play!"I heard it say
It's a command I must obey.
So here I am heeding that advice
No sugar,no spice and everything nice.
I'm bored to tears as you can see
Just because I (almost) made dinner for you and me!
Side note:I did not burn down my kitchen/house!
Leaving footsteps on earth.
