I felt bloated, uneasy and upset the whole yesterday afternoon. Not sure why but I suspected it was the crazy mixture I had for lunch! I had 2 pieces of "Jung" with 1 big glass of Milo kosong "kaw". Never ever try it at home kids! Feel really sucks! I was not motivated to do anything, even sleep!

“Jung” – see picture. Wrap with bamboo leaves, it’s a glutinous rice filled with various types of beans, salty egg yolk meat, etc.

At dinner time, my appetite didn’t improved. Seeing me like a zombie, my wife went to the kitchen and did her magic spell. I can smell the strong Japanese miso aroma coming out from the kitchen … mmm. Though I still have the bloated feeling, I whacked the whole bowl of organic mee anyway (including the soup!). Within minutes, I felt much better. I guess the few slice of ginger and the miso soup did the trick. The lady of the house made it again!

I’m not sure what she uses but we have a whole lot of organic stuffs in our kitchen! Here are some of the stuffs I took out from the fridge. We have various types of organic mee, rice, cereal, fruits and vegetables too. As you know, I'm a "bandaraya". When I'm out with my comrades, I eat what they eat. You name it; bak kut teh, curry fish head, seafood, etc. So, I'll try to compensate when I'm back at home...at least. :)

It does burn our pocket but better stay healthy, right? I mean, which one you prefer, spend on the healthy food or on the doctor? mmm... on second thought, I should start by avoiding certain foods and influence my comrades to go vege!

I didn’t achieved what I wanted to do yesterday, I was supposed to do some research on the “ultimate” money making opportunity but I decided to shut down and watch TV for a while before retiring. I will share with you (in my next posting) the various "money making" opportunity that were presented to me for the past few weeks.

Never judge the cover!

Today I visited an old friend mine whom I've known him for over 25 years. His younger days are even more colorful than mine! He was at least 2 x more rascal and uncontrollable than I am. I mean, when ever there is trouble (fighting), most of the time, he's involved. He's one crazy SOG. Lol .... Well those were the days! We have then moved on and mellowed down.

We spoke for about an hour and a half - talking about the current politics, updates on our friends, economy, weather and so on. Nah ... we didn't talk about the pubs at Kuchai Enterprenuers' Park!

Before I left, he gave me a 0.5 kg of blueberry cheese cake. It was home made cake. His nephew learned from his mom. I've known his nephew when he was little. But now, he is a humongous 6 foot 2 giant, who wears a size 12 shoes! Can u imagine a giant in the kitchen baking cakes standing next to my friend, his uncle, a 5 foot 4? Cute isn't it? Remember the movie "Twins" starring Arnold and Danny DeVito. Hahaha! Actually, his nephew was not there. It's just my imagination.

Anyway, my friend took out the box from the fridge and put in into a used yellow plastic. mmm.. doesn't look enterprising. I wasn't expecting much of it. Anyway, as it is free ... I quickly took it and thank him.

When I reached home, I took out the yellow plastic bag, opened the box and was surprised to see the cake. I was actually expecting a 2 inch thick cake. That big box definitely gave me a wrong impression. Didn't expect it to be that thin. I guess that is the biggest size that you bake for a 0.5kg.

On the other hand, the 2 little blue flower on the top left and a layer of blueberry on top of the cheese cake was simply quite impressive. Never expect that giant nephew to have such a "feminine" touch. See picture below.

I took a small slice and was simply amazed with the richness of the cheese and blueberry taste. Simply delicious ! I like the rich texture of the cheese cake and the tantalizing sweet blueberry taste. Very well blended. I whacked another 2 pieces.

I must admit, it is definitely one hell of a good cheese cake. That humongous giant can really bake! My friend told me that they wanted to sell it at RM35 which I would say to Secret Recipe, "you better watch out, here comes The Cottage". Not only it looks good, it taste great too, never mind the packaging. Looking forward to share the balance with my family tonight, if there is any left! :b
