Healthy Brekkie

Most of the time I have breakfast at a favourite café, and sometime at home. If I were at home, I would opt for cereal, yogurt and 2 soft boiled eggs. I tried to cut down my caffeine intake and drink more water. If I were having breakfast outside, I would stick to a healthy menu. Here is a short video I made.

Happy Birthday Meal, July 2015

Two weeks ago I celebrated my birthday, this time we have not gone out to eat at a fancy restaurant but we did have a good celebration with store bought food. I have decided to buy some frozen boxed food from Marks and Spencer and that was what I did and I have no regret in that. We had Chunky breaded Haddock for main and mashed potato cakes. We really enjoyed the birthday meal. My hubby loves the breaded haddock fish. I was a bit skeptical at first, but when I tasted it, I thought to myself ‘Money worth spending on’. We washed it down with a big bottle of carbonated white grape drink. Well, I will not hesitate to try any frozen air flown food the next time I wanted to have another celebration and to be hassle free with an event.

Ralph Lauren Summer Theme

The most endearing window display I have come across this season were those of Ralph Lauren store. I admired the use of pastel colors throughout and  the perfect activity for any summer day, the pause for a cup of tea dressed in a willowy summer dress. My favourite flower, the hydrangea is beautiful, even though it is artificial. The wood panel of the store is an added attraction. Sigh, how nice if every day is as good as it shows. Anyway, I have always enjoyed a cup of tea or coffee every now and then.

Seafood Aplenty

On our trip to Kota Kinabalu formerly known as Jesselton, we sampled a few of the delicious seafood, namely crabs ,cooked in a variety of style, buttered prawns, clams , calamari and a vegetable dish. There was plenty of seafood left over as the crab we ordered was a lot. Kota Kinabalu is a fast progressing city but it also can be quite frustrating if you have to depend on the public transport, the taxi charge a flat rate around the city centre.

Jesselton City

Recently we went on a short trip to Kota Kinabalu, better known as Jesselton during the British Colonial days. Here sea foods are plentiful and that was the attraction for us. My nephew is a tourist guide and he bought us to one of the city’s eateries and here you can order a variety of dishes, among them the yummy grilled sting ray fish accompanied with a heavenly dipping sauce, my absolute favourite among all, and the omelette which is delicious and equally enticing. The lemon chicken was also a hit. The total cost was reasonable and I feel that I had a great meal without breaking the purse.
