Smooth Skin Species Avocado

You have seen the tree in a previous post.

Here's the close up of the fruit.



It's the smooth skin species. Ok, not so smooth, with a bit of blemish. But it's not the ones that we usually get from the shops, which are wrinkled species.

Take a look at this website at Purdue University. Lots of info!

Pop corns : Sweet or Salty ones for you?

Do you like these? I was at company's family day at Sentosa, and there was just free flow of these stuff. haha..





Well, we had many servings of popcorns but we just could not even finish a little bit of the pinky stuff. just too sweet!

Talking about popcorns, you like the sweet ones or the salty ones?

The Avocado Tree : Can you spot the avocado?

Is green leaves all you see? Look again!
Can you spot the avocados? There are so many of it too!



I have always seen this tree, but it was only last week that I know it's an Avocado Tree!
I am so so sua ku. haha...

Anyone wants to guess where this tree was spotted? :-)

How do you make the perfect half boil egg?

With so many places serving half boil eggs? What is your way of making sure it is just nice?
Old kopitiam sells it, the new hippy toast joints sells it, this photos are taken from still popular Hong Kong Cafes in Singapore.



Are you able to take a look at the egg above and tell if it is hard boiled or half boiled?



Experts out there, let us know! :-p

5 interesting crunchy keropok bites.

I have been tagged by two bloggers:
- Daryl of Authentic Malaysian Cuisine & Local Delicacies
- Shilpa of Flog & Rosbif

I finally found some time to answer the meme. Think they tagged me more than 1 week ago!



Bite 1.
Other than keropok.com, I own a few other domain names. I love to squat on domain names, but I think I have grown so attached to ALL of them, I might never sell it any of it. When I bought it in 2003, I was hoping someone would pay me at least USD5000 for it. haha... Wishful thinking eh...

Bite 2.
I go for a full blood test every year, (except last year), the latest being last Monday. They will take 3 tubes of your blood and check everything possible. LOL. So far, it's been OK. I have a BMI of 22.1. Shall not bore you all with other details of results. I am now waiting for my latest test results. Hope they come out soon! (and favourable too)

Bite 3.
I am one of the 2 guys who is in my Wednesday afternoon lunch time Cardiofusion class of around 15. We do aerobics, boxercises. Surprised? With all the food, no choice, have to exercise! I walk around with a pedometer at times, and exercise with a heart-rate monitor. This guy is mad ah? LOL....

Bite 4.
I almost always have ice cream in my freezer. It's either boxes with individual sticks or tubs of ice cream. But I only eat 1 scoop (yes only 1) or 1 stick at a time. It's in case I have visitors and I can serve them something. My colleagues certainly knows this very well!

Bite 5.
I failed my ABSRM Grade 8 Pianoforte exams around 15 years ago. (by a few marks, sob sob sob, i still remember...)

I think there's no one else to tag. Every flogger I know seems to have been tagged!

Are you a star?

I bought this ice tray from Ikea a few days ago. This is how the ice looks like!
