Not For Me



2 shared thoughts

Am afraid this ebook isn't for me. As soon as I got my kindle I got this ebook since I have heard raves about it. Ugh. I was disappointed. I think it was bordering on porn, BUT that is just my personal opinion. I know, lots of ladies (and men, perhaps?) found this book awesome. I dunno. My choices are weird, I guess. lol. Never even got to finish that book. Deleted it from my device. Sigh.

I prefer Rick Riordan, Isaac Asimov, even John Grisham. lol.

Christmas Online Shopping



0 shared thoughts
Christmas is definitely approaching and I haven't started with my gift list yet. Well, actually I have started a bit already but am not halfway yet. Usually, if I can get it online I go for it, like one of those dolce & gabbana light blue cologne, which I know my sister would love! For my sons, I plan on getting them something that I know they'd like: toys! I didn't give them any toy last year (was that so mean of me? lol) and that's why we decided that this year they will get at least one toy from us.

I know, I need to start on the list right away! :)

Ms. Oggi, with her Sicilian Pork Skin Roll-ups post on her blog, I Can Do That!

This is the first time I've heard of this dish and honestly, am curious. Ms. Oggi never fails to amaze me with her culinary skills and that's why I am an avid fan of her and her blog. If  you want to know what I'm talking about, then don't hesitate - click the picture above!

I love cooking but I don't like fussing too much. Specially like it when I cook stuffs in one pot and I get around two "dishes" out of it. lol. That's me being lazy. I guess. :D

My dish for this week is Fried Chicken with Mushroom and Green Beans. Not too sure if that's right, but ... here it is:


Ingredients:

  • Chicken (cut into serving pieces)
  • Dried mushrooms (which I soaked overnight in water, then sliced; you may use fresh)
  • green beans
  • your favorite breading mix (I used Crispy Fry), cooking oil for frying
  • salt, pepper, Italian Seasoning, ginger and garlic (both crushed), milk, cornstarch/water mixture



Procedure:

  • Place the chicken pieces, sliced mushrooms, salt, pepper, Italian Seasoning, ginger, and garlic in a pot filled with water. Let boil, then simmer for around twenty minutes; just until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken pieces, then set aside.
  • Meanwhile, continue simmering, then when it's half the amount it originally was, add milk/cream. Add the cleaned green beans then remove after about four minutes (doesn't take too long to cook). Set aside. Add the water/cornstarch mixture to thicken the remaining liquid. Adjust seasoning.
  • Coat the chicken with the breading mix, then fry.
  • Assemble everything on the plate: fried chicken, mushroom/green beans with sauce, and rice.
  • Dig in!



Sometimes I just add some veggies into the pot (after removing the chicken) and that becomes our soup. The chicken would be cooked (either baked or fried) further, since my sons prefer crunchy chicken. Me, I don't mind, really. As long as it agrees with my taste buds, then it's all good! :D

Reminder: Please don't forget to link back (a simple text would be great, or you may use the buttons provided here). Also, please try to visit the other party-goers and leave some commentluv to let them know that you dropped by. Many thanks! :)

ps. Seems like the new widget worked. Will use it again this week...hopefully no glitches. :)
