Rantings, ravings & ramblings of a rollicking mind

Standing in the shadows of love…

I had a post sometime ago on the different varieties of fried kway teow (flat rice noodles) that we can get in Sibu and I did mention that it is usually overshadowed by the more popular Foochow fried noodles… *recycled pic* …or the kampua mee. Well, the other morning, I stopped by this coffee shop [...]

Anyone who has a heart…

The SPM Examination results were released a week ago. Of course, there were reasons to cheer and to celebrate. Personally, I think that it is something like a pass for one to go through and move on to something else and at the end of the day, it is who you are, what you are [...]

Loving you…

Many people love to eat prawns despite all that have been said about them being not that good for health and there must be a thousand and one ways to cook prawns, for instance the nyonya favourite – the assam prawns or the Chinese-style butter prawns or drunken prawns. However, I remember that my mother used [...]

Sing along…

LOL!!! Actually, the name of the coffee shop is Sing Long and I’ve been there before here and here… It’s just that I mentioned yong tofu in my recent post on my fish ball and tung hoon (glass noodles) soup…and so the other day, I decided to go back there and I had this… I [...]

Not good enough…

I heard that they are selling very nice nasi lemak every morning at this coffee shop beside the Civic Centre (Dewan Suarah). They will display the packets on a foldable table in the front portion of the shop…and that morning, I just stopped by and grabbed a packet to try… They cost RM1.50 a packet, the [...]

A long time ago…

These have been around since a long time ago. During my younger days they used to sell them at a stall at the front of the now-demolished Sibu (wet) market. Today, that same old lady is still selling them at her stall, now at the Sibu Central Market. I understand that her daughter-in-law also has [...]

Can the can…

I still have a can of sardine in the pantry…and that one cost over RM5.00, Ayam Brand. It probably has been a few months since I bought it and I really wonder if the price has gone up even higher by now. I love sardines, even the canned ones but now that they are getting [...]

Could we start again, please…

I did not use my car for two days over the weekend and when I wanted to go out on Monday morning, it simply refused to start. I reckoned that the battery had gone dead- dead as a door nail, considering that I bought it in 2007. So, I called my mechanic on his mobile [...]

He’s so fine…

I think many of you would know this song… It was a hit for ex-Beatle, the late George Harrison but unfortunately, he was sued because somebody claimed that it was a rip-off from this old song – He’s so fine…and poor George lost the case. Anyway, moving away from the song, this post is actually [...]

We go together…

They went together, Melissa and her friends, last Saturday to this place called Butterfly Creek in Wellington, New Zealand (not the one in Auckland)… It was a beautiful morning… …with blue skies and everything nice… The sun was shining brightly… – a perfect day to commune with nature… …and enjoy the wonderful company of one’s [...]
