I was not able to make it for last month’s edition of Delicious Vietnam. My site was down most of that fateful Sunday with server issues. It was hard and frustrating trying get onto those ‘tech support’ via live chat. It was a feeling of hopelessness. I have since changed my host and extremely happy and satisfied with it. So far it has been smooth sailing. I DO NOT recommend anyone to sign up with Fatcow!

Mister and I had a much more grandeur idea for this week’s Meatless Monday dish but all fell apart when both of us had a little too much fun on Friday night and paid for it on Saturday. There was no luxury of a sleep in as we headed off early Saturday morning to catch up with @cloudcontrol for grocery shopping at St. Kilda’s farmers market. Saturday was a total write-off. Napping or rather sleeping in the afternoon and then followed by @eatnik’s birthday party. And it was also a night of disappointment when Argentina was defeated by German, 4 goals to nil. It was the one team that I had so much hope to win this worldcup. Dreams and hopes were shattered that night. It turned out to be a really interesting market trip. Despite the very cold and wet winter morning, the turn out at the Collingwood farmers market was quite amazing. And I almost always bump into fellow food loving friends. As we walked in, we bumped into lovely @essjayeff with her bags full of fresh local ingredients. She gave me some useful updates about chestnuts and quinces. The two ingredients that were high on my hit list. Why waste time while waiting for public transport to be on time? I spent it on thinking of recipes and dishes that I wanted to cook or test on the weekends. And sometimes, I spend time daydreaming that I am in South of France, visiting the countryside and not a care in the world. This was one of the dishes that I concocted while I was packed into the train as usual, like a sardine.  |
