multi grain porridge with loofah, sweet potato, sliced almonds, dried longan and onions

 

[Fishypie]

is this supposedLy to be a sweet porridge ?..something new for me.

 

[ginfreely]

I'm afraid I did not actually say kill it. Really don't know if its dead or just went into suspended animation. Some people poke a chopstick into it to kill it I thought that its too violent so I simply cool it down then dismantle it.

Hehe Oic you actually cook crabs before? Chilli crab? Frankly I don't recall my mum ever cooked crabs before last time haha.

Hehe no salt or sugar added, only ginger and onion..the longans give a sweet taste though..

But crab often mostly for steaming or BBQ. I do lots of BBQ at home whether with friends or just with wife and maid. Love meat and seafood BBQ. I use the gas type of BBQ.

Bought a Kan Yao durian from this guy, 180baht per kg. This durian is 1.9kg so 360baht ($14.40).

Verdict? Ate one seed and threw away $14.50. Shit this is very bland and tasteless not sweet at all. Fuxx! I am sure kenna cheated. Obviously this is not Kan Yao.

Oh now Thailand durians not nice, remember last time very sweet leh, not the bitter type of durian..

Bro, nextime time try steaming crabs with beers ; it's wonderfuL ! .Just setup a wok, pour 2-3 can of beers; Let them boiL a whiLe, then pLace yours crabs over them and steam for 8-10mins..shiok !

 

[ginfreely]

Ordered 40 of these trees for 250baht each ($10) about 1.5m tall only and can grow to more than 5m. Here its called "Asoke India" tree the real name is Polyalthia longifolia. More common name is Mast Tree. I believe I may need more cos the parameter is quite long.

Look abit like pine trees, this is for your house? In the JB thread some grow pine trees in their garden.

I was very angry not because I wasted money but its like you're so excited buying something you've not eaten for a long time then cannot makan. Sigh!

Just curious, roughly how much to build a house in LOS? Last time my boss said she spent half a million to add one more storey - look like attic to me - to her semi d in SG.
