Steamboat and Seafood Platter

I love to cook, I love to bake, and to complete it all ... I love to eat. Since I am sharing an apartment with a colleague we usually eat out. However, lately I started to feel the pinch of the fuel hike (as though that my pay is big) and "finally" understand the importance of eating healthily that I decided to cook at home.

So off I went to my favourite supermarket in Plaza Damas, near Sri Hartamas to get the freshest and the best ingredients for "whatever" I want to cook. I love to shop there as it is near to my house and offers fresh organic veges (me...going organic? I can't believe it myself). On my way to the supermarket, I walked pass the Bread Story, Penang Village, Yik Mun Pau Cafe and Kenny Rogers without giving them a glance... (so good to be true??? okay lah maybe got "see-see" a bit la)...

And so I took the trolley and went straight to the fruit and vege section... telling myself I am a new person now. Reminding myself that I must eat organic stuff... Non-organic products contain harmful pesticides and chemicals... I was doing OK until I passed the seafood section... the big prawns, squids, fishes looked so tempting ... like sashimi ...Then I tell myself... sashimi is healthy right??? And in the trolley it goes the nice prawns, squids and fishes...

Then I stopped at the poultry section, and at the same moment my tummy started to make a weird sound. I started to feel dizzy... and I think my eyes were deceiving me. The chicken wings started to look like Chillis Buffalo Wings... And I told myself... its OK... I can cook nice chicken soup with that .... (err ... farmers injected growth hormones through the wings right?)...

Hehehe... I think I just cut the story short ... want to know what happened to my groceries???


Well I did healthily on that Saturday ... enjoying steamboat enough to feed 3 persons ....

And this was wat I ate on Sunday ... Halleluya ....
