Mapo Tofu with Shimeji Mushroom

First of all, it's not to late to say a Happy Chinese New Year to everyone who celebrate it! May your new year filled with happines - love - blessing and prosperity... Gong Xi Fat Chai! :)

Even I'm a christian, since my ancestry is chinese so CNY always bring my memory back to my childhood. When my grandfather and grandmother still alive, all the family member always gathered together. When I said all, it's seriously ALL. From aunty to uncle, causin to nephew and niece, grandchild,   brother, sister and even the family member that not blood related! 

But since I'm get merried and lived in another city, that moment is hard to find. 

Chrystilized Ginger

Ones upon a time, there's is a girl name Me... who is so in love with something call Ginger.

Every time Me is traveling and found a local store who sell a Ginger Candy, she will bough it... a lot!

And every time Me having a headache or a migraine visit... Me will sitting in her sofa - watching her favorite tv kabel (AFC & TLC) and enjoying a glass of Ginger Tea with honey... 

The picture will be perfect if that happen in a rainy day...

Oh yes... when raining is come, which is a romantic season and Me loves the most, Me will have the Ginger Tea almost everyday... 

So, Me is questioning why is she so in love this yellow and fragrant ingredient so much? 

And the answer is because Her Morher is so in love with the Ginger also! 

It happen to be a genetic! 

And thanks God for that, because later on Me is found that it is worth to be call as a "Ginger Lover" since lot's of goodness can be found in this simple ingredients... 

Edamame Pasta Salad with Asian Dressing

As I said at my previous post that I want to post a fresh salad recipe today, but with schedule on tight and lot's of things to do with the boys, pick and drop them at school and other thing to do in the kitchen, so it happen to be I forgetting write this post! :D

The photos is taken a few days ago so no need to do the photograph today, but I just wake up in the morning and planning to do a few baking activity... just like that... on the spot!

So today I make 2 pan of healthy breakfast muffin and 2 dozen of chocolate chips cookies. Ridwan  asking me, "Do I bake brownie too?" since I said in my post that I have to have something chocolately almost after every meal. Well... maybe I will skip for a dessert-dinner :P

Then I said, "since I bake 2 dozen of choco chips cookies then I have nothing to worried for a dessert after meal!" :D
