HOW TO EAT A MANGO...HRMMM...

Back from another trip out. Will blog about it later...hehe. This post is about how to eat a kind of special mangoes. These mangoes were brought back by a local friend from his hometown, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. These mangoes are so special that its only found in that area. This is how to eat it =)

This is a mango =) First you have to slowly squeeze it Keep squeezing untill you feel it getting mushy Show it some love while you're at it =) When mushy, bite a hole at the top Just a perfect little hole for your mouth to cover Finally, drink it down like a lassi!!! =)

Yum yum!!! Too bad I can't bring it back to Malaysia as it spoils easily =P. Even he has to pluck it on the morning he is comming back here.

TO ENGLISH OR NOT TO?

Scanning through the Star online today and came across some really interesting news. DPM/Education Minister of Malaysia wants to make English a subject that has to be passed before gaining a pass in SPM. Finally, they are comming to their senses that English is so important in this time and age. But sadly there are still some short-sighted people in the political scene would want to abolish the teaching of Math and Science in English. Tun Dr. Mahathir sums up this issuse in the only way he used to do, all respect goes to him.

CAN'T KEEP MY HANDS OFF THE COOKIE JAR

Went out to the mall last Sunday. Spencer Plaza to me exact. As advertised, is the largest and most up to date shopping mall in Chennai. So the expectations was there as the days leading up to the day we hit the mall. Big it is, but the inside just seems like Sungai Wang. Crowded shop lots and small shops selling local stuffs. But there are also those international brands like Adidas, Nike and Giordano. There's even KFC, Pizza Hut and Subway!!! People who know me knows that I would rather go for the local food fare...hehe. Anyway, that's not the point of this post. While walking, I smelled something really familiar and very very attractive. A we turn the corner, there is was...a cookie stall!!! Yeap yeap...a COOKIE STALL!!! My taste buds started flowing even it was after we had lunch...hehe.

Stoped to look at it and can't help but stare at all the variety of cookies there. The shop guy saw that we were really interesting and took a piece for us to try. We actually tried every flavour there like how you try the flavours at a Baskin Robins stall. We sort of like kids in a candy shop can't decide what to get and trying more...haha. Ended up buying 2 flavours, chocolate walnut and brandy snap. Its like buy the big box and get the small box free, only INR 390!!! Superb cookies and 2 boxes to keep...what a good deal. Yum Yum!!! Gonna slowly enjoy it while it last...hehe.

PS...I've posted some pictures on http://picasaweb.google.com/blazer8210/ as I can't really use facebook that offen and also its easier to upload pictures here. Will be putting up much more photos of India soon. Enjoy! =)

OCEANS APART, DAY AFTER DAY...

I miss, I miss, I miss alot of things in Malaysia. But for now what I really really miss is my dear wife. Oh how I miss holding that firm body, running my fingers over her smooth finish, and playing on her right strings for her to produce those sweet melodious sounds. Can't describe how much she has been there for me to comfort me through those tough times, times when I just need someone to comfort and sooth. Also how can I miss the good times, times of celebration. All in all she was there by my side.

We're now seperated by a few thousand miles. Really wished she could be here by my side so many times the pass few weeks. To just be lost in our own world, forget all reality for just that moment spent together. Guess it would be another 4 1/2 months before we can be together once again...
