This is my bah chor mee (minced pork vinegar noodle) substitute.
It doesn’t have vinegar nor mushrooms nor lard and I substituted pork with beef, but who cares, it’s spicy!
Jo and I visited Portobello today! A Craft and Design Fair organised by Edinburgh Craft Fairs was going on in the Town Hall, but the highlight of the day was our walk along the beautiful seaside, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Love Portobello. We’re going back for a picnic once it gets warmer. (:

This morning, I woke up with an inexplicable urge to cut something. I don’t know what possessed me but I decided to cut my hair. I like to think that this is my updated S/S 08 look. But in reality, I feel like a bowl, a close cup mushroom and like I’m back in primary school all at once. No matter, it was pretty fun. Hair grows anyway!
I missed Daddy a lot while I was making and eating this.
I really appreciate the special effort he makes to give me the “chao ta” (burnt) edges when we eat char siew, because he knows how much I love it (albeit carcinogenic).
I shared my char siew over dinner with two lovely friends. J cooked nonya curry - the coconut milk was delightful! I only get to enjoy curry when someone else cooks it because I hate the way the smell of curry sticks to you and makes you feel very full. We also had stir fried broad beans contributed by A.
It’s ironic how food makes me miss home and comforts me at the same time.
