Fist attempt of making Big Breakfast

I have been anti social for a bit..havent really posted anything on instagram .Moreover,it has been hard to drag me out anywhere.I just feel like rushing home after work or any social activities(Church).I'm not sure why,but i do feel comfortable staying at home resting,have my own sweet time doing some personal things.

Oh...need to show you guys my first attempt of making brunch.To be honest ,im not satisfy with it.It didn't turn out what i expected it to be:(

I wanted to make a stack/tower breakfast but to me it doesn't look like a one plus the decor is not up to the standard.There is still so much to improve on:(:(  How/when  cant i make pretty breakfast like those that serve in the cafe??


Hannah's own creation
Breakfast Stack(Sliced potatoes,mixed salad,salmon,sandwich steak,sausages and fried egg) 


More to come ..

Life Thoughts

I literally spent my entire weekend over at Jw and Krystle's house.Really appreciate their generosity and kindness for allowing me to stay over every Friday night after youth. Because of that we get to know each other more and more.Bonding time its all you need to build a strong foundation of friendship!

Last weekend,the youth including me were so obsess with the new game resistance.(A similar version to Mafia game)The game really helps to motivate those shy or quiet people to speak up and contribute some info towards the game. This game requires many skills such as  logical deduction ,team work,and more importantly it portrays on how you should carry out your duties and characters.

To bring this game to real life,i think it does happen in the real world,especially when you are working in an office environment.I come to realization because recently  i was kinda force to decide who or whose instructions to listen.Its so hard to decide when both of them are the bosses in the company.Stepping the tail of anyone of them will just bring harm upon myself :( Really need wisdom to make the right decision.

Second thought i have here is ,why cant people be more forgiving especially the christian guys.not talking about adrian teo just in case you are being over sensitive.lol. All of us were all brought up in a christian family since young,and we were all taught to be forgiving like how Christ forgives us.Why cant we pass on what we have received and  treat others the same? We are all human ,not saints,people do mistake or silly things but i do think and strongly believe they should deserve a second chance.Plus,the things they done didn't even bring harm or much damages. Why should we be so revengeful and remember the bad things . Everyone should be given an opportunity to turn over a new leaf.If we are all judged just based on one little mistake or accident we done,we dont deserve to be called God's people.

Birthday Celebrations 2015

I cant believe it is almost halfway through the month of Feb! Time really waits for no man.If you don’t organise your time well, you’ll just wasted another hour, day, month and year!

Ok, let me start the year blogging my 26th birthday. Did I say 26??? Oh gosh, im slightly over the mid 20s.Im getting more and more worried of being single, ageing and etc..

Again when you start working, birthday is just another day. No biggie, No more big celebrations. All you want is just an intimate dinner with some close friends. Well, Im lucky to be able to pick my own cake at work. After going for a year of baking school ofc I have high expectations for cakes. So guess what, I picked a raspberry mousse cake from Laurent..By far one of the prettiest cakes I ever had!


cake that work got me



Veryn has the same birthday as me..so that night we have a duo birthday celebration at Paradise Road in Glenny.I believe Veryn had a great night spending her birthday with us! The funniest part is when she received her Swarovski necklace we got her. She said ‘I have to protect my neck whenever I wear the necklace’.Lol.  As for me, seeing Veryn enjoying her birthday somehow makes me happy or satisfied. Not sure what is the word to describe how I felt.  All I can conclude is indeed giving is better than receiving..


the girls that spent the night with us

Veryn n i with our cute chocolate mud cake



Birthday celebration didn’t just quite end on 30 Jan. On the following weekend, aunt and the family had another mini celebration for me. Aunt made a korea feast for me. I know im bless.Thank God for family and homemade mealJ.

The weekend that just passed, I had another belated birthday dinner with Shan and the group .This time we celebrate the Jan and Feb baby together. Just so you know, this is my other group of people I hang out with in Melbourne. They are the also the kindest and friendliest people! 



Last but not least a tiramisu cake with Evan and Shan

Ding and Nicole 's Wedding@Fairfield Boathouse (22nd November '14)

Got to know the lovely couple through Shannon 2 years ago.As far as i know,Nicole and Ding are a few people that i know which really have a heart of gold for people.The couple are both qualified lawyers but they are one of the most humble and down to earth people.Nicole has volunteered in many non profit organisations around Melbourne.And as far as i know,both of them actively help the homeless people in city by giving them food and etc.Ding on the other hand is the most helpful people you could find.His generosity and selflessness its beyond any words i could describe! Both of them just complement each other so well .

Ding and Nicole have their wedding at Fairfield boathouse.It was a nice and intimate wedding.By looking at the crowd you would have known how loving this couple are! They have friends that travel not only from NZ,Sg,Taiwan but from Canada just to attend the wedding! Canada its like completely opposite the globe and yet people willing to travel for more than a day on the plane just to attend the wedding.This has reflected the importance of the the couple in people's lives.

Not forgetting to mention,when we were seated in the dining hall,the lovely couple have had written personal message to all their guest signify the importance of their friendship.To cut the whole story short,lets browse through some pics for the day..too lazy to blog further.
















The beautiful couple Ding and Nicole

Korean BBQ

Korea BBQ in Melbourne will usually cost at least $30 to $40 per person.It is so expensive that i rarely eat Korea bbq.I was honoured to be invited by Vivi to her house for Korea bbq last weekend. Trust me,BBQ at home its like 10 times better than having it at a packed and noisy restaurant .Not only It is value for money ,we also have the luxury of taking our own sweet time bbq-ing the whole afternoon without worrying getting chase by restaurant .


This is vivi .Setting up the dining table at the deck 

We have a wide range of  side dishes to choose from.(Kimchi,marinated carrot to seaweed) the usual side dishes you can find at the restaurant were all on our table.

Let me bring you through the preparation process of our Korea BBQ.





Mandy busy preparing all the ingredients for BBQ.Can you see how much of  chopping, cutting,and slicing involved to prepare all these??
Seriously no joke.Now i understand why and how Korean housewives can spend the whole day in the kitchen. If im going to prepare all the side sides for every meal i dont think i can survive! LoL




Alcohol drinks that compliment well with bbq



Im drooling just looking at this picture.
Without any seasoning , the meat n fat will just melt in your mouth.
I'm willing to forgone my diet plan n just die for this!
Honestly,i know i will definitely regret the next day after eating it ,knowing how much exercise i need to do to just to burn off all the fat. but who cares, happiness comes first.


This is really the highlight of the day.Sesame leave wrapped with pork belly,kimchi,Korean chili paste ,rice and cucumber.The sesame leaf tastes so much better than the normal iceberg lettuce.If you haven't tried it before,you shd really try it.It can be purchased the any korean grocery store. 

PS:Feel like having KOREAN BBQ again next week(Hint hint Mandy..lol)
