A Letter to the Chef

Saturday, March 19th, 2005

Dear Chef (of the most horrid tasting tiramisu),

I write to let you know that the Tiramisu that I had last nite was not something that I had anticipated nor ever remotely tasted before.


When I ordered the Tiramisu after seeing your advertisement, I had great expectations for you are supposed to be a great chef by reputation or not, unfortunately, it was not like anything that I had tasted before from places I’ve had traveled, I was indeed very the tulan depressed. So deliriously disatisfied depressed that I couldn’t eat more than the 2 mouthful that I had coz’ it tasted like a piece of #$%^&***.

I am no food critic but I love good food and a good tiramisu is a cool, refreshing Italian dessert that once tasted leaves an indelible impression on you. I call it Heaven in your mouth and not like this piece of #$%^^&&##%% in a fancy cup, that you tried to disguise as Tiramisu.

I’ve attached a copy of a recipe for your perusal so that you know how to bake a REAL and edible tiramisu, and a picture of the tiramisu that I’m used to you $%%^$$^^ moron.

The above is only my individual taste and without prejudice but i’m not only disappointed but applaud you for even daring to say this piece of #$$&%%^^& is Tiramisu. That to me, deserve alot of courage and it takes balls and balls you sure have and i give you that.

I sincerely hope that one day you die chocking on yer tiramisu, I will finally get to taste the REAL tiramisu that I’ve gotten so used to .

Yours tulan-ed sincerely,
MrsT

PS: My review on the tiramisu i had so anticipated..!! Wat a #$$$%^&*@@$# !!!! Arrrrrghhhh..!!!!!!

Housekeeping

Saturday, March 19th, 2005
Daddy helped mummy to do housekeeping after Chloe slept. Now our house .. is halfway to be clean, for mummy got too much on her mind.. and too much to do.. and needed help. So this was what mummy said to daddy.

Mummy : I could use some help with some cleaning you know..??
Daddy : Yes.. i know.
Mummy : I wanna do alot of things… but there is just not enough time.. having to look after Chloe.
Daddy : Yes.
Mummy : I donch wanna sound naggy.. or want you to take it the wrong way… but i wished i had more time.. so i can do more.
Daddy : Yes, dear.

Anyhow.. daddy got off his butt.. and started cleaning.. and swiffer wiping his desk.. and fixed mummy’s sunglasses.. and while mummy cleaned out her own computer desk .. which is a messed and horrid looking.
Now mummy is all happy and going to bed.

Haircuts

Saturday, March 19th, 2005
Ever since Chloe is born…all her haircuts are done by her daddy.. ;) not mummy.. hhaha!! usually it’s the mummy that does things like that.. but no.. in our case it is not so. This shows how involved my spouse is with Chloe… and i’m extremely happy because .. my spouse loves Chloe this much.. to do stuff .. he normally wouldn’t even think of.. or much less look at someone else’s kid.
Our Chloe to him.. is the best looking.. and cleverest lil’ girl ever.. ;)

Farts

Friday, March 18th, 2005
Amused and inspired by Michael Looi from Heavenly’s Blog about farts and his then g/f .. i hope you donch mind me writing about this too.. Mike.. ;)
I am wondering.. how many woman out there.. fart in front of their b/fs or husband.. or spouses.. without being shy about it..?? or apologetic..?? or embarrassed by it..???
When can a woman let out a fart.. as loud as she wants.. and not feel a need to hide it.. till their face turns blue..?? in front of their b/fs… husband.. or spouses.. or p/t b/f..??? or make some excuses for it.
Let me recall.. for myself.. hmmmm.. :) I think i was comfy from the beginning when we met for the first time in Toronto.. :) Maybe it’s because we have been talking on the net.. for 6yrs..?? and kinda know wat the other person is like…?? and i really didn’t wanna fake anything.. coz’ this is what he is gonna get.. so he might as well know it now.. and not regret it later.. right..??
Shy a little at first lah.. but after being together physically for 4 yrs now.. not anymore lah.. ;) Can fart like an old lady.. also donch care now.. hahahah!! and it seems like .. my daughter Chloe is following my style.. when it comes to farting.. hahahahah!!! Just fart away.. heh!!
So what about how the nice ladies out there..??? tell me your fart story ok.. :) and donch pretend huh..??? everyone fart ok..!

Tiramisu

Friday, March 18th, 2005
One restaurant in town is having a theme nite .. as advertised in the papers. So me being me…. who haven’t had good tiramisu.. for the longest time.. since i’ve been in Canada.. decided to call up the Chef yesterday.. and asked.. if he would save a piece of Tiramisu for me.. ;) afterall.. i really wanted good tiramisu.. and good tiramisu..is hard to come by here.. so i’m hoping.. that the Tiramisu .. i’m collecting today.. is gonna be good.. ;)
It wasn’t the chef who answered the call.. but whoever it was.. was very polite.. and very nice.. and understanding.. as for my need for a good tiramisu. I can’t be happier.. ;)
I’m keeping my fingers crossed.. and will update everyone later.. ;)
What is your definition of a good tirmisu..???
Actually i wanted my tiramisu so bad.. because of Eddie from Cookengr2 , apparently .. he makes a mean Tiramisu.. ;) Maybe.. he will share a tip or two with me.. on how to differentiate a good tiramisu.. :)

Macdonalds

Friday, March 18th, 2005
My spouse was so nice.. groggy .. groggy .. wake up .. not enough sleep.. but still went and get me big breakfast.. and a coffee.. as demanded by yours truly.. kekeke!!

Oh well.. he’ll lived.. and learn to live with it.. kekekkekeke!!!

I’m Tired!!!

Friday, March 18th, 2005
And serves me right..!! for sleeping so late..!!! But i wasn’t tired enough to go sleep..!!! and then Chloe woke up at 6am.. and i had to sleep on the floor with her.. afterall .. i couldn’t leave my baby on her own right..??? especially if she wasn’t sleeping soundly at all.. waking up every couple of mins..!
So by the time daddy got up.. which was early at 9am.. chloe was up too.. and i wanted my big breakfast from Macdonalds…. and then had to give some instructions to the store manager.. about some claim code for her payroll.. and i ended up back in bed only at 11am.. *sigh*.. and got up at 2pm. So in total .. i had 6hrs of sleep.. but boy…!! am i exhausted ..!!!
So tonite.. i better not be “miang”.. and go to bed as early as possible..!!
Resolution for the day..!

Big Gal’s Food

Friday, March 18th, 2005
Chloe is eating her big gal’s food better these days… not so much smashing up anymore.. but she wouldn’t eat our food yet. Her big gal’s food comprises of the 8mths bottled food from Heinz. Occassionally, i try to sneak in some of our food … but she just wouldn’t take it.. she isn’t even too keen on eclairs either.. :(
But she is improving……. so i shouldn’t be complaining….. since she just started on her 8mths food only very recently.
All in her own good time i guess… ;) whenever she is ready.

Major Bully

Friday, March 18th, 2005
I’m a major bully to my spouse. Here’s why….

My spouse very intent.. and playing everquack… and then i stand at the doorway .. of the computer room.. after using the washroom .. and say to him ..

Me : Daddy .. do the milk har .. or else.. i terajang you ..!
Spouse : Yes, dear

Two mins later.. my spouse went to fix milk for Chloe.. meaning.. have all the bottles filled .. and make more for tomorrow. And then.. he went back to play his everquack.. quite tulan lah.. of course..! coz’ i make him get away from his everquack..! but who cares..!
Kekekekek!!! so yes.. i’m a major bully..!!

The weather had been so good.. the last 2 days.. that i didn’t have to wear my winter jacket .. when i leave the house.. and i even managed to do garbage last nite.. without the help of my spouse.. coz’ it wasn’t cold at all… it had been like 2 degree – 4 degree in the mornings.

Dr Phil

Friday, March 18th, 2005
We were getting ready to go out.. and trying to put Chloe’s coat on her.. and of course.. she was refusing.. and running away.. and i had just watched Dr Phil .. which i usually do.. every afternoon.. although i rarely make it from beginning to end. I usually only catch a few mins here and there… :)
Anyhow.. today’s topic for Dr Phil was letting your kids know that you have the power.. and not them. So while Chloe’s daddy.. was trying to get her to put on her coat.. he said this to Chloe… ” Dr Phil said.. we have the power… and not you .. and you know… Dr Phil is always right..!! hahah!! so put your coat on..”
It was funny hearing it.. coz’ i guess daddy is mocking mummy.. for watching Dr Phil all the time..?? or is daddy picking a tip or two from Dr Phil..???
Anyhow.. we did get Chloe to put on her coat.. and that’s the whole idea right..??

A Day Out

Thursday, March 17th, 2005
It was a really nice day.. at 4 degree.. therefore.. it would be a great waste.. if we kept Chloe at home.. so after her nap.. we bundled her up.. in her new clothes .. from Aunt Helena .. and Gerald.. and went to the store.

Chloe had a blast in the store.. roaming around.. and yabbering.. !

We headed for the supermarket before coming home.. and after daddy fed Chloe her dinner.. he went back to work.
A rather uneventful day.. but was nice. The only thing was .. Chloe was teething bad again.. poor baby..!
