I have lost count how many times OCBC has revised OCBC 360 interest rate. There will be another reduction in interest rate again starting next month. Quite disappointed with the reduction of interest rate aka my kopi money.
Happy New Year 2021 to all my friends, cousins and readers! I be celebrating by staying at home and watching Mayday online concert.
This year, I managed to lose 12 kg but gained 5 kg from eating too much this month. Starting tomorrow, I must be disciplined and cut down on sweet dessert like pie-oh-my at Shake Shack. I had been eating double pie-oh-my weekly for the past few weeks.
I also did lots of flower sketching which I planned to do and read books that I want to read. Also this is the year that I started to donate to temples. I'm happy the temple also donate the money to the communities.
I believe next year will be a better year with the vaccine. But meanwhile do keep safe and wear mask.
Happy and blessed New Year 2021!
As I was looking at the sky from my balcony last weekend, I saw a bright twinkling star and three stars in a line. I recalled that my cousin had said that it is a sign of Orion constellation. So I used my Skyview app to find out more about the star constellation and indeed it is the Orion constellation. I'm very happy that I can see star constellation from my balcony. Fortunately, there is no tall building infront of my block and I live at high floor. In the future, I hope to find a home where I can see the stars in the comfort of my home.
On Christmas Day, my mum cooked vegetable and chicken curry with ready-made curry paste. My mum added lots of vegetables like carrot, brinjal or eggplant, cabbage, long beans and tomato, I love to eat lots of carrot and cabbage curry. She also added coconut milk and some spices like blue ginger, shallot and garlic for seasoning. My mum prefers to use the traditional method of pounding the spices using mortar and pestle stone pounder so I helped her with task.
My youngest brother and his wife joined us for late lunch and they enjoyed the delicious curry. I'm happy that I learnt how to cook delicious vegetable curry. My mum is a very good cook and I think I have to start learning from her especially her signature dishes like fried beehoon and curry.
Yesterday I was happy to see a beautiful red flower blooms just outside our home. My mother has been growing this plant for few years now and it's only recently that I notice the plant is a flowering plant. Just wondering what is the name of this plant.
Saw these cute fluffy chickens at Tampines community garden. I didn't know they exist! They are known as Silkie.
From google:The Silkie (sometimes spelled Silky) is a breed of chicken named for its atypically fluffy plumage, which is said to feel like silk and satin. ... In addition to their distinctive physical characteristics, Silkies are well known for their calm, friendly temperament. It is among the most docile of poultry.
