hmm based on a hunch or a feeling that i wanted to eat onigiri, i made them last nite after buying the seaweed on friday nite after work from chinatown.
at first i wanted to use nishiki, those japanese rice i saw in chinatown's shop. but as usual my money sense got better of me. i thought, it's all rice. they just need it to be a little stickier than usual. ( i added more water and cooked the rice in my steamer)
so it was a little bit stickier than most. anyways, i made five with the usual amount of rice i use to eat. and filled the middle with tuna and salad cream. it was quite okays i guess.
it was amazing that the seaweed just turned soggy and not break. even though the rice was hot. it was like a nice wrapper around the rice. well, my rice was hot and i was too lazy to use my hands. i put them on the seaweed right away. i think the onigiri would have tasted nicer if i had those prawn chilli fillings they used in the pulut nasi they sell in the stalls back home in msia.
hehe. a malaysianized onigiri. lol
anyways, that's it. today i couldnt sleep till 630 am cos i was watching anime and i think i drank too much coke.

my flatmate from hungary moved out. he left me some of his leftover stuffs in the fridge so i get some free food for the time being. not that it's a lot but it's okays.

right, ta.

Mr. Kipling's Battenberg Cake. looks nice..

hmmm been so busy on friday forgot to update. will post 2 post to console myself today. to the cake. cake looks cute. but tastes horrible. maybe it was because i bought it cheap from sainsbury . it's original price was £1.29. but i bought it for 49p. cheap as i was. maybe that's the reason the cake tasted bad.. but the expiry wasnt till anohter 2 days time. :P anyways, it tasted like smelled like cough syrup. u know those red coloured ones. tasted okays. the outer layer is just icing erm or rather sugar.. no ideas waht that was but it was SWEET. then inside, just like the normal sponge cake. all in all.. i wouldnt buy it ever again. :P here are the pics.

my boring weekend

i went to camden on sat and almost got rammed by a stupid green car on the way back. anyways, i was bored. and it was a nice day. don't know anything bout tour de france, or wimbledon. took my bike out. and cycled down towards camden. it was a change from cycling to work. i spent £7 in sainsburys cos they were having a half price sale on john west's tuna in cans. the usual price is about £3.19. bought some stuffs.. ( coulnd't buy a lot cos i don't wanna ride home on a punctured bike) but i bought too many as well. i bought jaffa biscuit for 69p. for 24 pieces. finished it b4 sat was over. took some photos on the way. went into o2 to see if i could get any nice phones for free. turned out that i couldn't because i havent paid any phone bills since last year. looks like i'm gonna hvae to switch my sim card to a pay as you go thingy. then i went to the outdoor emporium to take a look at the karrimor travelpack. i dunno why .. that one seems to call out to me other
