Domestic Goddess meets Korean BBQ

since mum and dad complained about my unhealthy baking.. how i'm making them fat and giving them heart disease (sigh, really, how could something taste so good be bad?? sighh).. so i thought i'll use my domestic goddess powers for good and made this organic Ancient grains and seeds loaf.. and not only it was healthy, it tasted DEVINE. once again, my camera was too late.. mum has already taken a massive chunk out of it while it's still steaming coming out the oven.. i guess she liked it.. *smug*


that night big mammal and i caught up with YT, YT's Hubby, n buba over the all-you-can-eat korean BBQ. .. it was the first meal out i shared with the new family.. food was great, company was lovely, and with the addition of the sweet little cute as a button Ally, it all felt very grown up!

i guess it's watching a close friend embarking on motherhood, it just drove home that.. well.. what a life altering experience it is to welcoming a new life into the world and the sense of achievement for being totally responsible for another human being.. it's scary but nice .. :P t

here's something so magical about a newborn that is so captivating.. the milky baby smell, softest brand spanking new skin, feathery hair, perfect tiny fingers (complete with finger nails) and perfect little toes.. everything's anatomically correct n TINY!.. so there sat the four grown ups, talking, eating, drinking, while eyes never leaving the buba and giggling, marvelling at every little burp, flinch, fart, saliva bubble, frown, smile, fist waving that this tiny person makes..


the food was fabulous too.. but unfortunately, i ate myself silly and stayed up all night feeling like my stomach was going to explode.. was not nice.. *BAWWW*
