Yeepee!!!

Tuesday, January 22, 2013

My weekend has been beyond awesome as I brought home with two super duper dreamy luxurious presents, one for my birthday and one for the forthcoming Valentine's. February is not even here yet but I'm already fully immersed in the Feb Fabulousness (^___^)V Not to mention my favorite celebration of all, Chinese New Year! Woo Hoo~~

So here, a miscellaneous post before all the excitements kick in, I'm basically blogging for the sake of blogging, bear with me for now :p

Untitled
#1 Organic instant oatmeal is my current can't-live-without, only 140 cals per serving, and I eat it as breakfast or brunch, super filling can!

Untitled
#2 New flats which I purchased for my baby sis :D

Untitled
#4 Chloe's big gal feeding set from OXO tot. Love the quality (especially the stainless steel spoon & fork) and lovely design~~ Hopefully the functionality is equally great too.

Untitled
#5 Chean picked a birthday dress for me and it just came in my mailbox last Sat, adore its simplicity & trendiness, most importantly, it fits perfectly. How blessed it is to have an artsy hubby like Chean; he always has a great taste.

Untitled
#6 Gear up & ready for CNY's nail art madness.

Untitled
#7 The bamboo plants that I place next to my father-in-law pic frame were withering, have them for about 1.5 years... It's totally an overnight incident, I've no idea what went wrong. So I thought the plants didn't get enough sunlight and shifted them to the porch, they died the very next day due to the super cold breeze I guess. Such a dumb, so sad :'(

Untitled
#8 Finished them in 2 days. Sigh. More instant oatmeal please!!!

Untitled
#9 Buying M.O.R.E luggage @.@

Untitled
#10 Meow~~ Girl's Generation is one of my latest addictions too~~

Untitled
#11 Revealed my ultimate secret, Givenchy Liquid Foundation that I've been using since I was preggie. Share more details with you gals soon!



Already! Chloe is up... See ya!



With lotsa love,
Bev

Yummy Avocado Mayonnaise Spread

Tuesday, January 15, 2013

It's about diet recipe again. Learned the recipe from a Chinese TV talk show called 《爱呀幸福女人》hosted by a Taiwanese celebrity 阿雅; she made this Avocado Mayo Spread for 刘嘉玲 (Carina Lau) while interviewing her on the show.

Chloe is super into avocado now, she eats it almost everyday but she only consumes 1/8 of a whole avocado. Therefore, Mama Bev constantly has to finish the leftover avocado by 48 hours before it became an awful brown slimy mess; that is why this recipe is so perfect!

Untitled
#1 Scoop out the flesh and put it in a bowl.
Untitled
#2 Mash or mush, your call. I like to be a little chunky.

Untitled
#3 Mix with mayo.

Untitled
#4 Add in your fave nutty goodness for a little crunchiness; walnut for me again.

Untitled
#5 This is the extra step. I simply like dried cranberries in everything :p

Untitled
#6 Taa daaaaaaa \(^__^)/

Super yummilicious! 阿雅 pairs the avocado mayo spread with a slice of cheese, but I decided to omit that since I'm on strict diet now. This is something that I can eat everyday, in fact, I just had for dinner! Yummy yummy in my tummy! Hehehe~~


p/s: Watch the show, it's awesome! I like the 蔡康永 episode the best!


Promise blog more often,
Bev



BS Signature Salad

Tuesday, January 8, 2013

Sorry for the lack of blogging, you know why I am sure... Ya, Chloe keeps me very busy, what a convenient excuse, hehe...

Anyway, those who are following me on Facebook already know that I'm currently on diet (again, for the 878582364528346 times), extremely loud this time as I'm dying to get rid of the stubborn postpartum fats. So here's the "diet recipe" that I self-invented, the BS signature salad that I shamelessly called, is something that is so simple to make and so delicious to eat~~ Not only it is packed with exponentially antioxidants and nutritional benefits but also super filling too! Perfect for lunch ^__^V

** Simple Egg Salad **
Untitled
#1 This adds a little extra flavor to the veggie salad but it's totally optional, omit the egg salad if you want a super duper skinny salad.

Step 1: Mash up the chopped hard-boiled egg with a fork or spoon.

Step 2: Add in sugar if you want a little sweetness or sprinkle with salt, your call (I like it sweet).

Step 3: Mix together with 1-2 tbsp of Mayo to achieve the desired texture, creamy or a bit dry (I personally prefer the creamy & moist one).

Untitled
#2 Taa daa~~ It's my all time fave, and I can eat 3 slices of bread with it despite the fact that I hate Gardenier & Popeye or any kind of bread; it also brings back lotsa high school memories... Ahem... grandmother storytelling time... Not going to steal the credit, my aunt actually taught me the recipe and this egg salad brought in so much extra pocket money back then, serious. My mum & aunts were running a canteen in a high school when I was 13-15 (15 years ago?), so I used to make the egg salad sandwiches and sold them at RM1.20 for two pieces, wakaka~~ It was good business I tell you (cause I only made a loaf, that means I can roughly earn about RM12-15 every day), the students kept coming back for more and I even had regular customers loh :p

The end. Now back to the salad...

Untitled
#3 Prepacked organic spring mix veggie (the main ingredient), pecans, dried cranberries (or raisins), and sunflower seeds. As for the nutty part, just add whatever nuts that you like; it just happened that I have the pecans & sunflower seeds at home.

Untitled
#4 The salad dressing: Balsamic vinegar and olive oil (also my cooking oil). Sorry about the bad pic, argh, Meitu's quality is so poor (T^T).

Untitled
#5 Also, pick a type of your favorite fruit, choose something that will go with the earthy taste of the veggie salad k... Definitely no durian. Usually, apple and grapefruit are the first two options but I ran out of them, so I added avocado instead.

Then, slightly mix all the ingredient (don't overmix as the egg salad may become gooey & watery), and feel the skinniness running through your throat to your belly.

Happy dieting!!!


p/s: Feel free to add in cucumber, red/yellow/green sweet pepper, carrot, celery and etc... The sky is the limit, ermm, I mean tummy...


Have fun,
Bev
