Cooking Inspiration
By Peace | July 25, 2007
Yesterday my inspiration was all about cooking. I spent sometime cooking what I had wanted to eat — been craving for so long. Though they are not that difficult to cook, it all takes time to prepare.
The picture above is lotus and gingko nuts dessert. I have added glutinous rice and dried longans in addition to lotus and gingko nuts. Clara loves to eat lotus. I love the fragrance of lotus soup. It was such a great satisfaction yesterday for having eaten my favourite vegetables with prawns and glutinous rice dessert.
As you can see in my photos, my dining table is always laid with newspaper. That is part of increasing productivity and efficiency. It is also saving money. In the past, I used to buy table cloth, beautiful table cloth and table mat. However, after every meal, there is a lot of cleaning up to be done, even for the mat or table cloth. In a matter of time, all the mat and table cloth lost their beauty and they add more ‘work’ rather than saves more ‘energy’. Ever since I had no more maid and I had quited from work, I had resorted to the use of newspaper. The newspaper is the best for everything in the kitchen. After every meal, I just need to wrap up the newspaper and throw. All it takes is your time to laid the table. After that upon finishing the meal, one just need to wrap up everything and throw. Two steps and everything is done. No mess. No need to waste cloth and water to wipe the dining table. After the newspaper is removed, the dining table is as shiny as before. It looks as beautiful as new. No stain and no dirt. The newspaper is my friendly companion. I am saving the earth by not using plastic table cloth. I am saving money and saving water too.
