Feel like an old woman. This is the longest ever i take to recover from a cold. Couldn't get myself off bed this morning for work. It's been a long time since i slept in. Guess i really needed the rest, and i should start to take more notice when my body is crying out for me to slow down and take a breather.

Plus the weather today was puurrfect to snuggle in bed. And i finally watched the Take the Lead dvd which sheena lent me while savouring a very yummy lemon tart. I love the way the crust, lemon cream and meringue blended so well, a burst of citrus and sweetness. Lovely! Hur. Machiam advertising for ba*ahem*kerz*gag*in lemon tart.

And i also finally had proper dinner at home. It's been ages since i had dinner at home. The past few weeks due to spending most of my time at work, my meal consists of subway, yoshinoya, fish slice bee hoon soup, chap choy fan and the once in awhile splurge on pasta!!

Well, a proper healthy meal to me means homecooked food, lovingly prepared by my grandma. There's always brown rice which i prefer to white, a few dishes of vege and meat, and of cos a concoction of nutritious soup. I swear cantonese people always make the best tasting soups. Standard ingredients always include assorted chinese herbs and red dates. i lurve the lao wang gua soup, lotus soup, black chicken herbal soup. Perhaps one of these days i shld start getting grandma to teach me how to cook all these.

Anyways, i'll be off tmr and thursday. yay! will be spending some quality time at home with the grandma and little sister, catch up with my dvds, catch up with more sleep, hopefully get some housework done and basically just spending time with myself.
