Magical words .........

There is a lot of people like put a lot of their personal stuff in their work station..
eg. small teddy bears, plastic flowers, key chain, snacks n so on..

but what amaze me is they put some motivation or some magical slogans in their workstation......

3 Simple rules ?

there is another one ......Slow, expensive n not good....

sorry the "I" was hidden from the flower....

this is from my IT colleague's workstation ....  

Well if u ask me what is my magical word ..

My Blog Title says all ... a Simple Person who wants a Simple Life........

Cheers ...

My daily yummy? Oats breakfast.......

I think it was few years back since my last medical check....Tat time.... My good n bad cholesterol was way too high.....
Then I start to reduce those fatty meat, seafood, fried stuff n so on....
But it just lasted for few mths.....
I foreseen now my cholesterol level is shooting up due to my eating behavior...
Lots of seafood, fatty meat - bak kut teh, siu yuk, tong poh yuk, fast food, n other not so healthy stufff......

After d cny I had been reducing a lot of these sinfully food.....
Every morning I start to eats oats....
I got this from of my dad's friend, which is now about 70 years old...
He is very healthy n full of energy...
He advise me to eat healthy n do lots of exercise.......
2 tablespoon of oats....it must b those cook oats.. Not instant
You could add more if u want...Put in a normal bowl......

Fill it up with normal drinking water.....Leave it overnight.....

Ready to drink ......

Drink it before you go to 4 work/school.....

Lazy n relaxing weekend......

It is finally here... Weekend.....No plans yet.... Just feel like want to have a relaxing weekend...
As usual I went for morning jog.....
Then went to aunty Annie @ PJ Uptown for ipoh menglembu wan tan mee...
D char siu wan tan is very nice....
But it is not original..
D Ipoh menglembu wan tan mee does not put dark soya sauce, no char siu, got beanstrout..
Sorry no pictures.. I forgot to bring my bb....
Then I clean up d house n file in all my bills, bank statement, credit card statement....
Spent an hour to complete it...
I think I need to file those documents 1x/mth.......

Then went to my fav chicken rice, O & S restaurant @ sea park pj.
Char siu + fried chicken = RM5.00
It is very good.....

Catch up some tvb series n afternoon nap...

Then I went to Midvally to collect my new curtains which I bought it @ Kamdar 2 weeks ago.
My current curtain was a bit thick n not so much of sunlight could pass through n it makes my house very dark....
So I got a transparent curtain.. So more sunlight could pass through so my house could b brighter...

Price is cheaper at Kamdar.. compare to SSF curtains....

A lot of farbic to choose

My new curtain .....Definetely brighter and does not need to on the lights...

After that we went to Fong Lye for my dinner... A Taiwanese restaurant....
I had a great experience @ Xian Din Wei
N kinda have a high expectation on Fong Lye....
A lot of customers as usual.....
But waiting time was kinda short n got my table for 2.... yeah .. coz we are starving...

As usual a lot of customers in the restaurant...

There r lots of foreigners working over there...
They were trained to greet in Chinese 欢迎光临 (welcome)....
Hmmm but I still prefer XDW .. Not so many foreigner workers...
Ordering was kinda hard....
My wife doesn't take spicy n i told them to separate the sauce n d food..
I had reminded them 3 times yet they still mix it....

Use a broken sauce plate...... Not so presentable huh...

Lots of set meals....
We ordered tomato fish set meal n it is good...
It will be very delicious if they use this on hainanese chicken chop...

Then herbal soup n taiwanese burger...
Soup is good n have lots of pigs intestines..
Taiwanese burger... Taste is unique... Spicy, sour, sweet, salty...
It has a small slice of pork belly, ham choy 咸菜, ground peanuts, sugar, parsley.....

Small pc of pork belly n big steam mantou...

Herbal Soup with pigs intestines.. i thought it has a strong black peper..

It just an ordinary chinese soup taste....

Taiwanese fried oyster...
We don't find it tasty but the sauce is unique..
It fried together with some cabbage.....

To me I feel tat FL is more towards to fast food restaurant...
Foods r unique......

Bottle Mineral water vs Amway water filter

Mineral water bottle for our daily drinking water...?
Yup .. my company is providing bottle mineral water for their staff..
Each day I am drinking about 4~5 bottles/day
( I guess that if a bottle cost RM1.00 .. then I been drinking about RM5.00/day)

Only 2 bottles left in my room.......

Yesterday my company just installed a Amway water filter..
n now the company has stop supply us the bottle mineral water ....
It is only mainly for the guest and the VIPs.....

I have not taste the Amway water yet .. but I heard that it is very good...
Safe to drink without any hesitation.. LOL...

d design looks very modern.....

Now I need to buy myself a tupperware for filling up water for my daily drinking.....

Well hope that with this saving .. the company could give a bigger bonus this year.. LOL ..
Waiting n hoping........

Is thurs......... Seafood or happy hour?

Time really flies........
tommorow will b Fri... N soon will b weekend......
A bunch of my my colleagues were planning to go to fatty crab again....
Oh no not again...... I guess tat my cholesterol level is still shooting high....
I politely turn down their invitation...

Then my other friends call me up n asking me to join them 4 happy hour.....
Since long time never seen my friends so I opt 4 d happy hour @ geographer, puchong...
Well actually they r regular over there...... Always go there on thurs night..
But I seldom join them.... So can't find any good excuses 4 not going...
I join them this time.....
Had my dinner @ Umaiya japs restaurant... Couple of block away.....
Food was great...... Catch up with them.. Crack some jokes.... Then talk abt ms tow truck girl n so on..
After tat we head 2 geographer......
It was very fun..... Being together with good frens... N chill out.....
Another way to destress .......

Chinese group - english, chinese & malay songs ......

Exhausted day...... Simple Dinner welcome me......

Today work was pretty hectic.....
Reached home @ 8pm n my loving wife had prepared a simple dinner 4 me....
Rice, abc soup, beanstrout, SIU YUK,fried egg.....
It was simply delicious yummy yummy yummy....

P/s: actually she take d food frm my mil... Lol...

Wat Tan Ho .. D Loh Mee way...

I seldom eat Wat Tan Ho in KL ..
n sometimes my friends say that I am very cocky.
Coz I always say that Wat Tan Ho in KL is not good ...
They fried the keow teow first then they make the gravy and pour on top of it..
Some even worst, they fried the kuew teow earlier and store in a big bowl.
... of course this is to reduce the lead time......
so the taste is not good...

so I rather order hokkien mee, fried kuow teow.. n others...

Last time there is a restaurant that sell a very delicious Wat Tan Ho in Ipoh ...
n you have to wait at least 1~1.5 hours for it..
Actually the cooking lead time is long and there are too many customers...
They cook the kueow teow together with the gravy.. not just pour the gravy on top of the kuew teow..
We call it the Loh Mee style....
so 1.5 hours is not surprising.... my wife is always complaint about the long waiting time..
She rather eat others stuff.... eventhough it so delicious ..
Welll ...... "A hungry woman is an angry woman"....
so the wise saying of "Do Not Feed the woman full until she reaches 80" is not true..
if you do not feed her .. you might not even can last for the night.. LOL.....

Ok back to the wat tan ho restaurant....
I am not sure what happened but they had change to a new concept...
It more towards to modern Kopitiam style....previously it is just an ordinary chinese restaurant shop...
More varieties serving chicken chop, sandwishes to fried mee.....
The sad thing is that it is Pork Free restaurant.. so there is always something missing in their wat tan ho....
Besides that my dad always complain that their plain water cost RM0.50.... that is rediculuous..
LOL...

d wat tan ho... it only comes in a std size (1 person) ...

last time u could order for 3, 4 or 5 persons....

So if you have 3 person, you need to order 3 bowls..

it is not cheap .. i think it is RM8++ for a bowl...

Others - dry fried kuew teow n fried bihun is also very good...

I miss the old style..........

Feel like going back to Ipoh this weekend for some good food.. lol

Is Weekend ..........

Work was pretty hectic these few days..
N I expected to be busier in this coming week which will last for another few months..

As predicted that this year is going to b a tough year for me..
I think as long as you work hard and be cautious .... you should b able to overcome any type of obstacles..
Welll .. lets not talk about work ...

Weekend is here... my wife is traveling to JB today and will spend a night over there...
hmmmm kinda miss her ...

as usual I will go for my morning jog at Taman Tun to refresh myself.
I feel good when I run ... it clear up my mind n of course to get rid off a few kgs...........

After that I went to SS2 market to get soya bean drink...
There is 2 options of sugar .. white sugar n brown sugar..
Normally i will take the brown sugar .. tastier and more aroma...
so far it is the best soya bean drink that i ever tasted in KL (other than the ipoh funny mountain)...
It is cheap n d amount is a lot......
Well I think you seldom find this combination in PJ...
as i always believe that the food in PJ is always expensive...

That is why there is always a lot of ppl buy from him..... cheap n big quantity...

RM1.00 for a small packet and RM1.20 for a big packet ..

1 big packet could fill up 3 mug..

After that I went back home and clean up the house and do some laundry..
ooo . to my surprise my wife had finihsed the laundry ....muakss muakksss...

Then I rest for awhile and downloaded a good ipad game..
I played till noon and later went to Puchong to collect my house rent.......

Suddenly i am craving for Klang popiah ... :)
Reached there about 1.00pm.. as usual Eng Ann Hawker center is always full of people..

I ordered 2 pcs of popiah, a bowl of rojak mee n cendol........

d popiah is only cost RM1.50/pc...

Inside the popiah got  "Chu Yau Char", lap cheong n yun cheong as well...

Good! 2 thumbs up..

Mamak Rojak...

Taste is OK...I prefer PJ's Mee Rojak...

Not so much activity in the afternoon........ gee I miss my wife....

whats app her for awhile...

soon I doze off ............ 

then at 5pm my friend sms say that there is big debate showdown between Pg Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng vs MCA President Chuah Soi Lek... LOL.......

It was live at Astro n I did not subsribe Astro.. sighhhh .....

Then my wife whats app me that it also live @ 988...
