Yes, I've been MIA again!! I'm down with flu since last week. I think I had too much baking and I was baking those puff pastry at more than 200 degrees. Breathing in those hot air and tasting those still-hot-from-the-oven pastry gave me sore throat. Then Zhi's runny nose past on to me. And I still went to gym last friday with all these symptoms. Eventually everything just came on together.
You asked me why so crazy about baking> Well, the reason is I was trying to finish up my flour and other baking ingredients before I leave for my US trip next Tuesday (29th April). I didn't want to leave those baking supplies to be kept in the cupboard for too long and to find little bugs inside the flour when I come back two weeks later (10th May). So instead of wasting it, I decided to bake.
So now, with a sore throat and a blocked nose, I am banned from baking by WF. He told me not to get over crazy about these supplies. But I just thought that since we need to eat breakfast and food prices had been going up especially wheat and rice related products, I might as well bake. See... trying to save money on food items, end up spending money on medications!
But with the Ah-Q mentality, I thought its better to be sick now then when I'm in US. That'll make the trip so unenjoyable!
Ok, other "events" happening in my otherwise boring life: We're moving to a new place. Finally! After more than a year of searching and viewing so many projects. We're going to settle in Pebble Bay in June. More updates on this.
Third "busy bee business", I'm quickly finalizing our US trip itinerary. And now I left those packing to be done. I'm getting so excited about this trip. More details on this before I depart.
Okie dokie... Its back to work for me. School's reopen and I'm back to teaching and grading the poly students. So no time to gossip... its back to grading the students work! Ciao...
