Homemade Wheat Bread

Ray and I started to have more healthy food since beginning of the year 2010.
We tried to eat well at home as a habit.
From drinks to snacks to main course we try to make sure everything is OK. low calorie, high fibre. Ofcoz, sometimes, we do give ourself some excuses to have some sinful food :P

One day, we were shopping at Abela supermarket, Etihad Plaza, Abu Dhabi and i was looking the bakeries grocery.
Ray said : hey what are you looking for?
I said : erm, was thinking to bake some wheat bread, but i dont have the bread machine, unless somebody willing to help me do the kneading and punching process.
Ray said : so, the 'somebody' - are you refering to me?
Immediately i said : yes. hahaha.
Ray said : ok. let's do it!

So, i have bought the ready mix wheat bread flour.
Ray made it and the breads were good...

Since we are successful for the 1st homemade bread, we decided to go for 2nd homemade bread. This time, we bought the raw material and mix it by ourself.

Here is the recipe that i think it is working!

Ingredients :
1 cup warm H2O
1/4 cup skimm milk (2 tbsp skim milk powder in warm water)
2 tbsp sunflower seed oil
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp sea salt
1-1/2 cup all purpose flour
1-1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 tsp instant active dried yeast

Step 1 : Mix all and stir well
Step 2 : Add all purpose flour and whole wheat flour + Yeast. Knead for 15 min. rest for 40 min
Step 3 : Punch down and place in a pan - rest 30 min in a warm place (no a/c room)until it become double of the size.
Step 4 : Preheat the oven to 175 deg C, Bake for 30 min.
(Lay a piece of foil on top to avoid the burning on the surface)


Tang tang tang tang....

想家

这几天心情有点down.
总是觉得我们要好好把握自己的人生和创造人生。
要好好地为自己的家人打算，为自己和另一半负责任。
想家。想家人。
想家里的小朋友们。

懊恼自己没办法在家人身旁给予帮助和安慰。
生气自己为何身处5000公里外。

现在只能默默的祈祷。
希望所有家人一切安好。

The making of transformer 3...

I was in Chicago two weeks ago.
Walking alone at the Chicago city.
Saw the film making - Transformer 3 at the Wacker street!
The crew is chasing all the pedestrian and i manage to take a few pictures.

青峰侠预告片

我不是周董的粉丝，但我不否认他的才华和魅力。他的作品总会让我找到一点惊喜。
今天一打开新浪，完全是周董青峰侠的头条。
看看预告片，嗯，我在期待这部电影。。。

GoLALAgo 杜拉拉

不小心上网看了《杜拉拉升职记》，还不错。

为什么说不小心呢？平日我还真不爱看中国电影，但这片有莫文蔚，和徐静蕾，就看看咯。

老徐好可爱，听说还是个才女，自导自演，加分！

不错的故事，很贴切一般百领女性的工作和爱情故事。

可惜，我没有在企业上班。

有点怀念有办公室的上班时光。

Karen的角色比较普遍。

我预想不到黄立行的魅力。

开始有点喜欢这种ABC样的男孩，有种不羁的感觉。

微博

自从小学开始阅报后，娱乐版是我每天一定要读的。

好的，我承认，因为有我们这些八卦读者，才有狗仔的出现。

科技发达，除了费事簿，香港台湾大陆都用微博。

当然，明星艺人们也开始在微博的世界活跃起来。

除了减少狗仔的追逐之外，也可以拉进和粉丝的距离。

在好奇心的屈驾之下，我也来开一个新浪微薄。

不懂这些微博是不是有艺人们自己操作，但也可以满足我的8卦心。

至少我可以看到言程旭。哈哈哈！

‘男x女’轮流转

我好友告诉我，她失恋了。
听了，我好心痛。
她说，原因是感情淡了，男友说她不够浪漫。
真奇怪，我还是头一回听男人说女人不浪漫。
男人不是总是说，浪漫是要用钱制造的吗？
不浪漫= $
浪漫= $$$$$$$$$
这男人真奇怪。
我对好友说，恭喜她，因为这次的分开可以让她遇见一个更爱她，更适合她的人。
因为她啊，又聪明又漂亮。。。
我为她先上满满的祝福。。。

亲爱的，要快乐，要幸福啊！！！

Summer summer..

Summer is on its way...
Sosososo humid today.

快乐=漂亮

我总觉得，快乐的人总是漂亮的，大概是好心情分泌出的荷尔蒙作怪吧！
回来阿布扎比，我变丑了。。。

虚伪的赞美

有时候觉得自己很虚伪。
明明人家不可爱，不漂亮却要赞美他们-- 好像我的室友和小孩。
然后才为自己说的谎话来惭愧。
给人家带来高兴却换自己的讨厌。
但幸好我对自己在乎的人都不撒谎。
我现在开始不要随便赞美别人了。

快乐原来是那么容易的。。

今天有开心。

收到了UNICEF送来的邮件。
告诉关于海地小朋友们的消息。
想不到看着小朋友天真的笑容时会给我那么大的快乐。
阿弥陀佛。

健康便当-寿司

材料：红萝卜，肉干，日本白米饭，三文鱼

（一） 把米饭核材料放进寿司模型里。

（二）饭团从模型倒出来，再用寿司竹帘把饭团压得更结实。

（三）切成一小段

（四）加上芥末合紫彩点缀就可以了。

这应该是我的白老鼠隔天的午餐便当，但他忍不住马上就吃了。

白老鼠的评语： 很好看好吃，但其实不怎么结实，要再练习练习。

看来我还得去上寿司课才行。

健康又好吃的三文鱼

农历新年过了，很努力地想把身上多余的脂肪甩掉。再加上柠檬的胆固醇远远超标！所以我们决定节食，开始好好对待身体。听了医生的劝告和在网上收集了很多资料，就开始购买健康的食物，低糖，低盐，低脂肪。


周末，柠檬就弄了个三文鱼排。一级棒！

三文鱼排300克
大葱1颗
笋15支
马铃薯1颗
白菇3颗
小番茄8颗
小萝卜8颗


小火用橄榄油将三文鱼排煎至熟，再将马铃薯和小萝卜煎熟，最后在把其余的材料用大火炒熟即可。其间可洒一些黑胡椒粉调料。

锵锵锵锵。。。

很好吃！

在国外看华文报

在国外，华文报成了宝贝。

一份过期的报纸看了又看，摸了又摸，还要老公三天两天就问我可以不要了吗才丢。

重点是这份娱乐版除了小天，还有言程旭！

我的天！好想把它弄成像小学上华文课时的剪报贴！

新年，要快乐啊！

真的不敢相信自己的懒惰，更不敢相信时间的流逝。

今天是2010年的第一个星期了。

因为种种的理由和借口，天使好几个月没有说话了。。。

哈哈，懒惰+忙碌。。。

在过去的两个月里，我到了5个国家，最短的逗留3天，最长的达16天。

累昏了！

我也在过去的两个月里，再次感到生死离别的痛苦。

所以新的一年，没有什么大愿望，只愿家人朋友健康，平安和幸福。

m&m说：新年快乐！

（超爱这个m&m装饰，慑于拉斯维加斯m&m专卖店，超可爱。）
