Garden of Eden

One little step, a big leap to save our Mother earth.

The lights will stay off for one hour for an event called Earth Hour. The observance is organized by a conservation group, the World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as the World Wildlife Fund.

For the fourth year, people are being urged to turn off their lights for one hour to call attention to the issue of climate change. The group says climate change is one of the greatest threats facing wildlife and nature.

Earth Hour has done a lot to raise awareness of climate change issues. But there’s more to it than switching off lights for one hour once a year. It’s all about giving people a voice on the future of our planet and working together to create a sustainable low carbon future for our planet.

Final Fantasy X2
Every FFX2 fans definitely will vote for this songs. This is one of the famous song in this Final Fantasy X2. When the very first time i exposed to this song, it has become one of the permanent song in my play list. I like the way how the singer sing this song. Kumiko Kōda was the singer for this theme and she gained fame for her seventh single, "Real Emotion / 1000 no Kotoba". Currently she is the top pop singer in Japanese. Thanks to this song, now i really get addicted to most of her songs.. -.-"

Sweet Sour Pork. . . .
My favourite dishes among all the Chinese Cuisine,
Why i like this dishes, I'm not really sure. But the only little tiny memories that i remembered about this dishes is my grandpa. This is the only dishes that he taught me while he was still with us. . .
All the little tiny single tips about this dishes i still remembered clearly. Every times he cooked , he definitely will compare his dishes with outside food proudly, and also start his life experience stories. . . . . i really miss those precious moments that i spent with my grandpa. .

sweet sour pork, i don't dare to compare mine with my grandpa's. I still never and ever to imitate and able to compare to the original taste. But I'll try my best to make it as perfect as i could and I won't let this recipe went silent in my life.

The only two pictures i took during this Chinese New Year. Since i came here nearly two years, this was the only time that i cook this dishes. It's hard to get all the sufficient ingredient for this dishes here.

Fried Rice. . . .
Fried rice. . . . hmmm . . . cook this while I feel lazy and out of any idea for my meal . Fried rice is the easiest dishes for me, it save up times for you to think what you going to prepare and cook.
While preparing this dishes, the only thing you need to know is go and find all the available cooking ingredients inside your refrigerator. Anything that you like, vegetable, meat, process food and bla bla bla . . .
White rice. Hmmm. normally those overnight rice is better than the fresh cooked rice, because it not sticky and easier to fried.
Prepare the base ingredients like onion and garlic (no ginger please), fried will brown then start "throwing" in the ingredients one by one. Meat/chicken > rice > vegetables > seasoning > done ^^
If all the ingredient well prepared, this dishes spend only 5 - 10 min to finish. Fast easy and simple especially while i'm super duper hungry. ^^
Mix vegetables with some process food - hotdog. .

Looks dark but not salty actually, because dark soy sauce was the only seasoning ingredient i added.

Fried Shark Fin. . . .
I'm not sure whether here got such dishes or not . Because i remembered while i 1stly introduce it to my friends at here, The very first comment and response from them were,"Har !? Fried Shark Fin ? are you serious? i thought it only cook in soup. How it tastes like ? "
I'm quite surprise while hearing that and really don't know how to explain at that time..... -.-"

Yes, I'm serious fried shark fin, it is a famous food in my hometown - Sibu or should i say famous in east Malaysia. It taste just gorgeous, the shark fin fried with grounded pork, egg, little green onion and also others ingredients like mushroom, onionSSSS and bla bla bla . . . (omg. . . start mouth watering...****)

About the method, precook the grounded meat and mushroom. After that, all the ingredients including precook materials all mixed into the egg (of cause shark fin is the most important one ^^) , mix well with some sesame oil and salt added (never ever add chicken stock or other strong seasoning stuff. It will spoil the original taste).
All the put in the non stick pan fried until dry. ( a little like fried Mee).

The one that i cooked while I'm still at my hometown.

and this!!!! while I'm celebrated my Chinese New Year in Cheras for year 2010 with my fellow friends. .
