We didn’t do much this long weekend. Just stay home and rest, eat, and play. We went home to see mom in P.Klang, I made her two bracelets for mother’s day. She was very happy. Bb had great time with his cousins after such long time. He even said he doesn’t want to go home. *shake head*.
Later we stopped by at this “Ba-Kut-Teh” near the old Rex cinema in Port Klang. It was okay la to me but hubby loves this particular shop. The owner’s name is “Ah Chai”. His shop does not have a signboard, Hah! So no name. What is special about his Ba-Kut-Teh is he has added dry fried sotong (calamari) inside the soup; it makes the soup smell and taste good. However, I think he has added a wee bit too much of Ajinomoto. Bb was there with us for the first time. Usually we leave him with mom but this time round, he wanted to come along. I grabbed some “Kaya Kok” beside the Ba-Kut-Teh shop. Just love it; the skin is so crispy and fragrant. Bb had a few bites too during teatime with me at home.
For dinner, I cooked some Spaghetti in Olive Oil, garlic and dry chilies at home. Daddy loves it but he cannot really take spicy, so I have to reduce the chilies portion.

Meanwhile bb had his porridge I cooked earlier for him. Later, hubby and me played parachutes (Flipping the blanket up and down and let him catch) and read two of his favourite books before urging him to sleep. He had been a good boy.

You can use to cook egg, it looks very nice. If one day cook one egg, sure can finish one.

I love the smell of Olive Oil.

I only take it once in a while, love it too but not too often, very fattening.
