This year, Hubby and I agreed not to have a big "hoo-hah" on Valentines Day because I felt we spent a lot for our Kayelle trip. And also, I am still very happy about the
present he gave me for my birthday so no complaining here! =P
However, Hubby didn't know I have loads of stuffs planned for him. which it's only two by the way. To those who know me, would probably know that I do not go to the kitchen. EVER. I don't like all the fuss in the kitchen. Hee.. but, I do enter the kitchen occasionally if I NEED to. Say, when I am hungry enough?
A lot of girls would probably cook Western or Japanese cuisine for their loved ones. A super duper Good choice I tell you! Asian cuisine is the hardest to cook of them'all!! Hubby loves Asian cuisine partially because his family are great cooks. Why oh Why..
So, I figured there are sooo many cookbooks lying around my house, so why not if I try two of them? Mom helped me with the raw ingredients as I am very lost in markets. I would go with her but I don't know how to haggle the price and all. Hee hee.
These two are the dishes I cooked for hubby!
Not bad eh?? It is Sweet and Sour pork and Pandan Chicken!
I am soo proud of myself!! Cause frankly, even my mom doubt whether I can cook these two super hard dish!

The 1st picture is the dish I cooked and the 2nd picture is the picture from the cookbook! Same?? =P
First dish, suppose to be Pandan Seafood but ending up to be Pandan Chicken cause I ran out of fish!
This dish is super hard to do I tell you. I spent hours prepping up this dish! All the blending, mixing .. not to mention the turmeric powder (kunyit) ! My nails are stained now due to the yellow. And and.. it's my first time dealing with all raw, very RAW ingredients. Fish, Squids, Prawns, and Chicken. All slimy ingredients. Sighs. All I do for Love.
Next dish, Sweet and sour Pork.
This dish I think has a better outcome. Taste better too! Don't really look the cookbook's picture but oh well, it's my first time cooking Asian food. Hubby compliment loads about my dishes. He is very proud of me too! Worth all my hard work. *phew*
Apart from that, I also made a video of Hubby and I! This is because I would always keep the movie tickets of the movies we watched together. I know, very weird right? But if you just started on a relationship, I suggest you should keep them. To remind you how much you have spent only on watching movies! Hahaha.. just joking.
Anyway, I saw a pile of movie tickets there and I figured I want to do something creative with it. So, this is the outcome! Enjoy! Be sure to hang in there till 2:22 yea? Cause it might get boring in the middle.
Just for Vday purpose only. =P
What hubby gave me you asked? Tee hee.. Something sweet for sure! A lovely rose and a homemade card. Haven't took a picture yet. I soo miss his hand made cards. Very sweet and genuine.
So, that's all folks! I hope you enjoyed Valentines Day whether your single or in a relationship! Mwahs mwahs!
Loads of love,
HuiLing.
