Fruit Salad

Introducing the world's healthiest salad!!!!!
The  KIWI APPLE SALAD with GREEK YOGURT DRESSING!!!

My Salad & I !! =)

WOW, it sounds so amazing and it looks amazing too!
This amazing square salad can be made in 5 minutes!
Yeah, you didn't see wrongly, only 5 minutes!

Basically, use 1 apple, whatever type of apples, but I am using Granny Smith apple, no particular reason just so happened
Cut the apple into cubes, you can either eat with the skin or without
But if you do not intend to peal the skin for whatever reasons (for me, it is simply just because lazy =P), make sure you wash the apple with water
As we all know, PESTICIDE!!
Then put into the jar/bottle at the base!

Next, dice the kiwi!
For kiwi, I dare not to eat the skin!! (i tried but i don't like the taste of it!)
You can also eat with the skin but again wash it!
If you want to remove the skin like me, the easiest and laziest way is halved the kiwi and  using a spoon to scoop the "flesh" out
It takes less than 30 seconds for this
If not, if you are a professional in using knives or have plenty of time preparing food (I am always in a rush!)
You can literally slice the kiwi
Anyway, at the end the product will be small cubes/ slices of kiwi and put them on top of the apples

Fruit salad! =)

Look so CUTE! 

Actually, you can also make it the other way round, put the kiwi first then apple, either way is okay, depends on the individual
For me, I like the juice of kiwi, so when I put it in the top layer, the juice will go to the bottom (due to gravitational force, haha! physics! )
So the apples will also taste a bit like a kiwi as apples soak in kiwi juice!

Last step!!
For fruit salad, I don't feel like using salad dressing, it just taste a bit..... (Don't know how to explain!)
Putting Greek yogurt has been the best choice I ever made!
For me, I didn't use low-fat Greek yogurt, is quite difficult to find low-fat Greek yogurt in Malaysia!
Anyone knows where can I get it? Comment below!
Greek yogurt is different from normal yogurt
It is not that watery! It tastes more like ice cream!! which is my favorite!
Plus, when it is mixed with the fruits, they turned out to be sweet!
See, SAVE CALORIES + HEALTHY = LOSS WEIGHT

Ha-ha, I am brilliant can form equation like this! (others: is this girl crazy?)
Lalala, whatever!

Finally, here comes the......... SALAD!

Chocolate Bananas!

I  <3 BANANAS!!! Although many said it is fattening!

But, who cares! 

In subang, I didn't manage to eat them because I usually cannot finish a comb!

So, since I am in JB, why not?

I have 4 people to share together!! haha

hmm... but eating plain bananas also quite BORING!

what can we do with BANANAS?

oh ya, chocolate BANANAS!!! 

BANANAS coat with CHOCOLATE!! OMG, it must be TASTY! 

Alright, what do we need? 

3 ingredients! 

you can get your delicious chocolate bananas in these few steps! SO EASY! SO SIMPLE!

why 30 minutes pass so LONG? 

Maybe 3 tablespoons of butter?? 

maybe more than 5? Depends on your microwave oven! =)

you can use a spoon to scope the chocolate!

i love this steps the most!!

so COLOURFUL!! =P

hmm... i freeze it for about 2 hours! 

Then, here comes the most DELICIOUS, TASTY, MOUTH-WATERING................

CHOCOLATE BANANAS!!!!!

Besides, rainbow rice, you can also add cashew nuts, chocolate chips, almond..... etc.

oh ya, the best will be a scope of VANILLA ICE CREAM! 

Hurray!! =P

Precious thought 1

Hurray! This is my 4th time joining this event!

Initially, I didn't plan to come back so my dad decided to bring my sis this year

My sis haven't have the chance to join this event 

Because they sell the ticket for 2 people per ticket 

Wonder how I manage to enter? Shh.... Secret! 

Anyway, I still manage to join! So HAPPY!

Hahaha, my heart was filled with joy when I saw those cute, amazing figure!

I took tons of photons using my samsung s3 !!

Because my sis was holding the DSLR but the photos are very clear too!

I utterly like their Disney series figure! So CUTE!

I love them so much! I took photos from different angles!

Btw, all these are only for lucky draw prizes, cannot be purchased! So sad!

I also don't know why my dad & I are so obsess in all these figures!

I hope I can have all these! Same to my dad!

But mummy said "don't buy too many! At home got a lot already!"

Haiz....

FRUIT PARADISE @ RAFFLES CITY

Dessert time!!!!

After Japanese dinner, let's try Japanese fruit tarts!

We went back to Raffles as we parked our car there!

I always wanted to try this fruit tart, and today I finally have the chance!

The shop named FRUIT PARADISE!

So, it is selling tarts!

Also, pasta and tea, drinks! :)

The deco is so cute! 

You can see many tart miniature around the shop!

So cute! So colorful! 

The deco is really amazing!

Even the MENU is COLORFUL!

  

We only ordered 2 tarts

Because we are really very full! No more extra space for it!

This is sort of crepe cake! Very SPECIAL!

Can u imagine? Crepe tart? 

I had this! Actually, is shared!

Everyone knows, I love CHOCOALATE!

It is really delicious! 

It is a good place to hang out with friends, family... GOSSIP!

Nice environment, the price is quite reasonable!

I would recommend you to have high tea here!

SUN JAPANESE DINING @ chijmes

After  Precious Thought event, we are tired and hungry (a hungry man is an angry man!)

Sort of sick of the food in Raffle City, so decided to go to opposite to try something new!
Opposite = chijmes!

basically, chijmes is still under renovation!
many shops closed down! so, we left not many choices!
after walking there and there (Deciding what to eat)
We ended up in a Japanese Dinning Restaurant AGAIN!!
*I told you, my family like Japanese, Korean, Western & Chinese cuisine!

 

Anyway, this is really more high-class and better environment!

Besides, we also ordered salmon Saba Teri steak, kani tamago Tojo, kurobuta shogayaki, tare buta Bon......

After dinner, why not have some sweet thing? So here comes.....

There are 5 different types of cheese cakes 

Plus, a sweet jam in the center! 

Mouth-watering!!

However, the price is a bit high 

for us, 5 people, the bill cost around SGD 250 (which means you cannot have this everyday!)

But, daddy said it worth it! 

Comparing the Japanese food I had yesterday..... BIG DEFERENCE!

Chewy junior @ raffles city

My family like to eat all these so called "eat for fun" food!

We bought 2 boxes of these! 

Obviously, different flavor! 

Maybe of tomorrow breakfast?

But, we finish 3 in the car! Haha, we still have space to eat!

Actually, before dinner, I had one as a snack!

I bought the chocolate caramel!

It is sweet, but is fine for me!

I have a SWEET TOOTH!

Basically, it is a bit like muffin, neither a bun nor doughnut 

It is filling and I love the topping!

There is a range for flavor for you to choose!

Friday in JB!

I think this collage is enough to sum up how I spent my Friday in JB!

I miss you guys a lot!

3 F : FRIENDS, FAMILY, FOOD!

I met up with sarah & liling @ Starbucks bukit Indah!

What we do? 

What can we do other than GOSSIP? Hahah, this proves that we are 100% girls!

Talked a lot, we really miss our secondary school life!

Only 3 of us! The others busy with exams! ;)

Hope that time can travel back!

Our teachers, our friends, our school.....

But, we don't have chance anymore!

I bet this is what we need to sacrifice as we grown up! So SAD!

Yume@Nusa Bestari

At first we wanted to have Chinese cuisine, but full-housed
Maybe because today is a Friday!
Anyway, we ended up having our Friday lunch at a Japaneses restaurant near Nusa Bestari
it is named "YUME"

it is located opposite Uncle Jang

Basically, it provides set lunch promotions (means Bento set) and it is really cheap
A Bento set plus free-flow soft drink cost you around rm15. 90!
FYI, the Bento set is really big! Even I cannot finish! Can you imagine how big it is?

Bro & I have this for lunch!

  Hmm... Not very special, quite ok!

the gyoza is fried gyoza

This is what mummy and sis had for lunch!

The main reason they ordered is because this is the only Bento set which has sashimi!

btw, I <3 sashimi too!! 

Daddy ordered this! Not very nice, the beef they sliced too thick!  

Plus, this cost around rm20+ (this is not lunch Bento)

hmm... not worth it!

Generally, the food is edible, but nothing special!

it is cheap, so maybe if you just want to have a taste of Japaneses food, no harm trying!

ps: their wifi is pretty good and have tv! hahaha

ROSE TEA

I have a good sleep last night thanks to REGINA, my little rabbit bear!

I should take a photo with her and post it up!

Hahaha

Life is amazing when you are with ur family!

But, that doesn't mean I m not happy at subang jaya!

It just.... Hmm... Kind of hard to explain.... 

Okay, at subang, I have lots of freedom!

At home, I have daddy mummy sis & bro!

See, different!

Give and take!!

I was thing just now! Nothing do to!

Actually, I have tons of things waiting for me, but ignore it!

IT IS HOLIDAY! RELAX!!!!!

Then, my mum said "regine, that day I got other set of teapot set! Let's make some tea!"

And here comes the ROSE TEA!

I posted on my Instagram! Hahaha

Basically, we only put 3 ingredients : rose flower, darts and crystal sugar

We put about 20 roses, 10 red darts and a bit of crystal sugar

I only put a bit sugar because I don't want it to be too sweet!

Rose tea not only taste good but it is good for health too!

Rose flower itself is rich in vitamin c, remedy for irregular period and infertility, fight infection.....

Most importantly it has BEAUTY EFFECTS! As it is good for skin

 Opss! It should be "IRREGULAR" , I m lazy to change it! Hehe

Anyway, I total drink 2 cups of it and going to refill it again!

ROBINNA BAKERY @ NUSA bestari

A bakery + cake shop near my house!

Actually what's the difference between bakery and cake house?

Beats me! 

Someone claimed that bakery only sells bread and cake house only sells cakes

Anyway, I don't know!

Robinna is located very near to my house, about 5 minutes drive!

It is beside loudspeaker karaoke in nusa bestari!

I started buying bakery there since it opened! Maybe more than 5 years? Not sure!

The bread is fresh, delicious and it really worth the price!

Usually, I go there to buy my breakfast for the next day!

My sis & I used to purchase their cheese cake, butter cake, signature cake......

Of course, a variety of breads!

But, I m kind of sick of breads ( I have bread almost everyday in subang)

This time, I bought CAKES!

They have promotion buy 3 free 1 and a slice of cake cost rm4.50!

Cheesecake & fruit cake

Fruit cake

blasck forest cake & peanut cream cake!

peanut cream cake! 

Delicious & nice CAKES!

hope that one day I also can make them!! =) 

but, mummy said "BUY WILL DO!!" haha

Tea Garden

Back to JB!
Home SWEET Home!!
It takes about 4 hours to reach jb !
Finally meet my family! i miss them so much!

i went to JUSCO BUKIT INDAH which is pretty near my house, i stay in perling
Initially, we thought Jusco having sale, wanted to buy grocery, but ended up the sale starts tomorrow
Then, eventually we went for the tea @ Tea Garden
It is sort of kopitian (coffee shop) style of shop, it is quite famous of its nanyang kopi!
But personally, I like their white coffee more!
ANYWAY, THE DECO IS MUCH LIKE THOSE TRADITIONAL COFFEE SHOP!
This is not the first visit for me
My family and I always hang out here
Because it is considered quite cheap and it has a variety of food!

Since we are just having tea, we just ordered some snacks

Tea Garden Rojak  RM 7.30

I order this! Veg pan-cake with slice chicken  RM 4.80

Double boiled Barley with fungust (HOT) RM 5.80

This is really nice! it has BEAUTY effect! 

We still order other snacks like you tiao bakar with chicken floss and drinks!
Basically, it is more about local food! Malaysia food!
It also serves Western like pasta, baked rice, chicken chop, fish n chips.....
Of course, it is Halal !

For 4 of us, the total bill cost about RM40, quite ok!

PARTY TIME

When to this shop for lunch

I always wanted to pay a visit here but never had the chance because it opens at 12pm but my breaks usually fall at 11am

Plus, my classmates don't quite like to try new things

Anyway, I manage to come here today, after my last trial paper

Hurray!!! I have holiday for the next 2 days!

Back to the topic, I have come with my housemate today!

The shop is located near my college, Taylor's College subang jaya

It is at ss15, near Pizza Hut! 

I really like the decoration of the shop!

U can see PURPLE everywhere! And Purple is one of my favorite color 

Purple wallpaper, purple wall, purple cushion, purple chair

Basically the whole shop is using purple and white

Oh ya, there are chandeliers too, they literally make the shop cozy

*i m sorry, didn't manage to snap some shots of the shop

They have lunch set, actually is just free a drink

The price is pretty reasonable, a lunch set range around 8-12 ringgit which include a chicken/fish/mixed platter with rice plus a drink of your choice

I choose to have a butter garlic fish fillet plus a milk tea and they only cost me rm12

Fish, egg, side salad and rice !! 

The rice portion of quite big, I didn't finish the rice!

However, the fried fish fillet to me is a bit oily! But it is ok for my roommate!

Perhaps I m used to less oily food!

Original milk tea!

I like the milk tea, although I didn't mention less sugar, it is not very sweet!

If you really like 'milk' tea, I believed you sure will love it! 

You can literally taste the milk in it!

Btw, from this photo u can see a bit of the internal design of the shop!

Full of PURPLE! 

The other choice of drinks includes, plum juice, ice lemon tea and one more I forget already! Haha, getting older!

Good try! As I mentioned earlier, this is a lunch set but u can have the same thing for dinner! WITHOUT A FREE DRINK!

Besides, this shop actually sells a range of beverage, plus it have wifi!

Waffle also can be found, I don't know the taste, never tried before, perhaps next time?

A nice and comfortable place to hang out with friends!

Salad

Finally! I bought the salad dressing for about 3 weeks yet haven't used it yet!
SALAD!
When I was young, I hate veggies, I don't know why but it just taste.... SUCKS (no offend!)
Remember vividly, my mom even bought those veggie supplements which taste pretty good for me just because i don't take veggies
i think the only veggie i took was only onion, especially onion rings, I love onion and don't ask me why.
But now, I start to <3 it!

Salad basically is just mixing different types of fruit and veggies together
I searched on the internet and found something UNIQUE!
It is called SALAD IN A JAR.
Generally is putting your salad in a mason jar (or whatever container) and store it in the fridge
It is kind of off-you-go thing
You can just take a spoon and the jar with you
It is really convenient, especially for college students like me who are staying away from home and sick of outside food
Honestly, it really saves a lot of $$$$

Firstly, veggies and fruits are not really expensive, of course organic will cost you more but it really worth it
Secondly, it contained a lot of fiber, vitamins, protein..... In short, it is good for health
Thirdly, and this is the most important point for me...... LOSE WEIGHT!!!
Eating salad can cut off a lot of calories!
Basically, a jar of salad will only cost you less than 200 calories, depending what dressing you put
Btw, 200 calories is like eating 3 oreo biscuits! Can you imagine how low calories it is?
Oh yea, 200 calories don't include any meat contained in the salad
I don't put any form of meat in it
No any particular reason, just because the place I rented doesn't allow me to cook (what a lame reason)

Usually, I take a salad to replace one of my main meals of the day, usually is either breakfast or dinner
Lunch i will hang out with my college mate and it really sounds and looks weird when in a cafe everyone ordered and you BYO salad

I will be posting much more SIMPLE & EASY NO-COOK Salad recipes and photos in the future

Stay tune！

SIMPLE LIFE

New blog, new chapter, new beginning....
For temperately, my blog will be titled as SIMPLE LIFE!
Maybe will change in the future
Not sure yet, who knows what happens next time?

Sometimes, I wonder why is life? What life means?
i believed everyone wonder why are we studying, working, eating .......?
Eventually one day, we will die.
WE WILL DIE, yes, this is a fact.
But, what can we do and have before we die?
And here comes in all the elements : success, happiness, money, fame, popularity......

However, to me, i just want a SIMPLE LIFE.
How simple the life I wanted?
Basically, i just want HAPPINESS.
That really sounds SIMPLE right?
And usually, this is what 90% of the human beings on the earth wanted.
Yet, everyone is struggling to find happiness

According to DalaiLama, the purpose of our life is to HAPPY

What Happiness means?
Let me further explain, what the 90% of the humans and I mean by HAPPINESS.
HAPPINESS generally means happy, an experience of being happy
We always ask or hear others asking "Are you HAPPY?"



Different age level, we define happy very differently
For a baby, it feels happy when it has enough food, enough sleep
For a toddler, when they are satisfied with toys and fast food.
As they grow up, they wanted more and more
At  kindergarten, they want to have a lot of friends and praises from teachers to get happiness
When they enter primary schools, excellent results make them pleased
In secondary schools, they reach puberty and wanted to have good appearance, tons of friends, teachers' complement and most importantly they want to be popular.
See! As human beings, we need and want more and more things to be happy

For me, a 18-year-old college girl, my Happiness includes a long list of things:
1. excellent grades
2. dozens of friends
3. FREEDOM
4. Not being aLONE
5. be popular
6. Nice body shape
7. Newest gadget
8. Lovely parents (I have this! =P)
9. Fashionable
10. Of course $$$$$
i just randomly think about 20 seconds and i got 10 items!
How greedy am I???

So, is this a simple life? wanting a simple life is not easy at all!
