Asia

I sounded out my MIL about us thinking of going back to Asia…. since the economy .. and the workers we have are anal.. and i really do miss home too and the food of course..!! .
I know my in laws wouldn’t be too, too happy if we go back to Asia. For one thing.. i will be depriving them of their only grandchild .. and also their eldest son. I know my in-laws will miss both of them ALOT..!! and as much as i hate doing it……. we might just really have to go back to Asia for our sanity sake, for i cannot get over the fact.. that the EMPLOYEES are always right.. and protected by so many shitty laws here….. be it the Human Rights or Labour Codes. The employment laws are not FOR the employers.. that i can tell you. And I hate the fact.. that it seems that I’m always doing the fighting for the business. I feel very vulnerable here… ! I feel like my hands and legs are tied here.. with regards to our workers/customers.

BKT become BBQ

I bought some stewing pork on saturday from the supermarket…. and had intended to make Bak Kut Teh with mushrooms but i ended up BBQing it in my oven and had BBQ stewing pork instead..and it tasted really good.. 🙂 Next time i see cheap stewing pork.. i will buy that instead…. 😉
And that lead me another idea.. to get Lee Kum Kee’s Char Siew Sauce….. when someone is up in the city for my chinese food. Yay!! i’m a genious..!!
