As usual, Sunday is always a day of coupon shopping and marketing. Our itinerary was to go to CVS & Walgreens to grab for good deals, marketing at Yue Mei and KTV session @ YY's house.
We woke up 8am, had our breakfast at home, borrowed car from yy & headed to CVS then to Walgreens. That's was kinda early rite! So Kaisu hor!No choice ley... got to grab the promotion items before they ran out of stock. I paid $0.22 (CVS) and $1.96 (Walgreens) after coupons & in returned i got $15 (CVS) & $7 (Walgreens) extra bucks. So satisfied! These are all the free stuffs:
As it was still early, we drove home and took an hour rest. While waiting for yy to get ready for marketing, i plan for the next week menu (subject to changes):
Sun - Handmade noodles aka Mee Hoon Kueh
Mon - Spaghetti in tomatoes sauce and cheese
Tue - Steam fish roll & baby bok chay
Wed - pipa tofu & roast chicken fermented red bean curb/ curry chicken
Thur- Sambal fried rice
Fri - Mui Fan
For the sambal belacan paste (recipe here), I wanted to cook on my own instead of buying those prepacked paste. This is my first attempt, hope will turn out well! Hubby love spicy food so I can use this paste to cook with any type of curry dishes,chili dishes like seafood and vegetable... I spent $25 for this week's grocery.. kinda cheap rite!
We had a hard time searching for fresh red chillies, went to a few places also could not find. In the end, yy suggested to go India Bazzar... then found it. They were in the frozen aisle only $0.79. Cheap!
After back from marketing, I started to prepare our dinner - Mee Hoon Kuey (recipe here). This is a kinda easy dish but needed lots of work to knead the dough. It took me an hour to complete it. My hands were super tired. To take a rest, we went over to yy's place for a 2hours KTV session. Hubby sang mostly songs from Li Shen Jie & Tao Ze (his favourite) for me mostly from Fish Leong and Zhang Hui Mei.
After KTV ended, i started preparing the noodle soup base. The soup was easy. By the time, we finished our dinner was already 9.30pm le. We watched 1 episode of the HK drama then hubby went to bed at 11.30pm. I was on the internet till 1am.
