Two Food Blogs
Interesting Food Blogs. Take a peek.

Blog 01
Blog 01
This lady has 2 BLOGs about food
A mummy with 3 lovely teenage kids and a lovable husband. Growing up in a family where Nyonya granny and mum who are good cooks gives me lots of opportunity to learn to perfect my cooking skills. I enjoy cooking a non-fuss (fast and easy) meal and creating A Happy Meal on the dining table for my family.
Blog 01-01
Meals Unite Family ~ A simple and easy Asian home cook dishes...
Blog 01-02
Lazy Mum - Yummy Bites ~ Easy, Simple N Good to Eat
Sample entry:
Hmmmm, Yum! Yum! I just love my grandma's homemade fish otak otak or some sort of spicy fish mousse. I have "inherited" the recipe from my mum and enjoy making it for the family. It taste great as compared to those commercial ones found in the frozen corners. The great difference between home cooked and commercial ones are the wonderful aroma of banana leaf and daun kaduk when it is cooked. It is a great appetizer. Otak Otak is one of the Nyonya dishes served either wrapped in small package form with banana leaf or can be served in a tray with the banana leave underlining it. I am not good in wrapping, so I took the alternative choice of steaming in a tray. (read on)

Indian Vegetarian Food
Ami's Vegetarian Delicacies
I am a small time home cook, whose passion for cooking was ignited when I was 12 years old. Since then I have embarked in this culinary journey, drawing inspirations from my mom's scrumptious cooking, watching TV cook-shows, reading cook books and experimenting in my kitchen. It evolved into a blog, when I moved to Malaysia and tried to keep myself meaningfully occupied during my spare time as I was not permitted to work under the Malaysian regulations. Now blogging and sharing healthy food information has more or less become my full time passion. I hope that I too can be a popular chef one day! Bless your child Abi Dear God!

Samoa ~ Switch Traffic from Right to Left-Hand Side of Roads
.
Samoa (a Pacific island nation) has done something no country has tried in current times. On 7 Sep 2009, Monday morning, drivers in Samoa steered their cars to the left-hand side of roads, instead of the right-hand side they were formerly driving on. Vehicles which are right-hand driven will be more suited to driving on the left-hand side of roads. There's definitely going to be some teething problems. The government has reasoned the change to be economically beneficial, but critics say it will lead to a huge traffic mess.
I believe that in time to come, they'll get used to it.

He seem to have a positive attitude to life. Has a lot of self motivation and able to pick himself up, dust of the dirt & plan the next strategy to achive his now modified goal. Definitely and enjoyable and uplifting read. Thanks for sharing your life.

Guitaresque ~ Classical Guitar Quartet (Singapore)
http://guitaresque-singapore.blogspot.com/
.JPG)
.JPG)
Guitaresque is a Singapore-based non-professional classical guitar quartet. All our members are full-time working professionals but have come together because of our shared passion for guitar music.We are alumni members of the NUS Guitar Ensemble (GENUS), the premier Niibori-styled guitar orchestra in Singapore, founded by Mr Alex Abisheganaden.Guitaresque won the first prize and second prize (ensemble) in the 2004 and 2001 Singapore Guitar Festival Competition respectively.
A word from the quartet:
Four musicians trading ideas while carrying a tune, each providing his own senses and ideas. Together, the quartet paints a beautiful image of the Baroque landscape…
If you think that sounds like a description of a typical string quartet, you are possibly right.
If you think that sounds like a description of a typical string quartet, you are possibly right.
Well… not really.
Not many classical music lovers here in Singapore are familiar with the sight of a classical guitar (CG) quartet — 4 classical guitars playing in an ensemble, ala the string quartet. Guitaresque is such a quartet — and we are 100% made-in-Singapore.
Guitaresque members are Shu Hann, Ivan, Alex and Kevin. We are a group of CG lovers, who have been playing together for the past 8 years though none of us are actually full-time musicians by profession. Instead, we have found time amidst our busy working schedules to meet on a weekly basis, not so much to practice and rehearse a repertoire, but more to be with friends who share a similar passion in guitar music.

Nellie Tan ~ An Inspiration To 'Beat Cancer'
http://beatcancer10.blogspot.com/
http://www.parkwaycancercentre.com/healthnews/english/January2009/004_newsandevents_healthnews_2009_jan1.htm
Nellie Tan, 42, had just returned from a short getaway in 2006 when she felt a slight discomfort in her stomach.
The doctor suspected urinary tract infection, and Nellie, an executive secretary in a bank, didn't think much about it.
Then, things got worse.
"It started with a cramp attack, which lasted for about 10 minutes," she recalls. "I was unable to move, felt faint and broke out in a cold sweat."
A week later, she had another attack.
Nellie consulted a gynaecologist. An ultrasound scan revealed a 10-cm tumour overlapping her right ovary. Additional scans confirmed that the tumour was likely to be cancerous.
It was a day she will never forget.
"The doctor asked that we consider immediate surgery to remove not just the ovaries but also the fallopian tubes and the womb – a total hysterectomy!" she recalls.
"My mind was spinning. How could this be?" she adds. "Just three weeks ago, I was enjoying the cool mountain air of beautiful Cameron Highlands. Now, I'm in the clutches of cancer."
Despite her emotional turmoil, Nellie agreed to the surgery at once, and she was rolled into the operating theatre the next day. It went smoothly, but tests revealed she had stage 3 cancer.
She was given a 30 per cent chance of survival.
Finding hope
At the same time, Nellie's husband George Lee came across a book that "changed their lives".
Written by the medical director of Parkway Cancer Centre and senior consultant medical oncologist Dr Ang Peng Tiam, it was titled "Doctor, I have cancer. Can you help me?"
During a period when they desperately needed strength, Dr Ang's book – filled with hope and information on how even the most aggressive cancers can be stopped from spreading and perhaps even cured – provided it.
"The book put it all together for me, from what others have had to go through to what expectations I should carry with me as I walked down this warpath," says Nellie.
"I was going to try to be as positive as I could and if mind over matter had anything to do with it, I would give it a good try!" she remembers telling herself.
They went to Dr Ang and Nellie started chemotherapy. The next three months proved to be draining and filled with sleepless nights, but she remained positive and emerged from her sixth and last chemotherapy session relieved and excited, eagerly anticipating the final results of the treatment.
On 16 June, 2006, as Nellie and hubby held hands in front of Dr Ang, he revealed her PET scan results: Her cancer was in full remission.
Sharing her strength
Remembering how the book and experiences of others gave them hope, Nellie and George started a cancer blog titled "Beating Cancer Now!: 10 Things We Did Right".
Their blog can be found at http://beatcancer10.blogspot.com/
The project, kicked off in part to give her something to focus on during her chemotherapy days, also aims to get women to "listen to their body" and help others hit with ovarian cancer know that it's not the end of the world.
And when she was asked to appear on Channel NewsAsia's "A Journey of Hope" – a television programme on cancer survivors – last year, Nellie agreed.
"After watching the episode in full, I was glad I plucked up the courage," she says.
"The message on ovarian cancer must be told to more women. Only with an increase in awareness, can this insidious cancer be minimised, if not stopped."
Since then, Nellie has gone on to scale new heights, including climbing the Great Wall of China with her mother and her sister – also a cancer survivor – by her side.
She also quit her banking job and started her own business, a childcare centre, in April 2007. She now runs two branches, and loves her work and the 150 children under their care.
Three years on, Nellie says the cancer chapter has taught her to appreciate life, living it to the full and without fear.
"It has made me stronger as a person because there is nothing in this world that I cannot tackle if I can fight cancer," she says. "Even if a relapse were to happen, I will simply continue to stay strong and positive to fight it again."
