The day after our trip out to Kent,
we decided to stay in,
just so we could rest and potter about the garden and fields.
Lunch was home-cooked again!
Parma ham + asparagus + wasabi mayo
I tweeted pix of our lunch, and some asked which restaurant i was at.
Aunty Gerry was awfully chuffed
Couscous + grilled chicken
Cheeses, and ice cream cake to finish off!
Wilson with a Lat and penguin toy
After lunch, Yishyene and i hurried out to play on the trampoline all afternoon
LOVE lying down on the grass here!
Totally can’t do that in Msia cos i’ll end up with dirt and poo and start itching all over.
Aunt G. asked me to put my head next to the bush cos it looked like a flower.
I obliged.
fairy, RyanSoosay, Yishyene
My Uncle Mark and Aunty Gerry.
Don’t i look like the adopted colourful misfit child that got dumped there :p
Stepping on my aunty’s head haha
We walked across the road to the fields where the horses were kept.
Above is a pic of the house with Yishyene standing outside.
Inspecting slugs
Aunty G sitting on the stile
Petting the horses and feeding them polo mints
Yishyene thought it’d be funny to pet me -_-
My aunt took this picture of Yishyene and i while we were lying on the lawn in the evening,
trying to drink up as much sunlight as possible.
Aunty G: What are you two doing?! It’s 8 something at night! You two are crazy!
Us:
Aunty G: There’s dew on the ground! You’re going to get sick!
Us: No we won’t! *chorus*
Aunty G: Are you guys hungry? What do you want to eat?
Me: Ha… we kinda just finished lunch a couple of hours ago… 0_o
Aunty G: Maybe something light?
Yishyene: Maybe something like fruits…? *softly*
Aunty G: I know! I’ll go see whether we have lamb burgers! *ignores us and stomps off with purpose*
Us: Fruits la… not burgers…. -_-
Needless to say, we ended the day with burgers grilled with onions + pear,
with grilled mushrooms and peas.
There is no such thing as a ‘light meal’ in my aunty’s house.
Hi, I love your aunt’s style of cooking! The portion size is just nice for one person, the ingredients used seem fresh and there is variety of texture, colour and flavour. The food looks nutritious. Even the veggies look healthy and yummy at the same time. Now this is what I call FOOD! Of course, your lovely pictures helped tantalise the tastebuds as well. 🙂
Tell her, her style of cooking will beat any stuffy restaurant anytime!
how very nice of you to say that! i told my aunt and she said: yippee!
😀
