Kite flying @ Mrina Barrage!
8/06/2011 11:42:00 PM

It has been so long since our Double Clique last met. So few weeks back, I asked for opinions from the members and came to an agreement that we will meet today for kite flying and picnic at Marina Barrage. I set a theme: White and Red with sunglasses for National Day! Also, I requested all attendees to make some food. So in the end Hong bought Pia Kia pies, Yang drinks, Tady potato croquettes, Rong sandwiches, Yujing tidbits and I Longan Grass Jelly. Yesterday, I met up with Jess again (Met her on Wednesday for super nice movie, Captain America), walked around Yishun finding nice RED clothes for the outing. I took in so much effort to find that, but only realized others didn't even bother to keep to the theme. I won't set any theme for this clique anymore in the future gatherings, it's meaningless. Then I bought all the ingredients needed for the dessert and started cooking yesterday night.

This is the grass jelly, I bought the powder and cook myself because I heard that it is more healthy cooking ourselves. This is the final result after adding in longan fruits. Not too bad (:
Then this morning, I packed them into 5 containers so that it will be easier for them to eat since its liquid form. I prepared one extra large one in case some may want a second round. But none had it. HAHHAHA.
A few photos from the fun yet tiring outing. It was my first time flying a kite, so I was a bit clumsy at the tool. That had made Jing and Rong laughed their lungs out. Some evidences:

After our picnic, we dragged our bloated tummies to Olio Cafe at Marina Square and had our dinner till 9pm. Due to that, I missed SW's Birthday Party, I felt very guilty towards her now. We also went to buy some Korean goodies from the Korean shop. Spent about $50 for that day. But had great fun with my clique (:

Few days ago, I have also learnt from the TV show this dish: Winter melon soup.
This is unlike the normal winter melon soup because it is sweet and sour. I have not tried winter melon in my life before this, so abit don't like the result. But some people said it's not too bad. the most worth-a-eat reason about this dish is that it is a cooling dish. Winter melon contains about 96.5% water, thus it is believed to be able to reduce one's body heat easily. As a result, it will help those bothered with pimples to better the condition if you were to eat this frequently. This dish is very easy to make, approach me if you are interested.
