The secret of Mdm Ang;s GU lu rou

kk this is the secret of how it is made..








Told ya its a secret.. Try to figure it out urself.

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

Attention: Please be reminded that you should not attempt to flip the food that is on the frying pan anywhere else except the kitchen.

We've just gotten a letter of warning from the SPCA regarding a case of animal abuse (Re:causing trauma to a greyish black cat) due to the inconsiderate actions of the wannabe chef who attempted to flip the rostis on his frying pan in the garden.

What actually took place then, was that our very ambitious wannabe chef wanted to prove that he was stocky enough to flip the rostis successfully in his frying pan. However, he was only half successful. Unfortunately, right after this happens, a greyish black cat came along and was delighted at its new found present. However, upon scruntinizing it carefully, it realised that its happiness was shortlived and it walked away, feeling disappointed and traumatised at what it had seen. From then on, this greyish black cat would lock itself up and shun anything that resembles what it had seen that fateful day.

Hence, we would like to strongly urge your to flip with discretion and remember that, besides being "green", we need to love our stray animals too!
