it's been awhile

and the past two weeks have been an absolute dream.

moving on, it's back to reality and yet another kitchen disaster presented itself this morning.

being the pack rat i am, i'd somehow acquired 2+kg of pork. half expired on 18 november and the rest expired today.

problem: 2+kg of soon-to-be rancid pork

solution: a cauldron of bak ku teh

and now i'm beyond gleeful at my ingenious use of potentially rotten pig. which doesn't say much about my culinary expertise or standard of living, unfortunately.

but yay to being chinese! and knowing how to make bak ku teh! the pepper and spice did wonders :)

new problem: single-handedly finishing aforementioned cauldron of bak ku teh. it's not that i'm selfish but my corridormates have negligible spice tolerance and K, my lone spice-sharing sympathiser, doesn't eat pork.

slut.
