Lunch Today – 21 Jan 2013

For the kids’ lunch today, I was undecided whether to cook green tea noodles with the new sauce that I had bought from Isetan or mushroom pasta.  Since the punnet of button mushrooms had been sitting in the fridge for over 1 week already, I thought I should just use it before they turn black. Fresh button mushrooms are darn costly, so I ain’t going to waste them.  So I cooked fresh mushroom pasta with roast chicken today.  This time, I substituted whipping cream with evaporated milk. One of my regular readers from Canada gave me the great tip of using evaporated milk to replace whipping cream.  And the pasta today tastes just as delish as whipping cream cooked pastas!  And the price of evaporated milk is almost 3 times cheaper than that of whipping cream!  Thanks heaps for this tip Chris!

Fresh button mushroom linguine with shredded roast chicken meat (I bought an extra piece of roast Terriyaki  chicken whole leg from AEON yesterday).

Tonight, I am going to roast chicken for the girls and I know my girls will be very pleased to know that when they come home from school la later  

What’s in your menu for lunch and dinner today?

Cassandra’s First Swimming Lesson

At 4 years 9 months, my baby girl finally attended her first swimming lesson. She did pretty well, was very excited and was totally not afraid of the water. She’s a born water baby 🙂

The very first practice that the swimming instructor taught her was to submerge her head in the water in the baby pool, which she did pretty well.

Next, she was brought to the adults’ pool and taught to float and submerge her head in her water. She can’t wait to attend her next swimming lesson!
