Sometimes you just need something simple for dinner.
Of course, there are days when you need something simple, delicious, as well as green.

Hey guys, do you realize that you are seeing me for the second time this week? (Read: second blog post for the week) Eid is still on, people are coming over even now, but I've nonetheless…
Rojak (Malaysian and Singaporean spelling) or Rujak (Indonesian spelling) is a traditional fruit and vegetable salad dish commonly found in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. There are non vegetarian salads too, like in this recipe. The term "Rojak" means a "mix". It is also used as a colloquial expression for an eclectic mix, in particular as a word describing the multi-ethnic character…
"Writer's block is a condition, primarily associated with writing, in which an author loses the ability to produce new work or experiences a creative slowdown"
Yes, that is how Wikipedia would describe me right now. Since the time my mummy has been sick, I have not felt capable enough to compose decently. Today mom is up and running, however my brain…
I was checking my phone at 6 am (cause the alarm went off) and I was so happy with what I saw that I squealed and did a 360-degree flip! Ok, fine, it was just 180 degrees, right to left. Anything more than that would have broken a few bones. I was all smiles and there was just one cause for…
How was thanksgiving people?
Mine was good *rubs tummy*
It was so good for me that I felt guilt stricken and I ended up buying an overpriced box of soup that was supposed to be very healthy and it tasted HORRIBLE. Don't you just hate it when you spend your moolah on any kind food that seems so good on the packaging?…
Some of you might be looking at the title and going "Butter on Skinny Mondays"??
Butter in moderation is fine; not my words, but Dr. Ian Smith's. Yes, that is how I roll at times, echoing back whatever the specialist said. It is perfectly normal to quote someone else otherwise there wouldn't be a re-post feature on Instagram, a re-tweet tab on…
Whenever someone drops me a message/comment on Maya’s Kitchenette, I would be all smiley-miley. There is always a sense of satisfaction when a certain recipe is loved. So do keep the comments coming people. (hint hint)
Responsibility is built into blogging, too. I have been trying to blog religiously. I might not be taking the most awesome of pictures (as yet) but I…
I love making lists.
I make lists when I go shopping.
I make to-do lists of things I have to do.
I make a list of my working schedule when I have orders or when it is a busy period. Eg: Eid.
I make a weekly list for the dinners that I cook.
I am a list-maniac. Colornote is officially my best friend. Despite sounding…
Vietnamese Salad with Peanut Sauce. Don't cha think that the name of this salad itself sounds delicious? I know I have said this even so often, but I am a huge huge fan of salads.I mean what is there not to love about salads? They are
Nutritious

Eating enough fiber lowers the risk of developing heart disease later…
I love salads. Love is an understatement because I LOVEEEEEEEEE salads. If there is 1 food that can turn me into a vegetarian, then it has to be a good avocado and fresh mozzarella salad. I don't just eat any salads though. I can never understand as to how people would toss some extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) on some leaves and…
