26 Years of Quiet Love: Farewell to My Beloved Baby

Forever my Big Baby Introduction: The Gentle Shadow On April 19, 2000, a tiny terrapin quietly crawled into my life and changed it forever. I bought her from a little neighborhood shop at my local market, the kind that sold ornamental fish, pet food, and basic aquarium supplies (the shop has long gone) . Back then, I actually brought home two or three baby terrapins. Being so young and not knowing much about pet care, the others sadly didn't survive very long. I still remember the tears I cried back then (not as much as this time) , gently burying one in a small hole I dug downstairs at our HDB block. Completely unaware at the time that digging there wasn't permitted! But through it all, one strong, resilient little soul stayed with me: my Big Baby (my parents called her Gui Gui (乌龟的龟) . In those early days, we really had no idea how to properly raise a terrapin. We simply learned as we went. I started with a small, basic tank, changing her water every single day and feeding h...

Culinary | Egg Mayo - My 1st Attempt

Hey there!  After consulting my colleagues on how to make egg mayo, I finally did it last night and succeeded!  Though still have to do a few more times to get the right balance taste, but is a nice try.
I gather the ingredients: Kraft Miracle Whip and eggs.  Recommended this Miracle Whip by my colleague.  I am so lucky getting it at petrol station which my colleague said not all NTUC has it. This shows that I must do this egg mayo cos is simple and sure gonna succeed.

My hard boiled egg.  First I boiled the water before putting in the eggs. After that I let the eggs be cooked in the boiled water for 10 mins. Once done, I took it out for cooling about 5 mins before cracking it.  So excited!

And yes!  After cracking and peeling off the egg shells, I used a fork to squash it evenly.  My bro said that if there is a blender, can just throw in instead of me do the squashing... Wahahha... But I enjoy it!

Lastly, I mix the squashed eggs with mayo (a tablespoon, which I think is a little too much) and pepper (I think I put too little).  And here you go... My homemade egg mayo sandwich is up!  I never taste it myself but I let my bro, dad and mum to be the guinea pigs.  And is good!  Except for my mum who never dare tried out all this stuff.  But I'm good.  The balance of the egg mayo, I put in a box and fridge it!  Woohoo... My breakfast!  And I'm definitely gonna get my guy to try later on.  *Bleah*
