Hachi...

Good morning and I'm so happy it's Saturday! This morning I woke up and watched a really good movie called "Hachi" it's about a loyal dog that goes back to the train station everyday after his owner passed away. I think I read or heard the story about Hachi long time ago, but cannot recalled where I read it or heard it from, but when I saw the movie I was so excited to watch it. When I finished watching the movie, I want a dog! I will consider having a dog when I get my own place.  It's a great movie, so watch it when you have a chance.

Today it's nice and sunny, my friend lend me her new lumix 25mm lens, I can't wait to go outside to shot some photos to test out the lens. I will post some photos taken with the lumix 25mm lens next time.

Anyway, time to get ready and head out, wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

These fresh figs are pretty good, very sweet! I tried to make myself eat fresh fruits everyday!

Bun Rieu...

This weekend I had attempted to make Bun Rieu, after three attempts, I think I finally master the version I like. It was quite easy to make. I ate Bun Rieu as a late night snack on Friday night, then I realized that I forgot to put the fish sauce and the egg, but it still taste pretty good and that was my first attempt. Then on Saturday afternoon, I want to make it again, this time I remember to add the egg and the fish sauce, it taste better, but I think it would be better if I added some spiciness to it. Therefore today I decided to cook it again and this time I added the jalapeno to the recipe and it taste really good (in my opionion). ^___^ . Practice makes perfect! I also made pickled cucumber, so good! I love Persian cucumbers!

Lately I thought to myself about things that happened in my life and come to realized that history repeats itself in  my life and I think I have to reflect on my actions to learn from my mistakes and hopefully not let history repeat itself.

Enjoying coffee this afternoon to wake myself up
