Making Up Through Their Stomachs

I've been rather busy at work the last few months.  So, on weekends, this is how I make up to my three boys for all my shortcomings.

Pork Chop w/ Mashed Potatos and Veg

Cheese Burger

Longganisa w/ Garlic Rice and Egg

Prawn Noodles Soup

In my attempt to learn how to cook Singapore food, I cooked Prawn Noodles Soup for dinner yesterday.  It didn't taste as good as my hubby's favourite at Adam Road Hawker's Centre, but we accomplished a few milestones with this meal. 

Both my boys tried eating prawns for the first time!  My James even had 2 pieces of it!  He is such a fussy eater that he dare not eat a lot of things.  He is not a soup person, but he had the whole bowl of it, and finished all the noodles as well.  What a joy to see him try new things.

I may not gotten a thumbs up from hubby for it, but sure got it from my boys. :)

Sushi For Dinner

Made Sushi with my boys for dinner today.  Also did a special Nagaraya sushi inspired by them coz they love Nagaraya nut crackers.  We had them in front of the TV today which is only allowed once in a while.  Dinner vanished quite fast, expecially for my Jamesy.
I made Pork Stew for my dear hubby who has not been well the last few days and doesn't fancy sushi at all. :-)

Beef Lasagna Dinner

Made Beef Lasagna for dinner today. Inspired by hubby's craving for it 2 Sundays back but didn't have the time to make it. Finally satisfied his craving today. My boys finished dinner in 15 minutes instead of the usual 45 minutes! I must say it was a hit!

Fast Cooking

Monday is my busiest day of the week. Having to catch up with housework after all the mess made by my 2 boys during the weekend, laundry, ironing and sending them to their phonics and reading classes at different timings. Dinner on Mondays are always simple coz I am not able to spend enough time planning and cooking. So...this is what I cooked for dinner.


It's so easy and fast to cook, and it's very cheesy. My boys love it.
