First cooking session

It is my official first cooking session with my girlfriend & this really feels so good.
Nowadays because of some changes, some emotional thoughts, somethings here & there....I just realise the growing importance & comfort of having close girlfriends.
It is just something you can't do with an opposite gender.

Anyway that's blah blah de blah. Fyn & I had a great time together and let so the story goes....

After work, Fyn & I scurried off to Carrefour to purchase our ingredients for dinner.
We had (or maybe me) decided to make Carbonara. Judging by how the recipe reads, it didn't really seems that difficult.

Suddenly my left eye itches and I got a sudden blew of pink eye. -blink blink - The sneazy virus 'died' off after a while but then again this can't be trusted. I'm so worried that I might spread it to Fyn. (Even blogging right now, my eye still kinda itch.)

Finally we took the long NEL back to Punggol and it's Fyn's first time boarding NEL this direction & her first take on LRT.

First time is always beautiful.

Funny thing is when we finally reached the doorsteps (after some efforts spent on finding the block), we had difficulty opening the door. I even asked a very fiak in ang moh (ooh~the way he speaks is so sexy. Definitely just came back to SG. US made.) uncle (like 30s? That's 'uncle' by Vonx' dictionary..HEHE) to help us with the door.
(PS: Vonx, that 'uncle' is definitely your type. What's more sexy?He's a kan-tang 'uncle'!)

After some twist & turn, I finally managed to open the door.(Phew! I thought we are gonna be stuck outside for good!)

After settling, we headed to the new flat small kitchen. Although I know my uncle don't usually cook but I didn't expect to see the lack of kitchen appliances.
The biggest headache is there is only 1 pot and that pot is those kinda you use to cook your maggie mee. HOW TO COOK PASTA?
And then we have some lil' trouble finding the 'lighter' (whatever you call that) to ignite the stove. We even resort to using matchsticks and were thanking our lil' lucky stars for the match sticks.
But the joke is I FINALLY realised at the END of the day that you don't need to ignite the stove. You just pressed and turn the knot, the fire would be there. -____- wth!

We had so much fun in the kitchen and now we both realised that we are no chefs in the kitchen.
Lolx.

Photobucket The pasta that Fyn chose. Comes in cute animal shape.

I have zero intention to show you how in actual our carbonara looks. I blame it on the pot. With that kinda pot, how nice do you think your pasta can look? And partially I think we got greedy with the sauce, butter and eggs. LOLX. We didn't exactly follow the recipe and the portion, everything is ar-ga-ration.

Ok fine...you seen that! I am so sure that you won't invite me to your kitchen next time!

Fyn emphasizes that IT ACTUALLY DIDN'T TASTE BAD!! So looks aren't everything ok?
I think it tastes like some scrambled eggs. haha. I told you it is the pot's fault, not mine nor Fyn's. (Now you can officially say "kettle calling pot black." )

PhotobucketAnyway it is cheers to our first cooking session.^^

Photobucket We spot this at Carrefour. Some not more than $6 of dark choco Italian dessets. A box contains 2 and there are 3 varieties to choose from. It really tastes good (would be better if we weren't so filled by that darn pasta) and the good news is, it is NO MORE than 2% of fat!
You may like to dip strawberries in it so it will not get too sweet in your throat after a few mouthfuls.

We had a great talk about alot of things and alot of laughs. I just feel that it is really nice to have a flat of my own and couple it with a close galfriend.

See when it comes to co-habit with a guy, it just feels different. Perhaps some people view it as your love nest but I now look at it as a reponsibility to clean up the house and very likely,after the guy.

I seriously kinda irk being 'responsible' in a relationship. What's right & what's wrong and why should we tire ourselves from being accountable for?
I dunno what I am talking about but I just feel that I really wish to be alone and single,unattached for now. Emotions are wearing me out and now to get on with it, numb is rubbing in me and I actually feel nonchalent about most things to feel better. It is almost like one stage above sadness & lethargy.

(No worries, so much talking about me enjoying being with gals doesn't turn me to a les. I am 100% normal.)

Ok, I am getting ahead of myself. So the night ended with us smelling really buttery and sweaty. Hehe.
