CEO's hand

CEO's hand is the nickname of problem told by the doctor when I went to clinic today. I started to have a lot of little pox on my fingers especially around the joints. They are very small but very itchy. I found that nearly every day I wake up and I had to put my fingers in hot water to relieve the itchiness. It will not be so itchy in the afternoon but the skin on the affected area becomes hard and reddish. No matter what medicine cream available at home I try to put on, none of them works. I remembered I had that before but totally not as serious as this time. I tried to call my mum and asked for advice. She told me I have " internal poisoning caused by damp/ wet poison " , I do not know how to explain that. Anyway, she named several Chinese herbs to boil to drink but seemed it did not cure the symptom. So, I decided to see the doctor and what he told me is I was too stress before. It happened to quite a lot of CEO and that why it got the nickname - CEO 's hand. I guess I just became the CEO of cleaning at home and that why I got this problem. Hopefully, I will be better soon with the medicine.

Having its new teeth

Cookie is growing up. He is loosing his baby teeth and ready for the new one to come out. Wah, I cannot believe my dog is growing up so fast as it seemed not long again I bought him back as a little puppy.

I am a ice cream seller

I guess most ppl stock up rice once they move into a new house but that is not the case for me and Tao. Actually I guess it is not the case for Tao. He stocks up a lot of ice cream because it is on sale.We got it half price and Tao decided to stock up to 8....nearly fill up all the upper tier of the freezer. Omg. I guess he does need to plan his exercise routine in order to not being fat again. Heheh.

Dim sum from long time ago

Tao and I went to yum cha today. I saw this dim sum and immediate decided to try it. I remember I ate a lot when I was a small kid. However, after the chinese restaurant I usually went closed, I never able to find it in other restaurant. I have not tried this dessert more than 12 years.

I do not know how to call this dim sum but I kind of know what it is made of. This is a kind of dessert made of sago wrap with different filliings usually red beans or custard. Although it is not a wonderful delicious food , I am so happy that to try this again as it reminds me the time when I was a young innocent child.

Cookie @ new home

Cookie is now at new home and he felt quite comfortable now. Even though he is a curious dog , he follows me everywhere and did not explore much by himself. The most interesting thing is that he slides on the floor a lot because the timber floor is quite slippery for him while running. Once he runs, he will slip on the floor and it is so funny. Although he does not able to control his running skill here, it definitely a better sleeping floor for him as it is cooler compare to the carpet. Now he does not need to search for the cooler spot to sleep and be able to sleep anywhere .

Favorite dish to taste again

I love this dish a lot. Baked Broccoli with Butter and Cheese is a dish I usually ordered in most of the small cafe in Hong Kong. I thought it is a western dish and it should be a dish that can be easily tried in most restaurants in Australia. However, I have not seen any western restaurant here has this dish. It was until last week when I went to a Hong Kong cafe...I saw this new dish on its menu and I immediately ordered that. Honestly the taste was quite ordinary and the sauce should not be so runny. But I was happy to try this again without going back to Hong Kong.

Dinner @ Enoteca

After two days of hard work, we decided to treat ourselves a better dinner. I wanted to try the Pearl cafe again @ Wollongaba and we decided to have a try without booking. When Tao and I arrived, we found out that the restaurant was not opened because of a fire happened two months ago.....how come we were so unlucky ??!!!

So, we decided to try the other restaurant on the same street. Enoteca is a Italian restaurant and we decided to give a try as we saw quite a lot of customers there. Without booking ahead, we could only get the seat along the bar. We ordered home made bread, scallops for entree, baked tuna and rabbit for mains and peas with goat cheese on side.

The bread was soft and I really like it. For the mains, I get used to eating raw tuna but the one I tried was quite nice. It was not over cook and the middle part was still reddish colour. The creamy sauce got a smokey flavor that I really loved. For the rabbit, I only tried a bit and it tasted like chicken. It was tendered and soft, totally different from the one I tried in Shanghai. However, I do not really like it ....maybe I felt weird eating a cute animal ba. For the side dish, it was quite ordinary but I dislike the goat cheese. The taste was too strong and I prefer something mild. So, I ate most of the peas and Tao finished all the cheese...lol
