Saw the trailer for this movie a couple of months back and I told myself - I HAVE TO SEE THIS!!! *LOL* G-Force *The Movie* Official website

I wonder how many of you remember the 'invasion' of the guinea pigs in the Southpark cartoon series? I was just making a joke that they will make it to the movies soon enough.. hell.. it really happened.. now they really are on the BIG SCREEN.. and they became the heroes... *chuckle*

Time for coke & popcorns again... *GRINZ*

Was actually supposed to get it back last night but my PC doc forgot to take my CPU with him when he left the office... bugger... Nevermind.. at least I got it back, now I'm HAPPEEE......

I told Mikka baby that I saw a news report about an 'invasion' of marmots in Germany's southern Allgäu region that's driving the

My biggest nightmare - PC Crashed!!!!

Last Sunday my dearest PC crashed. Having no PC is the worst thing ever. Its like being cut off from everything. No entertaintment, no games, no interaction....... Think people nowadays live by the PC.. keke... Thankfully I still have internet connection when I'm in the office. If not I think I would have started to feel like a caveman already... LOL.
It was really crazy. I was only watching my series as usual nothing else, then suddenly -POOF- it went dead and could not be restarted. Told me that a "WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM" file was either damaged or corrupted. The Windows XP disc did not help as well. I could not even boot up the system in safe mode. There was nothing I could do.
Yesterday, at long last, I managed to get my regular IT guy to pick up the CPU and see what he could do to 'revive' it. He told me that he only re-installed the OS (thank God cos all my data in the hardisk is still intact) and the system could be booted up BUT only in safe mode. There seems to be something preventing the normal startup. He said he will try to fix that and if everything goes well, I should be able to get my CPU back this evening.. YAY!!!.. I keep my finger crossed.

*Sob Sob* Da PC doctor just gave me a call... My baby cannot be 'discharged' today.
Will only be able to come home earliest tomorrow.......

** My New Toy **

Got a new toy today - my brand new electric mixer.. (thanks to dad I had to get a new one... u know what I mean.. keke)
Since I got myself a new toy then no need to guess, I have to start playing with it... LOL

I decided that maybe I should do another round of butter cake. The last few cakes that I made was edible but not good enough so i decided to try it out again.

This time round, I'm not sure if its the new mixer or what.. I managed to get a better batter and the cake turned out springy and nice... YAY!!!

The next time would be even better. Maybe I should attempt a new flavour... *chuckle*

When I finally manage to perfect this cake, I will learn how to make Tiramisu.. Have been asking my cousin to teach me how to make this for a looooooong time already but he's always so busy.. *sulk* I try to make another appointment with him regarding this again... LOL

Ich Mag Gulasch!!!! *SMILEZ*

Yes.. as what my Mikka says, I am a gulasch-holic.. keke...
When I was in Germany, I went all crazy over Gulasch Suppe... I figured that since I like to eat it, I must learn how to make it.
Bought the Gulasch spices from one (of the many) supermarket in Stuttgart on my last trip but never tried it till now... So, today is my first attempt...

Took me around 15 mins to prepare all the necessary ingredients.
I used capsicum, carrots, onions, potatoes, tomatoes and of course... BEEF!!

I used olive oil instead of vegetable oil (from what I find in most Gulasch recipes online) to sauté the garlic, onions and capsicum. Threw in the beef to stir-fry until half cooked, then lastly, the carrots, potatoes and crushed tomatoes. Added approximately 3 cups of beef stock and 1 small can of tomato puree. Lastly, the Gulasch spice that I brought all the way back from Germany... keke...

Had the whole pot boiling for about half an hour before I turned down the heat to let it 'stew' for about another hour or so... The smell was.... yummy yummy yummy...

Mom and dad was going all curious about what I was boiling.. They kept going into the kitchen and asking me.. 'Is it done?' *Grinz*

My dear brother is another darling.. I sent him an SMS asking if he would like to try my Gulasch (which was still cooking) and I got an answer almost immediately - "Ok, I come now!'.. LOL

The review of my Gulasch No. 1 - has room for improvement but overall - Yummy!!! Yay yay!!

So, Mikka.. too bad for you.. It wouldn't be bad for you and your stomach.. No.. not at all.. =P
