improvised baked fish!

last night i cooked baked fish. i couldn't find fresh garlic so i had to use bottled. didn't have white wine so i used chinese cooking wine. oven couldn't on so i used stovetop. but i think it was still a success! haha my favourite dish to cook cos its so difficult to screw up. and the colours are always a crowd pleaser.

and since there was no small snapper i only used one head! fish head meat is so nice. i was fishing around the serving platter for remainding pieces of meat. and helping ppl find meat.

the funniest thing was when i was washing the fish head, i realised it wasn't scaled! completely unscaled! (is that the term, i mean the scales were all still there). so i used my chopper and started scaling it. scales were flying everywhere, and the smell of fish was getting stronger. and then i realised something. in a singlet and shorts, carrying a chopper scaling a fish, all i needed were yellow rubber boots, and i'll be a fishmonger!

annabelle had the decency to comment that i get all my money from my loaded customers who buy fish from me.

got thrashed at MJ last night. cards just didn't come in for me, and i defended all i could, but it was too easy for an and daniel lee. that stupid show gu huo zai keeps making me think if you lose in love you win in gambling. bloody philosophy holds no water. so far i've been losing losing losing on all fronts. and everywhere those that are winning big are not doing to badly in love as well. overachievers.

one very good friend kept telling me in the past: give without expecting anything in return. i try my best, but its really hard to do. i expect a minimum level consideration for my wellbeing and feelings from all my friends for the things i do. is that too much to ask for?
