Cool marble and hot chillies

The oven people called petang tadi to let me know that they will be delivering the new oven tomorrow between…

7.00 am to 10.00 am

Delivery guys kat sini memang macam tu, suka benor start keje pagi2 buta, hehehehe…

Nasib baik lah we all memang bangun at 6 o’clock or earlier so kiranya by 7 tu, I dah wangi and sopan lah..

Tak lah muka macam zombie kampung pisang kan, hikhikhikhik

And nasib baik school holidays so I don’t have to do the school run during that time.

But esok cuma hantar oven aje, install dia tak tau bila lah.

I have to wait for them to call me again to let me know when the technician can come to install the oven.

But I should be thankful because it’s not taking months to replace it.

I am just hoping the replacement oven will work wonderfully without any hiccups.

Miss 12 dah tanya macam mana nak masak her pavlova birthday cake if takde oven.

I told her hopefully we can start using the new oven days before her birthday or else I just have to try bake the pav in the small oven.

She just have to have a small pavlova cake on her birthday I guess, hehehe….

Anyway, pagi tadi since tak payah kena hantar the girls to school, we went shopping instead.

I kan cheapskate so I waited until after Easter’s gone to buy the choc Easter eggs. All the choc eggs and bunnies are now 50% off so why buy earlier kan, wasting money aje, hehehee.

Punyalah banyak chocs I borong tadi so The Little Misses can have their egg hunt next week .

And I also bought the marble wood chopping/pastry board, yeayyyyy, hehehehe…

Punyalah berat gilers, nasib baik I tak beli hari Sabtu hari tu and carried it on the bike.

This is the marble/wood chopping/pastry board. On the reverse side, it’s completely made out of wood so we can use that side for chopping.

Terus rasa sangat teruja nak buat bread esok pagi, something sweet and sticky but small so boleh muat masuk the small oven .

After balik dari shopping, masuk kebun pulak.

But our main vege patch now is quite bare except for some bean plants. The Other Half baru aj eletak compost and some soil on it to prepare it for the next lot of Winter veges.

I baru aje semai benih beans, lettuce, spring onions, pak choy, spinach and kale. First time ever I try tanam kale ni, I have no idea what it tastes like or how it looks like.

The Other half kata kalau rasa dia macam silverbeets, dia tak larat nak makan dah, hehehe.

And I petik the chillis yang dah masak and banyak yang dah kering on the plants especially the cili api yang cepat sgt kering.

We have 6 different types of chili plants. The usual cili api kampung yang kecik2 tu, the habanero chillies, the purple round chillies (which turn red when ripe), another cili api but bigger in size. And 2 different large size chillies, if I’m not mistaken one is cayenne and the other is Thai chilli.

I think either I blend them and freeze them in freezer bags to be used in the future or turn them into dried chillies kan.

People say, the habaneros akan lose its flavours kalau dikeringkan. Cara yg paling baik to eat them is raw so you can appreciate its fruit flavours. Mau lah I kalau makan them raw, hahahaha.

They are all unbelievably hot if you eat them raw. If you cook them for a longgggg time, kuranglah sikit pedas dia .

We have plenty of really hot chilli plants for someones who don’t eat/ can’t stand hot chillies, hhehehehe…

I had already picked some of the green chillies on Saturday to make cili jeruk. Supply cili jeruk we all dah nak habis so tu yang kena buat lagi.

Mat Saleh kat rumah ni yang terlebih minat dengan cili jeruk ni tu yang kena ada supply.

I slalunya letak on pizza, makan dgn mee goreng or kuey teow goreng aje pun.
