Pagi tadi semua orang was sighing blissfully in the shower…
It was so good to have real high pressure hot water…
Poyo betul lah we all ni kan, hahahaha….
We are simple people, we find joy in simple things like hot water 
Lagi lah when it was quite cold pagi tadi, rasa tak nak keluar dari hot shower tu, hehehehe…
Last night I just realised what I detest about cold weather ni…
COLD TOILET SEAT!
Rasa bercinta betul nak duduk on it, fikir 4-5 kali whether I really need to use the toilet or not sebab sejuk giler the seat. It feels like I could have frozen my a**e off by sitting on it!
I wonder if everyone who lives in cold places yang ada snow tu has heated toilet seats in their houses ye to avoid that thing happening?
When I complained to The Other Half yang we definitely need to buy a heated toilet seat for Winter, dia jawab…
“We didn’t have heated toilet seat when we were living in Invercargill and that place is the closest neighbour for Antartica so it was pretty darn cold. We survived. It builds character!”
Ye lah, dia punya behind banyak padding so tu yang tak terasa the coldness so bolehlahh cakap it builds character, hikhikhik…..
Every Winter I will feel like buying a heated toilet seat but habis aje Winter, terus terkubur niat tu…
And tonite pun sejuk jugak so I made pasta for dinner.
I wanted to make spaghetti carbonara.
But since Miss 12 tak nak makan spaghetti and fettucine takde stock, terpaksalah I guna short pasta.
And since the real carbonara guna bacon, I replaced it with corned beef silverside.
And since the carbonara is so bland and unhealthy looking, I tambah mushroom and broccoli to brighten up the colours and the taste.
The real Italian style carbonara only uses egg yolks, egg, parmesan in the sauce. But I tak larat pulak nak guna just egg yolks and parmesan so I used the recipe that uses only a small amount of eggs but adds cream to make it still creamy and rich.
With carbonara sauce, you use only the heat of the cooked pasta to gently cook the raw eggs in the sauce so you basically have to get the sauce ready before the pasta finishes cooking.
Once the pasta is cooked, you have to quickly drain it and straight away gently mix it into the sauce and let the heat of the pasta cook the eggs.
But don’t overmix it or else jadi scrambled eggs pulak nanti, hehehe.
It was well received by everyone at the dinner table tadi which was good lah kan.

k.min,
kita serupa!! I hate cold toilet seat. rela tahan nak gi toilet sebab tak sanggup duduk kat toilet seat yg sejuk. if only boleh bawak masuk heater :D
err... after so long, i'm 1st? :P
hihi...hati2 nanti beku ;-)
mesti sejuk sangat kan..tak best nak "melabur"
oh ada pasta...olala..bestnya
I rather do it standing than tahan because of sejuk. Hehe ... buat orang lose appetite aja kan?
that pasta serving looks just right for me!
Cuaca sejuk ada part yg best & ada part yg x best kan...
I nk kena google nk tgk mcmana rupa heated toilet seat ni. x boleh nk imagine mcmana...
hahha, saya kalo winter pikir 2 kali nak buang hajat, seat sejuk, sekarang pon makin sejuk, kan elok kalau ada tandas cangkung, sejuk pon x.hehe
Nanti suruh budak form 4 reka heated seat tu dlm kelas equipment design diorang. heated toilet seat bwh, sarung sauna kat atas. lagi meriah!
mmg pun kmin.. kalau toilet seat sejuk, sanggupla tahan apa yang patut. hehehe..
i love carbonara.. sbb tu badan pun dah makin up up sekarang nie.. duk la makan benda2 yg agak membesarkan diri :p
Kak Min,
Haha! Betul tu! Memang bercinta nak duduk atas cold toilet seat. Tambah kalo bangun gi toilet pukul 3,4am. Air bidet pon guna air panas. Haha!
oh i cant imagine using cold toilet seat. must be really hard to make business hehehhe
well, akak. as always all the food that u cooked for ur family looking good.
hahahaha..kelakau lerr LG..
your toilet takde wall heater ke? maybe you shud get a fan heater..before nature;s call kasi pasang fan heater dulu dekat ngan toilet seat so that it gets warm first...hahahaha
Lg,
Padded toilet seat is just as good as heated seat, but cheaper and fit for all season :)
As for traditional carbonara, that's my favorite guilty pleasure food. Just spaghetti, eggs, salt & pepper. And cheese! It's a nice dish to make when you are alone.
hehehhe... sambil baca ntry nih, sambil bayangkan camne lah rasanyer sejuk2 time pg2 nk membuang tuh... heheheh mau tepanjat bile sejuk sgt...
sedapnyer carbonara akak tu... walaupun simple je nampaknyer
lucu betul.. xterlintas langsung ms winter ada lak masalah lain...hehehe, lapikkan aje ngan towel..

Shidah,
every winter, mesti problem yg sama timbul. Rasa bercinta nak rasa the first coldness bila duduk, hahaha.
Maybe I suruh Matt warm the seat up for me first eh :-P
Kak Kasih,
the first touch tu yg sejuk giler, pastu dah ok sikit. Tapi memang tak boleh lah nak duduk lama2 melabur, hahaha
Noir,
No can do standing one! hahahaha...
That pasta serving was for the whole family, hehehe
ka6_jeram,
kalau kena gosok2, maknanya kena make sure tak urgently in need utk pergi toilet lah eh :-).
Pendragon,
Sama mcm Summer, ada part best and ada part tak best. But I slalu lupa about that cold toilet seat masa tgh2 panas terik Summer and I was wishing for Winter to come soon, hehehe.
Zul,
Ha'ah kan, kalau ada tandas cangkung, sejuk pun tak kisah, hehehe.
Shahlin,
dah ada orang reka but rege dia tu yg buat kan we all tak beli, hehehe
MM,
Selagi boleh tahan, selagi tu I tahan, hahaha.
I love creamy pasta too. Tu yg jarang2 buat or else semua naik bagai dipam2, hehe
Aida,
Betul tu, memang guna air panas masa Winter sbb tak larat weh nak menerima kejutan air sejuk pagi2 and malam2, hehehe
Farah,
it is difficult but bila you need to go, you just have to bear it :-)
Blu4sky,
hahaha...takde wall heater you! Fan heater ada in the bedroom, I can always point it towards the bathroom in the morning kan, hehehe.
T,
Maybe I should think of padded seat, hmmmm..
I think the real carbonara with egg yolks and cheese will be extra creamy and yummy kan. I should try it one day :-).
Dana,
memang terkejut sekejap lah and terus terencat tak jadi nak membuang, hahaha
Rdimple,
I love Winter tapi tu lah, tak larat bila segala benda kita pegang and sit on sejuk aje :-)
Mulan,
kalau curah, habis lah lantai semua basah. I jugak yg kena lap nanti, tak kuasa, hehehe...
hahaha..during winter, kadang kadang sehari sekali ja mandi.nak mandi air panas selalu, org cakap tak elok untuk kulit. it'll make your skin dry.
