Things that go bump

I sometimes wonder if there are ghosts or bunians or mysterious creatures that live in my house..

Sebab there’s a few times (well, a lot actually) when I say to the girls and the Other Half…

“Switch off the lights. Who left them on?”

“Who left the remote lying everywhere?”

“Who left the toilet paper roll on the floor again?”

“Who’s cups are this? How come there’s so many dirty cups everywhere when there’s only four of us in this house?”

“who took my stuff and didn’t put it back where you got it from?”

And their answers will almost always be…

“Not me. I didn’t do it.”

So, kalau you, rasa musykil tak?

Since it is obviously not me (sebab I yang bertanya sambil berleter), not either of the girls nor The Other half since takde sape yang mengaku…

So, sudah semestinya lah benda2 tu dilakukan and digunakan oleh makhluk2 halus yang bermaharajalela kat rumah ni kan!

Tapi, yang buat I lagi musykil…

Bila I sorang2 kat rumah, takde pulak makhluk2 halus tu bermaharajalela menggunakan all the cups and switching on all the lights.

Bila budak2 and bapak budak tu ada kat rumah, tetiba aje makhluk2 tu pandai2 buat benda2 yang buat kan I berleter…

Hikhikhikhikhik….

Kat rumah you all ada tak makhluk2 ni?

Pastu, bila ada sesape yang menjawab, “not me. I didn’t do it” and buat derk aje instead of quickly doing the things I asked them to do…

Terus makhluk yang paling ganas iaitu Dragon Mother muncul!

Baru lah makhluk2 lain tu kelam kabut sebab Dragon Mother dah muncul, muahahahahaha…….

Alah, Dragon Mother kalau muncul pun, dinner will still be served on time…

(sambil mengomel keluar asap, sambil masak dinner. Dragon Mother yg multitasking kan, heeeee…).

Malam ni Masak something that I created from leftovers jugak.

I had leftover roast lamb in the freezer since April hari tu, tak terguna2.

(All my leftovers in the freezer I letak date and name on the plastic containers/ ziplock bags so I know what they are and how long they’ve been in the freezer for).

So, tadi I made sweet potato, veges and lamb filling to use with the filo pastry I have left from the other day,

Bila tengok kat Taste website ni, nampak cantik pulak dia buat macam ni so I pun tiru lah but the filling I buat ikut recipe sendiri with what I have in the fridge.

Spiral filo pastry with lamb, sweet potato and vegetable filling.

tak lah susah mana nak membuatnya but you have to be quick so the filo pastry doesnt crack when you try to shape it into coils. I punya ada gak yg crack but tak jadi hal sbb rasa tetap marvellous, hehehe.

We had it with chips and tomato and cucumber salad.

The inside of the pastry.

Miss 8 said to me, “the filling tastes a bit strange to me. It is nice but the chicken tastes different.”

I said to her, “I used lamb not chicken, maybe that’s why it tastes a bit different?”

Then she said, “Riiiighhhttt… is that why my chicken didn’t taste like chicken. Now I know it is lamb, it suddenly tastes so much better.”

D’oh!
