Not as easy as it looks...Near failed... heart sausage sunny side up!

How hard can it be to make a sunny side up egg

and a sausage for breakfast?

Well, I nearly failed it!

No, I'm not kidding you...it the picture Jojo me that kidding me...

It's "MISLEAD" me that it easy enough for kids to make it!

This is the one I'm talking about...

A sunny side up framed with heart shaped sausage.

It don't have any instruction...

So, I "assume" that it should be slice the sausage in half,

leave a bit uncut at one end...bead it around and 'pinned' with a toothpick...

placed into the pan and crack an egg into the hollow heart shape, right?

NO and Nope!  The sausage got 'split' at the uncut 'end' and even I pinned

both ends with 'toothpick's it still not staying in the right shape and got 'tilted' too!

(I know, how can I describe a 'process' that easy into a DISASTER?)

And the helpful tips from the source...select the sausage that's more softer

so it would shape easily...Oh dear, I bought my sausages from frozen dept!!!

Anyway, with my lack of patience and experience (luckily Jojo and Mei Mei

were beside me, they so look forward for the result...if not...I could have

swallow those sausages raw!) I get a little help with a tools.

A round easy fried mold

Yup...that's save all the toothpicks and the tilted problem.

How you like that...make a heart shape from a round mold!

...and it's works!  Easy Peasy!

(this one...I cut the sausage into quaters...4 long strips

so the egg is kind of 'overflowed'  Mei Mei prefers less sausage!)

(This is not a sunny side up...Jojo prefers the yolk to be fully done!)

Well, as long it works and they finished their breakfast...

Have a nice day, dear!

Mother's Day Gift : A small gift with lots of thought...

When comes to giving gift the person you care so much... 

it's always very tough! 

source

Why?

Because there's always so many ideas but not one that is good enough.

But do remember, it is not the gift but the thoughts that's count

As always...I started to hunt for the 'perfect' gift months earlier...

Well, I didn't managed to find any 'perfect' one yet...but I did found this lovely...

A bottle of nail polish of my mom favorite color.

A bit coral, clear and peachy...

(That's the way she always describe it!)

This is no THE Mother' Day gift...

but I know she would be glad to have it!

I was actually planed to pass to her today...

No wrapping... just in the same paper bag the store wrapped for me when I bought it...

Then, I saw Mich's post about "Faux Antique Perfume Bottles"

That's really tickles my fingers to do something with the little bottle.

Here is what I use...

Glue gun, some lace, some pearl string, a little ribbon flower I made earlier

(link here for the ribbon flower tutorial) and double side tape.

I started with wrapping the side of the bottle with the double side tape

Cut a small piece of lace just enough to wrap it around the side of the bottle

What you do when the weather is hot and your car is like an oven?

Not 100% 'home'made...( I'll explain below)

but...truly 100% made by me!

Sorry for such a long silence....

Everything is super duper fine here...

I just got 'caught' up with some new 'routines'

As part of my this year new year resolution...

Have a 40 minutes session with Tracy Anderson

I love her exercise especially her - arm routines.

Try to have a short 30 minutes nap in the afternoon

At least a nice and quiet bubble every 2-3 days....

Take a short walk with my hubby after dinner...

(and let the kids clean the dishes for me!!!)

go to bed before 11pm every night

 (I know... but I can't help to check my FB and blog before sleep!!)
