So yesterday, Phil and I found our dream home. It's this one, and it's SO PRETTY. It's also almost perfect, but we can modify it to what we want, which is slightly smaller. The house starts at around $385,000 without the land, so this is definitely a long-term goal to save for :-p
Had an awesome day today. Caught up with a friend who is visiting from overseas. We went to a restaurant in Chinatown that I haven't been to before, which turned out to be delicious. I really like Tsing Tao beer - it's tasty! I also like suan la tang, which is sour hot soup. I need to learn how to make it, because it's really good.
This week's recipe (#7) was a red wine rissotto! It involved rice and red wine (obviously), plus beef stock, sage leaves and cheese. It turned out really nice, though next time I'd modify it to include mushrooms and possibly beef chunks or strips. I might make that next week's recipe, if I don't decide to make that soup instead :-) See how we go.
But yeah, I'm rather pleased with this one! It's going into the favourites pile!
