Hubby has been going outstation for the last couple of weeks, n that means i was (and still am) home alone. Though it wasn't the first time he had to leave for work, i have to admit i still find it difficult to sleep well without him. I didn't realise this until the other day, a friend of mine mentioned how she couldn't sleep when her hub is away; and i realised i had the same problem! Lol.
And of course, apart from sleeping, i find cooking hard. Cooking for one, or rather for myself, is not something i am keen of, particularly when i have to wash, chop, cook, n wash; all for the sake of feeding myself. And it gives me headache just thinking of what i should eat; can't just have meat or vege dish alone; what's for starch or if wat i'm about to cook is healthy enough as a meal.
I cooked this korean style stir fry beef the other day for lunch, and i thought it was a masterpiece. LOL. Not only was it easy, it was packed with colourful nutritious vegetables (i added carrots, red, green capsicums and onions) and the taste was superb! The beef was marinated with the korean spicy pepper sauce (sorry i don't know the name in korean) which i bought from a korean store just up the road.
And it goes well with rice of course! A simple and decent meal which now makes cooking-for-one less troublesome for me. Just fry the marinated beef with onions and carrots till cooked and soft before finally adding the capsicum and ta-da!!, u now have a proper meal.
Easter is coming in less than 3 weeks time, n i am pampering myself with lots of chocolate hot cross buns which i now find myself addicted to, to the point which i can't resist at least two a day! Now, how am i going to keep fit? LOL.
