It’s my favourite indulgence. If you know me well, you’ll know that I watch what I eat. I don’t eat sugary stuffs. I don’t drink sodas. I am not even bothered by the current bubble tea craze.  BUT when it comes to durians, I have no restrictions whatsoever. I am crazy over durians. I can eat it for breakfast, lunch AND dinner *burp* Last month I was so craving for durians that I pestered Darling […]

My sister-in-law brought some durians for us from my FIL’s orchard last weekend. Thick, creamy and extremely sweet. Oh me, oh my. Yums!

I did not add sugar and salt since I’m making this for my 22-months-old Ayden. Once boiled, let […]

We went back to my in-law’s place last weekend and got these load full of local fruits from my father in-law’s orchard.  Durian Don’t know what’s the name of this fruit. Is it pulasan?  Rambutans.  Talking about rambutans and any other fruits, in my house, if I don’t peel them, no one will eat them. So each time we bring home all these fruits, I will have to peel and keep them in a container […]

Ethan being the city kid has never plucked mangoes in his life.  He saw the Grandpa doing it and […]
