JEALOUS?

Buckingham Palace

I blog about food, travel and beautiful places that fascinate me endlessly... However, initially unbeknownst to me, it has stirred envy in some people. I mean, they have actually said mean things about me, and got very jealous in negative ways.

Just last evening, as I was browsing through my travel pics to select some as requested by an European-based travel magazine, the pic you saw above caught my attention. So I thought it would be fun to share it on FaceBook. What was supposed to be a fun activity soon blown into an ugly scene - a so-called acquaintance who claimed to work for a local TV station made a personal attack on me, in public! Not just that, he went on to brag about his so-called "successful" life as a glamourous glitterati of local showbiz...

Seriously, I find it not only childish, it even scathes the image of both broadcast journalism, as well as that of the TV station he works for. That is just so pathetic, & I'm not going to feel sorry for his under-achieving career.

Anyway, on a lighter note, before I posted the "controversial" Buckingham Palace pose on FaceBook, I had posted these pictures below... However, I had not mentioned here that I am actually already home in Malaysia since last month.

Recovering from a fever, being home-bound on medical leave yesterday had made me feeling worse than the fever itself... Not wanting to bow to it, I decided to work it out in my small kitchen. Being occupied in the kitchen gave me much cheering up, and I ended up feeling great and happy with what I came up with! Yummmm....



Squid Spaghetti, with lots of garlic and Parmesan cheese for my lunch...



Chocolate Mud Cake with Starbucks' double espresso sauce, for tea time...



And my favorite Grilled Salmon with Baked Potatoes and Mango Salad, for dinner!

Hhmmm... how I wish I could update my blog more frequently!
