My Budget Menu Plan for 1 week

So i went to WongKok Wet Market ( it's now located at Cybercity ya) yesterday and bought myself a whole bunch of veggies, fruits, chicken and fish hehe.. I haven't really plan my menu yet, but since i already bought them, so i have to plan my 1 week menu based on the items.

So here is my list:

1. Pakis ( Pucuk paku) - RM2
2. Carrot - RM2
3. Tomato - RM3
4. Chicken Thigh - RM4.50
5. Ikan kembung (7)- RM 7
6. Watermelon - RM7  *Current price RM2/kg*
7. Papaya - Rm1.8 *Current Pricce RM1.8/kg*
8. Fresh Chilli - RM1 *Current price RM2.5/kg*
9. Onion, Garlic, Daun limau Purut - RM 2
10. Lime - RM2
11. Bread - RM3

Total : RM 35.30 

So that's basically gonna be my menu this week hehe.

Now, how should i 'compose' my menu :D... Yesterday's lunch i already cook the pucuk paku and ikan kembung. The menu was  ' Pucuk Paku masak pedas' and 'Ikan kembung goreng'. Delicious lunch i must say hahaha...

The pucuk paku can be eaten for 2 times, so right after i cook, i put half into container, let it coll for a while and keep it in the freezer. And i happily finish out the 1 ikan kembung goreng :D.

For tomorrow's lunch box to office, i'm gonna cook 'Ayam paprik'. The ingredients are simple :  Chicken, carrot, long bean ( i still have it since last week ), chilli, tomato&chilli sauce, garlic.


I'll post the recipe later :D.

Till then, happy Sunday!

Change ‘Edit Top 200 Rows" on SQL 2008

Working with live data and 'concerned' clients, i always have to recheck and modify data from database using SQL 2008. 

The default value for editing table only 200 rows, and the rest i have to do it using script. A bit tedious because i cannot actually read the data and edit it. 

But here is the solution yey :D

Tools >Options >SQL Server Object Explorer, Expand this tree > ‘Commands’

I change the '200' to 0 , and i will get all data :)

Hope this will help :)

This pregnancy and my skin become all dry..

When some people says during pregnancy you'll glow and the skin will be softer, plumper and beautiful. Well not everything is a myth, but it's all depend on the person. For me my skin become dry and i sometimes feel like an alligator :(

Now in my 15 weeks, my baby bump become obvious. I am now having problem putting lotion on my leg..It's quite hard to bend haha..i have to sit down and take my leg up so i can put the lotion on. 

How do i prevent or at least minimize the dry skin? Based on some reading i found out that:

1.  Warm but not hot.

Having frequent hot shower / bath will take away the moist on the skin. So avoid it. Try to just lukewarm water. Our skin is not like a sponge (the more it on water the more it absorb), no. Hot water will strip your skin from its natural oil barrier.

2. Avoid alcohol contained cleanser.

Alcohol can make your skin dryer. If can wash with soapless cleanser.

3. Cover up

Never never go out without sunblock. Me myself i use at least SPF30.  Use any sunscreen product suits you.

Well there you go, 3 tips but at least some idea rite :)

   

No juicing during pregnancy?

Yes of course you can!

 During my first trimester i have a very very i mean very bad all day sickness. I lost 5kgs just in 3 months. I would be so happy loosing weight if i'm not pregnant :D .

I really need to get all the nutrient i can get for my baby, but i can't barely eat anything. So i decided to drink lot and lots of juice to gain nutrient. Of course with meal too. During pregnancy you cannot do juice diet! No no and no. Detoxing by juice diet will harm your baby, since you will flush the toxin through your bloodstream and end up you pump it to your baby. So again NO, drink juice but eat your meal.

Here is one juice that i really love.

Ingredients:
1. Cucumber
2. Carrot
3. Celery

Blend it all together and drink immediately. It's yummy!
