~ Kitchen Maestro Stuff Up ~

Today marks an exact month since we got married. Exactly one month ago to the minute, I was on my way to the rose gardens in the bridal car, having bided my time for the last 15 minutes in a small room in the reception hall, so that I could arrive fashionably late - 15 minutes, no more, no less. It is traditional, after all, to expect an errant guest or two ("5.05pm... relaaaaax, the bride sure to be late one!") and to keep the groom on his toes.

"Wah lau."

To celebrate our first month together, I was toying with either whipping up a meal of Lemon Grass and Lime Fish Parcels, or Seasoned Cold Soba Noodles with Smoked Salmon. Got the list of ingredients down for both, and went out to get the goods. Came back and realised that instead of getting coriander, I had gotten a bunch of green basil leaves. And yes, I can tell them apart.

I have never liked coriander. I only sprinkle them on my noodles to make them look like the old Myojo Mee ads, but I don't like the taste of them. By that same token, too much basil tastes like licorice - something neither Tony nor I can stomach. I dunno what I was thinking really, but somehow when reading the recipe, I must've imagined the pictures to include basil and because they smelled so good in my head, I went and got them. Crap.

Off to a roaring start.

Actually, my hair was parted to the left the entire wedding, but it was so windy during the photoshoot that my bangs were blown back, hence the rather large forehead. :)

Hello, heartless one. Didn't even bother to tell me that you got hitched to such a fine man?! HAha.

Please, send my regards to your hubby. Just a quickie (No, I mean a quick update, you perv). Been working in Seoul for the past 4 months. Looks set to work longer here. See through my eyes. E-mail me to get the password to see her. Hehe. Get you to keep in touch.

Hey! I think your wedding picture is so lovely. The whole occasion must have been romantic. Time to toss your tomboyish ways out of the window! HAha. I wish to tell your hubby that he is a brave man to take up the challenge of taming you! HAHAHahahaha...sorry, lame joke.

We're truly happy for you, Ms Velle. Heh.

Love & Memory,
Jer & Young
