Yeah, I grew up with eggs on the menu daily. I had always had an egg on my plate whether a boiled egg or a fried egg. At night, occasionally I had an omelet for my dinner. My non-regular habit started when I was small or it could be a baby. My father wanted me to grow become a smart girl and he believed by routine eating eggs each morning, especially half-boiled eggs, the child would grow up excellent. Although lived in a tiny village, my menus were quite decent compared to other villagers. Egg, milk, meats, all those were luxury items at the time that...

In this article, I would like to share a healthy beef soup by choosing beef tripe meat.

On other days for most of the whole year, it was just a random veggies menu complete with fried tempeh, fried tofu, or cracker. If they picked another protein, the egg was the choice.  Every household would buy chicken meat and made a chicken curry or soup (Indonesian soup) on that special occasion. Meanwhile, beef, only high society afford and bought it. So, meat wasn't a daily menu in my hometown at that time, it was a special menu for a special occasion or event. No wonder, the old ge...

Here in Singapore, we feel easier as the government eases the COVID-19 restriction one example: we can pull off the mask when we walk at a specific place aka open space like the HDB apartment corridor, walking to the market, in a park et cetera. However, you may find out that mostly want to keep masks on although the regulation is much more relaxed now.
