Went over to MLB's after work today to check up on how she's doing coz she wasn't feeling well and called in sick in the morning as well as to return her mom's laptop which I have finally finished souping up.

And then it was time for me to shower some attention on my own mom. She's just come back from a holiday in Perth. Besides, I am not really in the running for the 'son of the year award'. Should at least try, eh?

I've already visited her last week but this week's visit just now was a little different. Usually it's only about my mom piling food after food after food on my plate and the tabletop in front of me..... *pause for thought*.

Uh.

Actually today was also the same. Ah ha ha. Just that I also made the effort to lug over my sister Banana's 20 inch TV to my mom's. Hers died all of a sudden last weekend and since Banana's was just lying around in our house, she offered it to mom.

Mom was of course a happy camper. She couldn't go through another day without her Indonesian TV. Hence I declare the act of lugging a 20 inch TV on my wobbly knees my Mothers' Day gift to her!

Ha ha, cheapskate!!!

Anyway I was also a happy camper. It's not the best of analogies but my mom is like my private food genie. Haven't eaten her cooking for a while so the moment I saw her last week I wished for a dish called 'daging masak kicap' or mutton in soy sauce (Yikes! I'm a cannibal!) and *voila*, today I got it.

Them. Not 'it'.

Besides the soy sauced mutton, there was also fried chicken, cockles in some kinda soupy thing, beef rendang and some liquidy chilli sauce thing. All in unlimited supply.

I had four scoops of rice and one or two helpings of each of the dishes listed on top with five spoonfuls of chilli sauce, but THAT was only the first round.

Had another round immediately after, the same, no half time break whatsoever, but even THAT was just the second round.

This time I had a short break followed by a third round of five large scoops of Rocky Road Reloaded ice cream AND a fourth round of five more large scoops of Peppermint ice cream. Both in a big bowl. Obviously.

In other news, I bought another pouch. Ok bye.
