Watermelon Juice

Fuhh!!! It's a hot, hot, hot day .... and night. The global weather is unpredictable with extreme cold in certain part of the world, extreme hot in the other, and rainy days for another. And the flood situation in Johor is not 100% recover yet after sooo many days. Apa hal le pulak dok cerita ceriti pasa weather ni? Ye la, bila hari-hari panas macam ni, kalau dapat minuman yang menyegarkan alangkah enaknya .... nyaman. Ini kepelbagaian jus tembikai. You can enjoy the watermelon juice the way you like it. Cut the watermelon into small pieces. Place it into the blender or juice extractor and let the machine do the wonders. And you, just pick up a glass, pour the juice into the glass and drink it. You may add some sugar if you like it sweet. For blender, dont forget to add water or else your blender wont work. Or, you can make an ice-blended water melon juice by adding few cubes of ice into the blender and blend it together with the melon. For the top juice, cut the melon into cubes...

Potato Salad

Salam, Ini selera Western. Done this before but forgotten due to the time lapse. I searched from the internet, from several web pages and I conclude it with my own style.

So, here it is: 3 potatoes - boiled to tender, then peel- don't forget to add salt to the boiling water, cut into cubes 1 table spoon of olive oil sprinkle of mixed herbs sprinkle of black pepper pinch of coarse sugar some spring onion First, place the olive oil in a bowl.
