Tutorial • Deco Egg Sheet

Image
Hi! I'm back with another blog post, a tutorial on how to make Deco Egg Sheet :) The egg sheets I make are more like a thin egg omelette, without adding corn starch, that's the way K-bros prefer. Adding corn starch results in a smoother egg sheet but also a more rubbery texture. I'm sharing the making of snowmen egg sheet here. Let's begin! ↖(^ω^)↗ Ingredients: 2 Eggs ½ tsp Sugar Carrot, slice & parboiled Crabstick, parboiled Black Sesame Seeds Sushi seaweed (optional) Tiny bit of Mayo Oil to grease pan Tools: Flat frying Pan & Spatula Choice of Bento/Lunch Box Cutting board Teaspoon Toothpick Cutters (depends on your design) Method: •Prepare 2 small bowls, A & B.

 A visit to the strawberry farm for some PYO (Pick-your-own) fun during the  Australia winter season has gotta be 1 of the highlights of the holiday!

There's no time limit, just take it slow and walk down the patch for more red berries. Budding flowers! Juicy Big Red Strawbies! K-bros got over excited & filled up the bowl in no time! After harvesting enough st...

We did a fly-drive holiday to Queensland Australia during the June school holidays, covering  Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. After checking out of Paradise Country Farmstay, we checked -in to this 2-bedroom Airbnb apartment for 7 nights. The 2-bedroom apartment Outside the apartment block Information/Tour brouchures at main entrance Why did I choose this Airbnb apartment? It fits all my criteria: -Centrally located at Surfers Paradise My plan was either to stay at Broadbeach or Surfers Paradise. Finally decided on this particular apartment base on the rest of the criteria below. Very please with this booking, this walk-up apartment was only 5 minutes walk to Coles and other amentities like Woolworths,  Surfers beach, the thrice weekly evening bazaar were a few more minutes walk from Coles. It is near the busy stretch of Surfer's yet it isn't noisy at all! Brownie point: 5 minutes walking distance to the meeting point for our whale watching cruise! ...
