Food and Cooking Story

One more day to go before saying goodbye to 2012. This year is not been good year,I lost my beloved brother,3 hamsters,was promised for the new position but I lost it to a 22 years old fresh graduate,moved but I have to wait for another 1 1/2 years before I can get my new house (technically I'm being duped by the developer,damn!).

So looking forward to great year ahead. My resolutions? Not much,start with healthy eating. I admit I skipped lunch a lot this year,mainly because of what happened in my lousy life I lost my appetite. And I'm too tired to cook something when I got home. Seriously when I watched Food Network channel,I keep wondering why we can't get those convenient ready cut & washed veges,deboned chicken thighs and sliced/cubed beef in supermarkets here? Plus they don't offer the service to do it for me like the butcheries in Western countries. I have to rely on myself then end up making big mess in kitchen.

I started blogging in 2010,wrote about recipes from my grandma and food I grew up with. It didn't last long though because I don't know how to carry on writing the recipes and make it more interesting for the readers to read. 2011,a girl on Facebook asked me to upload my custom sims to a blog,so this is it Sweet Sims. :)
Instead of opening a new blog about food because I don't think I can manage 2 blogs at once,so this post is specially for my food story.


Peanut Butter Fudge
This was my second attempt of making fudge. This one was quite sweet,since they don't sell marshmallow creme here,I substitute it with mini marshmallows and evaporated milk. I didn't do the softball stage testing,just boiled for 5 minutes,beat until it lost glossy looking texture then poured in square pan.



Lemon Cupcakes
I made these for my younger brother,he liked the icing which I didn't care much about. Very grainy as you can see,although I've sifted the icing sugar.
This recipe is by Rachel Allen.



Butter Cake
This was from box butter cake mix,tasted quite good for box mix.I added lemon juice into the icing because I don't like plain butter cream icing. I posted this picture on FB,lots of my friends liked it hehehe.. :)



Lemon Squares
When I watched that latest Scream 5 on HBO and saw the police officer gave lemon squares to her superior,decided to make one batch myself. Tasted sweet,buttery and very lemony,like them.




What I Ate

Seafood Feast
I took this dinner picture last year,during short vacation with my partner. This place serves excellent seafood he likes the crabs very much,especially Chili Crabs even though they aren't as spicy as Singapore style version.In this picture I ordered Black Pepper Crabs for him,to try something different. Then we had Lemon Chicken,Cereal Prawns (both my favourites) and mixed veges plus egg soup (which arrived late).
Yumm....



Lunch,White Pepper Noodles
Made from packet noodles but the broth was way too peppery for my liking.Added prawns and green mustard leaves.


Lunch,Chicken Curry Noodles(咖喱鸡干面)
This is dry version,I love it! Not too spicy but fragrant with curry leaves,with huge chunks of chicken pieces and potatoes.Ordered it with soy bean milk during weekend lunch out.



Midnight snack(???) Blueberry Pancakes
Ok I made this last night,home alone and I couldn't sleep until 3 am. I found small packet of blueberries in fridge and decided to make something easy,the berries burst out as I cooked the pancakes,woh! Served with maple syrup,next time I might reduce baking powder because there's metallic taste with using 2 teaspoons.Not as fluffy as McDonald's breakfast cakes but they're home made. :)

oh yes..I am left handed,so does my father and one of my brother.When I was young I thought I'm not a normal person just because majority people I saw are right handed. The other day after I sharpen cooking knife,it felt 'heavy' at one side. Not sure if it's because my left hand or the angle I hold the knife when sharpening it. Being lefty can be incovenient sometimes,especially when using scissors,putting hair clip and sliding those buttons on iPhone and iPad. People gave me this weird look when I signed papers/receipts in public using my left hand. Why? Am I that different? Famous actress like Nicole Kidman are lefty as well right? :p



I ate a lot,when I'm in the mood and have huge appetite. Got to love those sweet stuff and greasy fried food. Surprisingly I'm still maintained my weight,55 kg until now. I stand 5'4,when I see my cousins with their tall and big figures,I can't help but thinking I should eat more and more so I can become like them lol.
Crazy..yeah. Well at least I'm glad I have my appetite back,that's important. I don't want to skip any meal if I can.I had been diagnosed with mild stomach ulcer in 2007,thank God it wasn't serious doctor prescribed me with pills and advised me to drink cabbage juice. Yes the juice worked wonders,really hope I don't have to go back again to the doctor because he thought I had eating disorder. That's awful,I had lost 11 kg in one month (54 went to 43kg) when I was in college but I was certain it wasn't because I'm anorexic or had eating disorder. I just lost my appetite! :D

Well I gained back my weight after I start working,still I skipped breakfast and lunch sometimes. I simply not very fond to idea of going to the cafeteria eat together with my colleagues. I went with them it 3 times,once with my boss,wasn't good experience. I feel awkward and left out,I just don't know how to join their conversation which involves talking about their misbehave students and boyfriends/fiancees/husbands all the time. The usual stuff among women,but still I'm not that close to them to share my personal life during lunch hours.
So what do I do? Bring my own snacks of course,eat them in office (when I don't have morning class) which is great because I'm not the only one doing this hehehe. I packed red bean steamed buns,chocolate muffins,P&J sandwich. I can't eat too much or else I'll fall asleep at 10 am morning,it did happen twice haha! :)

I wish EA would produce new expansion pack like Sims 2 Open For Business again for TS3,I just love the food and running my little bakery serving customers and selling beautiful desserts. Since I have Supernatural and Seasons EP,so my next wish is OFB. I want my bakery back! :D

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Hello everyone,

I want to wish a very wonderful Christmas to my family,friends and the whole sims community. I just got back from vacation,not enough sleep and still tired here so couldn't write much. Anyway,hope you guys have great time with family and friends,Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from me. Take care.

Enchanting Fairies Pose Set

一个月放假我不知道要做什么.PS3 games还有很多要玩但现在太懒了.这里天天下雨(没有下雪)很爱睡哦!坐在床上抱抱枕头,然后喝巧克力牛奶嘻嘻!

Ok back to my new pose set,this is called Enchanting Fairies. I was looking at my Ballet Pose Set the other day then decided to create this set.Hope they are enchanting enough for your sweet fairy sims.

Hesitation at first,yes because I have mottephobia. Those flapping wings,especially the big ones scares the hell out of me. Same thing happened to TS3,I downloaded butterfly looking "fairy wings" from various creators but nearly all of them makes me want to run away from my desktop. They are scary! So in this set,please forgive me for using Photoshop brushes for the wings. I admit the brushes are not as scary as the TS3 cc version but some of them still made me very uncomfortable.
It's hard to explain this fear of moths and butterflies,unless you suffer the same problem,with any kind of phobia like me. I do have a friend who's afraid of egg yolk. So no sunny side up in her morning rice porridge.Let alone asking her to separate egg whites from the yolk to bake cookies,because she will run away from the kitchen. It sounds ridiculous but with phobia your fears doesn't have to make sense.

The screenshots I showed here are for suggestion only,you can use the poses anyway you want.Also this is amateur work,hence the crappy editing,so please don't be harsh. Models are by me Cherri and Imari.

Sweet Moments Pose Set

这两个星期心情不好,家里太多事发生.我的Barbara已经消失了.我哭也没有用她不可能回来. :(
What happened was unforgivable,my heart feels like being ripped apart when thinking all the regrets and pains.

*but smile anyway*

I came out with new couple pose set,this time for male & female sims. There's some people was shocked after seeing the poses I made for my gay couple (H & K,我真的对不起!) I apologize if they considered as inappropriate but I believe true love shouldn't be judged based on genders. I love my sims they way are,no matter what other people say. Ok my confession,I've read WAY TOO MUCH YAOI..so ignore this. :P

My original plan was to make poses from Rihanna's song Unfaithful,with well-built muscular male sim as model. Then I changed my mind because I don't know how to tweak sims facial expressions,moved on with usual couple poses. In this set the male sim supposed to be Jerek,a blonde Caucasian looking sim but I'm having problem getting him to show up in my game,so does other custom male sims after I patched.It didn't go as I planned but the poses works fine though,I've tested several times.
As you can see,I just used whatever I have here. I made new male sim model,Kazuha based on Lucius face,trying hard to make him as masculine as I can but in the end to me he still looking girly..aarggh.. Well I've tried my best for the screenshots. Let's pretend Kazuha was a host who worked on local club and my lonely sim,Cherri was his client. They are having "sweet moments" together for few nights,and then the end. Yes that's the story. *cringed*
hey I was listening to Garbage song You Look So Fine when I made this set so don't blame me! :P

If some of these poses seems familiar,I hope you guys like my version. Thank you for staying with me all this time and supporting my work. :)

Deadly Doll Pose Set

Hello again!

It's near Halloween,so I came up with this idea when I played one my favourite doll,Megumi-chan. She is in her usual sweet-girly innocent kind of doll which can be boring,so I thought I'm going to give her different image this time.
How about she cry blood tears when feeling lonely? Then have this scary urge to kill someone with a huge knife? Complete with cute smile on her lips? Ok if you meet this doll during Halloween night and she invited you to come over to her place,will you say yes?

We don't celebrate Halloween here so I don't know how's exactly it feels like.When I watch Halloween event on movies I really love the way small children dressed up in cute costumes going trick-treat in neighbourhood. So adorable! But an American friend I met in gaming forum told me that now due to safety reason they only allow children trick-treat during day time,not after the dark. She said there might be real danger during Halloween night even though she doesn't believe in it but she prefer to be careful.
That's another reason I came out with poses. Megumi might look innocent enough to fool with but you'll never what will happen when she show the real side of herself. :)

Cover



I had so much fun dressing this doll up during this pose making. So thank you to all dress creators! oh here Megumi is hanging out in front of her new house.
Deadly Doll 1



Deadly Doll 2



Deadly Doll 3 This is my personal favourite.She's supposed to be smiling but I don't want to mess up her facial expression so yeah.. :)



Deadly Doll 4 No sir,I'm not going to cut your hair! *smile*



Deadly Doll 5 Alright this is Megumi actual face before I put the blood tears. She does have innocent look and saying "Don't be afraid of me!".
I couldn't find suitable umbrella except for this one but just use anything you have. :)

Desire (Boys Love) Pose Set FOR ADULTS ONLY

IF YOU'RE BELOW 18 YEARS OLD PLEASE LEAVE. 这不是给18岁以下看


我回来了! :D

After nearly half year of abandoning my sims,I'm back with new pose set. 6 months is long time I forgot what is a rig file and everything feels very awkward in MS. But I managed to come out with something like this set.I finished them in less than a week,broke my record! I feel very very tired now but who cares? So this is my desire to see my sims couple doing the intimate moves. Ok let's get naughty shall we?

Alright,first this set contains adult stuff,so WARNING THIS IS FOR 18YRS ABOVE ONLY,NOT FOR MINORS.
Second,this set inspired by boys love,which is my latest addiction (lol!) IF you're not comfortable with same sex couple doing intimate stuff,click X on your browser. Thank you!
Oh I was listening one of my favourite song when I created this. A Love Suicide(Rule of Rose OST),very perfect because that was what I thought when I made this couple last year. ahh...我知道这就是爱.
As I'm typing here I could feel my heart thumping. don't know why
The lyrics

Say where is my shame,
When I call your name?
So, please don’t set me free
I’m as heavy as can be
I will do you harm
I will break my arm
I am a victim of your charms

I want to be dead
When I’m in bed
I can be so mean
You can beat me
I would like to shame you
I would like to blame you
Just because of my love to you


Third,my sims skins are Barbie,meaning they are not anatomy correct so if you want to make them look more realistic(male/female)I suggest downloads at SimsSexy. (You need to be 18 to register).
Fourth,I don't want to mess with the eyebrows,I leave them but you can change in CAS for their facial expression.
This set made with male rigs but you can try them on female sims as well. Screenshot can be taken on left/right side of the couple but most of them are meant to be viewed on certain spots only. See mine below.


Desire 1&2


Desire3&4


Desire5&6
Inspired by one of my favourite yaoi,where the uke is a Chinese so cute!


Backshot. Seriously,I need a leash! :)

This set has been tested in my game everything worked fine,if you have problem let me know here.
By the way,Silent Hill Downpour sucks! Give me back my money Konami I never thought they could ruined the great franchise with so-called survival horror nonsense by Vatra. SH Shattered Memories wasn't the worse,but Downpour is. First 40 minutes of playing, I saw nothing but a bad imitation of "Alan Wake+Dead Space+Alone in The Dark".Clearly Vatra have no idea what Silent Hill is all about. There's no major boss fight,lame combat,enemies are small sized and to Mr. Daniel Lich,I'm not impressed at all there's nothing to feel anymore except for the bad music of yours.
Since Silent Hill has gone down the hill,I off to play Shadows of The Damned now. With excellent reviews I'm sure this one is going to be good. Also,I can enjoy Akira Yamaoka masterpiece again in Shadows of the Damned. Oh Lord he's a genius!

End of rant. :D

See you guys again next time! 再见!
