daylight savings officially started today

Woke up at 12 something without realizing that daylight saving has already started. So officially I woke up at 1 something and not 12 something. So sad, one hour loss when i can do so much in spring.

Anyway, weather was good and mood was good. So I had a good cooking fiesta day. After lunch, I baked some choc choc chip cookies which is a bit terrible as i do not have the proper equipment and utensils but tasted awesome. Reminds me of the choc choc chip ice cream at haagen dasz.
Then for dinner, hubs and I cooked tau eu bak (pork stew in soy sauce) and too thor thng (pig stomach soup) and had deep fried tau kua.

I didn't really enjoy it as it was too meaty and I miss my mom's tau eu bak as I had to 'adjust' my tau eu bak according to hub's taste with the 'spare parts' - cheong (pig's intestines) filled with egg.

The too thor thng also did not really taste like how my grandma used to cook. Not sure where I gone wrong but it was still edible.
and my deep fried taukua....
The menu planning was a bit off but it was still good. Next weekend, I should be having poh piah if i can find mangkuang, loh bak and kiam chye thng... *salivating*
