Hi there! I’m Samantha,

and this space encompasses my personal milestones made beautiful in His time. Combining my flair for easy-to-read writing and my love for photography, here you'll find me sharing the thing I'm most passionate about - travel, food, fashion and my conversations with God.

*P.S when God was blessing others with the gift of height, He left me out realizing that great things come in tiny packages, so instead I am gifted with endless energy and a big wide smile to get through difficult times.

Forever & always, a child of God. Through this cozy little virtual haven, I hope each post inspires at least someone out there with my life stories.

Are you planning your next event?

There’s always something for everyone at Temptations Cakes, let us celebrate your next special event (be it a birthday party, baby's first month, wedding, christmas, you name it!) and create lovely memories with you.

Mister Potato Rice Crisps

CRAZY?
That's my middle name!

I'm not a great fan of FOOD, don't call me a FOOD JUNKIE... Unless... WHEN THE HUNGER PANGS (Hunger pangs are used to describe the contractions of your empty stomach as it expresses its great upset in being left unfed.) come in! That, I have no choice and it's something I can't control. I TELL MYSELF: I GOT TO EAT OR ELSE I WILL REGRET WHEN I GET GASTRIC!


HOW CRAZY CAN I GET WHEN I'M HUNGRY?

Let me tell you a little secret: When I was 14 years old, I ever called my BFF at 2am, just to tell her I'm hungry! :/

The 1st phone call
Sam: OMG OMG OMG!
Friend: (Half asleep) HELLO WHAT UH?
Sam: AYE ARE YOU AWAKE?
Friend: Uh.. Ya Ya... Why you OMG?
Sam: I SUPER HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!
Friend: HUH?! You call me just to tell me that?
Sam: Uh Yes...
Friend: OMG OMG OMG! (Same tone as my initial OMG!) WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO?
Sam: Good question. I don't know....
Friend: Your house no food meh? Call MACS delivery la? A few more hours can eat Macs BREAKFAST delivery already (She was being sarcastic)
Sam: Uh no need la, I lazy call. Got Maggie Mee, but I lazy cook at such an hour lehhh... Still need to wash bowl later
Friend: WAHHH YOU LAZY TO CALL DELIVERY THEN YOU NOT LAZY TO CALL ME AHHH!
--- I can't believe I answered that call ---
Sam: Ya hor.......

The 2nd phone call (Nowadays...)
Sam: HELLO!
Friend: HELLO! MAC DELIVERY? SORRY WRONG NUMBER.
PLEASE CALL _____________
Sam: OMG -.-|||

Don't worry, this is how we communicate, haha!

*********

CAUTION!
NOWADAYS I DON'T REALLY BOTHER MY FRIENDS.
INSTEAD, LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT I DO!

I shall split this into the practical and not-so-practical actions.
Normally, it's the not-so-practical actions BEFORE thinking logically and deciding to get some food.

1) EXPRESS MY HUNGER FOR FOOD ONLINE
I normally get hungry suddenly when using the internet. Beats me!
Thus, I will spam my social networking accounts like Facebook/Twitter, claiming 'I'M SO HUNGRY I CAN EAT UP A COW!'...


Why do I do that?
- I like it because it's instant; I get replies almost very immediately! For example,'OMG ME TOO ME TOO!' - This makes me feel that I'm not living in hunger alone. It's quite common, trust me on that.

- Err... Secretly hoping that a kind soul will buy me supper or send some food to my house? I don't mind if it's a private delivery! (Just kidding!)


2) POWER OF IMAGINATION
I will imagine myself munching on food... You know like when you need buckets of cold icy water to cool down after a heated run YET there isn't any available? Hmpf! So you see, for me, I will imagine the entire process of drinking that cold icy water, and by doing so, it can quench my thirst temporarily. I know this is weird, because for the majority, it makes people more hungry, but it works for me!

3) MY TALKING BUDDIES
Nope, they are not for real. Sad to say. They can't cook for me neither can I cook them!

Okay, so say HELLO to my soft toys. Muahaha.


How I wish they were for real, imagine it being deep fried or boiled. YUMMY!
WOW! -.-

Since young, I have this habit of talking to walls. I like it because no matter how I scold 'it', it can't scold me back!
So I've 'Upgraded' to talking to soft toys as I grow up. How amazing! *Clasps*

4) THINK OF THE CONSEQUENCES
Instead of convincing myself that I'm not hungry, I will convince myself that 'Eating (for most cases, Supper!) would make me bloated' and the feeling is very uncomfortable.


Actually, I'm just lazy to walk and get food...


Moving on to the more practical things, I got to PLEASE MY GRUMBLING TUMMY!

1) SHOPPING SPREE IN A SUPERMARKET!
I will head out to the supermarket and grab all my favourite snacking items! AND many of which are things I have never tried before. Like limited edited chocolates, etc


Yes, and the amount will total to about 1 big mountain cart of items! OMG!


2) FOOD AMAZING RACE
You know, when you are hungry, everything seems like good food to you. At least for me...
I will have cravings for my favourite food! These are some of them that I enjoy(:

1st stop: Get some sushi rolls
2nd stop: Thai Tung Hoon w Beef

3rd stop: Beancurd tarts and IceCream Mini Melts as Desserts!


However sometimes, I would feel really adventurous and have cravings to try things that I have never eaten before. HUNGER MAKES ME EAT ALMOST EVERYTHING SO IT INCREASE MY CHANCES OF TRYING THINGS I HAVE NOT TRIED BEFORE!

Conclusion: I will buy the food items from different stores just for variety sake...

3) FOOD MIX!
Since I have the tendency of stocking up food in my fridge, after my food spree(s), I will head to my fridge FIRST to dig for food when I'm hungry! YES CHARGE TO THE FRIDGE AND GRAB WHATEVER I FEEL LIKE EATING!

THE CRAZY THING I DO IS TO BE VERY ADVENTUROUS & START TO MIX MY FOOD!
My logic is: Everything in the fridge is chosen by me, which means I like eating them. So all e nice food mixed together, the combination will definitely turn out nice! ERRR... I hope so! :X



HAVE YOU EVER SINCE SPAGHETTI WITH SUCH WEIRD INGREDIENTS? Well, I didn't plan to make the dish (Sudden hunger right!) so I literally grab whatever I have at home :>

So the above are TUNA, EGG, FISHCAKE, MUSHROOMS. WOW!


That's potato cubes with garlic, carrots, brocolli & canned clams...


And the easy to make, SUSHI with chicken sausage! On the right is a crazy combination of fruits' platter! (:

4) DIAL FRIENDS & HEAD OUT FOR SUPPER!
OKAY THIS ONE IS CRAZY & ONLY POSSIBLE IF YOU HAVE CRAZY FRIENDS.
I'll show you my crazy girlfriends...

CHOMP CHOMP SUPPER AT 2am!
SO SINFUL!

We order all the Singapore local delights!

THE AFTERMATH...



We travel to the other side of Singapore for awesome supper. Good food and Good company, makes the journey worth-while!


*********

LET ME INTRODUCE YOU ALL TO THE ALL-NEW SNACK!


Suddenly....



HMMMM...


Let's check it out... What's that???
*Crawls to get it*

...


OOHHHHH!

MISTER POTATO RICE CRISPS!
A healthier alternative to the old potato chips...

Don't you just love it?

Mister Potato Rice Crisps comes in four flavours: Original, Sour Cream & Onion, Hot & Spicy and Flame Grilled BBQ!

I personally prefer the Hot & Spicy flavoured chips. They were so popular with my friends - When they came over for a swimming session the other day, they finished 2 cans of the chips within minutes! The chips were really addictive! Comments were that it feels healthier because there's not as much seasoning and also, the aftertaste tasted a little sweeter than normal potato chips prob because it's made of rice!

RICE VS POTATO.

BENEFITS?

  • No Added MSG
  • No Artificial Colouring
  • Cholesterol and Trans-Fat Free
  • 20% LESS Fat than Potato Chips
  • First of its kind in Singapore

Being a busy student balancing school life studies &

CCAs, church, part-time jobs, media, blogging activities, I find myself always in a rush to get from one place to another. Sometimes, I do so at the expense of my eating hours, so I have to grab a bite on-the-go and eat it while traveling.

It's so suitable for me because I can put it in my bag and eat it anytime of the day(:

On the way to lessons... In between lessons... Waiting on set while filming... During camps... etc!

I'm packing one in my bag, for school tml :>
SHHH! I'm gonna sneak it in for lectures, haha!

But before that, I'm putting them in the fridge cause I like my chips cold! HEH! :)

Better to be prepared and stock food in my bag, because you don't know when you will be hungry right?!!


"There’s no need to act like a madman because there is Mister Potato Rice Crisps for you to munch on, anytime, anywhere.”


XOXO,
SAM
