And after rushing back to KL, got another meeting here at 4pm. I reach home about 2.30pm... n damm hungry... Selongkar peti sejuk.. tak de apa yang ready cook, just ada pear n epal.. hmm... thinking of what i'm going to do with this epal n pear... and decided to make poached pear... coz tak lama.. its just about 20 minutes... and sementara tunggu pear masak... i sempat la nak segarkan badan b4 go for the next meeting. So i poached the pear using whatever i have in hand... gula melaka n spice...
