Kneipp Bath Salt Heublumen



This is my recent favorite herbal bath salt! I finally bought the largest 850g bottle, since it was on sale with many samples ;P

Kneipp's bath salt is derived from refined ancient seawater rock salt and natural herb (essential oil). It's natural Rock salt (minerals) keeps you warm and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth!

My favorite aroma is Heublumen (hay flower or wildflower in English). It has a similar addicting scent as geranium (my favorite herb). It helps me relax and balance my mind as well as my skin :D

Anyway, yesterday I took a day off to see my friend's baby. Her smile was really adorable. I mobile uploaded the photo on my facebook album ;)

How was your weekend?!

Ear Muffs

I bought new ear muffs (thanks for those who taught me it is not ear warmers)! I always wear hoodie when I feel cold, but since I don't want to mess up my hair, I decided to get one ;)

Oh, anyway, I am testing my darling for a while but it seems like he doesn't care having a pile of paper tubes (currently five!!!) in our restroom... If it comes to this, I would wait for him to throw them away!

Tomorrow, I am taking a day off from work. Sometimes nice to refresh. hehe.

Sweet And Sour Potato Pork Roll

This is my award winning recipe from Delcy's frozen vegetable contest.

I rolled up frozen potato wedges with slices of pork. Oyster sauce and black vinegar seasonings give Chinese style sweet and sour taste!

It of course goes great with white rice :)

---------------------------------
Sweet And Sour Potato Pork Roll

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 10min
Number of servings: 12 pieces

Ingredients:
12 thin slices of spare rib pork (any portion of sliced pork is okay)
12 frozen potato wedges
flour
salt and cracked black pepper
A
* 1 tbsp. soy sauce
* 1 tbsp. oyster sauce
* 2 tbsp. black vinegar
* 2 tsp. sugar
1/2 tbsp. sesame oil
thinly (lengthwise) sliced leek
red pepper threads

Directions:
1. Work with one slice of pork at a time. Place the slice of pork so that the length of it is running flat and vertically towards you. Sprinkle a bit of salt, cracked black pepper and flour onto one side and place the frozen potato wedge on the end of the pork close to you and start rolling. Repeat with the remaining pork slices and frozen potato wedges.
2. Heat sesame oil in a frying pan, place the rolls seam side down, make sure to flip the rolls so that all sides are cooked equally crisp and brown.
3. Add A and stir-fry until the seasonings blend.
4. Serve on a plate with thinly (lengthwise) sliced leek and red pepper threads on top.
