How time flies and it's only four more months for 2015 to ends. Well, I was kinda busy last week and didn't really update my blog and all of a sudden, I find myself writing the first post for August. Anyway, not a bad day today for the first working day of August as I finally found a running partner for the Standard Chartered Half Marathon. My Deputy Director, who was quite a fast runner, decided to take part in this event and I bet he will have to wait for me at the finishing line. hahaha... He usually paced around 5 mins + to 6 mins + for a 15KM run and ran non-stop. Phew... And, he's a trained policeman in his younger days.
Another good news in running is my ex-boss asked me to join her for a 10KM charity run in early September and in addition, great to see another colleague of mine interested too. We signed up together today. Well, thus, I have two runs lined for me for the rest of 2015, one in early Sept and another one in early Dec. I finished my last run in early July and the schedule looks quite balance. It's almost 2 months apart for all the three races.
Ok, nothing grand for dinner tonight after my workout at the gym on a rainy day. It's been raining the whole day till evening. It's just ginger deer meat rice with a sunny side up. It helps to warm me up. :)
Have a great week!
I don't eat deer meat, I only eat the standard animal
ReplyDeleteLibby- For me, I like deer meat especially in ginger and onion sauce like this one above. :)
DeleteNow that sure looks good! Love the crispy frills around the edges of the egg while the yolk is still runny! Absolutely perfect! Standard way of cooking venison, very nice. Very popular around here.
ReplyDeleteSTP - Yes, sometimes I like these simple hawker centres which has quality in dishing out some nice food.
Deleteyeah it's August already!! 4 months left till the end of the year, are you planning a holiday?? haha.. errr I think you are still not lagging in blogging, at least you still have regular posts to update the blog, unlike many who have gone dormant, haha..
ReplyDeleteSK - Yup, will be planning after miss out the previous one but will be somewhere nearby.
DeleteOK la... just 1 post last week compared to my usual 2-3 posts per week, consider lag.
Both of you must you must be having poor Maths or using a special calendar that has 4 months left. I thought it should be almost 5 full months dei.
Deletewow, looks like you are more and more into running already and you influenced people around.. see, kena ajak by boss and ex-boss to run together leh, so fun!! but just two more runs only?? errr, add more to make it once a month la~~
ReplyDeleteSK - yeah man but I also need to improve my timings and mileage else I look good only but no substance..hahaha
Deleteooh today's plate is a little different.. not Japanese and not Western but something rather local.. hehe, actually looks quite appetizing also woh.. :)
ReplyDeleteSK - yeah, it was a rainy day thus I settled with a simple dinner but delicious!
DeleteI love deer meat. But must cook to tender otherwise too tough to chew. Long time did not eat deer meat.
ReplyDeleteNice rice meal you have here.
Good luck in your upcoming runs. Sound you would be busy training and running for the rest of 2015.
Rose - The meat is a bit tender and hard. It should be tender else not nice.
DeleteThanks for the encouragement.
I like deer meat, deer meat is nice...
ReplyDeleteSharon - Yup yup :)
DeleteOooo, I know this dish - keong choong lok yok.. Sedap.. I can eat a lot of rice with the ginger gravy alone..
ReplyDeletePrincess - yes, you are right!!!
DeleteI love deer meat stir fried in ginger! Very appetizing. And so perfect that your rice is topped with a sunny side up :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun training for the two races, Chris! :)
ReplyDeleteDeer meat, I had once, actually the texture is like pork only, haha, cannot really tell the difference la! :p
ReplyDeleteNice layout by the way =)
Doe A Deer, A Female Deer...
ReplyDeleteSo, Chris has eaten the yummy Deer!
He will now run faster than Mr Deputy Director!
Oh yes, it seems that everyone loves tender deer meat with ginger!
I ate them many times too and once the Western Chef roasted it with some honey sauce in China.
Over here, it is not cheap and normally the captain had to announce its availability to take special orders.
Good that you are embarking into longer running distance now. Wear good shoes, listen to SONY bluetooths and eat lots of deer meat to run faster like one okay! Wkakakaka
Hi Chris, its me....Lee from Canada. Holy Smoke, your "only 4 months till 2015 ends"...I'm sure not looking to that. We now enjoying a nice warm summer, and my spending time building up my ha ha, muscles swimming at our pool.
ReplyDeleteI certainly admire you with your running. Me? Nope, got a bad knee.
That ginger deer meat looks delicious! Wonder where they got the dear from?
Have a nice day.
Lee.
I like the new look in your blog, green colour, so pleasing to the eyes
ReplyDeleteNothing grand but still looks very delicious leh the plate of rice
ReplyDeleteIs still okay, at least you still have a post in a month, not like two three months once!! =]
