Inside Hot, Outside Cold!

here i am. cooking dinner for them. i am making sweet sour chicken and stir fry Pak Choy for them to go with plain rice.

i have difficulty using the electricity stove. everything seem so difficult to get heat up.
lucky i started to cook earlier so dinner still gets on time at 6pm! yummy......


here is CO-OP, where we can find limited "fresh" products...err.... actually they had been travelling for the past 24hrs before they can reach here.



everything was so expensive. i cannot find my Choy Sum or Kai Lan :(
i did saw some miserable soft Bean sprouts... nope, not the fresh crunchy type.....

guess what? a pineapple cost about S$8 plus??!?!?!?!?!?!

a Buang kwang (turnip) cost me about S$7 plus, which i can get in Singapore for ...say.... S$1.50?? but i need them to make spring roll for them.
they love deep fried spring rolls and sweet sour pork!

it's my very first experience to shovel snow on walkways.
it was snowing the night before, the snow is soft and fluffy. when i threw it out it actually flew like it was snowing.

but the moment i move it or stepped on it, it become compact, heavy and harder to shovel.

last saturday, just one day before i arrive in Yellowknife, the temperature was -35degree C, with a windchill of -46 degree C!!! (windchill = windy and temperature drops even lower)

as this place started off as a Gold Mines, now a diamond mines plus a exotic travlling place for tourist who wanted to explore the north icy climate and also to view the Northern Lights.
