First Accomplishment: Curry Crab!

CurrycrabOk ok, so its not quite Chinese food – in fact its inspired from a Fine Vietnamese restaurant Saigon Star in Richmond Hill, Ontario.  We’ve ventured there on several occasions (usually special occasions -out of town guests, bdays…etc) paying about $28 for this famous Curry Crab dish when today, I paid about $15 for it!  That is:

  • Crab $10
  • Curry Paste $2 (I used about 2 tbsps of a 500ml jar)
  • Onions $2 (1 used 1 of like 10)
  • Ginger $1 (I used maybe a 1/2 inch worth)
  • Coconut milk $1(I used the more expensive – higher fat one)

So altogether its probably about $10 really :) but its so easy!  What a way to kick off my cooking attempts :)  What’s next?

Wii Active :)

Wii Active :)

I should probably be writing a new post for this but since Jan. 1st I’ve been routinely following the WiiActive 30 Day Challenge and I’m down to 121lbs from 126 i think at the beginning of the year? I can’t remember…regardless, I feel great and its so much fun :)  I think I mentioned it in an earlier post that I had gained about 40lbs during my pregnancy – keeping in mind that I had been a little under my typical weight pre-pregnancy.  Anyway, at my heaviest I was about 151lbs and I’m hoping to go down to 113…so we’ll see how it goes!

=P
