Laughing all the way to Christmas

I am doing this too often. I replied to emails and SMSs' thinking that they were sent but they stayed in my outbox for days. I don't even realize it. I only notice that I'm confused when I do a house cleaning on emails and text messages. I would love to blame it on my computer and my handphone like a bad carpenter miight blame his tools.  But, the other day when my sister in law came to visit me, it is confirmed that there are no tools to be blamed. I was being “Lucy” again!!

My Conversation with my Sister in law (SIL)

SIL: Hey, why you never reply my sms ar?

Lucy: Yes I did. I always reply messages.

SIL: No lah, there is no reply from you.  (She said this after spending a few minutes checking through her handphone)

Lucy: Aiyah, your handphone something wrong lah, time to change. (I said this while checking through the records on my handphone.)

SIL: Got record in your phone that you sent the sms to me ar?

Lucy: Wait, wait, checking…. OH S@*T!!!

SIL: hahaha, you cannot find the record right? Some more, you blame my phone “lou ya” (old phone).

Lucy: I found the record but it is in my outbox, not send wor? Why ar?

SIL: hahaha you typed the reply and forgot to send lor.

Lucy: Ya lor. While talking with her, "Lucy"  hurriedly pressed the send button) DUH!!!!

(My SIL’s handphone beeped!, she finally received the sms from me)

SIL: You just sent that sms to me???  Aiyoh, you crazy ar?

Lucy:  Yor lor, why did I do that?? SO STUPID right?? Not only stupid but I just wasted 30 sen!!

SIL: “Say ler” (Die ) you are growing old and stupid! hahahaha

We both laughed so hard that we teared.  Have any of you have done something as ridiculous as Lucy? Share  your stories with us lah, so that we can all laugh our way to Christmas and also you can help to make Lucy feel not so alone. LOL!

After both my SIL and I managed to stop laughing we went into the kitchen and finally settled down, had a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a healthy dessert, baked apples. YUM!

Baked Apples Recipe

Adapted from simply recipe with modification

Ingredients:

4 large good baking apples, such as Rome Beauty, Golden Delicious, or Jonagold 

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ tsp nutmeg

¼ tsp ground ginger

1/4 cup chopped pecans

1/4 cup currants or chopped raisins

1 Tbsp butter

3/4 cup boiling water

METHOD:

Preheat oven to 375°F. Wash apples. Remove cores to 1/2 inch of the bottom of the apples. It helps if you have an apple corer, but if not, you can use a paring knife to cut out first the stem area, and then the core. Use a spoon to dig out the seeds. Make the holes about 3/4-inch to an inch wide. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, currants/raisins, and pecans. Place apples in a 8-inch-by-8-inch square baking pan. Stuff each apple with this mixture. Top with a dot of butter (1/4 of the Tbps). Add boiling water to the baking pan. Bake 30-40 minutes, until tender, but not mushy. Remove from the oven and baste the apples several times with the pan juices. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream on the side.

Note: I used 8 mini apples because I could not resist buying them. They are just too pretty and cute. The red and green color is SO Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all who celebrates Christmas 
and 
Happy Holidays to those who don't.

May your dreams come true and may you all have lots of peace and happiness.

Lots of love
