What is this

I think it's been pretty much established that our makanclub has become defunct based on the miserable number of posts dedicated to the one thing we promised to uphold on that fateful day at shobu shobu (or whatever that steamboat place we had our first makanclub outing in is called. I know it starts with an s, ends with a u and has a b somewhere in between) - food. It's like we've all turned anorexic.

As always, I will attempt to bring life into our once vibrant newsletter with whatever crap I can muster over the next few minutes. I quite honestly have no idea what the point of this post is going to be as yet. Hmm..it's coming, don't worry.

I suppose I could talk about our slow decline from cooking daily to not more than 4 times a week. Bear in mind we started out with good intentions. Heck, we even had a menu stuck to our refrigerator complete with the teams involved in cooking and washing everyday.

These days we just buy what we think we'll be cooking over the week with no menu in mind and randomly assign teams to cook and clean. Which obviously didn't work too well because it's a Thursday and we have nothing in our refrigerator save for some nectarines, fresh milk, 1 cookie which Steph bought like 2 months ago but has refused to eat because it sucks and my 3/4 full box of cereal which if memory serves me right will be expiring sometime this weekend.

So basically we've gone from planning a menu for everyday of the week save for Saturdays and Sundays to cooking 3 nights a week. First we were like "oh, let's scrap cooking on Fridays because we DESERVE to eat out after a long week." Now it's "We can't possibly cook on Thursday nights! Thursdays are such long days for us and we come back so tired!" (our last lecture ends at 5, followed by extra sessions for IMU students from 5.15 to 6.15pm which is seriously TORTURE I TELL YOU TORTURE. It's almost as bad as having to eat pork.) Simple arithmetic will tell you that we now only cook 3 nights a week and that I believe will soon change as Shiau Cern and I have decided to start attending bible study in church on Wednesday nights leaving us with little time to eat, let alone prepare dinner.

Now we know why companies like maggi mee, indomee and Yun Nam Hair Regeneration Centres are thriving.


Special message from Steph : I love bananas.
