Bad cooking experience...

Well, cooking is really fun when the result turns out good. But when it's bad, u just sigh cos of the waste of food and wished it was better. As dear will be having his 1st exam next wednesday, I've been cooking both lunch and dinner for the past week and most of them turned out pretty well. But today's dinner was a tad disappointing. I planned to cook sweet & sour chicken wings but somehow, i probably didn't mix the starch well enough with the tomato pury and added too much lime. It turned out too sour and too starchy, making the entire dish taste weird. Perhaps i should have tried the taste while cooking and add some sugar... But it's okay, i'll try it again another time. Thankfully, the corn rice didn't turn out too bad.

Not only did the chicken wings turned out bad, these other things happened in the process too..
- didn't hold the bag of rice properly while pouring into the cup...so a lot of rice came spilling out...wasted almost half a cup
- pulled the kitchen drawer too hard till the whole drawer came falling down, along with all the knives, forks, spoons...

i could have been hurt by the latter...imagine if the angle of the knife is wrong, i would have been injured badly. Thank God that i didn't get hurt at all. My roomie was so funny...she heard the loud crashing sound, and ran to me, and when she saw the knives lying on the floor...she got so worried that i got hurt. Thinking i was in shock and needed to cool down, she insisted on rinsing all the fallen utensils for me haha. so sweet of her.

Somehow, today wasn't a good day...considering that i didn't do much work too.
