Food Friday #1

So this is my first time joining Food Friday that my online bestie, Debbs has been doing for quite a while. I hope to make this a regular feature here on My Sweet Escape.

However, since I rarely take pics of my food, you might see some that I've already posted previously. But it's my blog and I'll blog whatever I want to, so just deal with it.

Anyways, for my first Food Friday ever, I decided to feature, "Syura's Ikan Bakar"!

I am in the mood for some "ikan bakar" (grilled fish) and my sister makes one of the AWESOMESTEST ever!

She usually makes this when she's in KK because we get really fresh fish over there and she usually grills it using banana leaves (which grows in abundance back home). Besides, the "sambal" or "chilli dressing" she lathers on top is sooo awesome 'coz the chillies back home aren't like anything you can get over here.

And since our family are hardcore chilli eaters, she normally lathers the fish with "sambal" and serves it seperate as well. Did you know that chillies are natural fat burners??

Anyways, I've been craving for fish for a long time now.. it's really so hard to find fresh fish here? Anyone knows where I can get fresh fish???

Free SEO Software

I was just bloghopping last night when I came across this article about keyword optimization. Seems that for those who want to earn loads of money through Google AdSense or want more traffic for their blogs, keyword optimization is key.

Yeah, that's old news, right? But this article led me to an seo software site that lists the top 10 best directories for your submission. SEO (Search Engine Optimization) top secrets are also shared via this free SEO software.

I haven't given it a try yet, after all, I don't even have google adsense here on my blog. But for those of you who do, you might want to check it out!

Lose Weight Naturally

As far as my struggles with weight go, I have not ever tried all these slimming pills or what nots to aid in my weight loss regime. Yeah, sometimes when desperation sets in, you do feel tempted.

However, I always remind myself that the reason I want to lose weight is to be healthier, stronger and fitter.. and while diet pills and all sounds great, but we don't know the potential danger it has with its side effect.

Take human growth hormones for example. Apparently, reported effects include decreased body fat, increased muscle mass, increased bone density, increased energy levels, improved skin tone and texture, increased sexual function and improved immune system function. At this time HGH is still considered a very complex hormone and many of its functions are still unknown.

So before any of you take any substances, artificial or natural, make sure you research it thoroughly before you consume it. Nothing is better than losing weight naturally - through exercise and eating right!

Full To The Brim

I am running out of space on my laptop. Like seriously running out of space. I have yet to get myself an external hard drive because I was hoping that my bro would get one for me!

But while I am not back in my hometown yet to harass my brother into getting me one, I am getting pretty antsy here. I'm even thinking of just storing some of my files via online backup so I can have space for new stuff.

I mean it's high time I got one already. Ever since I got my lappy in 2007, I have finally almost maxed out on its 250GB space. Actually it's a wonder how I've managed it this long without running out of space SOONER.

Thankfully, GG here is behaving well.. I haven't had any problems with her, but I don't wanna speak too soon.
