A birthday, and snails

Had dinner at The Ship (shaw centre branch) yesterday to celebrate mum's birthday (in advance), and I had escargots for the first time!

It just tasted garlicky, cause it was cooked in a garlic sauce.

Can't taste any natural snail flavour at all.

HAHA

But it was black, and silky.

Doesn't look very appetising, but the texture was quite good.

I felt bad when I had to stab the poor snail inside the shell repeatedly (it was slippery and I had no skill) with a small but scary 2 prong fork to dig it out.

And eat it.

This is The Fork.

Now imagine this digging your eyes out!!!!!!

I always have weird thoughts like this, until I scare myself

:S

But yesterday was an enjoyable day anyway, cause I had a lot of good food :D

And I had one and a half pieces of garlic toast yesterday, with 2 chunks of butter!

Mmm.

I love bread and I love butter, and I really love them together :3

HEH HEH I think I can eat bread and butter for the rest of my life.

Low maintenance.

The reason I has one and a half pieces is because I was a dustbin and helped someone to finish hers cause she can't finish it.

And I ate a huge chunk of my mum's steak too.

But that's because she also can't finish it, not because I wanted it, really!

HAHA

By the way, I got the biggest shock of my life yesterday when Jacq told me that ITB (IT in biz) common test is this monday.

Turns out it isn't, but I spent about 20 minutes wondering how I am going to take the test with only one day of preparation when I didn't listen to lectures and still can't figure out the difference between WAN and LAN or something.

But there was also a 10 minutes where I had a sudden resolve to rush home, sit down, and study ITB till my ass goes numb.

I guess sometimes a bit of shock is important too. LOL

So I shall forgive Jacq, who also got the biggest shock of her life on friday.

@jacquelyntsh, take care of yourself!
