i COOK (=

hehe... i cooked my first meal at home today!!!
i feel so pro today...
although a series of unfortunate events led to this weird occurence, it happened none the less...
i went to jiajia (local supermarket) and bought
1 packet of maggi mee containing 5 servings - RM 2.50
1 packet of Japanese Sawi (or sth like that, can't remember wat its called exactly)- RM 1.41
1 packet of Chicken Sausage- RM 1.99
Grand Total - RM 6.00

ooooo.... that's 6 bucks for about 3 meals or more...(can't expect to make 5 cos' the Maggi mee is really really small, so i put 2 into the pot...

sooo... the basic recipe was reli simple, dump everything into the pot in this order- boil water, maggi mee, soup powder, sausage, sawi.... stir and act as if you're really cooking something... and jeng jeng... you have... FOOD!!!
if you'd like to know... the japanese sawi, i bought 3 stalks... in today's meal i used 3 leafs from 1 stalk which has about 6-7 leaves...
the chicken sausage i used 2 out of about 10 sausages i think...
wahaha... so total cost of entire meal... INCLUDING water (couple of cents considering my water bill for a MONTH is 5 bucks), driving (one week 30 bucks, but this is only to jiajia, so at the most 50 cents? or a buck?), electricity? (i no gas, so can only use electric steamboat machine, one month about 60 odd bucks, but use for such a short while only... probably about 20 cents at the most) errr... labor costs? (i do myself :)
making this meal a grand total of less than 3 bucks...

i'm still full :)... if not i still got apple... and various junk foods....
i'm thinking of doing this 3 times a week... just enough to not be anti social yet save money :)
woohoo... talk about cheap...
