Pandabonium said...

Nuts are a weakness of mine. Healthy in moderation, but Once I start eating them, they are soon gone.

If forced to pick just one, I'd say cashews. But I want them all.

Chen said...

yvy,
another garam lover :P

alicia,
most people will have groundnuts and kuaci for CNY :)

pandabonium,
just like eating pringles ?
once u start, u cannot stop ;)

Sigh, how dare you put pics of my favourite nuts (pistachios and cashews)up to tease me, especially when we've got none at home. :(

Must run now downstairs to get some.

Later!

Cynthia said...

yeah.. i like walnut carrot cake.. yum yum~! love eating the brains! LOL

Chen said...

Furkids in HK,
oops... So I presume u bought some already by now? :P

Cynthia,
like the old Chinese sayings; drinking "pig brain soup" will make us more brainy..
so I presume eating walnut will make us brainy as well, since walnut has the shape of the brain hemisphere, hahah...

Chen said...

tom,
the wasabi green peas is very 'hot' :)
those who loves hot & spicy food will love the wasabi green peas :)

Chen said...

tom,
yeah, it is worth trying :)
hot stuffs are nice.
