Earl grey + sugar + milk = Yang&#8217;s favourite hot beverage. Of late, he started to take a liking for white coffee too. Probably becos&#8217; it keeps him perked up in the early morning at office. In any case, he started making coffee for both of us to bring to work every morning. It definitely tastes better than my usual 3-in-1. I&#8217;m the benefactor :)<\/p>\n<p>He was not a big fan of laksa but the thing grew on him. After the latest sampling of the famous 328 Katong Laksa, he is a believer :) It wasn&#8217;t easy to convince him to go to\u00a0Katong just to have that bowl of laksa. So I have to &#8216;ta bao&#8217; (take away) for him. Hee hee.<\/p>\n<p>Now this one is really a winner. Yang\u00a0has been asking for Old Chang Kee curry puffs as snacks. He found them good when they were still warm. He is not as objectionable about eating them as before although I must add that he still thinks tip top curry puff is the best!<\/p>\n<p>Well, the above leaves us with many different food preferences still. For example, Yang dislikes the aubergines and cauliflower but I simply love them, especially brinjal in green curries. He does not eat raw tomatoes of any varieties too. As for spices, ginger is not tolerated &#8211; hence, teh halia is one teh tarik he would never order. Oh ya, one other thing too, Yang doesn&#8217;t drink and his body has low tolerance for alcohol. :)<\/p>\n<p>Still, it is nice to have him on my side a bit more now. Hee hee :P<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yang has acquired some of my preferences for food after we have been married for about 22 months. *victory sign* :P That means we have more things in common and can enjoy the same things together.
