I spent a whole Saturday surfing the internet in my hotel room. I was pretty much left alone. Swollen foot was giving me Hell. ouch!
I had the pleasure of having the Emperor with 48 concubines descent on my humble hotel room, accompanied by the Rainbow Queen and his Imperial Physician. My porky foot was scrutinized, criticised and pigtured. duh! It's more famous than my pretty face. *cough... cough....*
I was presented the delicious, reknowned Assam Laksa of Penang! And the Emperor's prized lormaikai (steamed glutinous rice with chicken and mushroom) that was absolutely delicious! A curry puff and some siewmais. ^-^
The Emperor made a quick call to Housekeeping and bowl, napkin, cutlery were nicely set for an Imperial meal on my bed. Special Imperial services of massage and the offer to change me into my bikini for a dip in the inviting hotel pool! tsk tsk tsk..... the porky foot evoked the Emperor's lusty imagination of a curvaceous porky body. hahaha......
We had a fantastic time suan-ing (hurling verbal abuses... hehehe.... ) one another! ahhh..... it was the time where I felt so alive after my painful accident! Thanks for these great souls, for their wonderful companionship and gifts of love.
Chris arrived after 9pm. I was famished and devoured the food he bought like a hungry wolf. Would the weak and softie doctor be makaned had I taken up his offer of dinner? mwahahaha.....
Come night, pain descended with such intensity, I had to resort to more painkillers. It was raining heavily outside, Heaven crying over my painful ordeal? :)
************************oo8oo***************************
Early Sunday morning I was awokened by gastric pain. More painkiller and back to blogging. Chris managed to recce the area round the hotel and swim in its pool.
The Terrible Trio returned with the Famous Assam Laksa by the Longkang and sweet, sweet rambutans! And the latest fashion of The Emperor's New clothes was revealed! Gasp! Sexsational. :)
On Sunday, at 10pm, borrowing the wheelchair from the hotel, Chris pushed me down for dinner with the Terrible Trio at Chilli's. Dr Bernard arrived after an Emergency surgery. I suspected he rushed through the surgery just to have dinner with us because he needed to return to check on the patient. Probably left the scalpel inside the stomach. ho ho ho.... nay, he's a responsible surgeon. :)
We had gigantic mouths matching humongous burgers! And a Molten Chocolate dessert of sinful choclate cake and vanilla ice-cream!
After dinner, back to the room for more porky leg jokes and orgy camwhoring! Woot! This is a Blogger Meet that I received the most big hearty HUGS! :)
Genie sent me a Food Directory of Penang.
So very kind of her!
Alamak... kena gastric and summore eat the Longkang Laksa?? Aiyah... why din tell me when I called u wor? Then we (ok, not we, but I) could hv smuggled the durian instead... yeah, I was the one to be blamed for refusing the durian becos sked kena tangkap by the hotel... sorries...
ReplyDeleteThank you ECL & Chris, very very much for the dinner treat! ;)
Faster get well, ok?
My Angel,
ReplyDeletehehehe.... never mind lah! I didn't die from it wor. I crave for Assam Laksa! I will go back for the durians again - when I'm better, or next year!
Don't blame yourself lah, don't eat also won't die wat. :) I'm glad that I got to eat some of the Penang delicacies despite my condition. Thanks to all of you! Yeah!!!

Do come back to Penang for more mouth watering Penang food, but remember to watch your steps ;)
Take care woh :)

ReplyDelete"Hello, Housekeeping? Could you bring up a nice pretty white dinner bowl to Rm 120x, please?"
ReplyDelete"Sure, Sir! Right away. Is that for the poor invalid soul who tripped up at Reception yesterday? We have special invalid bowls to cater for our Steps Challenged guests.."
"Hahahahaha *muffled*!! Shhhhh, please! She has already suffered enough, but yes, and make sure the bowl is trip-proof, ok? Thank you."
Wahhhhhhhhhhhh....so song wor..i mean beside the porky leg lar..hehe..The assam laksa looks so..hot...tengok oni pun dah ada gastrik...Weii...hope you are better now ler...
ReplyDeletePlease take care of yourself. Even through this setback you have a great sense of humor. Another lesson you have taught us all.
ReplyDeleteThank You

Hello nyonyapenang,
ReplyDeleteThanks. :)
lb,
ReplyDeletehehehe.... you still haven't got enough of the suan-ing! I'm turning bitter already lah!

ReplyDeletehow is the swelling today?
Poor lady! But then.. such a royal treatment.. The emperor himself served you!! Wooo! Wooo!

aiyahhh... we should plan to have a holiday together. It would be fun!
Teacher Dave,
ReplyDeleteawww.... you always have a kind word for me. :) Thanks.
I have to remain cheerful
despite my temporary setback. I have to set a good eaxample for my son and wards.
misti,
ReplyDeletehehehe... my gastric is under control. The swelling and bruises are still there. Porky foot cannot touch the ground. ^-^
zara's mom,
ReplyDeleteYes, the Emperor himself rolled up his sleeves (and almost his clothes... hahaha....)to serve me.
Woot!
Ayer Itam Longkang Laksa! I want to go home!!!
ReplyDeleteMiss Loi, gasp!
ReplyDeleteYou from Penang!? Yahoooo.....
Next time you go home, I follow. Can? Can?
*puppy eyes and sweet sweet smile*
Sounds like a sinful gathering. *winks*
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the most delicious-looking posts I've seen for a long time!
ReplyDeleteHey listen:
I've tagged you as a "friend" from MyBlogLog. It's one of those "things about myself" things.
But I've added a bit of a twist to it; you've gotta find other bloggers you're "friends" with, but haven't really had much contact with.
Here's the link:
http://mdabase.blogspot.com/2007/07/tuesday-july-24th-2007-helsingborg-to.html
Good luck.
Lucky the pictures here not as torturing as L B's. Hahahaha!!
ReplyDeleteAh ... good to read that your friends treat you so well :)
ReplyDeleteAssam Laksa of Penang eh? I love Laksa. I drive all the way up to Penang from Singapore just to taste their Laksa. Oh ... they have 2 other types too. The curry creamy type (that Singaporeans should be very familiar with) and the Thai style Laksa. You should try them all. The Thai one can be found near that very famous Chinese Goddess temple.
Ahhhh ... I miss Penang! Anyway. Happy to read that you are in high spirit :)
ECL, the last time I was there was when the tsunami happened - and it was a very significant day for me as well! Nowadays I mostly stay in KL.
ReplyDeleteThink you're more familiar with Penang than me now!
If your foot looked like that...aggghhh!
ReplyDeleteYou deserve all of those hugs too. Poor girl.
ReplyDeleteAny laksa left for me? 0_o
Still can try their local food, not bad oredi lah! I like lor mai kai - this one looks like a brain -luckily not porky brain. ;p

Wilfrid,
ReplyDeleteYou drove up to Penang!? That's far! and tiring. Gosh. But it's worth it for the yummy food! ^-^
I ate the Thai style Laksa not the creamy one. *slurp*
My Malaysian blogger friends are awesome, huh.
Miss Loi,
ReplyDeleteOh, you went to help during the tsunami disaster? It must be quite an experience.
I didn't get to go round Penang due to my injury, so how to know it well? ^-^
Captain Picard,

ReplyDeletehehehe... Yes, you should be jealous! I'm just too adorable, well-loved by many people. kekeke.....
If you come back to Singapore, you know I'll take care of you. We will have our own food orgy! hahaha....
Ed,
ReplyDeleteNobody can say life is fair! kekeke....
People tend to pity a lonely, lovely, hot invalid! hahaha....
Oh poor you! Instant cup noodle!? You should run over and have some bird's nest soup. ^-^
yenjai,
ReplyDeletekakaka.... that's how attractive I am! The Power of ECL! Yeah!

Wah! Not bad ah! Treated better than the Queen, leh! I dont mind breaking a leg if i get that kind of food and attention! Haha!
ReplyDeletestay-at-home Mom,
ReplyDeleteI dont mind breaking a leg if i get that kind of food and attention! Haha!
You don't mean that, do you? ^-^
Oooo, I was given royal treatment by my friends.
Hi there, I hope your pain has subsided. Are you using anything to immobilize the ankle?
ReplyDeleteThanks to you and Chris for dinner. The meeting-up was really good la..
In high spirits (not literally, haha).
The food looks really heavenly.... so shiok lah woman....;) ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Bernard!
ReplyDeleteNope, the pain is still there. Yes, my ankle has a fibreglass half-cast to immobilize it.
aiyahhhh.... I can't thank all of you enough for the assistance you all have given. I'm very grateful.
Thanks for everything. ^-^
J@n!ce

ReplyDeleteGet well soon, ECL! :)
Get well soon, hot mama!
ReplyDeleteWhat's this crap and slander from Ping.sg Uzyn and his rats? You should sue them.
For someone who have foreign students and foreign friends who stayed with you; tuition teachers, classmates and friends of your students; staff and your friends who dropped in frequently, it is not unusual for them to use your wifi to surf or comment on your blog. And because it is public and shared in the house, it is subjected to abuses too.
This foreign trash is so mean to ban you and even spam you from a wifi spot. And you were right he took away your awards! Has he returned them? You should teach these so-called university graduates a lesson!
He's entrepreneur? Pui! Take sponsor's money and no receipt? He thinks he taking money from his father? Your hubby runs a legal business and needs to pay taxes! Report him!
For someone who loves to judge others, he should look at himself. And what logic is there you have to apologise to his co-habiting girlfriend because she was upset over your remarks? Your legal husband should be even more upset with the bloody way they treat you. Shameless trash!
Although you have banned us from commenting on your blog, we feel it is right to come to your defend. Please publish this.
I'm sure your rich students would chip in with the legal fees unlike those empty vessels who can't even cough up S$200 to return. Talk about pride. They don't have! hahahaha......
Alamak! U so teruk! Always getting into trouble! Be a good girl can???
ReplyDeleteGet well soon! We go Johor eat durians!!!
Wow!!! Those food are really good.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are so fortunate that people bring the whole Penang to you. Well, almost the whole Penang I think. Hahahahaa ..
Hope you are feeling much better!!!
Looks like you still having a good time despite your twisted foot. Hehehehe. And that laksa, so yummy can die. yum yum!
ReplyDelete*Doreen gives eastcoastlife a big big hug*
Wah! narrowband,
ReplyDeleteNo amount of luxurious treatment is worth an arm or leg! I get luxurious treatments when I was up and running about. ^-^
oi... justicebao,
ReplyDeleteYou also a member, later kena ban too. Next time use your own blog nick and computer.
Not everybody in there is blind and balls-polisher.
See, without it, I'm also having traffic. And better quality readers. Unlike some wannabes and copycats who rode on my fame to get traffic. hahaha....
henry,
ReplyDeleteYou go Johor this weekend, bring durians back for me huh!
Be good girl? Hard lah! I will live longer being evil! hahaha....
lilMrsT,
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Yes, I almost had the whole Penang brought to me. Penang food is really yummy! haha....
