Life In Edinburgh - Beberes Rumah, Masak Masak, Belanja Furniture

Hello, good morning and happy weekend. I'm so happy because this weekend I don't have any plans. Although there are a lot of things that I have to do. This will be kind of like a weekend resetting. The house is also in a mess, so that's one of the main things. Today I will clean the house. Yesterday I went on a vacation to Europe for two weeks. It was a really good trip, but it felt very long. After the vacation, a week later we went to Lake District for our climbing trip. So the house is a bit neglected. So it's a mess right now. Everything is still messy everywhere. So the goal today is to clean the house. Hopefully I can finish it before Cunyang comes home. Cunyang is leaving now because she has a conference. It's a full day conference. So hopefully the house can be cleaned before she comes back. Anyway, before I clean up, I want to cook first. Because it's almost 12 o'clock and I'm really hungry. So I will need some food to cook. But because I'm a bit lazy to cook, I'm going to make our signature noodle dish. This recipe is really easy. I'll show you how later. Now I'm going to boil the noodles first. I bought this noodle from an Asian store. It's like a shrimp egg noodle. I don't know what brand this is. But it's really nice. Sometimes there are thicker noodles. But I'm trying the thin one and it turns out both are delicious. For the topping, we usually have seafood tofu. But yesterday I ran out of it. So now I'm just going to use some of these frozen fish balls. I'm going to boil them together. I've boiled some water to make it faster. I always boil water in the kettle instead of the stove. Now we just have to wait. Usually it takes about 4-5 minutes. Look at my hair. It's really long. Before I came here, I cut my hair. It was like this long. Then in 7 months, it grew really long. I was actually going to cut it. I was planning to go back to Indonesia in August. Because my friend is also getting married. But my vacation was cancelled. Which is so sad. Because my vacation period is still enough. But my boss said it was during a busy period. So I can't take the vacation. So most likely I can't go home. Which is tough. Because it's going to be almost a year since I have been back home. And yeah, work also has been tough. It's not the easiest. But I'm still grateful that I have a job. So there's that. Oh, another big update. We're going to move house at the end of July or the beginning of August. Which I'm very excited. Because when we move to this house, we already know that it's going to be temporary. Because at that time we were quite desperate to move. To get an apartment. But the building is very old. So there's a lot of mold problems. Especially in the bathroom. And the ventilation is also not good. Now it's better because it's summer. But during winter, the house is very cold. Because we can't set the temperature of the heater. So even if we turn on the heater, it's still very cold. There was also a rat in this house. Because again, this is an old house. Some of the buildings already have holes for rats to enter. So yeah, I can't wait to move. But that's going to be another story. Maybe later, closer to the date, I will tell you more about my move. And yeah, that's it so far. My life update. Not much. But it's finally spring slash summer. Yesterday we got good weather for a month. But now it's been raining a lot lately. Which I think is good. Because usually if the weather is good, I want to go out all the time. But now the weather is not that good. Maybe I have to stay indoors. And rest from everything that's going on. So yeah. Okay, I think it's been quite a while. After boiling, we just need to strain the water. And next, what makes it delicious is the seasonings. So usually I use soy sauce. And again, I only use a little bit of everything. I don't even need to use a tupperware. I use light soy sauce and a little bit of dark soy sauce. Then I use sesame oil. So that the noodles won't be too dry. And the most important thing is white pepper. That's it. Sometimes I also use oyster sauce. But sometimes I don't use it. Then just mix it up. So that's my lazy meal. Again, don't mind the mess. This is just one side that's messy. Itadakimasu. This is my and my husband's lazy meal. When we go back to the office and we don't have energy to cook. Or when we're tired and we don't know where to go. We always make this. And usually we also make it with bok choy for the vegetables. But because we don't have any vegetables this time. Guys. After eating, I watch Youtube for a while. But then I go to bed. I'm so tired. I slept for like an hour. But I'm trying to force myself to wake up now. And let's go clean. Okay, I'm almost done. I vacuumed, washed, and packed everything. Now I just have to fold the laundry and a few clothes from the suitcase. But it's crazy. My vacuum is so dirty. It's a bit disgusting. But there's so much dust. There's still some left in the vacuum. I'm just glad I can clean today. It felt so good. I'm pretty tired. But it was very satisfying. Because it's long overdue to clean the apartment. Hello. Good morning and happy Sunday. Today we're going to do a lot of adult activities. Like shopping for the sofa. Grocery shopping. Milk prep. What else? It's a secret. I don't know where we're going. So, I'm excited. The weather is not so great. We wanted to go camping this week. But it turned out to be super windy. And today it's very cloudy. And maybe it's going to rain. So, we decided not to camp. But we're going to do a lot of house chores. Because we're moving soon. And we're so excited. So, there's a lot to do. And follow us along today. Okay, we're at the first stop. We're looking at mattresses. And it's expensive. The one in Ikea is around 200-400 pounds. So, it's around 4-8 million. But here... We tried it and it's good. The one we like is around 900 pounds. But there's a very expensive one. It can be up to 3,000 pounds. 3,000 pounds is 60 million. Both mattresses. But I think now it's just finding a balance. Because mattress is also a long-term investment. So that you can sleep well. So, we want to make sure we get the right one. It's not too expensive. But it's not cheap either. So, we'll probably come back to there. Because we're moving in a month. So, we still have time. Next, we're going to look at sofas. Right? Surprise. We'll see. The fourth place. Hello, hello, hello. We've been to several places to look at sofas. I think we went to four different places. And we talked to the salesperson. At a place that's quite old. But the sofas there are okay. But we bought the more expensive one. And I think there's another one that is actually way cheaper. And we think it's still comfortable. And we like the design more. So, I think we're quite set on getting the cheaper one. But we haven't bought it yet. Because we're just waiting. The house is all sorted. Before we confirm the purchase. We're quite tired now. It's 5.30 PM. We'll leave around 11-12 PM. So, we've been looking for furniture for 5 hours. Now, we'll just go back. Maybe we'll just do a quick groceries. Then, we'll go back to the house. Hello, I'm back at the house. I just came back from groceries. I took a short nap. Because I'm so sleepy. After a day of looking for furniture. So, I just took a quick nap. Then, I took a shower too. And now, I want to get ready to make dinner and meal prep. I'm going to make fried sea bass. Using ginger and scallion oil. Even though there's no scallion earlier. It ran out at Lidl. So, I think we'll just use ginger and soy sauce. And a few other sauces. Then, for meal prep. I'm going to make the same. But using chicken. This recipe is called Marry Me Chicken. My husband made it for the first time. And it turned out to be delicious. He used to make it often. But now, it's rare. So, I'm just going to try to remake Marry Me Chicken. For the vegetables, we'll make Chinese leaves. Chinese leaves are very easy. Because I usually just boil it. Then, add a little salt to the water. That's it. So, it's delicious, easy, and... That's it, delicious and easy. Guys, by the way. Yesterday, my friend gave me mangoes from Pakistan. And it turned out to be very sweet. Very delicious. Very different from the mangoes here. And because it's so delicious. We decided to make mango sticky rice yesterday. Even though we don't want to buy new glutinous rice for the sticky rice. So, because we still have black glutinous rice at home. We make it with that. And it's delicious. And for the sauce. Just use coconut milk. And sugar. And a little salt. Then mix it. And it's done. It's small. Yesterday, we got four of these. The price is... 7.5 pounds. Which is about... 160 thousand. One is 40 thousand. It's expensive. But it's okay. How is it, Boss? Wow. It's 10 o'clock. Okay, it's done. I watched the Squid Game episode. Season 3 just came out. And it was quite fun. But it's already 11 o'clock. So, it's time to sleep. Because tomorrow is Monday. And I have to go back to work. So, thank you so much for watching the video. And I'll see you guys in the next one. Bye.
