We made cottage cheese pancakes after church last Sunday!!!!
With the cottage cheese I desperately packed out of Runk cuz I had leftover swipes for the week...
 |
I just clapped and cheered as my sister fried/burned them up in butter. |
 |
:D |
 |
Most unattractive pile of the most glorious and moist pancakes ever. |
Yeah, even Plus 13 is too much for me. I guess I'll explain to those who don't know... first-years in UVa are
(completely forced) to adopt a mandatory meal plan and the usual/default one is Plus 15, where you get 15 swipes into any dining hall a week (which starts every Wednesday), and a set number of Plus Dollars, which you can use to buy food from any of the campus restaurants in UVa.
Which basically entitles you to 15 huge buffets/binges. I downgraded mine to the minimum for a first-year (Plus 13 - thirteen swipes per week with more Plus Dollars, you guessed it) and I still find myself left with about 5 swipes every Tuesday.
What to do? I started packing my sister and Albert some weird supplies. Been stuffing to-go boxes with produce from the salad bar. They have tons of broccoli in their fridge now, haha.

All taken while still maintaining the honor code! :P |
And made apple (crumble) pie. :D
 |
Crumble armor. |
 |
Once again, aesthetically unfit for a restaurant... |
Why am I left with so many swipes at the end of each week?
Well sometimes it's because I use Plus Dollars:
 |
Extremely disgusting sushi from the Pav in Newcomb that's horribly overpriced - about 11 USD |
 |
You saw this before: Blueberry parfait from Wilsdorf |
 |
From the Carpe Donut truck outside the amphitheater! Apple donuts!!!! SOOO delish! |
 |
Overpriced dumplings from the dumpling truck at the amphitheater. |
 |
Skinny cow ice-cream sandwich from the convenience store |
But mostly it's because I've been terribly spoiled by stuff like these:
 |
ULTIMATE COMFORT FOOD: leftover zheng zhu yuk with hot fluffy rice... |
 |
Cubed pork from Nihao. :) |
 |
Nihao steamed pork dumplings. |
 |
The famous pandan chiffon cake I've been going a bit mad over. |
 |
Yah, the happiness.... |
 |
Cutting a cloud... |
 |
A lovely eggy cloud... |
I'm making a list of Malaysian foods to reproduce!
So far, I've got:
- Pan Mee
- Hainanese Chicken Rice
- Pau
- Rotiboy
- Claypot rice
Any more suggestions? :)
