Desktop Wallpaper Calendar – Feb 2015

February 2, 2015 | San

February’s wallpaper design deserves to be a bit more chirpy with Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day.
I got the Valentine vector card free from here (Pepsized.com) created by Ewa Sajdak, and modify it to a desktop wallpaper.

Mine measures 1920×1080.

hello … and a note

Hi, glad you found my site where I write mostly about my bread recipes + other things I do daily to slow down a little and pare down a lot, especially on food waste and single-use plastics. After all, we only have one earth, let’s be nice to it.

I post a mixture of my own photos and sometimes images that I really like by others, giving proper credits. Email me at {monoandco} at gmail dot com if you like me to remove the post with your image.

Thanks for stopping by.
Sandra

Feel heaty and under the weather? I'll pick up a bottle of 24 flavours herbal tea 二十四味 if I pass by a Chinese medicinal hall. Otherwise, I'll rely on my homebrewed monk fruit tea 罗汉果。 The 24 flavours tea at this hawker stall located in Old Airport Road Food Centre is super bitter, which means it's super cooling and effective to combat heatiness!☀️☀️☀️

The market stallholders are always very impressed by the seemingly endless number of reusables I bring along for grocery shopping. What they don't know is that I have already roughly planned a shopping list in my head before heading out, so I will bring the right type and quantity of containers. Sticking to a short grocery list helps to ease the reusable container load too. Otherwise, I'll look like Santa Claus carrying a big sack of presents, even before stepping inside the market. 😅

People often ask me if it's difficult to bring along my own shopping bags and food containers, just to avoid a few plastic disposables. My reply? I find recycling and throwing out rubbish more troublesome! ♻️

To be ready for homemade frozen yogurt all the time, I have been storing my ice cream maker's bowl in my freezer. This means that I can't stock too much frozen food at home; just enough to fill up the freezer without jam-packing it. Did you know that a full (note: not overflowing!) freezer retains cold better and thus will work more efficiently than an empty one? Another mistake is keeping food in freezer for too long, thinking that frozen food will last forever. So it is always a good idea to organise and rotate frozen food to use up the oldest ones first.

Finally used up the last of my chia seeds, stored in the coldest part of the fridge. Bought 1kg of chia seeds as a bigger pack is cheaper. I ended up eating expired chia seeds for one year 😂 Lesson? Buy only what I can finish, ie the smallest pack next time. Or share with friends when bulk purchasing!

Recently discovered naturally fermented mantou from @dough_magic_official The stallholders are very BYO-friendly and accept all containers I bring for takeaways.

Bread baked this month: Dragon Fruit Buns, Brown Sugar Boule and Taro Walnut Loaf. The last loaf has a small bump as I made a mini loaf without walnuts, customising for someone who doesn't like nuts in bread. 🍞

Shopping at the wet markets means I get to choose more produce from local farms, in quantity I can use up, without generating large amount plastic waste from packaging.

What happens when my oatflour-only pancake recipe fails to hold properly, producing pancake crumbs instead? Serve them as they are! The crumbs are edible, just not in their pretty form. To make it prettier AND delicious, I added fresh raspberries and drizzled coconut milk, so no one can tell it's a failed attempt. No food wasted!
