‘Twas the eve of Christmas…it still is for another couple of hours to go.
Just had some Voodoo Magic to compliment our dinner. The Batik Influencer, Jeannie, who is also my wife; and I, decided to eat at home (for a change). Jeannie went for Maggi’s noodles. I had a burger.
Jeannie rustled up her Maggi noodles into a soupy meal. Looked good though I am not one for instant noodles. Jeannie also threw in some cut cherry toma“y”toes (American pronunciation, I think; not the British way of pronouncing it toma“h”toes), Japanese cucumbers and other “vege” (very Malaysian way of saying vegetables. I would prefer saying vegetables). That’s what made her meal look awesome. Bet tasted as good as it looked, or even more.
I had a premium burger, well done, that had baked beans and kernel corn to accompany it. A very” Mat Salleh” meal. That’s when I decided to liven the meal up. The answer “Voodoo Magic” – an extremely potent and rare commodity. “Smokin’ hot”, able to blow the roof off the top of your head, heart pumpin’, perspiration falling like Niagara Falls; this is one of the hottest chili sauce in town. Very, very, very limited stock available.
Voodoo Magic is a homemade chili sauce by Alan Martin. He says he uses only fresh ingredients, no preservatives, artificial colouring and other stuff like that. This is something like the chili sauce that is served with Chinese chicken rice; only a whole new level of niceness. The distinct tangerine in the sauce is superb.
Voodoo Magic takes hotness or spiciness to a whole new level. According to Alan Martin, stock is extremely limited. So, for now; it’s just his close circle of friends that can ger their hands on a bottle or two.
‘Twas / is the eve of Christmas (fast drawing to an end), I am at my workstation putting an essay together.
Yes, Christmas eve. The day threw quite a few curve balls. One of them was that my book has hit a slight delay in being published.
I am trying to have it out by early January, if possible. Keep a lookout for it. Do let me know if you want to be amongst the first to acquire this book. It should start your 2025 on a positive note with happy vibes.
With Christmas decorations all around us, and beautiful Christmas carols and songs coming in throughout the day, the will be by far, the best Christmas. Looking forward to church atmosphere all around, too.
For now, Jeannie has bought me 5 full bars of Cadbury chocolate with hazelnuts, and 2 packets of M&M’s – you know, the ones in the yellow packs, the colour ball-shaped chocolates with peanuts in them (one of my favourites, too). I have to ensure I finish them. Then, walk 15,000 steps or nearly 11km at an even more vigorous pace, to burn off the excess sugar, For chocolates, I think it’s worth the extra exercise.
Will see you in my next article real soon. Til then…peace.✌🏻
