Woooo..... wanna try some of my satay pizza??? I'm not making the peanut sauce for the base because my kids are not allowed to eat any peanuts for the time being. They just recovered from chicken pox. According to the tradition, they're also not allow to take any duck meat, taro and cucumber for the next three months. The elderly said this is to prevent the virus from transforming into something else which will cause other bad infection to our skin in future. So, any comment on this? I will be happy to hear it from you too.
