The quilt patchwork that has hedgehogs on it. I was tempted to buy it but it cost 35 pounds! If it were 10 pounds I would’ve bought it. It even has foxes and badgers around it.

So what did I have? Basa fillet cooked in vinegar and sugar garnished with spring onions. Well, I put too much spring onions as I was trying to finish them before they rot. So they actually covered the whole dish. I also boiled celery and carrot soup. Clear soup. hehe…

Ward fun

While in the ward, we approached an old lady and had the following conversation:

Us: Good afternoon. We’re from the pharmacy department and we’re here to check your medicines.

Old lady: huh? Sandwich department???

______________________________________________________

Drug chart showed that doctor has prescribed a drug for OD (meaning once a day) but he circled 4 different times.

Pharmacist: Dr. Why did you do this?

Dr: I don’t know….

Me: –_-|||

______________________________________________________

Me talking to a old patient.

Me: Hi Mr X. Good afternoon. I’m from pharmacy and wondering if I could ask you a few questions.

Pt: Sorry!! You need to speak up!! I came here in a rush last night and forgot to bring my hearing aid and my teeth! (laughs)

So, not knowing how to react I nervously laugh with him as well.

Pt: Don’t laugh!! I can’t eat without my teeth.

Me (slightly louder): I’m sorry…… (oops)

And then you get sad cases such as this:

Old lady: Do i walk this way then?

Me: No Mrs Y. You need to sit by your bed.

Old lady: It’s getting dark soon and I want to be home before it gets dark.

Me: If you wait by your bed, a nurse will come and let you know when you will go home.

Old lady: My parents must be really worried about me. They probably don’t know where I am.

Me (after a pause): I’m sure they know where you are and won’t worry too much.

And then you think back and wonder whether you should’ve said what you said. And feel sad for the little old lady with dementia.

Banana and chocolate chip muffins

Banana and Chocolate Chip muffins

See above.

That’s a banana and chocolate chip muffin.

It’s a very nice banana and chocolate chip muffin. And very easy to make as well…  I got the recipe from here. And because I do not own a weighing scale, I just roughly converted everything to cups and spoons.

I’m happy it didn’t sink this time.. :D

And it tastes so good….
