Getting to know May Gin is definitely one of the best things that ever happened throughout my three years blogging career life.

I got to know her very briefly during my second delivery of Mille Crepe. Perhaps we share the same passion for food, we just clicked. Our subsequent meet ups were at SS2 Secret Recipe, SS2 Wong Kok Char Chan Teng, a brief one at Sushi Groove and recently, a half day outing to Pavilion (J.Co Donuts & Coffee) and 1U (Sushi Groove) together.

By our third meet up, she has already baked chocolate chip cookies for me to bring back home!

For our forth meet up, she prepared more food for me to bring back home!

The night before that, I was reading her blog and she was blogging about pineapple fried rice. Hence, being the greedy one, I gave her a call to tease her.

J : “I want to eat pineapple fried rice also.”
MG : “What?! Cannot. I have baked muffins for you.”
J : “But I want to eat pineapple fried rice.”
MG : “Cannot.”
J : “Sulk.”

Yet, to my surprise, I saw a tupperware with pineapple fried rice in it when I collected the food from her on Sunday. There was a big grin on my face at that moment.

I reheated the fried rice when I reached my Tampin house. There were a lot of ingredients in it, lots of chicken chunks, mushrooms, chili flakes, cashew nuts, onions, spring onions, carrots and of course, pineapples. Taste? Absolutely delicious although I would prefer it to be freshly out from the wok.

Apart from the pineapple fried rice, she baked me more chocolate chips cookies. It wasn’t as sweet as the first batch , which I told her about it that time. Crunchy as ever still.

Apart from that, she also specially baked muffins for me. Yes, those soft, fluffy and delicious muffins that come in assorted flavours like banana, chocolate, vanilla, orange and pandan.

I told her I love pandan more than vanilla and chocolate. However, she said she never bake pandan flavoured before and it would be her first time baking so, hence, she wasn’t very confident with the taste.

After sinking my teeth into the pandan flavoured muffin, it tasted heavenly. It wasn’t steaming hot or right from the oven, but definitely, I could taste the pandan flavour in it. I hope that would definitely give her the boost of confidence in baking more pandan flavoured pastries.

Do you want to have a bite? Heh!

After reading this post, I think I have sort of explained why I put the status message of “I love you, May Gin!” on my MSN. Really, never feel so being loved before, from a friend, that is. As for the title, “May Gin’s Love”, well, it wasn’t the food that really melted my heart (It did, actually.) but rather the heart, effort, time and love put in to cook and bake something for a guy who she only met less than five times.

Thanks, May Gin. Really, it’s more than just a mere “Thank You”. Love you, a lot!

So, what are you going to surprise me with the next time I come KL? Ha!
