I am very proud of what Rose is doing. Sharing her passion for cooking and her recipes with everyone. I was just in Penang over the weekend and my friend mentioned that the teacher for Penang kuehs is Lim Bian Yam and whilst searching the net I chance upon Rose’s website. Rose and I also share the same passion and I always believe that good recipes must be shared with all so that the generation can pass on the traditional recipes. I have no website n don’t know how to go about it but I am very active at the YWCA Spore and we share recipes through cookbooks,diaries and calendars published by YWCA. If you will give me your mailing address I will send Rose a copy of our 2011 diary with recipes. You can email me at the email address indicated. Perhaps we can share and exchange recipes too. God Bless Rose and keeps her in good health.
