  3. Shirley, nice to see you posting something. Guess, you've been busy! This mushroom curry sounds great. The other day, I was using bittergourd in curry cause a friend has given me quite a lot of them. Not sure what to cook! haha... Taste a little weird but still OK! haha.... Hope you're enjoying your day, dear. Take care.
    Cheers, Kristy
