Save the best for last



No, this is not a title of a song. It is the ritual of how I eat char koay teow. Always keep one prawn standing there, waiting pensively, knowing its' fate.....

while I wallop the whole plate. Munching on the beansprout, koay teow, cockcles, brothers and sisters prawns... kuchai....

and poor biggest prawn with the most muscle waits....

and waits........

when I am done with all the things on the plate....

NGAM, there goes the biggest, best prawn.

That's the meaning of 'Save the best for last'.

Remember to apply this for life as well...But of course, only for those things that you know will eventually come soon. Don't keep the best perfume till you are 97 and the old man couldn't smell it anymore. Or the silk lingerie...when the old man's pecker had fizzled into a fossil...Or keep the prettiest girl waiting until she turned into a fat broad.
