Random things of awesomeness!

If you want a clean place, invite someone over for a dinner or lunch. I find myself so motivated (cos I don't have a choice) to clean up! hahahaha



If you want thick awesome hair... Wait until 60% of your hair is dry after washing, then blowdry your hair upside down. Just use your hands to untangle the knots. Fix up the front part however you like it. If you have medium-length or long hair, then back comb the top of your hair and set it with semi-strong hold hair spray. This will only take 5-7 minutes of your time. :-)

I believe the thicker your hair looks, the more feminine and younger you look. 
My only problem is finding that 5-7 minutes!

If you can't sleep, focus on your breathing... breathe in and count 1, breathe out and count 2... then repeat... you will find yourself sleeping in no time. And if that doesn't work, imagine how heaven would look like in your mind, with you and your loved ones in it... I drift off before you can even say 'oh for heaven's sake!'. And well, if that doesn't work either, then try reading a work or school-related book. Don't you suddenly feel VERY sleepy? LOL

feeling blue..

El toniosky personally tested some food colouring for my cupcakes. Of all three colours: red, yellow and blue, umm of course he had to pick the blue! LOL

What's the best thing to put into a pie..? Your teeth!


Thanks min for the idea! the australian meat pie was cool :-)


In other news, my attempt to make peach-flavoured cupcakes FAILED. So instead of wasting the (luckily) highly-successful peach frosting (LOL), I decided to make some basic vanilla cupcakes instead. I added some chocky bits and they're done! Wuh, save!

my steamed fish!

I kind of got carried away with the onions, ginger and all, but it tasted good.. almost as good as my mum's cooking... almost, as in, I need more practice :-)

I think I can safely say I can cook now :-) Thanks mama for the recipe!

Oh how cute!

We found this little café in servette, looks like a room out of a 
vintage-furniture magazine. What a gem!

from russia with love..



This was the first russian dish I made: beef stroganoff! well, it was a slightly modified recipe. I substituted cognac with lemon juice. I didn't have flat egg noodles, so I used pasta instead. I hope I didn't offend any russians for this, but it tasted good to me!

my baking adventures continue..!


Soft, moist earl-grey tea mini cakes.. good with coffee or tea
