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 cafĂ© 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

Our japanese friend Nao invited us to her lovely home and she thought us how to make some sushi rolls.. They were not only fun to make, but they also tasted GOOD..! Arigato gozaimasu!












Itadakimasu!
This one is called 'Tulip Maki'

Hrmm I kind of destroyed some of the egg rolls, as you can see LOL
