A blog about me, home, health, food and anything under the sun
Life has kept me busy. Busy in a good way. We had family dinner at my place on Saturday and yesterday we attended a baby shower. I’m feeling a little unwell at the moment — itchy throat and coughing a little. I haven’t seen the doctor yet. My parents stayed with me last week. I’ve [...]
Good morning folks! It’s already Friday? So fast! I still have a couple of things pending at the moment! We started off the day with a bowl of cereal mixed with milk, blackberries and raisins. Before that, I went for a short run. I’m feeling a little PMS-sy and working out helps. Imbalanced hormones sucks [...]
I made a GREEN MONSTER for the first time today! English baby spinach gave it that green colour :) My green monster consisted of: A handful of english spinach Frozen rasberries Vanilla milk (milk + vanilla essence) Sugar I made it after my morning work out. It actually taste pretty good :) You can’t taste [...]
I am so into homemade oat crackers lately. It’s crispy, healthy, tasty! Spread some cream cheese onto it and it’s good to go! This cracker only needs oat, salt and water. Of course you can experiment and add some herbs to the mixture. I’m thinking of black pepper, cheese, garlic powder, dried rosemary .. what [...]
Guess what time I decided to bake some cookies yesterday!!?? 9 pm at night! I would normally relax on my bed at this time but I had an urge to bake something. I ended sleeping at nearly 11 pm (unlike my usual 10 pm). This morning however, I awoke at 6 am without any problem [...]
Hope you are having a great week so far. Well mine has been okay but for some reasons, this week I am not in the mood to take any food photos after I cook. I am feeling more lethargic than I normally do (despite getting my 8-9 hours sleep every night), I’m also a little [...]
I’ve been contemplating baking a flourless cake since a while ago and I finally baked one! I made a very moist orange & almond cake. The recipe was adapted from both FoodSafari cooking show and from my Baking book. I had all the ingredients at home — 3 cups of ground almond (purchased from PhoonHuat [...]
I’ve made muffins a couple of times (using the mix dry and wet ingredients together) but I’ve never made cupcakes (using the creaming method) before! So I decided to make some buttermilk cupcakes. I used one recipe from my baking book but twisted it a little – I reduced the butter by almost half, added [...]
Ravioli Chinois = Wonton :) So tonight dinner was a homemade Pumpkin-filled ravioli chinois with homemade pesto sauce. I’ve never made these before and it turned out pretty good :) The only big mistake was not to drizzle some olive oil over them after they were boiled. They were all stuck together by the time [...]
