I’m currently in China so I won’t be able to write all that much in the next few weeks, especially when I have no internet, however I will endeavour to write as much as I can. I seem to always be in China though, and always miss out on the best time of the year […]…
Apologies for the periods of silence lately, there’s just been so much on my mind and there has been a lot of new and exciting things happening in my life. Hopefully I’ll be able to get back to regular blogging soon. The weather has been scorching hot lately. I love the sunshine and the good […]…
Before this week, I’ve only used my ice cream maker at most 3-4 times and I’ve had this ice cream maker for many years now. I’m not sure what the sudden change is but I’ve managed to make 3 ice creams in the past 4 days. That’s almost 1 litre of ice cream a day! […]…
I’m sure like many of you, I am addicted to reading food magazines. I just can’t go past those delicious and beautifully styled photography and trust worthy recipes that also give me insight into seasonal ingredients and provide endless inspiration for new dishes to make.…
It has been a very warm few days in Melbourne. I have really missed and loved the feeling of the hot air on my face as I opened the car door and then being able to roll up my sleeves and roll down the windows while driving. Temperatures at around 27-28C is my favourite, it […]…
I have this tendency to buy a lot of ingredients on a whim without much thought as to what I will use it for and whether I’d even have time. This is a very bad habit as I constantly see perfectly good produce looking sad and not fresh then having to make things in a […]…
Although I’ve been back for a few days already from my trip, I still can’t seem to get into the routine blogging thing. I’m blaming it on the excessive mental concentration of driving and strenuous exercises (which might be nothing for most people but I never exercise!). Yesterday was just a lazy day of sitting […]…
I’ve been so busy in the last few days you’d be amazed. I’ve already been on 3 planes in the last week and about to board another one tomorrow morning. Although it’s been very tiring and hectic at times, it has also been quite fun and rewarding. For starters, I had my very first scuba […]…
I’ve had a terrible week with my baking adventures. First I burnt a cake but Yuye salvaged it, then I made chocolate brownie cookies that were all different sizes. At least my non-baked desserts turned out quite nicely. I blame it all on Yuye’s bad oven (but more probably my lack of skills).…
I’ve always been a little hesitant about using my microwave to cook food. I mean, heating things up is one thing but cooking something from scratch in that slightly scary buzzing box of I-don’t-know-what-goes-on-in-there just seems a bit off putting. It might have been my traumatising memories of accidental burnt spoons from back in my […]…
