Dear MealPal, Let me tell you how you failed terribly in your food tasting event yesterday. I believe the aim of the event was to get the word out about your service and at the same time, let people know what kind of food options are available. EXCEPT, I didn’t learn anything about your service at the event and I’m…

food, glorious food
I created a permanent link at the top to a list of all the food places I’ll love to visit. (So people can stop asking me for food place suggestions and when I suggest something, all the excuses fly out. These are the places I WANT to visit, so THERE!)
nippon ga daisuki dayo
日本! *clap clap clap* 日本! *clap clap clap* Anyone who knows me, knows that I adore Japan and Japanese culture. There is something mysterious and moving about Japan that sweeps you off your feet, and pretty soon you find yourself being caught up in this dynamic culture. From the timeless beauty of olden traditions to the upbeat modern life, there’s just…
spring time at starbucks
Every time March comes around, I get pretty excited because it’s time to check out the spring time merchandise at Starbucks! Specifically, the Sakura series. It started out in Japan, but slowly other Asian countries (including Singapore) caught on. So what’s this year’s picks? Starbucks Japan Bolder colours like hot pink and yellow seem to be adopted for this year’s…
whole tomato rice
I think there’s this sudden craze on cooking whole tomato rice, but what’s not to like when it’s a healthy dish that’s really easy to cook too? I’m not the greatest cook so simple, fuss-free recipes are the way to go for me. My favourite sites are Noob Cook and Ochikeron’s YouTube channel where the recipes look really easy to follow.…
the domestic goddess
I’m the kind of girl who believes in the traditional view that all girls must learn to cook, sew and housekeep. Well, if you think about it, you’ll be pretty much self-sufficient if you can do all three. Except I’m not particularly a good cook and I can’t sew much. I used to be the kind that would burn down…
night cleansing
Am sipping the Night Cleanse tea (second brew) as I write this post. Was expecting the ginger taste to be really strong, but it’s surprisingly quite mild. The peppermint taste is also not too strong and rather calming. I only tasted the ginger when I reached the bottom of the cup. Hope it calms the achy feeling I got in…
dare to be gorgeous
Regular Facebook users should have noticed by now the ads for this detox…or teatox programme called SkinnyMint. Detox has been on my mind for some time now. Ever since I started work, I’ve been battling a constipation problem. I also had a persistent pimple problem on my back. I figured what I really needed was a good detox. My mother-in-law…
desserts and cupcakes
We have booked the place for our wedding reception. Yay! Though I’m a little sad that I can’t get my ex-colleague to do a dessert table or even bake some cupcakes as wedding favours. I kind of knew that a dessert table was out of the question, but the place said “strictly no outside food”. Orz. There aren’t many shops…
kirei sakura
I know Starbucks has been releasing their popular Sakura goods for quite a few years now, but newbie Starbucks fan here has got to make a post now. The goods are so cute…and pink! My favourite colour! Here are some of the goods I like. *big hint* I like the two pink hot water tumblers behind. I can’t decide which…
