Fighting Calories with Cake Boutique~

I already have the scans of Non-no for May and I already have the scans for this month as well. Same goes with a few Magazines~ I just don't have time to upload them this week since it seems like I'm going to be hectic this week and last week that's why no Blog updates.

But I did have a time to relax yesterday. I met up with a friend of mine just to go around and catch up with each other. It was good! We had this bad bad sugar rush after a while though, we had ice cream + milkshake + cake from the cake boutique which really really did not help with my diet at all~ (=.=)

Vanilla Roll and Tiramisu~

Micha had this mad craving for Tiramisu therefore us landing at the Cake Boutique. I have to say their Tiramisu was very well done! It was great!!! The moment you place it in your mouth you'll just feel it melt and it's just great for people with sweet tooth like me! Although I have to say their Vanilla roll was the down fall though and they claim it to be their best selling cake~
(-.-")

After my "no chocolate for lent"; once that was all over I had this mad mad catching up with Chocolate for the whole day... Seriously it left me feeling guilty... I couldn't even fathom the idea how many chocolate I just gobbled up in my mouth...

Plus I gained 2 kilos in a week! (T.T) that's just not good enough... Therefore, I've decided to go on a strict diet this week and loose all that additional 2 kilos!!!

I know it looks disgusting but it tastes good and it's healthy to boot!~ Strawberries + Vanilla Yogurt + Honey!

Like I mentioned above I am mad about sweets~ and if given a chance I would like to taste all the sweet specialties in the world~ Well not all... But anyways I had a craving for sweets today while typing out this blog.

I decided to settle for this low fat dessert that my mom invented the other day in substitute with Strawberries + Condense milk~ Seriously that combination is pure heaven!!! But evil with calories... Therefore, today I had Strawberries + Vanilla Yogurt + Honey~! It is lovely!!! Now not as good as Strawberries + Condense BUT it is good enough to substitute with that bad evil calorie dessert!

I suggest everyone to try!!! *(^o^)*

Anyways~ it's my dad's birthday this Thursday!!! He's turning 50 what we call "Golden Age". We couldn't throw him a big big birthday bash since he wanted to go back home and celebrate my Grandfather's birthday since it might be his last due to him having lung cancer. So really that's what he wished for his birthday. A plane ticket to go back home~

And we do understand his frustration; therefore we will buy him a ticket. Although mom and I are staying here due to work and my internship. It's alright for dad to go, I guess he's anxious over the whole thing since even if he wanted to take care of granddad. He couldn't because this is where he works right now. I know you might think, "then why not just quit his job and go home then take care of your granddad?" It's not all that easy though; with this whole recession and everything it's a very risky to just decide up and go. Dad's taking everything into consideration and this is the only one he can come up with right now.

I hope everything goes well in his favor though~ it's kinda Ironic. I started to feel this attachment with my Granddad when I was home only when I found out that he was sick. But back then when he was up and about. We had a connection but not as strong as we do now. It really is disheartening.

Sorry for letting you hear all these depressive things going on in my life! (~.~) I shall return sometime this week with good news and more magazine scans hopefully? But for now, this little peak of my life will suffice~

Ciao~

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Hey guys! I'm still sick, but I'm getting there~ Anyways just wanted to greet everyone a Happy St. Paddy's day!!! Hope you guys had fun out there! I on the other hand couldn't since I had to rest. I felt really annoyed that I couldn't have fun with my friends. But oh well? Hopefully though you guys had fun!

On the other hand, I'm also quite disappointed that I couldn't watch the parade today more so specially I wasn't able to drink the shamrock milkshake in McDonalds!!! Seriously!!! They only have it on St. Patricks day which means only once a year...

I don't know how they do the Shamrock milkshake but it's really really good! The color is unusual since it's green but hey! Let's enjoy the festivities! A green colored milkshake which is amazingly good!

I have to wait for another year!!!!

(T.T)

Short Update with Kisses~

I just mailed Wendy about helping me with the comments section of my blog. She responded really quickly which is great. But at the moment after I sent her a message to answer her question. She didn't mail me back, I hope she received it. I'm probably just thinking of it too much (-.-") I'd say she's just too busy. But I do hope she'll mail me back soon.

On the other hand, I went out with one of my friends the other day and had this really really good Italian dessert called "Pana cotta".


It's actually my first time to eat pana cotta and honestly it's good! (*o*) We ordered Mango Pana cotta since it was one of the specialties of the restaurant itself. To some of you who is a newbie to pana cotta like me. Well underneath all that mango slices is basically simmered milk + cream + sugar mixed with gelatin. The texture is like gelatin but creamier and softer, it reminded me of uncooked tofu at first. But don't let the looks fool you, it's super super delicious!

So for those of you guys who have a sweet tooth and has a thing for sweets like me~I'd recommend this dessert for you guys! Although for some who don't like gelatin it might not be your thing but give it a try you might like it! (^O^)v



I couldn't help myself but take a picture of this XXXL size Kisses. The 2 small ones are your average kisses. The XXXL kisses is about as big as an average size woman's fist. It was amusing!!! (o.O) My cousin had to slice it up into 4 pieces just to share it with the rest of us. Some of us couldn't even finish it; considering the amount of normal sized kisses we normally eat would usually amount to the same size or even bigger than this Oversized kisses. (=.=)
