A table for two

Day 7. Guess who’s birthday it is today? Most people I’ve shown the Royal Selangor Nick Munro jelly mould to will immediately associated with Madonna. (I wonder why?) And when I asked The Pom for jelly ideas, he had a play with them and naturally cupped them on his chest. ~*palmed face*~ Besides, this 30-day [...]

Coffee! You can sleep when you’re dead! I can’t help but just crack myself up laughing when I saw this sign post at the Single Origin warehouse and I am sure there are a lot of caffeine addicts out there can relate to it. I love coffee, but probably not as much as The Pom. [...]

A science laboratory or a cafe? I am no coffee connoisseur, actually far from it. But I do love my coffee, and know what I like when I tasted a good one. However, brewing coffee using a Syphon filter device and Bunsen burner is all a little too complicated for me, best to leave this [...]

One of Amélie Poulain‘s† favorite moments is cracking créme brulée with a teaspoon – I agree whole heartedly. A tiny pot of creme custard sealed with a shiny layer of golden brown toffee, and the little “crack” sound when you hit it with the back of the teaspoon, that little short moment always bring out [...]

Winter has passed and welcome the spring. Unfortunately there is no sunshine, no spring breeze, but instead of heavy down pour, and gustly wind for the last few days.
