I can’t help but feel that I’m finally a full-fledged baker now that I bake my brownies in an 8-inch square pan.

One thing still remains though, I always seem to be craving (concomitantly, baking) brownies when I’m out of ice-cream.

100: pretty in pink

Been more than a month of silence here, but a whole flurry of activities in reality. Was looking forward to posting photos of this year’s Hari Raya celebrations, but it went by too fast for me to capture as many as I would’ve liked. Work had been a blessing with the Hari Raya bakesale and plenty of fondant fun awaiting when I resumed after the break.

Anyway, last week was the mister’s mom’s birthday, and after some contemplation over what to get, I ended up with pretty pink dining ware (plus candy-striped dish towels and oven mitts) from Daiso! I love Daiso with all my heart, but I wish they placed the matching dining sets together. The mister and I ended up rummaging through different shelves, with 3-4 different designs in our baskets, figuring out which one carried more (practical) items in a set.

I had initially planned to get my own dining ware from Daiso for my future home, but now the completist in me is having second thoughts. Though I’m not ruling out the possibility of having disparate dining articles, of course.

Dexter; Provia 100F, cross-processed

The canopy of overcast skies, the comfort of home-packed lunches, the wet kisses of the cool breeze, the gentle dance of the rustling leaves, and the sound of the waves rippling with every pebble skipped.

Don’t you wish every other day could be like this?
