Cookies & Chocolate

I love doing my Friday Favorites as I get to share some of these sinful delights I love so much.  I recently gave a box of this cookie to my sister and in her own words "OMG the cookie is to die for - what have you done to me"

Waitrose Belgian Triple Chunk All Butter Cookie

I bought them from Cold Storage on mark down. Just one piece makes my day but I could never stop at one. It is a great cookie to share with my love ones. I love it when I see their face light up from just taking a bite. It would give many great satisfaction if it is home baked but seriously why bother if it is on markdown. Then again it really isn't that cheap, maybe I will have to trawl the net for a great cookie recipe.

The next item on my favorite list is the 2-in-1 chocolate powder froooom you guessed it Cold Storage.

Cafedirect San Cristobal Rich Hot Chocolate.

Add one to two tablespoonful of these elixir with warm milk and wahla on a cold day it is a food from the higher up. With a book in hand or a tablet and a mug of this rich decandent drink, one Sunday afternoon is set in motion.

 Disclaimer: This is not a paid post. Just many of my favorite item to share with anyone who is interested to know.

A Bump and Bummer

Well Dear Readers out there,

 
The long absence of silence and non responsiveness is due to too many DIY hobbies (all thanks to pinterest) sickness and work stress. I am currently 6mths pregnant and the  freedom to catch up on current interest.


I now have more time to devout on my blog. After 3 weeks of trying to catch up with social media updates I realize I am so behind in the social media updates. I have come across all this interesting ideas on blogs which have truly been an inspiration. I will turn to Marc and Angel website to cheer myself up when I feel down and lousy. 

I use to love checking out The Simply Luxurious Life but sadly I no longer get any satisfaction out of reading from her blog. Although that is not to say that it's not good. Far from it, she still dishes out all the fantastic stuff but I suppose my priority have changed. But I still visit her blog from time to time for gems such as 33 ways to find inspiration & Why not...refrain from judging.

Adore and Abhor # 2

I thought I share with you my favorite office snack and some really cute stuff I hope to get in Japan.

Dove Chocolate

The secret to any sinful delights is to have them in the morning so your body have the time to burn them off in the day. That goes the same for no dinner after 8 p.m.

Typical milk chocolate to satisfy my sweet tooth craving.

Glico Pocky Strawberry Stick

This is another one of my favorite office snacks. I once saw this lady at NTUC sweeping 15 box of it into her basket. So naturally I took 2 boxes into my basket to try. And I never look back since.

Cute Massager

I was walking around the children’s department and found this really cute roller. It was the last one at SGD9.90. Well I am hoping to get this in Japan if they have it there. I was trying it out on my palm and it's really quite nice to get a palm "reflexology". I also found the following lunch box around the children's department.

Potential Lunch Box #1

Potential Lunch Box #2

The Inside of the box

As temptingly cute as they are, not enough food to pack in to feed me for lunch. Maybe to use as side dishes. Well gonna see if they sell it cheaper or cuter and bigger in Japan, if not I could always come back here to buy.

By the way, this is not a paid advertisement just in case you are wondering. I really like and love these products. It always make my day a happier one when I see these cute stuff.

Adore and Abhor # 1

I thought it would be fun starting a series of "Adore and Abhor". Sometimes there are things you just love 'n' then there are the things you absolutely cannot stand. Then there are stuff that sort of falls in between 'bleh' and 'meh'. 

Bleh: Purple Glitter Gelish French Manicure

Anyway, I recently did my first gelish french manicure and I have to say bleh to the color I choose. Purple looks good on the sample and that's the problem, it should stay on the sample and not on the nails. Coz it sort of make me feel like I have been poison and it's showing on my nails. I am really in between on this one. I think the Pink Color would have look more pleasant instead.

Oh how I adore these cute miniature stamps. They are the cutest little matchbox stamps I have ever come across. While shopping in Takashimaya, I came across these little cuties and could not resist the temptation to buy them even though I have no idea what to do with them. Later on I thought they would look really cute on homemade design greeting cards or personal name cards. Tada and behold these DIY Cards.

Personal cards to new friends or gift cards.

Lunch Box Diary #1

I was so hungry I finished my salad before I remember to take a snapshot of it. It isn’t everyday that cookie monster got up early in the morning to prepare the lunch box for me. In fact it’s the first. Hmmm no wonder it taste especially delish….Anyway, I thought it would be a good idea to keep a lunch box diary for future reference. 

Taken with Decopic app with my HTC phone

 

I had arugula leaves with onions, cucumber, some crumbly cheese, hardboiled eggs, sweet pepper stuffed with cheese. I promise I will take photo of my next salad.

Sky Juice Modified #3: Earl Grey Tea Updated

-->

I thought I would do an update from my last earl grey tea post here. I have found the following lovely earl grey that I have for breakfast every morning. 

One of my favourite go-to tea for those really stressful mornings. Price wise it is rather steep so rationing is a must unless money grows on tree. Hint: Strong lovely dose of Lavender. Dun throw away the sachets, the fragrance is so strong that I could still smell the soothing lavender at the end of work day. I use it as air freshner around my desk.

Another one of my favourite morning teas.

My favourite tea strainer vacuum mug. It does it’s job of keeping the drink warm from where I sit. The most miserable point in North Pole directly under the aircon vent.
