Sometimes.
I only sometimes think about u… When things or ppl pop up that reminds me of u… Maybe one day soon, those reminders will be gone… Or it will not hurt anymore when those reminders pop up.

...i stayed on my own
I am not into sports. Playing or viewing otherwise. Anything that involves excessive sweating and running around is no bueno with me. I just don’t like it.
Ever since my short vacation in the states earlier this year, I’ve caught the basketball bug. I admit that Linsanity was a factor, but it’s not what you think.
Let me explain, 1) I have nephews, two of them. They play a...

Big Bang Theory
I’ve been watching a lot of Big Bang Theory lately, it’s hilarious. I didn’t think it was funny when I first saw it, perhaps it was the episode taking out of the whole series context that I didn’t find it funny.
Then for some reason I thought I’d watch another episode, and it was fantastic. I think I was drawn in by the drama, and the comic relief that Sheldon...

Dodgy Chocolate things
(Chocolate cookies in the foreground, and Matcha Chocolate in the background)
Everytime I make Chocolate things (frosting, cookies, etc), I always think that it just looks really dodgy.
I wanted to repeat the chocolate almond slivers from the other night, but I had no almond slivers, so, I just omitted it. (the idea to omit was fine, but the cookie had no texture, but crumbly) Then i had the...

瑪格莉餅乾 (Italian hard boiled egg cookie)
(Pre-baked)
These are yummy, pure butter, and nothing else. These are flakey & melts in your mouth. Who knew that eggs, butter & flours mashed together can make such yummy things. So simple, and so yummy. Sigh, the best kind of baking that makes one look like a wizard in the kitchen.
I first saw the recipe from a link that my friend sent me about chocolate almond cookies, I browsed...

book report: I've got your number by Sophie...
I am on a book buying ban this year. It’s something I set for myself, I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but I need to constantly remind myself, as I LOVE buying books.
I put myself on such a ban because I keep buying books in various languages that I can read, but not read them. Sure the books in the bookstores look very interesting all sitting there in the lights and the new...
