Cookies are one of the best desserts around, as far as I know. They make fantastic ice cream sandwiches, and a perfect late night snack accompanied by a cold glass of milk. I’m a huge fan of cookies, can you tell? I’d always remember the Mickey Mouse sandwiches from Disneyland. And I will never forget … Continue reading »
swiss meringue frosted chocolate cupcakes
Lately, it seems that everything I see or eat is just… disappointing. The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is one movie so mindless and so weird, you’d feel like putting your head right through the nearest cement wall. As much as I would, if I were to watch this.

I don’t think so… But who/what will should I save from a fire, a box of this delicious mousse cake or him from drowning? I … Continue reading »
Sweet Buns Go Soft
I have a sickness. When I crave for something, it will go on my (almost) daily food schedule until I’m absolutely sick and tired of it. And it happens so often. One time I kept eating steamed coconut cakes, which were expensive, to start with. Another time, to many Atkin’s dieters’ dismay, too often, I … Continue reading »
