Have you read about a study that people with a "sweet tooth" are supposed to have sweeter dispositions? Apparently, those who like sweet stuffs are known to be more compassionate, friendly and cooperative.
So what does that mean?
It means, it is time to grab a bowl of dessert! It would obviously be fab if the dessert uses only four ingredients. Yes,…
Today "The Italian" is taking a backseat and the Indian is dominating the kitchen. If you are clueless as to what I am talking about, read this.
Even though me and my parents were born and raised up in Singapore, my late maternal grandfather was from Kerala, the beautiful state in South India, often referred to as Gods own country. A land of…
It's Wednesday people! Technically 3/4th of Wednesday is already gone and we are gonna be ushering Thursday in like 6 hours. However I am living a life as if I am in New York timezone, where Wednesday is about to begin (Thank you Forex market). I have been working like crazy through out last week and the previous weekend wasn't…
This is the second post for the week and it is only Thursday. Looks like someone has been working or trying to work at least.
It is the eleventh day of Eid but I am still tired physically and mentally, thus the occasional writer’s block. With more guests coming over this weekend and the cousin’s wedding next weekend (baking the wedding cakes!), I…
If there is one thing I love about Singapore, it has to be the multi-cultural environment that we live in. I love the vast festivals that we get to celebrate and the cultures/practices that we get to observe. Many a times, despite not being in the same ethnic group, we get to celebrate different festivals as friends would usually invite…
I can't believe that it is already 5th day of Ramadan. Like seriously, it felt as if it was only yesterday that I was so eagerly waiting to usher in Ramadan. Anyways Ramadan has been moving along very nicely, serene and enjoyable at the same time.
I have a confession to make. I have been idling around for the beginning half…
I was busy with my cousin's good-friend wedding cake over the weekend.
The bride wanted a simple and sweet cake. I have done quite a number of wedding cakes over the past few years, but I still get the jitters every single time. It is always in my head that this cake is for someone's big day, so nothing should go…
Growing up, dessert wasn't something we ate very often. In fact, we rarely ate out back then. When my late dad was still around, eating out every weekend was a norm though. Mom started working 2 years after dad passed away. Expenses were pretty tight and cooking was definitely a better option than eating out. Lucky us, my mom is…
If you guys belong to another part of the world and have no idea as to what a falooda is, you guys are in for a treat because today I would be sharing a delicious Falooda recipe. The weather has been crazy and only two things are very necessary, the air conditioner and cold drinks. When I think of drinks…
I have been busy. The last weekend, I worked really hard and the weekend was basically non-existent for me. Nevertheless no complaints, at times having a lot of work is good. It pushes you beyond your limits and in this case, earning extra cash was good with the crazy number of birthdays coming up. Every May and June, I empty…
