Study date and Honey Creme

     Today i went out with my friend to study together for the up coming prelims and we decided to go to the library@orchard to study but before that we stopped at ION and went into The Soup Spoon for lunch. I had the velvety mushroom stroganoff while my friend had the tokyo chicken stew. After that we proceed to our destination.




     When we arrived at the library@orchard we were amazed with the interior design of the library, it is a really suitable place to seat down and enjoy a good book. It is really comforting inside, we walked around trying to find a place to study but all they were all occupied by people so we ended up  studying at starbucks.

     After studying, we went to somerset 313 to try Honey Creme, both of us have not tried it before so we were anticipating it. We decided to share and got a Organic cotton candy, the first taste was not bad as we ate it with the cotton candy but as we go along, i start to feel "sick" as the ice cream had a really strong milky taste to it. It kind of reminded me about the experience with llao llao. But it was a nice experience trying it as least i know how it taste like. One more week before i meet up with my best friends and we are going to sentosa!

Baking and cooking

   




 It has been a long time since i post a post due to prelims and other stuff. It is currently the school holidays and i am suppose to study for the prelim but i cannot help but bake and cook. I bake a variety of stuff, firstly i baked meringues and on the second day i made creme brûlée. The recipe for the meringue is from eugenie kitchen and the recipe for the creme brûlée is from laura vitale. Both recipe were really simple and easy and could be made within 30 minutes. I really love the creme brûlée especially the custard.

     Then on sunday, i made bake mussel and the recipe was surprisingly easy. I whipped it up within 20 minutes. The ingredients needed were garlic, butter, black pepper, salt and bread crumbs which i all have on hand.
Korean army stew 부대찌개
     On tuesday, i made korean army stew and the recipe was from maangchi, i cheated a little by using the seasoning packet inside and added it into the soup. I could not wait for my first prelim to end i really want to bake more stuff maybe i will bake macaroon the next time.

    During my free time i also did some hands on stuff like clay modelling. It was super fun and easy the "clay" feels like foam after it has dried but it is easy to use. One bad point is that it sticks super easily once in contact so if you accidentally paste the clay at the wrong position there is no way you could remove it. But overall it is really cute and it dries easily at room temperature. I bought the "clay" from qoo10, they have many different designs available for you to choose too.
