Valentine Breakfast

If only you were here...

Suddenly Life Make Sense Again

I was awakened by the sound of heavy rain and winds that knocked my window this morning . I immediately knew that this day would be just  like yesterday: the surrounding area would have been affected by floods and the bus lane have been closed because of it. This means I have to give more effort to reach my office.

Suddenly a thought that my life now is being unreasonable popping up in my mind.

Why would I want to spend my life in a place like this?

I don’t know and I don’t want to think of the answers, at least right now.

So I just walk away to find something to brighten my day: a very nice and warm pretzel plus a cup of coffee.

And suddenly life makes sense again.

Cooking Saturday: Strawberry I Scream

Hello, how was your weekend?

I was so busy giving my sisters and my nephew a city tour. Therfore, I apologize for this late post. This post is supposed to be publish yesterday.

Just a quick update, I decided to add the theme "Cooking Saturday" to this blog so I can regularly post my cooking experiment every weekend.

On this Cooking Saturday, I made a cute dessert I called Strawberry I Scream

I don't know if this considered as "cooking" or not because I just grabed straberries and filled them with vanilla ice cream hehehe. Anyway I made this cute dessert for my little sister. She ordered Strawberry Ice Cream when we had dinner together last Friday night and she really love it! Sadly, there was only 3 straberries and she had to share with me :p

The restaurant made strawberry ice cream

So before we went home, I bought a pack of straberries and vanilla ice cream. Yup I decided to remake the dessert so my sister can eat more of it :)

After minutes of cutting and filling...I heard my self scream "Strawberry!!!!!!"

Frozen and messy, my home made strawberry I scream

My sister said the taste is different from the real one, but it still delicious anyway. :D

Churros for Sale(?)

Do you remember my blog post about homemade churros? Well, some days ago my friends at office asked me to bring my homemade churros to office. They wanted to know the taste, is it really as good as it looks like? So I woke up early and made them a jar of churros.

To my own surprise, they like the taste and some even asked me to sell it. So the next day I brought another churros for sampling. This time, I made it in a heart shape just for fun.

They sure look really pretty. A little bit overcooked but I heart it!

And for the result, everybody loves it! So I think I shall start selling my homemade churros at my office, but still I need to do many things to make my homemade churros even better. It’s time for another experiments J

Oh I’m excited!!! 

Cooking Day: Hommade Churros

It’s a wet sunday and I heard that some places in Jakarta had already flooded. Some people in twitter even said that the water had already entered a mall. So I prefere to stay dry and safe at home, reading a book or maybe watching TV.

But in the afternoon I already get bored. All shows and movies at Starworld, HBO and FOX are just a rerun. So I decided to cook for fun.

I look for a recipe that is simple and the ingredients are easy to find. And Google provides the answer : Homemade Churros! 

Flour, sugar, salt, water. Great, there are no egg required, i think i can make it. So I immediately look for the ingredients and a few minutes later I was busy making Churros from scratch.

And voila!

Homemade Churros, my delicious afternoon snack.

Hot chocolate will be a perfect complement, but unfortunately I can't find any at the pantry. But it's okay, it still feels heavenly to enjoy a rainy afternoon with the result of my first try that turned out really delicious. :D
