Twinkle Twinkle

It's been a while since I last posted! My new job has just taken over and I lost my inspiration and the little things in life that makes everything worth while. But after finally taking a break, stepping back, looking at the stars; life is looking bright once more.

Strawberry Love

ah~ February the month of love. And what food better represents this than strawberries. Here are a couple of strawberry inspired foods that I have come across this month.

Mini French Toast, with strawberry cream garnish...Cute and Delicious

Homemade Mimosa

Strawberry, oats, rose petals, greentea, herbs, oil and sugar makes the best organic facemask.

Strawberry Roll Cake

Valentine's Day Chocolate, cutely wrapped and made by one of my girls!

Taste the Rainbow

There is an amazing tea house in the city. They have every single tea, not to mention the packaging is cute and colourful.

Year of the Dragon

Gong Xi Gong Xi! Happy Chinese New Year Everyone!

It is the year of the dragon! My sister's year :) I hope this year will bring you all good fortune! The end of last year something unexpected, sad and tragic happened so in tradition my family and I did not celebrate Chinese New Year this year. But I would like to share the little things that will make this year special.

Starting the new year with Tubereuse scented Diptyque candle.

As part of my New Years Resolution 2012- eat healthy!
Banana with delicious muesli "Spezial" from Switzerland.

Red is the colour on Chinese New Year. My new Chanel "Rouge Carat" winter collection 2011 :)

An arrow I bought from a temple near my house. With a picture of a dragon. You can write your wish behind it. Arrows bring luck and ward off evil spirits, after a year you can bring it back to the temple and they will burn it.

New Years Card

Instead of sending christmas cards, the Japanese send new year cards. Noot just one or two but hundreds to families, friends and coworkers. I sent one to my school and they hung it on the bulletin board in the staff room♥! They told me my handwriting was cute like a child's haha

Necklace in Wonderland

A few weeks ago I was inspired to draw an illustration from a cute Wonderland necklace here. Unfortunately the necklace was sold out, but last week they were back in stock and I just couldn't resist. One of the best buys ever! It's adorable with little cookies inside... (don't think it's edible though :( I might replace it with edible ones haha). Everytime I wear it, it feels likes it's my ticket to Wonderland, one bite and I'll be small enough to fit into a rabbit hole? :D

Easter Feast

And...Easter is past, time does fly. I did a lot this Easter but one of my favourites this year was eating Lunch made by my Mum. She is a genius cook and painter! I'll definately have to get the recipes from her, there is still so much I need to learn :)

My mum's home made spaghetti, lasagna, tuna pasta, pumpkin soup, salad and garlic bread. Oh my absolutely amazing♥

Hot cross buns and a cold cup of mocha frappe

Easter eggs and chickiess. I had these little chickies for a few years now, could never have the heart to throw them out :D

My pet bird, Tweety. Sitting on my computer lol

A large Guylian, perfect excuse to eat it all on Easter haha

Moon Flower

Yesterday my parents bought home a flower called Dutchman's Pipe Cactus (Epiphyllum oxypetalum) The flower petals are pure in white colour with a tinge of yellow in the middle. And it has a very nice fragrance once it starts to bloom. Mysteriously, this beautiful flower will only bloom at night and only for one night. Its the most romantic yet saddest flower I've ever seen. I wished it lasted more than one night. Officially this is now my favourite plant☆彡

Disney Dream Kitchen

Behold my dream kitchen ♥In disneyland there are always displays in front of the stores near the entrance of the park. One display in particular was this Mickey mouse kitchen. Most of the items shown actually can be bought from inside the store!! Unfortunatley my luggage was full so i couldnt buy everything. This is some of my collection so far...

Not nearly as close! Somethings needed were actually in the online disneystore! I made my wishlist a few days ago and today went online to check on it again and half of it is sold out! Whhaat?! I guess I'm not the only one out there wanting this dream kitchen :P :P Let's hope they are back in stock after my next pay day :)

Eco-Friendly Cups

I love having my own personal cup either for leisure, work or parties it's always fun. A personal favourite of mine is the resuable plastic starbucks cup-a special christmas edition (It feels like Christmas everytime I drink from this cup!!^^)

Another one I have is the Eco-Friendly Ellen DeGeneres tumbler which can hold my hot or cold beverages, the colour is also a nice metallic blue!

And last but not least my much bigger liquid storage cup with "Tonari no Totoro" pictures on one side. I got this from Osaka's Itami Airport on my flight to Miyazaki-shi. It's quite a big jug and is great for parties instead of having to walk back and forth to refill one's drink. Also it good to hold cold tea or freshly made juice in the summer! (Fits into the fridge nicely :D )
