These look amazing don’t they? Well I FOOLED you – because they were super undercooked due to some extremely inaccurate oven temp conversion action! I still ate one.
Which Celebrity Decorator Get’s You? I got Jonathan Adler and I think yes. It’s accurate.
A workout to try next time I’m running outside.
I can never figure out my face shape – pentagonal?
Ben and Jerry’s Free Cone Day is coming up on April 8th! Let’s go together-gether!
I LOVED this article on how to live well without spending too much. A timely reminder for an already expensive 2014!
This write up about the contradictions of what millennials eat and drink cracked me up. I’m also basically guilty of doing/thinking all those things.
SO awkward. I love it.
Apparently there are 3 different attachment types when it comes to relationships. Secure, Anxious, and Avoidant. Guess which one I am?? You can pigeonhole yourself here.

Secrets about flying. I don’t know if I find this interesting or if it’s just making me more anxious.
Shhh don’t tell anyone but I’ve been thoroughly enjoying these 2 wedding blogs: Style Me Pretty and 100 Layer Cake.
And finally – there’s a reason why Pharrell’s “Happy” makes us happy.
SO LET’S DANCE.
When you are sick – there is nothing to do except feel sorry for yourself and drink soup.
OR you could feel sorry for yourself, make soup AND a grilled cheese.
You KNOW what I’m sayin’.
So, Cuddle Parties? They’re a thing. And they’re now in Singapore.
Being sick has meant time at home to rediscover old TV favorites, like New Girl. I don’t have strong opinions about Zooey Deschanel (except her hair is AMAZING) but it might interest you that the carefree/zany/beautiful women that she typically portrays have a name – Manic Pixie Dream Girls.
Next time you want fancy take-out – consider hitting up PS Cafe Petit at Tiong Bahru. The PS Bolognese Pizza is yums. One tip though – get your wine elsewhere.
I watched Philomena last night – you know that Oscar nominated movie that didn’t win anything (apart from American Hustle) – and it was lovely. A very tightly told story which made it effective.
BTW going to bootcamp with friends is a really fun way to hang out. Especially love/dread battle rope!
If you’re in the Tiong Bahru area please go shop at Foodie Market. They have cheap(er) cheeses, salmon, frozen fruit, meat and THINGS. Just go. Ok so I went to the Foodie Market, where I bought cannellini beans, so I can now make the famazing looking Cilantro Lime White Bean Hummus pictured above. Consolidated Cafe List in Singapore. You’re welcome. Things you should stop worrying about in your 20s! Cliche BUT some are especially true. Esp the bit about losing touch with some friends. And get over your FOMO already. Forgive me for another list post – but this Disney gif list of things you learned in your twenties is TOO cute. And here are the MOST FATTENING FOODS on the planet. I need me some super premium ice-cream stat. I’m planning on buying either an IKEA RAST or TARVA chest of drawers and then hacking it so it looks like this or this. Who wants to help? So that viral First Kiss video is basically a staged ad – this video on the other hand, isn’t. This one’s more awkward – but it’s also sexier and I think there’s – more tongue???
I’ve been doing some really satisfying reading/watching/skimming and I’ve gotta share!
The Book Thief (the movie) just came out and is supposedly good and usually I’m not averse to watching movies about books BUT it’s a movie based on a book about books – so no I had to read The Book Thief first. It’s a children’s book and it’s riveting – good pacing and a surprising narrator.
Here it is on my handy dandy Kindle in its awesome Timbuktu case (FYI they don’t sell that case anymore).
This morning I discovered the delightful i am a food blog – the title is too cute – and the photography and inspiring twist on food just makes you want to read and savor every post. I’m itching to make these Earl Grey Tea Latte Pancakes.
The Everygirl is a website targeted at 20 to 30 career woman. It’s laid out beautifully and basically I’m just all over the home tours coz dayamn.
Also a new obsession of mine – Couple Blogs. Can I be painfully chic like Susk and Banoo or amazingly put together like the Rockstar Diaries when I grow up???
Recently I’ve been really wishing that I was creative and crafty. But I’m not… so… DESIGN LOVE FEST is fulfilling that part of me right now 🙂
Also I finally listened to everyone around me and started watching House of Cards. You should too. And then we should start a Robin Wright devotional group together.
Finally something a bit serious, which i know I don’t usually do, I read this article at xoJane (great website for women just generally) and it made me tear up. I think sometimes we don’t realize we really aren’t immortal.
