Distraction

I was in KL yesterday, and had the chance to go around the Food exhibition in Midvalley. Other than getting samples to taste, I had my eye on this baby.

Maybe some day I'd have that for my own use at home. I can't help but drool thinking about it - I could make my own frothy cappuccino and lounge at home watching the clouds all day. My uncle in Penang said that he had his eye on this one model that costs around 3k, but this baby costs double maybe coz it's using the pod coffee.

That made it less interesting than La Marzocco, in my eyes.

I love what we're currently using even if it's old fashioned to others. It's just fascinating to hear the grinding sound of the Astoria, when you pull the lever and stamp the ground espresso. Then you can see the perfect shot coming out with the crema, body and heart - each with it's own color.

With that I could say I would not take a second look at Verismo and Mastrena, even if they're so called better. What satisfaction can you get if all it takes is just a push on a button?

And yeah, I have the urge to open my own cozy, little cafe when I look at them. Something like the one in Coffee Prince. Dreaming again.. :p

cameo

I'm making cameo appearances for now, after such long hiatus. Hopefully I can gather more time and things to tell soon. I'm definitely good at procrastinating - guilty much. You can also blame the ease of letting pictures speak for themselves by using Instagram, that made me opt to be lazy :p

I've just completed I do, I do starring Kim Seon ah and Lee Jang Woo. A refreshing one to watch after the sad drama I Miss You. I can't help but to laugh all the time.


p/s: I can't access my email anymore. Can anybody be of help? It's very frustrating coz I use that one for almost everything.

all about food

Have you guys made any new year resolutions? I think I stopped doing that a decade ago. I am not a person who likes to place any time frame in doing anything.. besides, plans are made to be changed. Haha. It's better if I just have some goals in life without adding any stress to it.

But then again, maybe I should make one exception this time. Actually Dr.Jasbir haven't finalize anything yet, but we're all hoping it's viable. And if that comes true, I need to say goodbye to all the good food for a period of time. Tsk tsk..what a thing to let go of. I'm visualizing that I'll be left with skin and bones. Pffft..I wish. 

I'm thinking of going to Nando's (no thanks to the countless ads and pix in FB they've put up to make me drool) and yet sadly, there is no Nando's outlet at my work place. Sushi is another "must-eat" item on my short list, but that one is probably going to be put on hold until sister comes back. That is only going to be next month (?). Oh, I'm going to bring her to Sukiya that has just opened up here in Melaka too. That's three already. Hurmm..what else?

Can I add a tour throughout Korea for the food, to the list? I need to stop watching Tasty Road episodes, where Ho Jin and Soo Jin are making me restless just by picking up their chopsticks :p.

Yeah, my current dream is to take over Soo Jin's place in Tasty Road.

hot and cold

I am back at home after being "dragged" to strangers' weddings. I don't even go to my friends' weddings unless they're hosted somewhere near, and if I'm available at that time. And now when I attend these receptions of people that I don't personally know, I am at lost of why I'm even there in the first place. But I think you can already guess as to why my presence was needed there alongside my parents :p. The only consolation are the food, like the scrumptious Ayam masak merah I had at Reception no.2. Yeah, I went to two different receptions just now.

I haven't really steered clear from the cold and flu I had in this past week, probably because I was stubborn enough to not abstaining from taking my daily coffee fix. I used to be strict on myself when I was sick, no caffeine while I'm on drugs. But this time I just had to drink at least one cup a day. Am I becoming one of the others already? They told me that they wouldn't feel right until they've had their daily cuppa.
But I love drinking this Mint Blend tea..steaming hot, when I'm not feeling well. It's so refreshing - cool and hot at the same time. It does taste like I'm drinking toothpaste sometimes :p

My mind is everywhere these days, and just now I realized that there's still a lot of things on my list that are yet to be done. I have been thinking towards those even before, but then I'm getting less sure of something else. Decisions, decisions.
