12;

It feels as though a post on the transition from 2011 to 2012 is obligatory. While i wouldn't want to go on and on about it like a whiny tot, i'd, however, like to give thanks to God, for 2011 has been most delightful. 

The few highlights of 2011:

1. Moving into 355 Rathdowne St with Mel K.

2. Having the trio spend the Easter break with me in melbourne.

3. Saying farewell to Clyde (first friend in melbourne) as he returns back to sg.

4. Desert and Patisserie short course at William Angliss. My passion for baking was reignited through this course. 8 weeks of 9.30am classes on Sundays, 6 hours per class. 

5. Girlfriend finally visits me in melb. 

6. Halloween'11. 

7. Knowing who your true friend is. KINDERMATES FOREVER!

8. The Tang siblings finally gets to celebrate Christmas & Chinese New Year together!

9. New year's eve 

 10. Lastly, falling in love with this boy. From being reacquainted with him at the start of the year to being unsure if things will work. Fast-forward to now, we're half a year into our relationship. 

For the many downs in 2010, 2011 has paid it's dues with the many better days. I'm truly thankful for the series of events that has past me during the year. A great end to a great year. 2012 looks promising already. 

Noël d'amour

Christmas came and went by in a flash, and all that i remember are macarons, macarons & macarons. Christmas is the only season of the year that really excites me, so i'm kind of bummed that i did not get to go out, have a cup of eggnog and take it all in. I had a good Christmas nonetheless. It was the first Christmas without expectations; one that did not require the notion of presents as a part of the season. One that was fully enjoyable because of the people who was there to indulge in gluttony & be merry. Tis' indeed the season to be jolly.

Mel.t with me.

 Tis' the season for a merry belly! Gift your friends and loved ones with mel.ting goodness this holiday season!


Orders are open from now till 18th Dec.
Collection ready from 20-23rd Dec. 

The better half.

The best relationship is when the other half pushes you to be the best that you can be and motivates you to be someone better. The other half that gets you excited over the things that you know you're good at; the things that you're too afraid to try. The other half who points out the grey areas in your life; not to criticise or change you but to help you realise how you can improve in those areas.

And I've found that in Ryan. I've found my better half.

I can smell the rain. I could also use some cinnamon rolls right now. 

 1. Went bananas when i came across this barber in an alleyway. Such a beautiful sight. Things like this should be preserved in Singapore. 

 2. Toby's Estate. Concluded that Sydney's coffee culture is not comparable to Melbourne's. Coffee tasted flat. Looks like the upper class of Manchester Press thou. 

3. Always cannot resist taking a picture of coffee art.  

4. Early birthday package from Fat Dad. 

 5. Time for some home-made ice cream & sorbets.

6. Just some of Nanna's books sitting pretty on my desk. 

Singapore should start getting interesting right about now. One week till Hong Kong. 

Make you feel my love

When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embraceTo make you feel my love.

It's been a quarter of a year, and i still and will love you just as i did yesterday.
