The opera cake

Image
(Bought from Coffee Bean Tea Leaf SG) After eating, I really feel like singing in opera because it was just so good. Although there were some cracks on the top layer, but it was the galaxy-like layer that mesmerized me. The taste of very much like tiramisu but after a search, then I knew that some of their main ingredients differed.

Painting by numbers

Image
Saw this painting by numbers canvas quite a while ago. Finally got it to complete as a gift. The set comprised of 3 different size paint brush, the set of colors required for the painting, the canvas with the color numbers printed, a small picture of the colored painting and the hooks. Overall was fun but took me a few days to complete because I didn't want my painting to be accidentally smudged by the paint colors. The completed version I started with the smaller/inner areas and/or colors that are lighter tone. Took roughly 2 weeks for me to complete because I stopped in between a few days as I want it to be completely dry. Some of the colors given in the kit set were already harden and I tried adding water to "revive" it. The other difference of what it was supposed to be was the outermost green color background as the green color paint was completed dried. I mixed the remaining colors from the kit set ...

Korean Snack HBAF Almonds - Wasabi VS Tteokbokki

Image
Years ago when I first tried the Wasabi Almond, I liked it. It was spicy that I had to drink lots of water and it was quite dry after a handful of it so it was really just 1 time attempt eating the almond. Years later, I saw it on Nego King "HBAF Almond" episode that I suddenly had the craved for them once again. (Gotta say the deal that Nego King gave was really good. A pity it wasn't available for international purchase) So... I bought the 2 flavors: Wasabi Almond (And I finished it within 2 days) Tteokbokki Almond (First time try, and still have half a pack to go) My friend got the Garlic Bread Almond and he commented that apart from Almond, there were bits of garlic bread as well. It was interesting. For the ones I got, it was pure Almond though.

Donki sweet potato XXL!

Image
My very first "encounter" with the donki XXL sweet potato which was priced at $4.50. Very amazingly big and the fragrance of the Baked Sweet Potato was so "Wow" and I knew I gonna buy it! Superb big size.  Bigger than my dining fork! I airfried it at 160 degree celsius for another 10 mins because it was cold when I brought it home. Goes so well with my tea.  My all time favorite sweet potato. (AND it's really BIG)

The Witch: Part 2 - The Other One (2022) - Review

I was so so so excited that it is finally here in theater. But at the end, I was left... hm... I should have read the synopsis before I step into the theater. Spoilers ahead! Don't not read on if you decided to go for the movie! Because after a long~~~~anticipation, I realized I won't be seeing Goo Ja-yoon ( Kim Da Mi ) because this is about " The Other One ". But okay.. she did appear, but only at the end of the movie. The movie action is almost non-stop and it seemed like ' Girl ' ( Shin Si-ah ) was the ultimate version of  Goo Ja-yoon .  Girl is the complete opposite of  Goo Ja-yoon 's brought up and so everything was new to her. The movie felt like another version of  Goo Ja-yoon,  with more action and more details such as the various groups that are interlinked with the scientists etc.  Hope it won't be a long wait to the next sequel. 

Craft Ideas - Alphabet Characters Resin Keychain

Image
Having bought tons and tons of materials, finally it was time to put them to good use. With clear UV resin, dried flowers, nail arts decoration pieces, characters beads and colorings, it took a few days to complete the alphabet piece. Because it required several touch up such as filling up the gaps (I should have use a hair dryer to remove the air bubble too but I didn't) and then sanding the edges for a smooth surface before I applied another layer of clear UV resin on it. I spent more time on mix and match than putting them together. (LOL) (Flower piece for the ladies) Another design that was made simpler and neat, but I wanted that edgy feel so I didn't sand it off so it look more defined. (And just a simple alphabet part for the men)  

CRAFT PROJECT IDEAS – GLASS BOTTLE FLOWER WITH LED

Image
  Materials: I assembled yet another glass bottle with a 10 LEDs fairylight, a stalk of artificial lavender, assorted beads, 2 seashells, and decoration sands mixed with acrylic paint. How I assembled them: As I already has some silver acrylic paint settled at the bottom of the glass bottom, I added in some decoration sands which of course turned into silver color after mixing them together. After it dried up completely. Then I just proceed with the white beads to have a more even ground before dropping in the miscellaneous elements. Color Theme: Since I was already at a silver color tone, I went with some white, pink and red color theme (the faux pearl beads, star shaped decorations, crystals etc). The purple lavender seemed to stand out in this color theme. For the LEDs: I coiled the LED outside the bottle instead of inside. By wrapping it outside, I can get to easily place the LED in proportion. If I push it inside the bottle, it won’t be as nice because it wasn’t any easy task ...
