The Wellness Project: Home-Cooked: Blueberry + Lemon Almond Cake
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2015/07/home-cooked-blueberry-lemon-almond-cake.html
Sunday, 5 July 2015. Home-Cooked: Blueberry Lemon Almond Cake. This is simply the perfect cake to bake for a gathering of family and friends. And it has to be eating straight from the oven while it’s still hot on the outside, crispy on the side, with the gorgeous fragrance of toasted coconut still wafting around the house. I discovered the incredible Green Kitchen Stories blog through instagram and boyyyy oh boyyy am I so in love with it! I just love the looks of fresh blueberries :D). I’ve never b...

bitter bile: The man on the sidewalk
http://bitterbile.blogspot.com/2009/08/man-on-sidewalk.html
Sunday, August 30, 2009. The man on the sidewalk. It was close to 10pm; it was dark and damp. We had just finished our dinner and had stopped earlier at a bakery for some bread and egg tarts. It was a blissful night. Then we stumbled upon the man. A pile of clothes lying on the sidewalk. A sleeping old man. My first instinct was to walk the other way, to ignore him. To avoid him. To be safe. Then we silently walked away. I wished I had given the homeless man more when I had the chance. I have a passion f...

bitter bile: January 2010
http://bitterbile.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 22, 2010. Are you willing to look stupid for God? But the point I am trying to make is that there is a passage in the Bible that made me think: Are we willing to look stupid for God? Guess what happened to Michal? She remained childless throughout her life as a result of her unjustified criticism. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I have a passion for words, science, cooking and baking, gorgeous sunsets and God. (Not necessarily in that order.). View my complete profile.

bitter bile: Writing
http://bitterbile.blogspot.com/2011/03/writing.html
Saturday, March 12, 2011. It's been what - close to a year since I last blogged? I think it's a curse - that when you become a professional full time writer, you sort of lose your will to write for fun. That includes writing this blog and anything remotely fiction. I want to write fiction again. I miss it so so much! But to do that I may have to give up my day job. Am I brave enough to do that? Seems a number of us somehow drifting back to blogging ;).

The Wellness Project: Autumn in Japan #6
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2015/02/autumn-in-japan-6.html
Monday, 9 February 2015. Autumn in Japan #6. This was a pretty relaxing day compared to the previous more hectic ones. Basically we were just travelling from Kurokawa Onsen to the next city, Kagoshima. Not much that we did along the way. except stop by a rest point for a yummy lunch of curry rice. Here are more photos of the gorgeous ryokan we stayed at. Quaint little garden inside the Ryokan grounds. View from the window. Our breakfast feast. You never get hungry around here. Best part of the ryokan?

The Wellness Project: July 2015
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Friday, 17 July 2015. While we can, when we can. I couldn't help but pick up the latest edition of Kinfolk magazine the other day, after a quick peek at the contents caught my eye. Its theme was about Essentialism. That which we can't live without. What are the things that are at the core of our lives such that they emerge, glistening, when everything else coarse and unnecessary, has been polished away? The roses we scattered into the sea at his sea burial.). What are my priorities? It's something that w...

The Wellness Project: March 2014
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, 20 March 2014. Home-Cooked: The All Time Fav - Banana Bread. One time I was a little more ambitious and added strawberries into the mix but then I realized that unless you are gonna eat all of the bread up on the same day or the next day latest, it gives a really moist (that turns soggy quickly) bread because of all the moisture from the strawberries. Blueberries walnuts are a safe and delicious bet. Over here for starters. X) Don't you just love the taste and colour of blueberries? Plus this r...

The Wellness Project: January 2015

Saturday, 24 January 2015. Autumn in Japan #4. To continue on with the account of my trip to Japan last year after a little hiatus. Gosh, the year end just came and went didn't it? Can't believe it's nearing the end of January already! I must say that we were so blessed with such INCREDIBLY good weather in Kyushu! It's quite a touristy place, known for its beautiful Autumn colors but it was also not exceedingly crowded which has become quite an important factor in allowing one to really enjoy a place.

The Wellness Project: February 2015
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Friday, 20 February 2015. Autumn in Japan #8. Remember I said in the previous post about how I REALLY wanted to try the fried mackerel? So we actually got up at 6am and were in the restaurant close to 7am. The waitress was obviously surprised because we were the only non-locals in at such an early hour. When the time came to take our order, I said something to the equivalent of "AJI! But the old lady was smiling away and asking, "so how is it? What else could I say but "delicious! SOBBB I'd like to think...

The Wellness Project: November 2014
http://the-wellnessproject.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 4 November 2014. Hi all. How's it going? I must say, life is so much better now, what without 4-5 calls a month (which left me feeling sooo tired and constantly in a semi-zombified state) and finishing work at a really decent time (with the sun still up! Trust me, once you've been deprived of such things, they matter so much once you've given them back ;p) to squeeze in exercise, an episode or two of Castle/Modern Family/Elementary (my 3 favorite TV series at the moment) and even some studying.
