Located just a stone’s throw away from the ever popular Tiong Bahru market, this artisan bakery is not to be missed. I first heard of its name when I read about it in the Sunday Times and on a couple of food blogs too and I just had to ask the husband to grab some of […]
Left with a couple of soon-to-expire large eggs and not wanting them to go to waste, I decided I’d do a cake this time which I’m sure my husband would fancy (he loves cakes to bits!). Just a little treat for him since he’s working from home. Inspired by the popular British dessert, Queen of […]
I took the chance to do some baking during those hazy days last week since there wasn’t much I could do with such bad air. And my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed these muffins for tea that really cheered us up. Doughnut Muffin Recipe Ingredients 140g unsalted butter, melted 120g golden caster sugar 200g plain […]
This was a picture taken from my balcony when the haze reached an alarmingly hazardous level of PSI 371 this afternoon. The worst haze ever to hit Singapore is still ferociously consuming our air.

We understood that as an ID, the overall renovation cost would be higher than standard contractors to cover additional work of generating visuals, going onsite daily to check on progress, do quality checks of works, act […]
Armed with my computer, mobile phone and iPad on the morning when Jay Chou’s concert tickets were released for sale, I was ready to battle with possibly thousands of his hardcore fans to get the best seats tickets for a chance to see Jay Chou in action. Despite my fast & furious finger movements in refreshing […]
My husband and I started hunting for a flat last year. And we were lucky enough to shortlist one particular house on the first day of viewing with our agent. It was a 33-year-old 5-room flat in Ang Mo Kio, just opposite my parents’ block. Being such an old flat with first generation fittings, there […]
I used to think of Chinese traditional desserts as plain sugary soups with (possibly) miserable portions of ingredients (I’m not kidding – have you ever tried red bean or green bean soup that’s full of water but so little beans?) until I chanced upon Dessert Hut in Chinatown one day while out shopping with my […]
