One steamy hot night...

During one of those summer hot night... I lost my head over the heat...
and I baked cookies....

hahaha...I know I should have stayed away from the oven but I just thought "whatever...it's hot anyway...and I want some cookies"

So I stayed full awake until 2am and made my healthy dose of cookies ^^

This cookies recipe is my guilt-free indulgence because it contains no flour and no sugar at all. I used ripe bananas for the sweetening agent and also dark chocolate. As for the flour, I substituted it with rolled oats and almond meal.

I usually eat most of the cookies myself ...hubby likes it too but he's not big on cookies and cakes so most of them are MINE.. hahaha...not so healthy after all... -.-"


and here's some random purchase from SASA.. I have been giving alot attention to my hair lately because since I went to Thailand last year I have lost alot of hair and noticed slow re-growth plus major dryness...

DHC vitamins, Essential shampoo, conditioner and hair mask, and kose softymo cleansing oil. All from Japan. I haven't used the essential series because I'm still going on my Kracie shampoo at the moment...

I use hair mask everytime I wash my hair now...and it helps alot with the dryness, eventhough my hair still look dry but it has improved alot. I have used tsubaki hair treatment mask (the red one) before and it works very well...but it's pretty pricey.. so after I saw Kathy from LotusPalace review on this Cosmetex Roland hair mask I got really excited because it's big (300ml) and cheap (USD 7.7 if I remember correctly). After I used it for the first time I fell in love with it...I think it works as well as the tsubaki... I will definetely re-purchase!

Melbourne is not as hot anymore...we've been getting funny variation of hot days, hailings, storms, moderate cloud, and fine days...

How are you guys doing?? hope everyone is well!! :))

look who's poppin!!

My bro is back from melb and lookie lookie! what he brought for me!! an uber cute piggy bank dressed in harry potter style. I believe if it were to be human witch, she would be hermione lolz.. it's a freebie from an australian bank (ANZ), it's so nice of my bro to still remember one of my childhood obsession (yes ppl, I adore pigs lolz)

and a while ago when I cleaned up my old suitcase I found this piggy doll, it was given by my sister...look how adorable the piggy is...

ok, this is a really random post, Im unable to go anywhere today because we are having a flood...yes here in Jakarta, and no I dont live in an outer rim villages of Jakarta, Im in the north of jakarta...but still we get the flood -_-" the road in front of my house was flooded but just now I checked ( I wanna take pic) the flood was half gone and I can see the road again! YAY!

I've been checkin around blogs, even if I dont post, and Ive seen numbers of ppl getting mad swaps from each other LOLz... I just totally love gift giving ^^" and this swap is getting me drolling so bad hahaha...you know, when you see so many cute stuff swimmin about your computer's screen it's hard not to be excited XD (even when the stuff isnt yours 0.o" haha)

nyway, Im still battling with my guest list. cant believe the hard work entails to it.

but no matter how busy the wedding prep is, daily chores & works still need to be done. I design and trade jewelry (small scale) while operating my salon business.been planning a website to show all of my collection properly, hopefully I can realize the plan mid of this year.

Now ladies, I need your comments. Here's some of my new collections...pls tell me what you think of them :) (all set in 18k white gold with real stones n diamonds). Dont worry, no need to be soft with me, you can bash the designs or the style (as long as you dont bash me lolz), I'd appreciate honest opinions...I plan to make my next catalogue and I just want to know majority's fave so I know which one to go on the first page and which is the least liked...etc...

The topaz affairs...I called this choppard style...there are three little diamonds inside the topaz...ugh, I will need to moisturize my hand!!

As white as my teeth..the pearl is...lolz...

A high crown diamonds setting...

Topaz & Blue Sapphire mix with diamonds pendant

Lil diamond snowflakes on the case (pendant)...

The lucky charm we all love!! (or..at least..me love XP)

okayyy..that's abt it for this post...hope everyone is well, if you're having one of those blue days just keep your chin up and smile!! stay positive, stay happy!

God bless y'all!

xoxo

the start

I used to actively blog with Xanga. and then I had to stop because I went to China, it was pretty difficult to update and the connection wasnt that great so after 8 months there my blog was deserted. It's pretty sad because Ive made many friends through my old blogs. I've forgotten how did I come to know all of them lolz...

Now, after many years I decided to blog again. it' pretty wierd because I know for a while, the only person who would be active in my blog is myself. but hey...I have to start somewhere huh? anyway... I dont really want to write much today because I got a sudden headache attack (must be the bread that I snacked this afternoon!). So, to defy the myth that monday is a bad day and most people have bad mood on monday, I will peacefully take a quick nap. what day is a bad day when you can have a nap??? such luxury that even some rich ppl cant afford doing...

bye for now
