tick tock! thought thoughts.

tick tock!

with the amount of time i spent on the computer online recently (it was my semester break after all), it generated a totally unequal amount of blogging done over the past weeks and lack of sewing too. tsk tsk, truly a disappointment. it was only today that i felt, time flew a little too fast. then was the moment it hit me that time has been taken for granted again and the new semester is approaching soon - monday!

with time running out, i even squeezed two posts in to one. so let's get started with the first one, which is about the past. well, not the past as in one decade or two millennium ago kind of past, but a recent update.

zombie farm by play forge. heard of it? this month is the first anniversary of the game so the valentine grand prize will be the apple ipod touch 4G - but it would be something impossible to attain since (1) i do not have a facebook account to submit an entry and (2) grand prize is only for USA residents.  though, i would like to win the zombie farm printed tee since they accept international winners with USA address.

baking biohazard

baking biohazard. baking: big hazard!

does the kitchen god/goddess exist(s)? don't answer, that was rhetoric.

i spent most of the day helping mummy to make pineapple tarts (apologies for the lack of photos, but i still am without camera). the weather was fairly warm (there were some clothes out for drying too). at the end of the day, there were lots of egg whites leftover (since the recipe only requires egg yolks) from six seven large eggs. the ultimate question was: to bake meringues or macarons of the egg whites?

of course, meringues are the simplest (only two ingredients, excluding flavouring and colouring) so it came to my mind first. although kclee suggested macarons, i doubted my skills as i made no prior preparations (more ingredients and more time consuming, but i have both). i was also told that macarons are best made in cool weather, and i used the warm weather as an excuse to NOT choose macarons.
