"Doubt thou that stars are fire,
Doubt thou that the sun doth move,
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt that I love."

sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. I chant these familiar verses at the back of my head as I fall asleep tonight. To new beginnings; returning back to where we started from.

gear up!

make no comments about the oily faces! 

You know, sometimes when machines keep jamming up for the most obscure reasons, they are actually trying to tell you that they need a break, damnit. I got my own little fix up over the long weekend when I went home to Malaysia to see my family and friends. (: 

Meeting up with bryan, kwanseng & guoyaw was definitely refreshing for a change haha. We did the most random things, like shopping at Popular for weird animal pencil cases, playing with puppets, running to mamak stores to eat cheese (!) naan. -_- Got a frisbee from bryan though; now we can play, bumblebees! :D I don't know how but these few friends in my life are pretty hard to lose hahah! (Not that I've tried to) It's just, they are friends I can count on lah, even after leaving for 3 years. (: Thats pretty hard to find, you know? 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYAN CHONG HAU FOO :D no wishes for you because Cornell came true. :D 

a little maintanence work now and then is always good. gearing up for the second half of the year (:

dish it out like you'd receive it.

Today was pretty much a bad day, as bad as bad goes. Ah it sucks to smell like disappointment.

outrageous chocolate brownies!


Hello world! :D Staf and I went on a baking spree today! (a planned one but a spree nonetheless) And we baked the most decadent, moist and chewy brownie slices everrr.

These brownies crackly on the top, and chewy in the inside! And get this, it is INCREDIBLY easy to make! :D Honestly, Staf and I aren't the most professional bakers in the world but the instructions were so simply and direct, there was NO way to get it wrong. :D

how about a close up?
It was aimed to be a cookie actually. But heck, it was so good as brownie slices, we didn't care. :D


First tester was Felix :D and he loved it so much he had like 6-7 slices hee. :D


Tempting yet? :D


Happy de-invest, councilors! :D
PS: Png and Vibz has dibs on these babies! ;)

For avid bakers:
Adapted recipe (Original Recipe from Martha Stewart):
  • 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chunks

Preheat oven to 350°.

Heat chopped chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir every 20 seconds until almost melted. Set aside.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla at high speed with an electric mixer. Mix until light and fluffy. Beat in melted chocolate. Mix in dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in chocolate chunks.

Pour batter into a flat pan. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until cookies are shiny and crackly but soft in the center. Cool on baking sheets 10 minutes. Then, transfer to racks to cool completely. Slice according to desired sizes.

Makes about 2 dozen slices.
