Somewhere Over the RAinbow~


I blame mom for bringing home those addictive GLEE episodes on DVD! haha; I've been moving my cakes to the living room where she watches TV till weee hours of the morning.
I admit; it's difficult to not to fall in love with GLEE! haha This was one of my very favourite clips.



Just in the next couple of coming weeks; I'm going to be going out of my mind. Why? Haha I've got some secrets up my sleeves. *teehee*
I remember years ago; as a teenager... there were moments where dreams of being a pastry chef and having a cake studio seemed unreachable or unrealistic.. I'd humm this to myself. The lyrics transported my mind to a place where nothing was impossible. It reminded me that the world is so much bigger than what meets my little eyes. This song kept me company through my roughest periods and made me realise that there was always going to be a tune to cheer myself up. I've got a theory that music helps heal and sooth all emotional wounds... I still believe this very much.
Well... cuddly toys too of course. I love cuddly toys.. haha I've got a feeling I'm good at making them out of sugar because of the many toys I own since I was a little girl. *shrug*

Not just a "Gwai mui jai".

A 'gwai mui jai' is literally (minus the racism): "white chick"
To say that I detest being called a gwai mui jai is an understatement. I get referred to in many ocassions by fellow Chinese (who think they are better than i am *hmph* haha) as this because it seems that I am culturally and verbally 'western'-ised. Does that make sense? Bah..
It isn't that I am trying to be caucasion; or i am denying my asian heritage.. I am who I am because of the different experiences I have had in my life. I am very proud to be Chinese; i just don't speak the language very much or often.. which then makes me bad at conversations. I can sing karaoke in chinese; I think that's good enough no? haha. I have understanding friends who feed the words and lyrics to me 2 seconds in advance through whispers as I sing. It's the only way I can fake it! hahaha (you know who you are ;) hehe)
But to be fair; they do generally use it with a gesture of endearment as opposed to it being a complete insult......

So what will you be getting dad this weekend?

I'm guessing for most of us; our daddies will be busy watching the FIFA World cup; not too enthusiastic about going out for a long classy dinner/holiday to some place with no live soccer telecast hehe.
Well; nevertheless he's not gonna be happy if you conveniently forget that it's FATHERS DAY!

We've got plenty of snacks and dad friendly treats to have him smiling from ear to ear whilst glued to the tube.
Come by the Delectable store @ The Gardens mall starting tommorow (Thursday the 16th) to take home with you our limited edition fathers day gift sets and themed cookies (RM6) and cupcakes(set of 3: RM28)
The tall jars of 3 in our dad-pack include the very much loved store favourite Happinutts (caramelized cashews); a lightly salted macadamia+walnut mix and dark chocolate almond pebbles! He's going to be thrilled!
(RM80)
*pre-orders are welcomed as sets are limited; call or email us with your details and inquiries.

When i'm quiet.

It just usually means a storm is brewing down @ Delectable-Land~


Speaking about foreign"Lands"; Da and I brought some Delectable cheer up with us to Hong Kong!
We went for a purpose (HKTDC); and yes we did get work done... despite how fun the pictures we took look; it was more fruitful than I have expected. ;)
We did our research for work in the day; and in the evening we did our own little hunt for pretty shops with desserts-cakes-what not's and heaps of other silly stuff!

What did we find?
Hmm.. super duper fun people at the CNN + Cartoon Network headquarters!




I like to think of ourselves as VIP's to be allowed into this super entertaining office; haha We've got a friend on the inside you see... *giggle* Siddal is the bestEST!





Da
really likes pudding.

I love mochi. LoVE LOVE LOVE mochi. haha


I've been going through a majorly busy period in the past couple of months hence the infrequent journal updates and slow email responses. I'm probably not one to run out of things to say; but recently my mind has been so clogged with worries and distractions; it has been difficult to write or share without doing a big major whine session. Haha

Aight guys; Su's got to get back to work. I've got leaves of papers and sketches scattered as far as my eyes can see! Unless I want to be buried in these tonight; i better be getting to it!
Will let everyone know about our fathers day specials real soon.
