Avocado Saver

barbara

I was reading a magazine at my hair salon over the weekend and something interesting caught my eyes.  It is the Evriholder Products Avocado Preserver from Organize.com.  Whoever thought of this is purely a genius.  Avocado lovers are going to love this.  When you can’t finish a piece of avocado, just place the balance with its pit side-down into the saver.  It will hold the fruit in place with the adjustable strap.  This way, the avocado won’t turn brown.  Pretty cool lil knick-knack huh?  For fresh and delicious avocado whenever you want them, just get the Avacado Preserver.

Gingerbread House Cookies

barbara Leave a comment

I am so delighted to see this fantastic idea from Not Martha – Tiny Gingerbread housed perched on the edge of your mug.   I love sipping some hot chocolate or coffee.  Having a cute gingerbread house perched on my mug is just fabulous.  Ain’t she creative?  I wonder if she sells these Gingerbread Houses.  If she does, I know I will be ordering many of them…perhaps one for each day.  Yes, of course I would need some dieting pills later on but that’s alright. They are just too cute and yummy to ignore.

I have just started to watch The Stew of Life online and boy, I do enjoy this drama.  It is a family comedy series starring Louise Lee, Fala Chen, Christine Ng, Timmy Hung and many more.   The story revolves around the family of cookery teacher.  So you can imagine how much good food is being shown in this 30 episode drama.  There are always some wonderful soup or dishes mentioned in the show as Louise Lee plays a mother/wife who has the opportunity to host a culinary show on tv.  My tummy is always growling whenever I see her whipping some mouth-watering dishes.  I better get myself some best diet pills because I am only at Episode 3 and I am so inspired to cook some of the dishes mentioned in the show.

Bring Your Own Lunchbox

barbara

Here is a pretty lunchbox which I won’t mind carrying around.  This colorful Plastica Bento Box comes in a variety of colours and is available at Plastica.  My favourite is the Orange/Red/Fuschia/Yellow one.  Great for picnic or bringing your food to work.   It features separate compartments and this helps the food to retain its flavour.  Super stylish, don’t you think so?

I just had some truffles yesterday.  My friend who returned from the States for a vacation brought a box of MarieBelle Signature Truffles along.  Boy, they were delicious.  The box contains 16 truffles and each has a unique and familiar flavours such as Earl Gray, Tea or Hazelnut.  I like the signature blue and brown box which the truffles came in.  I had a Hazelnut and a Tea flavoured truffle. I think I should start looking for some of the best acne treatment as I tend to get acne after eating truffles or chocolate. Must be the nuts.
