Got my Konad stamper and image plates in the mail! Will post up pictures and review tomorrow!

Woot! The first fashion/beauty post! So it took a while to get to this post and I’ve been hoarding all of these pictures like the pack rat that I am. LOL. First of all, I guess I should give a bit of an intro about my shopping habits/what I like to buy. First of all, I’m a lazy shopper, especially when it is winter. Now don’t get me wrong, this doesn’t mean I don’t like going shopping, on the contrary, I LOVE to shop (my mom is like this too) but I get lazy to try on clothes because I’m too lazy to always take on and off my clothes. Hence, if I know I’m going to be trying on clothes, I tend to dress in clothing that is easy to take on/off and always wear a cami. I tend to be more of a casual clothing shopper but will go through phases of going for very girly clothes. Since I’ve started working full time, I’ve been trying to buy more office appropriate attire, right now loving Club Monaco, but I don’t make enough to spend to my heart’s content there =(. I also love F21 because of their cheap but at times decent quality clothing, something I can wear for a season or two and not be heartbroken when it breaks down on me. I realize that I can’t but all of my shopping habits into one paragraph, or else it might become a 5 page essay, but I also heart shoes greatly. I used to work for Champs Sports, and I’ve amassed about 14 pairs of sneakers. But nowadays, I’m all about the heels and flats! Anyways, I think I should just start posting pictures instead of boring you to death with a hugeass paragraph!

My kickass heels.

These heels are from Aldo, they have criss-crossing leather straps with a white snake skin pattern on the heel. They are 4 inches high (yikes!), but despite their sky-highness, they are quite comfortable. All in all, I <3 these heels.

So I have come to the realization that I am terrible at updating.  I think this comes from the fact that I generally don’t bring my camera with me when I go out to eat (something that I have to change). No pictures = no update, because frankly, who would want to read a post about food or anything for that matter without a picture? But I have been on a picture taking spree, so wait for another post on a sushi place I tried out today and my very first fashion/beauty post!

Anyways, back onto the topic of this post, Mid-Autumn Festival, when eating moon cake is mandatory. For this meal, I did not go out to eat, but my parents made dinner at home (I helped with a salad) and grandparents and cousins were invited.  Continue reading for a easy but tasty salad dressing.

Yes, it has been seven days since the Fair officially ended but I will still do a post of my two favourite foods from the Fair anyways because I took pictures. For Vancouverites, towards the end of summer, the Fair comes to the PNE. That means, more rides at Playland, people selling ShamWows, performances, and of course food. Many food stands at the PNE are ones that have been there for decades and bring a sense of nostalgia of childhood memories when going to the PNE was THE THING that I look forward to each summer. My most favourite is of course, the famous, Those Little Donuts followed closely by Wiggle Chips.

Just went to Frappe Bliss, the shaved ice was like Formosa shaved ice! Most excellent! Sadly, I didn’t bring a camera, so a real post next time.

Ever since my two friends and I came back from Taiwan last summer, or Formosa as one of my friend likes to call it, we have been on the search for shaved ice a la Formosa style. Why? Well, shaved ice in Formosa is no where like the shaved ice we have in Canada. Instead of the ice being crushed, the ice in Formosa is sliced into wafer thin slices.These slices are also flavoured, for example, in Formosa, I had the green tea flavoured ice with red bean and condensed milk slathered all over it for about $1.50 CAD! It was the best shaved ice ever!

My first review ever since I decided to start this blog!

After reading reviews on Eat Snap Repeat, Ho Yummy and being sent the link to their website by a friend, I decided to try Tenku Bakudanyaki in Richmond.

Cute and creative way of delivering the bakudanyakis

Welcome! After years of following various food and beauty blogs, I’ve been inspired to create my own hybrid of a food and beauty blog. Food, whether making or eating, has been something that I’ve always enjoyed immensely. Beauty – clothes, re-creating make-up looks, and skin care is also somethig that I love doing. I hope that you will enjoy my future posts!
