delish portrait

food smells often evoke our old memories and this video was such a one. this video was filmed in the old quarter where i stayed during my long holiday, their beautiful language is now resonating in my ears so nicely with good memories... it's time to cook supper now, i do feel like a bowl of phở hà nội with fresh hearbs...

thanks anastasia of LAccentNou for including my earrings in the treasury "dream big"!! 

春、spring


it's around 15 dgrees here. the sky looks so different from a week ago, so blue and fresh!  it's time to change my wardrobe from wool to cotton...

baking, stitching and knitting


N&Y invited me for yakitori-dinner this evening and i baked my favorite tricks "caramel cheese cake" and "brownie" as souvenirs. they both turned out great, hope they're not on a diet...  
january really flew by and it's already february...  it's supposed to be my luckiest month of the year by a fortune teller, i have to let my eyes and mind widely open!
