Inspiration: Birds (Part #2)

Source: Pinterest
Second part of my obsession with birds and their beautiful features. I mean look at their feathers, some fine and fluffy, some sturdy to help them fly. They look so intricately created. The tiny details really does make them who they are. Like the ring of colour around their eyes. The colour of their feathery chests. Even the spots on their feathers. They're such beautiful creatures. Watching them fly through the sky, I want to be as free as a bird. 

And I couldn't resist putting that picture of the bird with the flower on top of its head. I feel like it's just gonna lift it up with its wings and say "Top of the morning to ya!" Haha.

What I've Cooked in 2012

2012 has been a great year. Lived in a different country, explored new things AND I got to cook with many new ingredients. Things that I would only dream about cooking. I just fell in love with the Queen Victoria Market. I could just walk through the whole market all day long!

It was definitely exciting that I got to cook so many new things. With a few misses along the way of course. But these were some of the highlights of my cooking journey in Australia. As you can see I don't really cook much asian food, but I plan to change that when I get back to Melbourne. 

Oh and some of the recipes are on Tummy Thrills! Check it out. And we are trying our best to update Tummy Thrills more. Don't we all wish for more hours in a day!

Printed Shorts

Printed Shorts
Printed Shorts by weiyens
Seeing a lot of printed shorts around. If only I could find some that'd fit me well and make my bum look decent. I think it's rather hard to pull printed shorts off. Some of the patterns look great on the rack but look horrendous when worn. You have to keep on trying and trying on pairs, till you find a pair that flatters you. Sometimes, prints that you'd never think would work may surprise you. As they say, you'll never know until you try.

Update!

Hi guys! Hope you all had a great start to 2013! I have to apologize for not updating. I just started work and by the time I get home I am absolutely exhausted. Never knew it could be this tiring. When I get home, all I want to do is sleep! I'll try to queue some posts up for the week so this blog won't be like some ghost town.

On the other note, poor Patches isn't doing so great :( I'll save you the gross details. He hurt his paw pretty bad and it's been a long week of bringing him to the vet every morning to get his shots and to makes sure that it's healing. The poor thing :( Hurts my heart to see him suffer so much. But he's been a trooper and he's doing much better now. UPDATE: Patches is not doing so well anymore. In just a day it's gone downhill. I have no idea what this vet has been doing. But we're gonna bring him to another vet recommended by my neighbour. Just hope it's not as bad as it looks and it's easy to fix. It's a horrible thing that's happening right now. Pray for him please. It really means a lot to me and to every one that loves him. 

Anyway, I'll be sure to update again very soon. So, stay tuned! I'll leave you guys with a quote from the one and only Dr Seuss!
