Some other time we went out to fulfill our sweet-tooth cravings.

Avocado Juice - Healthy Snack

Recently, I have been obssessed with avocado juice :p It is kinda weird if you eat directly (after being blended) as it is. The first time I had it, I put lots of milo powder in it so that it will taste sweet. Some people will put ice cream or chocolate sauce. 

Avocado juice I had in food stall. They mix it with chocolate sauce.
Avocado juice by my mom.

I had it with coffee ice cream and lots of milo powder. Mix it well. If you feel it is too thick, just put some ice cube and wait until it melts before you have it.

Try it up, it is one of the most delicious snack >.<

March Favorites 2014

Hello everyone! It's time for my monthly favorites. I know it's kinda late since it's almost the end of the first week of April. But, it's better late than never, right? ;) So, here they are: My Faves of The Month.

Favorite beauty product:

Lancome x Alber Elbaz mascara

Fall in love at my first sight! Not to a boy :p It's a mascara I saw on instagram one day and think that it's very cute, which become my main reason I bought this stuff :p "Hypnose Doll Eyes" is what it is called. It works perfectly on me. Initially, I don't understand when some Youtube gurus I watched talk about how certain mascara can hold their lashes meanwhile the others don't work that well. Then I tried another brand of mascara (after using this for a while) and now I finally understand it. This waterproof mascara really hold the curl until the end of the day unlike the other one I tried. And two or three coats of it is good enough to lengthen your lashes ;)

Favorite food (dessert):
"Carmen Ice" from Tip Top Restaurant.

"Carmen Ice" is basically a vanilla ice cream surrounded by peaches and whipped cream. To be honest, I am not a fan of ice cream, but this ice cream tastes heavenly delicious >.< Its texture is also different from usual ice cream. The best part? You see, the ice cream is topped with chocolate sauce and mostly CRUSHED PEANUTS. I love love love the crushed peanuts so muchhh... If you are a fan of peanut, you should go and try this out. This peanut has a distinctive taste. I can spot some crystal-clear thing mixed with it. I think it is sugar, but I am not too sure about it, too. Can't get enough of this ice cream (or the crushed peanuts, I might say :p)

Favorite song: Say Something by A Great Big World
You can really feel the grief it's telling when you listen to the song. I am so curious what it is telling us about that I searched the original video on YouTube. Woah!! Can't tell you the feeling. Moreover, when it shows about an old man waiting for his wife, who is on a hospital bed. It's heart-breaking. After all, I feel that this is a great song. It's amazing that the song-writer is able to touch people's heart universally by his song. Btw, my applause also goes to the singers. 

That's all for my March favorites. I hope you enjoy it :)

Happy weekend!

Charlie Brown Cafe

Hey there! On Monday, I was chilling out in this cute cafe called CHARLIE BROWN CAFE. That bus in the picture is one of its specialties. Cafe in a bus? Cool! If only it can move on the road, I mean with the cafe in it, we can enjoy the city sights while enjoying our meals (which sounds so spectacular, right? :p) Actually, we can do it in this 'not moving' bus because the sight on the other side of the bus is the actual road with all the transportations passing by. Therefore, you can get the feeling of it.
Striking a pose with this big Snoopy at the front side of the cafe.
 Me touching Snoopy's nose. Haha
Ceiling of the bus filled with all characters. 
Cute table

Look! How adorable this is <3

Have you ever visited this cafe? Or is there any cute themed cafe in your town you would like to recommend? :)

Good Time







captured by Jo

Are you having fun on your weekend? I hope you are :) It was a long weekend here. My boyfriend and I were going out with some cousins to grab some foods. I have had a good time in three consecutive days. I had lots of fun plus have eaten a lot of foods (sushi, dimsum, and some from street stalls). I hope I don't gain too much weight because of that :p See ya!

Ps: I'll post about my visit to the cutest cafe in town in a few days ;)
