Felt Art

There was a time when my artistic side took over and tried to make "cute" things. I found this Japanese felt art book which I will share with you. It's super cute!

Nemo Roll

I think this one is nemo's uncle or something. It's old and ugly.

half & half

It was pizza night (again) and I couldn't decide which pizza I wanted, so I made both!

anchovy and gorgonzola pizza

And of course I HAD to have the margarite pizza.

I need to stop eating pizza and move on!

shooting star

I finally bought the canvas I needed to glue my origami stars and pyramids! I had 2 boxes of stars and pyramids I made out of origami paper that I bought in Japan, and wanted to make something out of it.

I used the stars for the star.

and the pyramids for the sky

almost done...

and finally finished! It's actually prettier (color wise) when you see it in real life.

I chose to do the shooting star since I was making it out of paper stars (how original). But I still have 3 more canvases (oh god) so give me suggestions for my next piece!

World's smallest fast food meal

Look what I found on the net! (from picest.com)

world's smallest hamburger meal - and it's all real!

I hope the King didn't forget the mayo!

How skilled is this person? The King should do more of these-chicken nugget meal please!

Hot Dog

We had hot dogs and they were mighty good. Looks like we had too much mustard...

Lush Bath Bombs

I love Lush's bath bombs and bubble bars! They smell so good and its just so relaxing~ But it's a little bit pricey ($5-$6 per bath), so I can only enjoy it once in awhile-that's what makes it more special!

This rose scented bubble bar is my personal favorite.
It's also great to give as gifts (I love their gift box packaging).

Gorgonzola Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:
Pizza Dough (search for my recipe in my older posts)
Mozarella Cheese
Gorgonzola Cheese
Olive Oil
Garlic
Honey

Press the dough out very thinly-the thinner the better.

Spread olive oil and garlic.

Spread gorgonzola and then mozzarella cheese evenly.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and bake for about 15 minutes.

Dip in honey and eat!

very easy and very delicious! This is not the usual pizza, so you're not going to be able to eat more than 2-3 pieces, and it will not fill you up. So think of it as an appetizer or a dessert pizza. And don't forget to dip it in honey!

Ice Cream review

I've been wanting to try this flavor for the longest time, and finally tried it! I was expecting some tropical sensationisque sorbet taste, but it was very very creamy with pineapple chunks and coconut bits. I'm not much of a shredded coconut fan (although I love everything else coconut), so I don't enjoy the coconut bits, but do LOVE the pineapple chunks.

I'm still finishing up the pint, so I'm not sure if I'll love it till the very last bite- but you ice cream lovers out there should definitely give it a try! But I warned you- it's very creamy!

look at it closely...the wheels will start to spin slowly...if this doesn't work for you, look at this one:

The new 100 dollar bill

Hopefully this will be my new best friend. Set to release in Feb 2011, the new 100 dollar bill has new security features such as the 3D security ribbon and the color changing liberty bell ( I thought it was a pot of gold). Wow, everything is going 3D these days... And after showing the front of the Independence hall for oh so many years, now they are going to show the rear view.
