Confidence! Because of my Miu Miu Platform?

Interesting thing I noticed these days is that even though my current vision is still not-so-perfect, now I actually feel myself "more me and confident in the pictures" whenever I am in front of the camera. 
I guess since I can't be sure whatever in front of me, I just do whatever my best could be!!! (Does this sound like a murmuring here? =))

I love a good quality of the furniture...oh, no, wooden platform, the polish finish of the coating on the wood. 


Ok, good soul comes from good food!! I said that!! ^^
I cook dry scallops into two dishes. (Of course, first you have to soak them into water for couple hours and hand slice them into thin strips.)

1.) Fresh baby scallops n' dry scallops fried rice (Dry scallops have a special aroma that missing in fresh scallops.)
I add asparagus, onion ( You sweat them until they are almost caramelized.), and scramble eggs. 
The trick is I don't season it myself. (You could, just sesame oil, some soy sauce, and white pepper and dash of sea salt if you desire) Instead, a store bought Garlic Seasoning did all the perfect taste for me

2). Chinese Broccoli w/ dry scallops
Just because I don't like leftover "ingredients", I saute' these two things together. ^O^ First, saute dry scallops then Chinese Broccoli and add couple spoon water to steam until the broccoli is tender. Ah... the salt, white pepper or a bit sesame oil (not necessary) , and Voila' ~


Cook yourself some good meal, would you?!!

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde
