[Poppy Kitchen] Condensed Milk Bread with Raisins and Almonds Topping

July 10, 2014

I started my leave on 9 Jul, 3 days before my EDD, to prepare myself mentally and physically for Laurent’s arrival 🙂 I thought I would be resting a lot at home – slacking, reading, watching TV… But on my first day of leave, I was up at my usual weekday timing, went to the gym, blogged, pottered around the house cleaning, packing, ...

[Poppy Kitchen] Vanilla Cinnamon French Toast

May 9, 2014

A non baby-related post for a change! This time we’re going back to the kitchen 🙂 Saw my bottle of maple syrup in the kitchen cupboard last week and decided to make French Toast for a quick, simple breakfast. My mum used to make them at home too. Just a few eggs, some sugar and a whole loaf of bread (my mum has this habit of cooking for a ...

[Poppy Kitchen] Red Velvet Cupcakes

February 9, 2014

This is an extremely overdue post because I made these cupcakes for a Christmas gathering with my girlfriends, but I wasn’t in the best condition to blog at that time so it has been delayed till now.

I like making fruit ...

November 10, 2013

I’m really lazy with my fruits (I often leave them untouched until they are no long able to be eaten), but I’m quite excited about creating some things with those passionfruit so I decide to freeze the pulp until I need them. ...

[Poppy Kitchen] Apple and Red Dates Beverage

October 26, 2013

Been extremely domestic these few days – resting, reading, cleaning the house, making meals, doing laundry. It’s nothing exciting, really, except that the reason for our domestication was due to Wayne getting into a close-shaved accident. But being at home, enjoying the breeze winding through the house, the gentle touches of the sunlight ...

[Poppy Kitchen] Peanut Butter Blondies

September 5, 2013

While spontaneous moments are sometimes fun and exciting, I’m not one who embraces impromptu activities with arms wide open. In fact, I sometimes feel lost and aimless in unplanned moments. Or worse, when plans are disrupted. But I’ve come to realise that it’s also moments like these which inspire creativity and encourage one to try out ...
