Sheer Vanity

There are so many things that I don’t like about my appearance, but one thing I have always, always loved is my hair.
Thick, jet black, healthy, vibrant and bouncy - I’ve always gotten compliments on it and as a result I’ve always thought of it as my crowning glory.
For two years, I had a GEM [...]



1 (one) sliced middle finger
1 (one) burnt hand
2 (two) cracked nails
2 (two) slightly grated knuckles
Actually, considering how many hours I spent in the kitchen this weekend past, I’m kinda surprised I didn’t sustain any more injury than I did!
Got back from the family office on Friday to be greeted by a frantic mother who’s just [...]



At home today, I have the telly on and Huey’s Cooking Adventures has come on (to be honest, I really don’t think much of him, but his idiocy cracks me up).
The F*CKWIT just talked about kimchi….HELLO? If you are gonna talk about a country’s national dish, get your facts straight, f*cker! Don’t you be making [...]

I am beyond pissed off right now.
Why? Because I am trying SO HARD to bite my tongue. I disabled the ability to select text and right click on my food blog some time ago after finding incidents of people copying the photos and uploading them onto other sites, and a few instances of ENTIRE POSTS [...]



Well, not literally. But there does seem to be an excess of morons out there. I’ve become quite crap at updating my food blog (I really need to try some new recipes soon! Maybe this weekend…) but for some reason, there has been a veritable barrage of comments and emails from people trying to self-promote [...]



I am about to proclaim a big crush on the following news reporter (I’m going to refrain from calling her a journo as I don’t think she actually writes any of her own stories, though I could be wrong.
Now, there’s news and then there’s news. I consider news to be the stuff that either impacts [...]



I am very very sore at irresponsible cat owners today. I woke up this morning and as per our daily ritual, I let Mr Woofy out for his morning poo-and-wee when I discovered a very dead, mauled bird in our backyard. Now, I know this cannot have been Mr Woofy because:
1. It wasn’t there when [...]



My god, is it the end of April already? I can’t believe that we’re winding closer to the end of yet another month and I feel like I’m yet to take advantage of this year and try and accomplish something!! Why do I feel like I’m just pedaling away on a bike and not getting [...]



The way that people behave on public transport is, I think, a very good indication of what kind of people they are and how they conduct themselves in day to day life. Public transport is a shared mode of transportation, and in order for you to help make it a more pleasant experience than it [...]



1. I’m annoyed at the fact that the week has been full of pretty nice weather, and the weekend (my time off) will be utterly craptacular.
2. I’m STILL giggling over an old aquaintance who seemed to think he was of a lot more consequence to me than he actually was. Mind you, when I read [...]
