To be honest, caravaning was kinda always on my wanna try list but I never thought that I would actually really get down to doing it. Just earlier this year Mikka and me were just still cringing at the thought of clearing pee n poo from these kind of travels when we were just looking around through camper van halls at the CMT fair.. But strangely enough as fate may have it, we decided really out

Continuing the mini break after Legoland, we drove approx. another 1.5hrs thru Munich to Starnberg. Our next destination... The lake - Starnberger see... After check in at our hotel - Hotel Residence Starnberger See - we freshened up a little and then went on our hunt for the next Beer Garden we can find. When you are in Bayern (Bavaria), you look for beer garden food!!... At the

2013 has been such a bad travel together with Mikka year. All travel plans were either made alone or not materialized... I felt that we really needed a short break away - Together... We decided to do a short getaway starting with Legoland!!... Have been talking about visiting this place for a long time but never did get down to planning it. Since its only about 1.5hrs away from here, why

Coming home from work and cracking my head to think of what to cook everyday can be quite a feat.. I am always trying to find the easiest recipes to prepare. And this is also why I adore oven baked dishes. Throw them in and forget about it until the timer beeps.. Recently I came across a cream based chicken baked rice recipe but Mikka can't take too much cream (and its also not good for my

Came across some natural detox water recipes about a month ago and I was kinda fascinated... Always wanted to make some of these but never had the time nor right ingredients at hand... So, I decided to do a classic with the simplest ingredients.. For those who are also interested can give it a try... Easy and healthy.. Great for the summer too.. Cucumber + Lemon + Mint Ingredients :- 1

This picture was snapped with my mobile phone and I'm sooooo proud of the result... =) It has been a long while since I have written anything.. Feel bad about it.. Lol.. Well, it has been a smooth transition moving from my school textbooks to my work excel sheets. The company is no stranger to me. I was working for this firm for close to 10 years back in Singapore so when they asked me if

Today marks my 1st full year in Germany. Looking back it has been a rather fruitful and interesting year for me. Getting to know all the great freinds in my German class and the different places in Germany that I have visited, Spring/Summer Fests, Canstatter Volksfest, playing DIY lady and also all the recipes that I have not had the chance to try out.. Here's a short picture sum up of my 2011...

The picture of this dish got a little rave from my friends in FB. Happened to find this a few years ago over the internet and I picked up a lot of 'advice' from others. For those who are curious and wanna try, this is my final recipe.... Original Recipe Yield 8 servings Ingredients 1/2 cup ketchup 1/2 cup BBQ Sauce 1 cup cola-flavored carbonated beverage 2 tablespoons brown sugar

A change from the cold cold cold Germany... Hmm... We decided for some sun, sea & sand... and the nearest place would be Palma de Mallorca - Spain!! The flight was only 2 hrs which is like going from SIN to BKK.. can't be more convenient.. *winks* On the flight to Mallorca, I was greeted by this magnificent view of 'Mountains in the clouds'.. wow... it was really really beautiful..  Upon

I am no big fan of curry but I like it from time to time... The other day when I read a news report about this PRC family who complained that it stinks and is unbearable when their Indian neighbour cooks curry. Well, curry is an Indian food culture and it is only polite to respect and accept. Like they say, 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do'... The solution that the relevant authorities gave to

Over the last weekend, we made a short trip to Düsseldorf. As Mikka and myself has not been to this town before, we decided that it would be nice to visit. Mikka's main intention was to go to the Schüco Open 2011 which was held at the Golf Club Hubbelrath. We set off from Stuttgart at 7am and driving time was ca. 4hrs. After we arrived on Saturday, we checked-in at the Holiday-Inn Express

The last time I was in Heidelberg was 3 years ago when I was on vacation here. This time round cos my Aunty from Singapore had a stopover in Frankfurt for 2 days and wanted to meet up with myself and my dear cousin Dawn (who is in Bonn), we decided to go to this beautiful town to visit. Driving time from Stuttgart to Heidelberg takes approximately around 1 and a half hours. We arrived a little

A few weeks back we made a day trip to Tübingen. Also known to be the traditional University Town in central Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The buildings and architecture in the old town is super.. As the second world war did no big damage to this part. Most of the buildings were unscathed and very well preserved. The Rathaus (City Hall), traditional half timbered houses & Schloß Hohentübingen

2 more days and its the 3 month mark for me in Germany.. How time flies... I was still just complaining that the weather is always cold cold freezing freezing.. now its Spring already. Still chilly but there is definitely more sunshine... =) Still 'struggling' with school but I made quite a few new friends. My class is super international.. We have classmates from so many countries. Spanish, USA,

Okay.. I know I've been too lazy to update my blog but still trying to fit in to the new environment... =P Have been here for one month and ten days and still trying to get used to the cold.. lol.. Chinese New Year just passed by as a breeze as there is no big celebration here like Singapore. Was soooooooo homesick during those first few days and I would just die for some of the dishes on the

The nice taxi driver that picked us up the previous night asked if we would like to book his car for a half-day tour and we thought why not especially since we are tired enough and it would simply take up too much time just for travelling alone... So at 10am in the morning, there he was waiting for us with breakfast in hand.. Cool eh?! *winks*  We were busy slurping up our oyster mee-suah

Finally, we arrive in the capital city of Taipei... Walking thru the underground shopping street (which is really confusing due to the many exits of the station), still with our 2 big cases, found the exit which leads to our hotel.. I tell you... It has gotta be a scene right out of a Stephen Chow movie... You can imagine the shock that we had when we saw the 'hotel' sign at the side of a really

After the cold cold night in Alisan (if I ever go there again I would stay in a better hotel).. We travelled downhill to make our way to Yunlin.We stopped by a few places of interest along the way. Fen Qi Hu Old   Street (奋起湖老街) - to eat the 'famous' Railway Bento (铁路便当). Bought a lot of ginger tea from there.. haha... When we arrived back in Jiayi, we also went to the Wen Hua Lu (文化路) Night

Its a pity that Keani couldn't join us in the last minute but she would have freaked out at our pace.. To be honest, even I was surprised with myself that I could do all that walking.. keke...

Made my 'annual' trip to Bangkok over the last weekend. Just as expected, things were just not the same anymore... There were so few tourists around and the malls were relatively 'empty'. The shops closed much earlier than expected and there were actually not much to see anymore. We stayed at Grand Diamond Suites (again) which is next to Platimun Mall opposite the Pratunam Wholesale Market. We

After a BIG break from my driving lessons due to my wedding, moving home and exam, I was finally back to learning how to operate that mean machine called 'Auto'..... My first lesson back in the driving school was a compulsory lesson for the Automatic car... (i'm actually learning the manual) Cool!! Its really like what Mikka says.. an arcade machine...
