Chicken Mushroom Noodles

Oh hello! You're welcome to have Sunday lunch with me. On Sunday's I'm the top chef in my house simply since my mom cooks for the other days in the week. So I had to learn through trial and error how to get some good food down for the whole family to enjoy. This week we're having Chicken Mushroom Noodles.

My work was mostly done with the help of these noodles. The instructions say they cook in 3 minutes and I was able to get tender noodles in 4 minutes (probably since my water wasn't quite at the rolling boil I needed it to be). Make sure to salt you water.

Add some vegetables of your choice; for me carrots, strings bean and sweet peppers sauted in oil, garlic and pimento peppers with a touch of soya sauce. Dish completed in no time.

My noodles were accompanied by some simple baked chicken. They were seasoned with salt, black pepper, garlic and a variety of green seasonings and left to marinate overnight. They took about 1 hour at 180 degrees C oven.

Just some simple grapefruit and orange juice to wash it all down. Hope you enjoyed what I had for lunch today! I'm hoping to be more specific with my measurements in the future.

Because you can't eat makeup!

Coffee Date Night with Bae

There are some simple pleasures in life that I enjoy. Coffee is one of them and a good lipgloss. Today I can have both of them together while we go for a date with bae! Sacha Cosmetics has blown me away with their new intense lipshine glosses and awesome names. I love when companies try to just be real with their customers even in these small details.

Let’s Go to Work with MAC Melba Blush

My work place is pretty open to makeup but I would definitely prefer to keep a simple office type look while there and maybe on casual Fridays for work and on the weekends have a separate look. What I realized when scanning though my makeup stash was that most of my blushes were way too loud for the office so what better excuse to use to hop down to my favourite MAC store. :)
Now just to mention it, don’t try attempting to get quick service on a Friday or Saturday at the MAC store. It’s usually super busy. The MAC makeup artists are always so helpful though but you may require a bit of patience. But patience I had that day which led me to my beloved Melba blush. I just needed the colour to suit my NC 45 skintone, be a powder blush for simple application and be matte, not shimmery. We did try out Fleur Power first, which is a soft pinky coral colour but I still felt it was a tad too bright. Melba however was a soft, coral peach colour and look really great on me when she applied with h…

Hot Milk Sponge Cake with Fresh Fruit & Coconut

In today's yummy post we are doing an easy sponge cake (no creaming of butter and sugar involved). Instead of torting this cake we are using two loaf pans to give us our two layers, which we will pull together with vanilla buttercream. I love the rectangular look of this cake rather than the traditional round or square but more importantly the flavors of the toasted coconut on the sides and fresh fruit on top makes for a mouth watering dessert.
