Cake Pop Review

after reading a rather complicated recipe online on how to construct one of bakings latest fad - cake pops, i thought i'll try it out for a get together at some point.

first i baked a red velvet cake

then i mashed it up

after that, i added cream chesses frosting to create a modable mixture

i made it into balls with a blueberry in each one

and finally dip each one into graham cracker crumbs followed by peppermint candy melt

verdict: the final product was not the version i was going for. the outer layer was supposed to be cheesecake but it got so difficult i gave it up completely. the recipe was so time consuming that it took me two days to make it. the taste was no little drops from heaven. all in all, a wastes of time and energy. what a disappointment.

business talk amongst baby boomers

new job equals new challenges. moving back home and getting into a new job in a new field is highly challenging. constantly pushed into business meetings with men who have built this economy - beyond words.
there are pros and cons to being a woman in her 20s trying to break into a new field. the men who bring you into the market are more forgiving and helpful but once they drift off into their usual conversations you've lost them. the meeting between you and them are over.
some of the tidbits include the perks the other guys are getting from the jobs and what cars are they driving. then again i guess a lot of people in management like to talk about these sort of stuff. i don't really care but i would like to fly non-budget airlines.

no manolos? no sweat, cause i got choos!

last week, luke and i mixed work with play and took time to hang out in hong kong with our friends. there were 3 items on my shopping list, namely a pair of birkenstocks, a wool felt bag and a nice work appropriate top. all that went out of the window when we went high end outlet shopping. i took the plunge and bought these sandals. i try to be sensible even with an impractical buy.

anyways, thus end the post wedding gift to myself.
