the little things

the happiness i get when working on these simple little things; i can't describe them. they're simple joys in life, but much-appreciated. 

i never tire of trying out new recipes. sometimes, they don't turn out so well. and i move on. my latest batch of lactation cookies turned out nicely-crispy, i could cry. baked them around midnight, while R was snoozing on the sofa and jigglyboo was snoring in her crib. i enjoy spending time working on the soft dough; throwing in some choc chips and pumpkin seeds and heapfuls of brewer's yeast. i think this recipe is a keeper, and will probably use them again if my box of goodness comes into reality.

then, there's that box R put together for me. funny, how you realize the things that you enjoy doing, in the most unexpected ways. R and i were walking around publika the other day and i pointed out a couple of wooden boxes to him. they did cost a little pretty penny but i wanted them so bad, that he said he'd make them for me. like, really. he'd MAKE them, haha. and he certainly did. hopefully this little project we have in mind will turn out into something beautful.

food. oh, glorious food. there are people who like socialising over food, but aren't really bothered about the food itself. well, i'm not one of those people. i enjoy my food. and i enjoy preparing them. i feel like food made out of whole, natural produce can never go wrong. and a love for the things you do, will always shine through.
