Drew this on a Tues, 16 Nov 2010! =D It's my first attempt at drawing Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji!! I know that it's slightly inaccurate, but I like the pic that I drew anyway =D Scanner's not working, so I had to resort to taking pics, which does look a little blurry here. I'm so stale when it comes to drawing =( My previous attempt at a character was Ed from Fullmetal Alchemist, which was sometime in 2006-7?? I'm not kidding! Not that I'm lazy to draw, but many other things have occupied my time(which I have mixed feelings about, but still cool with it). Cooked on Wed, 17 Nov 2010! Pumpkin Bisque again! However, I instructed my mom to buy MORE pumpkin since the previous attempt had too little...and I think this time's a bit too much haha =X Are you, the reader, able to read the scale?

Pumpkin overload!!Boiling on the stove! The smell was sweeter since there's more pumpkin...the ratio of pumpkin to potato was about 3:1 O.o


Done after 35 mins' simmering. Had to manually mash the bits(again!). Used cream this time around, which made the soup taste even better =)

Wanted to try making a ganache with this, but I guess I can do so when I go shopping for more ingredients from the supermarket! That valrhona choc's still waiting for me in the fridge =(

Before addition of cream

After addition of cream!
Tiny globules of fat floating O.o I wonder if restaurants freeze their soups 1st and then scrape off the layer of fat before serving customers??

Been going on about cooking( if a few times lately) since I've still got a looooong way to go...time which has been lost cannot be gained back, not to mention that time is running out for me, sadly. I guess I'd just have to see how things go in the future!



Aww you're so cute!!




Each morning I awake,
my best friend beside me,
his eyes are wide with love,
and my heart soars again.

As I go through my day,
expectations on me,
my friend is always near,
to soothe my troubled mind.

When nighttime descends on us,
and the world is through with me,
at last I can meditate,
and give loving thanks for him.

My friend is very special,
a truly amazing soul,
he's very soft and gentle,
for he's my cat, after all!
