Cooking for Wan: For the Love of Bread

Leave a comment

You may have seen from my recent Instaposts that I have upped my bread-making game to the echelons of french bread. Yes, I attempted to make baguettes. And I did not totally fail. I was very happy about this. I bloody love bread. Not quite as much as I love rice, but it's high up … Continue reading Cooking for Wan: For the Love of Bread

I often get asked whether it's difficult to cook for one (or rather, get told it 'must be difficult') and to be honest, no, it's the easiest thing in the world. There's no one else to please apart from me and if I want to eat just a massive bowl of mashed potatoes for dinner … Continue reading Cooking for Wan: The Art of Cooking Solo

Oh my days I made a book! Thank you @rachel_marsden @novelpractices for a wonderful virtual workshop today. I can’t believe we all bound actual real books! I am very proud of my red and gold special (it’s still LNY!)!
Forget pancakes, I’ve got better things to eat. (Thank you @rachel_marsden @nickmanasseh for these belated bday treats!! 😽)
Lunar New Year dinner! Went all out even though I’m feeding... just me 😅 On the menu: dumplings, roast duck, stuffed tofu, broccoli and some very traditional Korean cheese balls 🤣 Yeah you remember, the ones that almost killed me during lockdown 1.0? I can report that no explosions took place this time 😁 I hope you’re all having a lovely time with your loved ones tonight!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! 恭喜發財,利士豆來! Even tho there is a shortage of red envelopes this year because of Covid 😅 Wishing you all a prosperous year of the cow! 🐂
Totally tore this parcel open as soon as it arrived this morning! These cuties are from @_andchai and @thewinnieproject ! I can confirm that the candle does indeed smell like Starburst (or Opal Fruits as I still call them)! I love the little postcards by Winnie - they are going up on my walls ASAP!
This weekend is all about Lunar New Year prep 🧧! Obligatory red and gold nails done. I would usually go and get my hair cut (you can’t cut your hair over the new year period, it’s bad luck) but since I can’t go to the hairdressers I’ve resorted to shaving my hair myself (not all of it, obvs, just the undercut). Thank gods I won’t be seeing anyone soon... 😂
