Getting High on FOOD ; )

Today is an extremely haPPy day for me : )

Simply ‘cos it revolved around food.

I woke up bright and early and baked a loaf of apricot nutty bread before 9am. Had a good tennis session, followed by a very good Korean lunch @ Ju Shin Jung, off Pasir Panjang. There was a very good-looking Korean manager there too : )

And then I made my own strawberry mango jam and gingerbread boys! As I took the 'boys' out from the oven, I was wondering if they would hop off the tray and run away, just like the fairy tales I grew up with. Anyway, both are new attempts in preparation of X'mas gifts for friends… pretty proud of myself, I must say.

I’m no food connoisseur but I do live to eat. Can’t imagine what will happen if I can’t get good food. I remembered how sad I was last year when there was a shortage of eggs (‘cos of bird flu) and I couldn’t find eggs to bake my cakes and cookies!

So I always count my blessings that I have three good meals every day and I’m able to bake and cook what I want. It's sad that there are many unfortunate people at different corners of the world who have to go hungry without food.

May God bless them.

Run, Gingerbread Boys, RUN!
