Als0 known as the humble cheese on toast which I first encountered almost 9 years ago as a student in England. I glammed the original version by adding chorizo, fresh basil leaves and also smoked salmon trimmings.

Absolutely delish!

Nothing like a girdle busting, artery clogging dessert to end a meal.

My man bakes mean cakes and here’s what we had for dessert a while back:

So evil… yet so good.

You know how you usually take things for granted when they are right around the corner?

Well thats pretty much what happened to me over the last year. Never really paid the open spaces in London much attention.

For the last 2 weeks, we went to Little Venice and also St James Park…

Little Venice… look at the beautiful canal!

More pics on my FB profile. Arch thinks we should make more effort to explore more museums and galleries!

Sorry folks, my  blog has been gathering dust as of date!

To reward you hopefully for your undivided loyalty, here’s what I had for lunch and dinner a couple of days back:

Enjoy your weekend folks!

Just thought I’d share photos of the first few blooms on my cinnamon  basil.  Very delicate!

Pretty…

I would highly recommend a visit to Regents Park if you love roses like I do. They are currently in full bloom at the Inner Circle of Regent’s Park and with the wonderful sunny weather that has bestowed upon us for the past month or so, I couldn’t resist taking pictures of these beauties!

Absolutely beautiful….

It doesn’t matter whether he is Michael or Mikaeel.

It doesn’t matter whether he intentionally bleached his skin, or whether he was suffering from a skin disorder.

He gave us great music spanning across three decades. Wacko Jacko he may be, but he left behind a legacy of dance, song and showbiz bonanza unrivalled by any other star of his time.

He wrote songs about love, the environment, children, social issues… the list is not exhaustive, but you could tell from his songs, the magnanimous nature of his soul. It was always about the people around him, never about him alone.

From a child start in the 70s singing with the Jackson 5 until the late 90s, Michael Jackson never failed to give us cutting edge entertainment, pioneering new boundaries in showbiz-particularly his legendary dance moves in Thriller, Bad and his moonlighting moves.

I was trained in classical music but as far as my brother and I were concerned, we grew up with Michael’s music. Bad, Thriller, Beat it, We are the World, Black or White… you  name it, we heard it.

So much talent, he had.

It would not be an understatement to say that the whole world grieved for a fallen star on 25 June 2009.

Rest in peace, King of Pop. There can only be one- and the One has gone to join the Lord.

Fish is quick and easy to cook. I like my fish with a bit of a kick and hence rubbed all purpose frying seasoning over the fish. It contains kunyit, salt and pepper and other spices which you can buy from most good asian grocery shops.

For our daily dose of 5 a day I stir fried green beans with belacan sauce. Added some deep fried ikan bilis (anchovies) for added flavour.

The rambling continues

The small city miracle has been rambling in London for over a year! After she got hitched in spring 2009, She continues to ramble on matters revolving around her, including music, food and drink, books and of course her ongoing quest to make it big in the land of fish and chips!
