All rolled into one.

Okay so this post is going to be loooong. So come, sit down & just chill with me for a bit while I tell you what I've been doing lately haha, fun hey?

My eatttttts.
On Tuesday I had 4 pieces of butter/vegemite on crispy wafer thingys.. I forgot what they’re called! and of course my favorite cup of coffee!


We're happy little Vegemites as bright as bright can be, We all enjoy our Vegemite for breakfast, lunch and tea. Our mummy says we're growing stronger every single week. Because we love our Vegemite, We all adore our Vegemite, It puts a rose in every cheek!

For lunch I just had a salad (spinach, tomato, cucumber, mushrooms) topped with a sunnyside up egg!

I loooove eggs! The yolk pretty much becomes your salad dressing, if you like eggs try it in your salad next time! It ain’t just a breakfast thing ;)

I also munched on a zooper dooper cause it was sooo hot.



upsiedown doooper.

 As the day went by, I decided to become a masterchef and headed off to Aldi on my way home from work. Since Ray finished work late that night, I thought maybe I’ll put some effort into dinner! (I know.. good girlfriend right? Lol)
Once I got home & after getting attacked by Penny’s hugs and kisses I quickly got everything ready in my kitchen. I decided on Sloppy Joes for dinner, chicken fingers and green beans as sides & for dessert; caramel tarts!

I got the chicken fingers ready first..
1 whole chicken breast cut into finger sized strips
1 egg beaten into a bowl
1 bag of Kettles sour cream & red pepper chips (I had no bread crumbs at home so I opted for this. Typically you can use bread crumbs mixed with some seasoning/herbs/spices)

Now that my little station of stuff was ready it was time to get dipping! Dip each strip into the egg mixture and then roll into the crushed chips and then place onto a baking tray, remember to non-stick that shiiii!
Once you’ve done all of the strips, place the chicken fingers into a preheated oven of 200ºc and then lower the heat to around 160ºc and cook for 10-15minutes, depending how fat you cut them lol.

Penny was lucky that night, I didn’t have enough chips to cover around 6 pieces of chicken strips so she got to eat them hehe.

As for the sloppy joes, this came together so quickly! I bought burger buns just for this meal haha..
I felt like having an American-ish dinner! Which reminds me.. I’d love to try out “soul” food one day!

I got around 500g of ground beef and mixed in 5 cloves of crushed garlic and 1 small chopped onion.
I then sautéed it all together in a pan with olive oil.
While it was in the pan I added 2 tablespoons of vinegar, 3 tablespoons of tomato sauce, 3 tablespoons of BBQ sauce, 2 tablespoons of worcestershire sauce and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Once it was fully cooked I placed it into the bun, on top of grated tasty cheese.
Ray had extra cheese in his and also a whole heap of jap mayo, I opted for just pretty much cheese/meat/bread lol.

I also sautéed some green beans for a side, I pretty much placed a few cleaned green beans into a wok with olive oil tossed it around and added a bit of salt and pepper and cooked it for about 3 minutes. I LOVE green beans they’re so yummy and the texture is crunchy! It reminds me of crunchy chips just without all those carbs & fat!

For dessert I TRIED to re-make the caramel tarts that Stacey brought over last Friday, and I thought I was doing good.. BUT my caramel came out to be a thick paste instead of a nice gooey mess :( aww.. and my chocolate melts.. REFUSED to melt!!! Wtf!! I tried for atleast an hour trying to melt my stupid “Nestle easy melt” chocolate rounds and they wouldn’t budge, I googled everything.. Microwave, double boil, add vegetable oil etc. everything failed!! My caramel was crap too so I wasn’t quite happy with that..

I still ended up putting chocolate ontop, just not the right way haha. Instead of melted chocolate I just placed the chocolate buttons on top haha.Let’s just say, I’ll have to try again next time. Which means more experimenting and more food lolol. I’ll try and keep it healthy though!

As for Wednesdayyyy ..hump day!!
I was so full from lastnight and this morning I munched on at least 4 caramel tarts. Blah. I felt so bloated after ><
I made a quick lunch pretty much just chucked the leftover chicken fingers, 1 slice of cheese & a hamburger bun into my bag and off to work I went!
I didn’t get hungry until around 11.30am and since it was pretty busy that morning, I didn’t have time to have a cup of coffee, so for “brunch” I made myself a chicken burger with cheese & bbq sauce and I had 3 remaining chicken fingers on the side which I enjoyed with a bit of tomato sauce! ..Oh! and don’t forget my favee coffee :)

Straight after work, I was still full and I still felt bloated so I wasn't hungry at all. I went and picked up my friend Gel and we headed off to another one of my weekly hair/makeup lessons. This week it was hair.. And I had to bring Gel to be model, so I can practice on her. Anyway. The makeup/hair artist, Trish that’s teaching me everything, challenged me to do a styled up do. With what she has taught me in the past couple weeks (verbal/written) pretty much I had to show her what I learnt.. let’s just say it was a practical test. And my very first one for that matter!

FIRST HAIR UPDO I HAVE EVER DONE!!! …yep. Scary.
So here’s what she showed me that I had to re-create on gel’s hair:




Let me just tell you that when I saw this, I was like HOW THE F*CK!?! ..Fail for sure.

  I did manage to do something with Gel's hair with the help of Trish watching me and saying things like .."are you sure you want to put it there?" .."that's better" .. "well then how are you gonna cover this up?" wowww I swear.. so much pressure!! But with her mentoring me through it, I learnt!! my god, I love her! she's so amazingly talented!! I want her brain! lol

Oh my gosh.. Gel’s hair is THE LONGEST!! Pretty much same length as mine, fahh. Took me over an hour to complete it! Hopefully I’ll get faster at it though! I’m pretty happy with the result, especially cause it’s my first time ever styling someone’s hair. I’ll definitely do better next time!

Thank you Gel babygiiiiiirl for being my model and withstanding all those bobby pins being stabbed into your head! Love you! We gotta get us some of those wispies! haha

Trish pretty much taught me everything on makeup already, I just have to practice more and also with hair she’s taught me so many tricks!!! I wish I could share them with you.. but you know how the business works!! :p

I got home soo late lastnight around 10.45pm and I pretty much just fell asleep straight away. So I thought this morning I need a sugar filled breakfast to keep me energized!! It’s so bad… but whatevs.. I only had one meal at lunchtime yesterday lol.

So I had my usual cup of coffee and I had 3 crisp wafer things and the leftover fail caramel I had from my ugly caramel tarts haha, I just used that as a spread. Pretty good but!! I think I’m off sugary stuff for now.. Think I had a bit of an overload this morning!!

For lunch today I’m having another salad with egg(s)! This time my salad consists of 1 fully cooked egg and 1 sunny side up egg, fresh spinach, chopped cucumber, sautéed mushrooms and fresh alfalfa sprouts. I’ve been skipping salt a lot lately because, that overload of salt the other day in my meal that I had for lunch was the biggest turn off! but yes......

NTS: Finish Revenge season 2 and download Pretty little liars seasons :)

That’s it for now homies!

xo.

Lips like butter.

Hi again!

Told you I’d make more of an appearance around here haha. My blog is slowly coming back to life!
I felt like doing a little makeup post today so here we are. I’ll be babbling on about Revlon’s lip butters.. I know, so 1995 hey? Haha

Putting my lateness of a review aside.. (don’t judge meee)
I actually love the Revlon Lip butters range! I have pretty much every single color. But I did recently get rid of my doubles and 2 that didn’t suit my skin tone (dark browns etc.) So I’m left with one of each! ..With the exception of these two!


hey there.. smexy lady.

 I love Crème brulee and it’s probably one of my favorite nudes! And as for cotton candy.. ahh! You know how I love pink! And this was my favorite shade! These are the only two that was in my bag.. I’ll show you’s the rest some other time since they’re nicely snug in my drawer at home hehe.

Anyways, those two are my favorite shades! & of course.. when you have a favorite, you stock up on those babies!! ..am I the only one that does that? (lol, hoarder) which brings me to my next point! I have collected sooo much makeup and everytime I go and buy a product and I end up loving it, I get like 3 backups or something…. Then I forget about it and move on to my next favorite thing! Ahh.. Such a bad habit. Wasted so much money doing this! But I’ve now learnt to let go.. and I’m only buying products that I really really really want.

Kinda just went off topic there didn’t I?
Back to this old school review!

I found that with these lip butters, I had to really de-flake my lips HAHA that sounds so ugly 8)
I have dry lips and if I go without lip balm for one day or something.. They come back!! (There I go going off topic again..)

So when I first starting playing around with these lippies, I noticed they’d sink into the lines of my lips and if my lips were dry it’d look so scaly and unattractive. After a while I got my lips in order and tried it out again.. and lets just say I fell in luuuuurve.

They’re definitely pretty shiny! And the color payoff is quite good ..after 2-3 coats though, 1 coat will be too sheer.


me & muh lips. quite small arent they.. sad face.



I’m wearing gumdrop in le’ top photo, which I also LOVE!

The packaging LOOKS a bit dodgy, but it’s actually pretty good quality!

Here’s a swatch of Cotton Candy and Crème Brulee chillin’ next to each other. Aren’t they pretty?!?! Now imagine those babies on your lips! It’s actually pretty moisturizing but I wouldn’t say the lasting power of it is that great.. probably an hour or two. I don’t mind re-applying anyway, so no biggy.

Did I mention how yummy they smell!?!?! My gosh. I swear it smells like fresh candy straight out of a candy shop. *50 cent get out of my headd.*

I’ve also been loving Burt’s Bees Grapefruit lip balm! I put it on all day everyday & so far my lips are doing pretty good! I ALWAYS lick my lips, so I apply like every 30 minutes lol! I haven’t even reached a quarter of it and it’s been 2 months!! Crazy. and.. it smells EXACTLY like grapefruit. yum.
Here’s a swatch of Burt's Bees Grapefruit lip balm, my fave lip balm at the moment.



:)



LOL!!

This is my first review so far and looks like it’s pretty fail, hope it was informative anyway! Kloveyoubye.

What’s your favorite Revlon lip butter??

xo.

Productiveee.

What up!

Hope you's all had an amazing weekend! My weekend was pretty jam packed hey. But all in all very productive, social & fun! Which is defs what I want in a weekend - doesn't feel wasted!
Monday hasn't been too draggy for me which is good! keeping me busy! :)

Friday night, my boyfriend had a few friends over & I decided to join them & downed a couple shots of Russian Standard.. Which I still think is the best vodka ever lol (now I sound like I need to be in a AA meeting) for real though, I barely drink & when I do I stop when I feel even slightly tipsy haha. weeeeak.
In saying that, I didn't last & ran to bed by 12 am ..The boys were up til 5am lol.
Even though I was just at home I still did my makeup, cause I get bored.. y'know?!?! Who doesn't like putting on makeup when they have nothing better to do!? seriously. lol.



them pecking duck lips. lol

 and surprise, surprise. I used to HATE wearing lipstick.. I'm talking I'd wear it then I'd look in the mirror, rub it off & just put lip balm on haha. Now my collection of lippies is grooowing, I have learnt to love & flaunt my small :( lips especially with bold colors!
My current fave is: purple lips.. dark purple, lilac, normal purple lol yep.

Btw do you see those sexy as nails? haha I'm happy to say that they're dead & goooone.




O.P.I's Russian Navy

 My pretty fresh tips. Kind of loving claws at the moment! move over square tipped thingy nails! My claws are comiiiiiiing out! (I'm sure I'll get over this soon enough lol)

Moving on! Saturday, Boyfriend & I went to yum cha with a mate. Then after my brother's grifriend dropped by & we chilled for a bit, then someone rocked up to check out our EP3 wreck that was on sale.. gumtree to be exact haha.

He came around & as usual low-balled that he only had this much blabla. I stood my ground and was like nah mate firm at 6k. But then Boyfriend and I got talkin' & we negotiated & settled at an OKAY amount I guess.. Not that satisfied but... the poor thing is just sitting there collecting dust.

So.. that means.. It's goodbye FOR REAL this time, someone else is parting it out.. pretty hard to see it go even if it's a ride off.. so many memories :'(

We're finalising it this afternoon aswell, the guy's arranged a tow truck & yep.

.....

...

.............

...My heart hurts :(

ANYWAY!!!!! That Saturday night, Stace face my wifey came over & we made dinner (salad & chicken kievs - made from scratch & more healthy!) we munched on the dessert she made, giant PODS! omg.. AMAZING. ahh. I want MORE!! :( we ended the night watching Django! pretty crazy movie! I haven't seen her in two weeks!! I missed her head so much :( we have to re-schedule another date night!

Didn't take any photos on Saturday cause I was just too busy to even get my phone out haha.

On Sunday. I got up cranky and early lol! Boyfriend & my mum came and we sold our old junk and pretty much my whole makeup collection! It's fun selling random stuff. You meet some pretty interesting people and for a second it feels like you're running your own legit business haha. We made a few dollars. So it wasn't such a waste of time! haha will definitely do it again!

oh.. and it was HOT that day.. Next time I'm definitely going to buy a pergola just for the markets! haha I was surviving only cause of my umbrella! and omg.. Ray's neck.... HAHAHA it's full black lol!

My feet was just... let's say, fail tan haha



Cause I tanned a cross on my feet ..My holy feet LOL



Oh.. don't mind my toes.. hahaha.. scary I know.

After the markets, we took my mum out to eat at Superdish and then for dinner we took her out to eat Italian food. nomnom, which reminds me.. left overs at home yay!

I shall leave you with my eats today!

For breakfast I wasn't hungry so I just had a cup of my favourite coffee and that kept me full till 11.30am surprisingly.. I think it was all that food I ate yesterday. 

For lunch / Brunch I just had a veggie mix! Spinach, Kangkong (don't know how to say it in english) & mushrooms sauteed in garlic and soy sauce. errr.. I think I'll leave the soy sauce out next time.. I LOVE salty things. but I think my tastebuds is changing. YAY. Cause man this made me cringe! salt is so unhealthy. seemed like I was addicted to it at one point haha. But I demolished my lunch anyway cause I was hungry lol

Then I felt like something sweet.. So I had a jellybean! I resisted.. and only stuck to ONE! jellybeans are weird though.. only ate it cause that was the only sweet thing laying around haha.



Seriously though.. how MASSIVE does my hand look? lolol freak!

 Anyway.. For dinner, I'll most likely be munching on leftovers from lastnight hehe I love leftovers! :)
Gotta get going!! have to get the EP3 ready to go & everything for it's new owner to pick up. Don't think I'll watch, as it leaves the drive way & onto that towtruck! :'(

p.s check out that head lol

pretty spot on with raygay hey?
:)

xo.

It's catch up time!

Hellooo,

I feel sorry for my poor little blog :( I haven’t made a post since last year! And it’s pretty much March already! What matters is though.. that I’m here & I have another post for you. Fck yeah.

Won’t be exciting anyway cause I’m pulling out whatever I can from my brain haha.

Anyways.. I’ve been so moody lately. One minute I’m happy and up in the sky and next minute I feel so down & stressed & just dirt. So I have no idea wtf is going on with that.

I’ve been lacking gym lately aswell ever since that murder happened near my house/gym it has freaked me out! I know that’s no excuse though! I’ve been eating so much junk aswell >< I feel gross!! I totally have to work on that!

I’ve also quit my job!!! Fckers.. WORST place to work EVER. I won’t mention it here but if you know me then yes. Worst place to ever work. All fcktards there.

Good news is, after 3 days of quitting I found myself a new job and currently enjoying it so far! It’s close to home so no more hour long traffic! And I finish half hour earlier than I usually do! So you know what that means… more free time! Yay!! Usually at my old crappy workplace I’d get home at 6.30pm or latest 7pm but nooooow I get home before 5.30pm !! HOW GOOD IS THAT!?! Ahh.. I swear I never realized all these little things can mean so much! I appreciate everything this new company I’m working for offered me! Oh and I don’t have to fight for parking LOL

Penny rolled around in manure ..yeah disgusting. I had to hold my breath when I was bathing her! Naughty little girl she is! Tsk* Tsk*

I was also contemplating whether or not I should start using my tumblr again, but use this blog solely for blogging purposes! I dnooo.. I’ll probably get into it again anyways lol.

Ray and I have been pretty rocky lately. Just seems that we’re in eachothers faces all the time. But I guess we’re slowly getting over stuff & trying to work out our issues and stuuuuff or maybe it’s just me being moody lol.

& the occasional chill sessions with friends and family!! Other than that life has been pretty good, despite the financial stresses! Nothing we can’t conquer :)



Cause we're VATOS LOCOS FOR LIFE HOMES! haha


 


Drunk and bored one night lol

   


Durian & sticky rice dessert that I made hehe nomnom!
