    <p>Robby took me to Liliha Bakery to get pastry today! One of the best bakery in Oahu I must say and it’s located nearby Honolulu Chinatown. <br/>
    From bottom left corner, closewise: blueberry cream square, apple butter square, green tea roll, Chantilly coco puff and apple malasada.
    P.S. and of course he got me a teddy bear cookie :)

    I used to bake a lot more when I had more time before graduate school happened. But when I barely have any time to cook now, microwave is my saviour. Created my own chocolate nutella mugcake receipe today. The recipe is super simple, got it done in 5 minutes! Ingredients: 4 tbsp all purpose flour 3 tbsp milk 1/4 tsb baking powder  2 tbsp brown sugar 1 tbsp nutella 1 tbsp chocolate syrup 1 egg 5-10 pieces of mini-marshmallows (if you decide to add more, you may want to reduce the amount of brown sugar or chocolate syrup) Instructions: Mix all ingredients together until smooth. Cook in the microwave for 2 minutes or until the cake rises up. Add cocoa powder for garnish.
