Cupcakes for Artists

by Gilian, in category Cupcakes, Food

I was planning to give these cupcakes to a friend who loves painting. It was his birthday, but the taste of the chocolate cupcake I made from scratch was a total fail. The after taste of the cupcake due to the baking soda overpowered the cupcake’s overall taste. I don’t usually add baking soda to… Read More

2006 Plane Diaries: The Strong Tree

by Gilian, in category Reflections, TRAVEL, Words

It was almost evening, the plane was full. Full of tired individuals wishing for a faster way to reach their destinations. The amazing blue, purple, pink, and green colors of dusk painted my window.

Singapore| Safari Zoo

by Gilian, in category Singapore 2014, TRAVEL, Wonders
