The Place Where Fiction and Reality Mingle : A Review

Hello... it's been a long time since my last post, I'm sorry for the laziness. It's a big bunch of procrastination I have for some months back there *biggrin*

And for my first post after so long time, finally, I'm finished editing (some) of my last trip photos to Jogja (okay, it was almost a year ago- I'm sorry, again) But, this things is killing me.. I know that I have to review this great place even if I do my procrastination for the whole time. Yes, it was LIRshop! The magical shop and I'm going there when I was at Yogyakarta (yes, my fave city, you guess). I put some of my product in this shop, you may check it out if you're going to Yogya sometimes!!

As you see, it's one of the magical things at the shop ;)

The owner, Mbak Mira has been so nice to me.. I really like her, the way that she dress and the way that she manage a shop like this was so dreamy (just like her twitter name - @dreamiy) XD and she is a blogger too!! You can check her blog here to know more about her. She's inspiring me a lot, and I love to take a peek at her blog too. And I knew directly, that she was so in love with books. And it can see from many books-inspired that she applied to her shop :)

Pick your favorite book and take a sip of some hot tea

Awww, deer!

Day 5 Favourite Food - Ice Cream!

Today I draw the ice cream that I've been dreaming for all this time. I started to like ice cream since I was child. I have my own way to enjoy an ice cream. I always finish my ice cream fast, because I don't like when it melt. So, usually I always finish my ice cream first compare to my friends ;D

The flavour that I like the most is chocolate. But actually I can eat any flavour. I just don't like if it too sour. 

So, what's your favourite food?

A little doodling on my own journal. There's my Mom's menu (tempe kecap) she wrote it on the label to mark my lunch box. Hehe..

Ah, I miss my Mom, and want to go home.. :'(

Voila!!

if you know how much I was crazy about desserts, cake, cookies, and breakfast for how it looks and taste..

Il Migliore is a lovely biscuit and cake shop from Australia, I found this site from great eat drink chic, one of dazzling site I always follow and stalk..hehe. These cookies really like Lebaran cookies in Indonesia, but with a composition like this, some material are rare in Indonesia, and the price is not cheap enough, unfortunately..


but maybe they also could not find a good spices in Australia..;)


Anyway.., I can't ignore this site for sure..

A combination of parmesan and tasty cheese with a bite of cayenne.

A nutritious blend of apricots, almond and rolled oats with a delicious toasty crunch.

Fresh, sweet oranges dehydrated daily then dipped in rich, dark chocolate.

Pillowy pink and white marshmallow surrounded by rich dark chocolate and studded with pistachios.

Sweet red-skinned apple slices, dehydrated daily and drizzled with toffee. Try them topped with a slice of blue cheese...

Ok, enough, or I'll move all the contents of its website here..
just click here if you want to see them by yourself..;)
