I love braids. They make me feel pretty.

:) 

And now I can finally start playing with my hair again now that it's grown a decent amount since I got it all chopped off last summer.

蔥油餅

translation: scallion oil pancakes or green onion pancakes

My grandmother always makes mounds of this for us when we visit and it's usually all gone by the end of the day. So I decided it was time to stop stuffing my face (temporarily) and learn how to make them.

yummm
(:

coconut cupcakes

I'm not/wasn't a big fan of coconut but after constant requests from a certain someone to make something coconut flavored, I decided to give it a second chance. To my surprise, I actually liked the cupcakes. Perhaps it's because the dense but moist texture of the cupcake paired with the light and fluffy icing made for the perfect combination or I have a new found like for coconut or maybe it's both. Either way, I'm glad I decided to make these even though I ended up with a large surplus of icing afterward. Thankfully the cupcakes were gone by the end of the day.
