Bonne année!!

Bonne année!! Happy new year!!

It is a brand new year. And hopefully a good one too :)

I think 2013 has ended off on a pretty high note. I snagged myself the most boring yet somewhat entertaining guy in the whole world. LOL! Sounds like an irony. I have the "bestest" job ever. At least it fits my current lifestyle and priorities in life. Hurray!

Absolutely agree, new year are always a great time to embrace new beginnings.

I think my goals are clear:

• Good Grades
• Higher Pay
• And continue being so cool 
• Ok, and be a fantabulous GF :)

Ending off with a cute video I received this year as I venture to the west to celebrate while everyone makes their way to town. o.O

Merry X'mas!

To all readers of ForFunk,

Have a blessed one and lots of presents this year :)

Sharing with you all some of the photos on X'mas Day Christmas lighting at Orchard this year.

The winner of the Christmas Lighting this year - Orchard Central. Well, after all, only they made the effort. Definitely, a worthy winner.

Nuffnang Lovin’ Christmas Countdown Part 2: Christmas Party Snacks with Ayam Brand

Yeah, I guess this year X'mas just came early today. Was invited by Nuffnang to join fellow bloggers to learn and feast on some Christmas snacks made using Ayam brand products.

I was actually feeling pretty excited because I wanted to go down to Food Playground for the longest time. And as what many bloggers have raved, it is really indeed a very casual kitchen for you to hone your culinary skills. The BF will probably be glad that I have finally re-learned the proper way to hold the knife (pretty much stopped cooking after I came back from overseas *gives sheepish look*)

I know my chef hat looks terrible. Sian, I have really no artistic talent in me. 

I learned a total of 3 recipes from the great masters who taught us with great enthusiasm. And I can now flaunt them during any gathering or parties I host. The Christmas Barley Salad was particularly easy and considering I am a salad lover, I think I am probably going to prepare this dish quite often.

The Chilli Tuna Curry Puffs are a little tougher, will probably wait for the occasion to call for it to be presented HAHA. Mummy can't wait for me to start doing my Vietnamese spring rolls ;P

And to my team, thank you so much for helping with all the tedious preparation work. Honestly, I am so bad at cooking, I can only do all the easy tasks. Kinda of paiseh about it, even though I am silent about it. *Awkward Grins*

I will practice harder and the next time you see me in a cooking event, you know I am bringing home the big prize for you *Smiles*

This isn't magic, but with the same food, these are the dishes the other groups came out with. I can't stress the importance enough on food presentation. All my friends are always bemused and irritated by how long I can spend arranging my food. But seriously, it can either make it or break it. Sigh, you guys just don't get it do you? LOL!

At least now you do :P

Thank you really Ayam Brand and Nuffnang and Food Playground (my bf wants to thank you too), cos you guys have sparked a little flame for cooking (the fiery little passion growing each day)! I thought I liked cooking but I didn't know I love it so much Haha!

With all my stash of products, I think I will be experimenting cooking. Geez, hopefully this don't become a food blog soon.LOL!

Signing off with a lovely group photo :)

P.S: Probably heading down to Food Playground soon with an army of coy people or BF :)

Welcome to the B.A.N.D

I know you are curious. Hey, what's the band? Well it is the Blogger's Appreciation Night (hosted by) Domino. Lol. I petty much coined up the term myself. You are forgiven if you have never heard about it.

This is held in appreciation of all Domino's fans and supporters. Despite this being my first Domino's Blogger Event, I have to say I am kinda of impressed by the number of food tasting session Domino has held for bloggers over the years!

Apart from some casual chit-chat, there's a lot of delicious pizzas, finger food and my favourite dessert - Chocolate Lava Cake!

From left to right:
Crazy Chicken Crunches
Golden Roasted Drumlets
Onion Rings (It was really good. Would have finished the whole thing just that I am afraid people will STOMP me.. oops)
Prawn Sensation
Chili Chicken with Cheesy crust

Yummy, sigh. Super delicious. The chocolate was thickly good. I love it icy cold though. Maybe you guys can try it when you are too full and save it for the next day in the fridge. :)

And some interesting Domino Facts :)

• All the food are cooked in the oven! (Healthy)
• Pizzas can be booked 7 days in advance
• GPS Tracker - whereabouts of the pizza can be cooked
• Up to 5 addresses can be registered in the online account

And we all bought home a Domino Calendar...Yeah! Mummy love the discount coupons at the bottom. More pizzas next year? Haha, maybe baby!

The Promise of Playful nights

You don't have to be naked to be sexy

--Nicole Kidman

And I am starting to have a sense of maybe it's true. Foreplay is definitely more erotic than actual sex itself. After all, our minds and imagination have no boundaries.

And to arouse, I think lingerie works best. It is somewhat modest but yet revealing, leaving lots of space for the mind to wander, fantasize and eventually explore. 

I am recently introduced to Playful Promises, and boy its name does suggest a lot of kinky, cheeky bedroom surprises and fun. Playful Promises is based in London with a wicked collection of flirty lingerie clothing, swimwear, hosiery and accessories! First fashioned by Emma Parker in 2004, Playful Promises is now one of my dream dress-up boudoir. 

Nipple pasties!!! I sort of flipped when I saw it. Haha! I think it is rare in Asia...or maybe not that rare just that I am a real nun. :(

Nonetheless, I still find the design intriguing and a nice nipple decor. :) So I thought, I just had to highlight this!!! Plus, it is at a humble price between 18-35 pounds. Definitely worth the money to add more sparks and variety into the bedroom activities!

And to those who are more conservative in nature. Here are some apparels that are really gorgeous. I have shortlisted the sheer bow blouse and kimono jackets. I really love the way the kimono jackets are paired with the corset! Strikingly stylish!

From Left to Right:

Playful Promises Black Chiffon Bow Blouse - 20.00
Embroidered Kimono Jacket - 20.00
Playful Promises Rorschach Kimono Jacket - 60.00

And finally, (drum rolls please) presenting my ultimate favourite piece!

The peach detail waspie! The lace, the colour, the details, it just makes me wanna go straight to the reveal just to flaunt this piece if it was on me.

I am not surprised if you are already clicking your way to Playful Promises. But, hey be nice and be kind, do save me a piece that I have just made known to you. I really like them you know!!! :P
