giving and receiving

My birthday was in April but due to many things I've just received this awesome present last week:

Washi masking tape!!!

Today I put it into use:

I forgot to take a before picture, but imagine the lid and the button of this sunglasses case were of the green colour you see on the above picture.

I managed to cover them all! No more green plastic case around :)

Also, yesterday I sewed this bib for a friend in Japan:

I used the instructions from Mai, which was easy enough, but I think I've chosen a too-thick towel material for this project...and I don't have any Sashiko threads for embroidering (not to mention that I've never done any real embroidery before), hence the rather unfriendly face of this bear - you do can tell that it's a bear, right? Right??

I hope her baby won't cry when she sees it...

I love good food.

Do you know that you can use apple slicer on a pear, too?

A friend of mine gave me the recipe for this chicken fajita.

Spaghetti in taco shells - inspired by iCarly.

Mega-delicious-but-bad-for-your-figure cheese snack!

A family menu at Kanun, eaten by me and a (guy) friend
- left were only 2 chicken pieces and a bit of fries...

Yes, I love good food :)
