5 Things I Love Vol. 2: Bits and Bites

July 26, 2019 Paris B 15 Comments

I took a turn for the nostalgic last month, and hearkened back to the early days of blogging, when we’d share little random things in bite-sized pieces, because it was fun to. I enjoyed that, and apparently, so did many of you!

So, I’ve decided to make it a monthly feature – as regularly as I can remember to post LOL!

What’s most interesting for me is how much has changed, or evolved, since my last post last month, so this serves as a nice little check-in for me with how I’m doing 🙂

5 Things I Love : The randomness of life and interests

June 12, 2019 Paris B 15 Comments

There’s this thing about old-school style blogging that I love, and it is, that it doesn’t always have to be so compartmentalized. It doesn’t always have to be a full blown dedicated review post, or a full blown post dedicated to any one thing. It doesn’t always have to be optimized for SEO and trying to game the system.

Sometimes, it is just about the flow, about writing whatever comes to mind on this space we call ours, and sometimes, it is just about being random.

With this in mind, that’s what today’s post is really about. I’m just not in the right frame of mind to write about any one thing in particular, or do any in-depth research into anything. Instead, I’ll let the flow take me where it wants to go, and you can come along for the ride if you like 😀

Eat at Chez PB: Lactose-free Milk Coffee made right at home – Enjoy the Nespresso Flash Sale

April 24, 2019 Paris B 2 Comments

This post is brought to you by Nespresso Malaysia. All opinions and experiments are my own.

A few months ago, I shared with you why you may want a Nespresso machine in your life. I didn’t expect to meet so many Nespresso fans!

But if you’re still unconvinced, I wanted to share with you today, yet another reason why you need (not want, NEED!) a Nespresso machine in your life – milk coffee brewed in the comfort of your home. Check out the Nespresso Flash Sale details below for some incredible savings.

I used to be an avid cappuccino drinker. It was my coffee of choice. However, I’ve been drinking my coffee black for many years now. The reason is this – lactose intolerance. Milk makes me bloat and feel very uncomfortable, so I learnt to do without.

What this means for me is sadly, no more cappuccino, or latte or macchiato or anything that involves adding milk to my coffee. I’d almost forgotten what milky coffee tastes like! It also means no cheese and creamy sauces either, for which my waistline thanks me LOL!

But I recently made a wonderful lactose-free Hazelnut Mocha Cappuccino right at home, with no attendant bloat, and my world shifted.

Eat at Chez PB: Salmon Fish Cakes

Confession time. I don’t like eating salmon.

Unless it’s sashimi. But cooked salmon does not appeal to me at all. So, why on earth I ended up with a piece of salmon fillet in my freezer boggles my mind!

In an effort to make it work, I decided decided to try something – Salmon Fish Cakes or Salmon Patties. I do like fish cakes, or fish patties. It is always a nice accompaniment to make a salad more substantial, or to have it with pasta, in a sandwich or heck, just as a snack!

It turned out quite a treat, and is really quite easy, so I thought I’d share it with you 🙂
