curry laksa and cupcakes

i have been having laksa cravings for a while now (mr s mum is here and so we eat LESS take away hehehhehe). So after my lil hip hop class in Curtin uni i popped over to Wong's Hawker food and ordered curry laksa for me ($6.50 CHEAP!!!) and 3 meat combo and rice for mr s ($6.90 REALLY CHEAP!!). I then quickly went home and put all my curry laksa goodies into a bowl and added extra sambal and bawang goreng. YUM!!! this was a really good laksa fix, definitely worth coming back for and im not complaing about the prices :oP. 9/10. before i tucked in (i know it doesnt look pretty)
after i tucked in, i couldnt finish it, portions were HUGE - very good value for money.
Dont you just love eating places near students/campuses? - always good value and bad for your heart.....btw....the karawara shopping centre has had a huge revamp, remember how dodgy it use to look? its still under construction but it looks classier now.

so this friday is my last day at hagemeyer, and as a tradition i always make cupcakes as a going away thing. These cupcakes are the magnolia bakery vanilla cupcake recipe, oh my god they are orgasmic (if i do say so myself?!!) Thanks miss J for the recipe, i love it! i love it! i love it!

ciao.clio

ps: im really sad to leave hagemeyer, i really love working with neil and sarah.

oh my god the crap we get up to at work!!

i actually look forward to coming to work on mondays. but that place makes me fat (we have a HUGE tim tam stash).

we all love to spoil each other and as they say 'all good things come to an end'. sigh.....

happy birthday missy J !!!

oops i nearly forgot!!!

happy birthday missy Jo!!!

may your birthday be surrounded by beautiful

designer shoes + handbags + yummy food and delectable cupcakes!!

food is the new sex.....

my obsession with food is starting to take its toll. i cant stop thinking about all the yummy food places i need to try (especially before the entertainment book vouchers expire!) drooooolss.... but oh my god, my thighs,tummy and butt are not liking me very much for it =(. i really need to eat more properly and keep my portions in control. oh i wish i still the had the healthy metabolism of 10-12 yr old. mmmm ..... eat unlimited amounts of all the food groups (sugar, msg, fat, salt, alcohol and carbonated drinks)

super fun and super yummy lunch with missy m and miss c! at point walter cafe, we ordered the tasting plate for 2 and an entree serve of mussells and crusty bread. we totally devoured the mussells before i realised i needed to take a foto of it. DOH! honestly thats my problem, im always TOO eager to eat the food, and completely forget to take fotos until its tool late.
i really had to "restrain" myself and remember to take fotos of the tasting plate otherwise it would have all gone in a "poof".

the top tier had a mix of pickled anti pasti italian veges. like green and black olives (yum) artichoke heart and other random veges i dont remember (hheheheh)

the second tier had a variety of deep fried sea food pieces, scallops, prawns, fish and calamari (super yummy)

third tier - mix of breads and butter

bottom tier - mix of salami, smoked salmon, some yummy beef thing? and some chicken thing too! it was all good and the lemon lime bitters went down a treat!

the tasting plate also came with a plate of different sauces, tomato, sweet chilli, homemade aoli and tartare sauce.

OMG i think im turning into a food blog! well well i guess i know i will be doing something i LOVE.

so cheers everyone and lets hope i remember to take photos before i eat. hahah!!!

hi everyone! this is bella fresh off the plane from sydney. she was very shy at first and a bit sleepy, but she soon found her legs and started bouncing around like a regular puppy.
bella tucked into her bed on her first nite

hope you all enjoy! i will try to keep the doggy fotos to a minimum - because this blog is supposed to be all about moi. but unfortunately at this moment in time i am completely surrounded by dogs, and who can resist an adorable puppy? i know i cant!
