Feeling Martha
Inspired by the Cupcake Queen (and her beautiful dog Layla), I jocked her recipe out and spent yesterday afternoon baking away. Boyyy she was right! These babies are SO SWEET not so sweet! The icing’s sweetness has reduced after 24 hours of fridge time. My brother YM’d me an a “MASARAP” comment a few minutes ago and it’s also a win at work!

July 28. The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf African Sunrise. MMMMM.
The oh so yummy tea that I’ve been (long) waiting for finally has an ETA here in Manila! *insert puppy eyes here*
This full bodied, red herbal infusion uses African honeybush exclusively grown on a farm between the mountains of Riversdal in the Western Cape of South Africa. Its exceptional fusion of flavor and aroma comes from the sharp tangy taste of orange peel, the characteristic sweet honey scent of honeybush flowers and beautiful mallow flowers.

How to insert cloves and a bay leaf into an onion
I’ve got to admit that when I read that from our mise en place last Thursday, I pulled a face equivalent to “&#$%$%^*. Armed with my “&#$%$%^* face, A, one of the student assistants came to the rescue and showed me exactly how it’s done:
PHEW. I thougt I’ll be slitting an onion, inserting a bay leaf, and forcing some cloves in! Seriously.
