My New Job... A Tester, A Taster!!

Something to confess... a bad habit I adopted since I got back from KL... all thanks or no thanks to Ikea which led me to this temptation. Now each night while blogging or watching tv, I have this tendency to munch these biscuits which I bought at the entrance of Ikea...

Perhaps many of you know about these biscuits or even have tasted them... but how come u all never advertise about it, huh????? They are so superbly nice... (maybe a bit exaggerating la... hahaa...) but really la, to me, I love biting them, munching them, tasting the cappuccino flavor... even the Ballerina was fantastic... sigh.. I should have bought more and keep..

Ipoh doesn't have Ikea la... so.... (hope u all can get my hint? next time if u happen to visit me, u know what to bring, ok?) lol.. real wai sik por I m!!


it cost RM4.90


cute flowery biscuits..
I think if I dont control myself,
I can finish the one whole box in a day!


this also same price..


I love the taste... made in Sweden.. no wonder...

Oh, by the way, talking about new food, I might as well add this too.. I got the chance to try this
Fettucine Aglio Olio With Mini Plum Red Tomato which was specially done by Elin. I am really blessed to know her and now I have the privilege to be her "taster" and "tester" in all her baking or cooking... (hehehe...please envy me! lol..) She knows I love to try new food and now I have the chance to do so... (one setback though, in no time, u will see a plumper, fatter ME!! )


my girl and I had this for our dinner..

You will not regret going to her blogspot, I tell u... she is a *piggie* and she cooks for her young piggies and now including an old piggie like me too!! lol...

psst... tomorrow I will be tasting her mango cake... yehhhhh!!!!
