    Penne pasta with tuna and grilled veggies

    At this point, it might be known that I really really like pumpkin. We had rice for dinner yesterday, and the day before, and I got so tired after a Zoom hangout with my colleagues (today is a full-meetings day.) I tried to come up with some quick and easy recipe, and as tempting as… Continue reading »

    Exercising is a go!

    With the risk of jinxing things (because I tend to jinx stuffs whenever I talked about it,) I’m pretty proud to say that I’m starting doing exercise since early June.

The story opens with kecak… Continue reading »

    Morning drink

    Not a beer. And yes, Daft Punk forever. It’s a non-alcoholic malt drink with peach flavor. Also, it’s 10 AM ? I found myself liking the non-alcoholic counterparts due to taste. Alcohol is a refined taste, and it takes experience to fully enjoy it. For me, I still can’t get beyond the bitter taste or… Continue reading »
