Feastful Weekend

I wouldn't have realized it if my friend didn't tell me. Aside from this blog, I also posted my food photos on Facebook, and she told me that I posted 5 different food photos this weekend. Quite a lot for a college student, I guess? This is called lontong sayur. It's an Indonesian dish my mum used to make for breakfast. I'm not particularly into lontong (= rice cake). I don't like the texture =( The reason why I started making lontong out of...

Thumbprint Cookie

The baking idiot is back to make some mess in her kitchen! I call it the "tower of poo". So this idiot basically melted the chocolate chips first and poured it into a sandwich bag and squeezed it out of the bag onto the cookie dough. I thought it would magically spreads down and make a good pool of chocolate filling, but no. For the cookie recipe, I used this. I modified it slightly. Instead of using almond extract, I used chocolate liquor....

Cinnamon Roll Bento

My friend kinda requested for a Hello Kitty or Cinnamon Roll bento. I didn't really have enough time, and she said Cinnamon Roll would be easier. So... here we go, Cinnamon Roll bento! They're really basic. The ingredients are: - rice - nori - ham (for the blush and the bento box lining) - meatballs - frozen mixed vegetables (the corn, carrot, green bean and green peas come in one package, so I had to separate them one by one) - cherry tomatoes If...

The reason is simple: it's easy, fast, and gives you bright...

High Carb, High Sugar...?

Monday night, and I was stressed. So I did my normal daily ritual to ward it off: make a bento. I haven't been going for groceries for weeks, so I don't really have that many ingredients left in the fridge. And I'm a little bored of using ham and bacon. Left: frankfurters, garlic fried rice, crab stick, english cucumber, green onionRight: sliced baumkuchen, nastar, fortune cookie, orange gummy, milk candy I tried a new "technique" of making...

Another randomness pulled

Boredom. Yes. Well, not exactly. I just need something that is not related to school work or research or science. And here we go again! I've been drafting this a long time ago, when I was waiting for my next class to start. I didn't think that I would actually draw it properly! Aand.. I'm thinking of changing my blog title. Luzzy Central sounds lame. I mean, no one knows who Luzzy is. So after much thinking, I'm going to change it to "AB-type...

FF XIII Bento

Finally! It's an idea that has been running in my mind for quite some time, and finally I've been able to make it! I've been experiencing a "bento block" (it's my own term; similar to a "writer's block", but it just means that I have no idea what to create). You see, I like to create things from scratch. Like... total scratch. I don't normally follow recipes, so what I create sometimes are haphazardous. This time,...
