howdy hi!
I am off to Phuket for the rest of the week! My brother’s already there and he reported back that it’s crazy hot! So I’m gonna come home a brown cow.
I’m armed with three cameras and am pretty sure that’s a ton of beauty to see and snap of. (Phara, I should be able to finish up the camera once I get back!) In the meantime, I leave you guys with some photos from December and early January.

There was one week in December where I pretty much cooked every meal for lunch and dinner. These were some of the food I made and took photos of. You can go ahead and click on the photos to find out what it is and what recipe I followed.
About the long silence on the blog, it was a combination of being busy being stale being boring being everywhere else but here. But I think all those feelings are disappearing and I’m gonna be posting more frequently from now. Another thing is, I passed my motorcycle traffic police test and got my license about two weeks ago!! Yeahhhh but my vespa only comes in March. Which really sucks. But it’s what I’ve always wanted and what I’ll be riding for some years so I gotta deal with waiting for my motorbike in the colour I want.
Anyway I hope you like the new look for the blog too! Bigger and brighter.
At Skinny Pizza
We had the mozzarella+arugula+meat bolognese pizza and the squid ink paella. Pizza was delicious (can’t go wrong with that combination) tho the biscuit-thin crust wasn’t to my liking. Not much to say about the paella but it’s my fault for ordering a rice dish at a pizza place right?
I’ve been absent, so very absent! And that’s because I’ve been taking motorbike lessons and have been spending most of my time at the school. Right now, it’s a lot of waiting for test dates so I really am suffering from not being able to ride everyday! It actually hurts and leaves me feeling very lost and empty. Haha, can you believe that? So while riding slows down to first gear, I’m gonna try and catch up with everything else.

At Papa Palheta
hello!
Some shots taken with my Nikon FM10 and as you can see, my focusing is severely off in some of them. Manual focus, we need to get along better. The shutter goes off pretty loudly too and I do get embarrassed by it if we are at some place quiet!
I’m due for a haircut today, in other things.
Hi! I’m Melly. I share photos of my life & my handcrafted goods here. I live in Singapore & currently shooting with an Olympus Pen-F.
