Seaking's Calamari Sticks Recipe



I love to order Calamari whenever we dine in an American Restaurant.  As much as we love the "crunch", the order is always "bitin" and we always wanted MORE!

As much as I love cooking, I'm always in a rush and will always prepare meals that are 30 minutes less!  With the work I do, the cooking in between MUST be easy, fun to do and the most important thing of all? DELICIOUS!

So whenever I shop for my weekly menu plan, I always have something in the fridge that is easy-to-do!  Just like the Seaking Calamari Sticks.  

Disclaimer: This pack was sent to me but I have been buying these way before they sent me!  Yes, you can check my video recipes on Recipes Highlight on Instagram.


Now let's start preparing Crunchy Calamari Sticks in 30 minutes time - or less!

Ingredients:

  • Seaking Calamari Sticks
  • 1 Egg
  • Bread Crumbs
  • All-Purpose Flour
  • Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Pepper 
  • Optional: Mayonnaise as dressing


Step 1:
Throw in Seaking Calamari Sticks in a bowl and add in All-Purpose Flour.  For 1 pack, I used approximately 4-5 tablespoons.

YADAH Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm Review



I lived and breathe Cleansing Oils ever since I learned about Shu Uemura!  Thank goodness for more alternative (and inexpensive brands) out there because I use them up so fast!

For a Beauty and Skincare enthusiast like myself who hoards skincare and makeup products I like, I actually ended up one fateful night without a cleansing oil!  I was in shocked because I usually have stocks!  I obviously didn't and I rummaged through items I got for review and found Yadah Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm which I used immediately without much expectation.

Now, I'm writing a full blog post about it, you kind a know what's next!

I FREAKIN' LOVE IT!

My Tiny Secret as a Multi-Tasking Mom!



NO, not a messy table!  *laughs*

I hope this overview shows you how much work I do on a daily basis.  Come, join my world!


After sending my son to school and workout, I go back home and answer emails!  Loads of them!  


I also schedule meetings and events in between creating curriculum for my makeup and skincare training jobs, send out proposals for clients and a whole lot of PR work.

And of course, I also do a lot of online shopping in this particular workplace because ... too busy to go out for shopping!  So if you wonder how I manage to do a lot of things, this is one tiny secret I'm sharingThere's no way I could get everything done without sites like Amazon!

#ImDreamingOf The Body Shop



Last Thursday, I attended the store relaunch of The Body Shop at SM Mall Of Asia.  The Body Shop is close to my heart for so many reasons ---

  • I started Beauty Blogging talking about The Body Shop products because their products are kind to my skin.
  • The brand supports advocacies I strongly believe in.
  • Their store has testers widely available for you to try and friendly staffs to assist you if you have problem.
And the store looks even better today!  



And this Holiday season is no exception!  With the Christmas filled goodies, all my 5 senses were dancing with joy during my SM MOA store visit.

It is indeed a Season for Special Edition Sets!  I am loving the Rich Plum series!



Check out the price list of these Christmas Stuffers!

Baby Bright Mineral Matte Lip Paint Review


Try to search for Baby Bright online, you'll find a lot of articles but mostly in Thai.

This brand has been around for years!  I've seen this in most of my trips in Bangkok but wondered why they aren't locally available!  Well, I am WRONG!  These are actually available in the local scene --- at Watsons Stores in particular!
