I can't believe it's almost the end of May! Just where has the time gone!?!
I should be busy packing packing packing for our move next weekend.. but instead, I'm mooching on the couch surrounded by a mountain of tissues... because I'm sick sick sick.... and let me tell you, I'm the biggest sook when I'm sick!
I blame my sickness on my plane ride! I was fine when I left Taiwan... I was fine for my 10 hour layover in Hong Kong where I got to catch up with two girls I went to high school with.. makes you feel old when you can say you've not seen someone in over a decade!! But my voice had disappeared by the time I arrived in Heathrow... luckily I managed to escape the airport in the space of half an hour with passport stamped and luggage in tow!

Our first stop was afternoon tea on the 102th floor of the Ritz Carlton. |
I was also preoccupied playing with the momster's new blender. She bought the local equivalent of a Vitamix and it's TOTALLY made me want one of my own.. I mean I've wanted one for a long time.. but now I REALLY REALLY want one!

I even made the batter for this Chocolate Earl Grey cake in the blender! Don't mind that the momster attacked it with her hands! Hence why there is a weird chunk missing from the corner! SAVAGE!! |
A friend of the momster's also introduced us to a fantastic Japanese restaurant in Taipei.. where I ate what is quite possibly THE BEST sashimi and nigiri I've had IN MY LIFE! Seriously... it was so good, we went back again the next week.

The shrimp heads were still moving when this arrived at our table. The shrimp was so fresh and sweet.. it was delectable! |
