Tea time, taro cake, and durian cake. I don’t want to drive an hour (30 mins each way) under 85-degree heat to buy moon cake, so this cake is the alternative to decrease my sweets craving

But I should stay on my diet plan so I reduced to a small size.
Half of the cake has gone while in preparation :biggrin: :lol: View attachment 4823985

Love the flowers in the presentation :) I didn't know it was moon cake season already!
 
Staying home is easier when I’m expecting deliveries. This strap arrived this morning.
I requested this Sangle Cavale Strap when I bought my Evie but was told they were sold out. I managed to find one (resale) online. I bought it to use crossbody. (It’s long worn as a shoulder bag...but I don't intend to wear it that way.)

However, if necessary, I can make it work by making a lose “knot” in the strap. I know it’s not the way it’s intended to be used, but I’m fine with it and it doesn’t show from the front:

Don't hate me, I love to cook when I am not in any project.:giggle:

That fried rice looks restaurant quality... Yum!
 
Yesterday, it was @tlamdang08’s shrimp and pineapple. Now, as I’m sitting here drinking my coffee, looking at this photo, I’m realizing I’m really ready to eat my own PBJ on H china.
I am guilty to post food porn here again and again, causing everyone’s weight gain rapidly. But I am so sorry to do it again.
I had this this morning:blush:
From Costco to my table
My favorite Dumplings and egg coffee For breakfast.
I will try to not consume anything after this until two pm.
My new Plan that I hope it will help.

Moon cakes season starting to appear at the supermarket soon, Mid- Autumn Festival of 2020 is on October 1.
I love to eat them at the beginning of the season. :blush:
Try as I may, I never acquired the taste for moon cakes :oh:. I used to dread my relatives handing me cake after cake. But if there was a sponge cake season, I’d gladly take all those pink bakery boxes tied with red strings. Boxes and boxes of them to have with my jasmine or green tea!
 
Since @tlamdang08 is relentless with her food porn, I am going to share some of my pandemic mistakes that caused me to be in my current girth.

Talking about sponge cake, it is a coincidence that I plan to bake one next week. I love plain sponge cake and haven’t bake in years. :biggrin:
