yumcha and cupcakes

meant to wake at 820 for my 9am class but it was dark when my alarm rang. and to me, dark = sleeping time so i silenced the buzzer and went back to bed :) woke proper at noon with sunlight streaming through my window and didn't feel in the least bit guilty. and to make the day even better, i got a text asking whether i was done for the week (would've been done at 10 if i'd rolled outta bed in time...) because a friend wanted to do coffee and cupcakes. two things i'd never say no to! better yet, when we did meet up, it was lunch time and having not had yumcha since leaving home, it was high time to get my fix of cantonese goodness. stuffed ourselves with bao, personal mountains of cheong fan, chicken feet and beef balls. yummy! and yumcha was strangely better at 2 degrees than it is in the tropics. well, can't compare with hong kong but pretty darn good this far north.

chased the yumcha feast with cupcakes instead of egg tarts (only available on sundays, boo!) and wasn't disappointed. last week, i decided S is a true friend for not showing me this cupcake store when it was open. cruel as it may sound, taken in context, we'd just had a massive japanese diinner and there was no way i could've had a cupcake binge without compromising my health in some way. but today we went round to make up for cupcakes denied last week. and because 1/2 and 1/2 make 2, we had 4!
