	Nutella Madeleines by Li Madeleines! Whenever I hear them mentioned I automatically think of Proust and his infamous madeleine-memory passage in Swann's Way. Please don't tell me I'm the only literature geek here.Whenever I return to Hong Kong (or, really, anywhere) I usually come back with some new baking knickknack or the other. This time was no different…	1 vote 430 views
	Candied Sesame Walnuts & Snapshots of my Hometown by Li It's been a while (again)! But I have a better excuse this time; I've been away to my hometown Hong Kong (again) over my uni break and in going to the opposite hemisphere I left my blogging duties behind (yes, again). It isn't that I haven't been baking, either - I made a total of three cakes in three weeks of which I only took photos…	1 vote 393 views
	Pecan Tassies by Li I have an attention span problem, particularly when it comes to baking. I can't seem to remake a recipe twice most of the time (there are, of course, exceptions). Once I make a recipe, I taste it, I photograph it, I share it, and then I store it away and move on past it to the next recipe. I can get irritated if I have to remake a…	1 vote 354 views
	Orange Ginger Marmalade Crostata {Daring Bakers} by Li There's been this little monster of guilt gnawing away at that all-things-baking-related part of my mind telling me that I've been failing miserably at completing my role as part of the Daring Bakers. It wasn't until I looked back on my posts that I realized I'd missed the last three challenges. Uh, whoops. So I went and gathered…	1 vote 601 views
	Kitchen Sink Granola by Li Hello, hello, hello! I have neglected my blogging duties for a while due to exams, which turned me into a hermit for two weeks. But exams are over and that means the blogging begins again!I'm sharing with you today my go-to granola recipe. I've been on a granola frenzy lately and for the past month there's literally been homemade…	1 vote 361 views
	Yogurt Pot Cake by Li It's starting to get cold here in Sydney. Cold and wet, and then cold and sunny. It poured with rain for half of yesterday before the sky decided to somewhat reluctantly let the sun come through. Literally hot and cold. I hate it.There are two things to do on a rainy day. 1) Watch TV and 2) make a cake. If you're anything like me then…	1 vote 250 views
	Coconut Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies by Li It occurred to me as I was looking through my previous posts that I haven't posted a cookie recipe for a month. One whole month. This might be a record.I was left with a jar of half finished coconut oil when I made the raw cheesecake in my last post, so that left me with half a jar and over a dozen recipes that I had favorited a while…	1 vote 227 views
	Raw Cheesecake by Li I have never understood this whole 'raw foods' trend. Suddenly everything's being converted into what is essentially its 'healthified' version - vegan, gluten free, sugar free and raw. It's been everywhere lately in the form of cookies, bars and even brownies. And while a part of me thinks it's great to focus on using natural, pure…	1 vote 328 views
	Jaffa Muffins by Li I don't know about you, but I love discovering new kinds of food through books. Literature has a way of making you look at food differently. In the particular case of jaffa cakes, I discovered their existence when I was about eleven through a book I was reading at the time which unfortunately I can't remember the name of - the…	1 vote 296 views
	Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread by Li Afternoon tea is a tradition that's been ingrained in me since primary school. At least one afternoon each week, my mother would pick me up and we would go to McDonald's for a teatime treat of french fries, cokes and cheeseburgers (the stuff every kid dreams of). I'm not even kidding; I visited Maccas so often as a kid I managed to…	1 vote 323 views
