Pie is 3.14 and more

yumI AM AComment

It's clearly pie weather. Brr.... and with the new pie emoji we simply couldn't resist the temptation of not doing a blog post on pie.

Via Instagram we came across these beautiful pie designs via instagram account LokoKitchen. It's beautifully in many ways, the lines, the stacking, the colours, the geometrics to a certain extent that remind of us of spirographs. Definitely more yum and fun than what a normal 3.14 pie circle will have. Delish! Fancy some pie?

Cardboard British Biscuits

paper, yum, designI AM AComment

Biscuits are always on our minds, especially during elevenses, when biscuits are dunked in a hot drink. Mark O'Brien a cardboard craftsman based in Manchester crafts amazing objects out of cardboard as props for theatres, shop displays etc. The objects he has created included shoes, robots, post boxes. Our favourite, however, are definitely these signature British biscuits including Custard Cream, Pink Wafer, Digestive, Party Ring, Bourbon cream - not dunkable but definitely adorable.

All Day Breakfast

design, yumI AM AComment

Lazy Autumn Sunday has us craving for warm cooked brunch. We love discovering brunch places on a weekend enjoying breakfast and reading the papers. This brings us back fond memories in Tokyo 🇯🇵 when we head to “World Breakfast All Day” in Shibuya, Tokyo not far from Omotesandō, 表参道.

This little cute spot not only is the decor delectable. The shelfie, displays of packaging, menu and graphics are fun, eclectic, full of retro vibes and nostalgias; featuring breakfasts from different parts of the world. It’s a feast for the belly and eyes. We always have a soft spot for a fryup, the smell of bacon and eggs.

We think the term “All Day Breakfast” is greatly apt as we can really have breakfast food all day! 😋🍳🥓🍞☕️.

PS. If you are a paper crafts lover, they have published a book on origami breakfasts too 🙋🏻‍♀️❤️📔✂️

British Chocolate Bars Cross Section

yumI AM AComment

Cross sections of some of our favourite chocolate bars including a Snicker, a Crunchie, a Twix and a Flake.

As Charles M. Schulz, creator of Peanuts once said “All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.” 

Here's our favourite little bits of chocolate snapped in photo format. In the event we run out, having a photo of our favourite chocolate bar, hopefully, help curb the cravings.
