What is in my Deco-Ben/Baking tool box ?

Greetings .
A lot of you had asked me about the tools i use to bake or make Deco-ben .
So today I've decided to update my blog and show you guys my collections of Deco-Ben tools .
Today I'm not going to go too far ,
just a sneak peek of what's inside of my tool box .
For those who are'nt familiar with Deco-ben ,
Deco-Ben stands for " Decorative Bento ( Lunch box ) " .
It's a kind of Lunch Box which the foods are arranged in decorative manner ,
some may come with some sort of theme like Hello Kitty , Rilakkuma etcetera.
Here's some picture so it's easier for you to understand .

- Nameless Excitement - 9th July 2018 -

As usual I'll start off by placing in a song here that mesmerised me today . Today , it's Somewhere Only We know covered by  Reneé Dominique . She possesses such soothing voice as those of sweet angels . Soft soothing songs calms me down a whole lot when I'm agitated or upset , that's why the songs I listen to are mostly slow and smooth . I guess by writing down how and what I feel is a good thing , at least I'm mindful of my own emotions and mental state . As I've mentioned in an earlier post a few days ago , I had bought myself a little notebook that I could carry around so that I could jot down any little thoughts and observations I've come across on a daily basis . That way I could be sure of my own thoughts throughout the day . Last night was a rough one , I had only had 2 hours of shut eye because I was experiencing waves after waves of different emotions in a marathon-like sequence . First was immense frustration , almost rage like emotions a...

I'm back . You guys know the drill . So here it is , the song I have been listening to way too much these few days . The beginning part is my absolute favorite : " What's the trick ? I wish I knew . I'm so done with thinking through all the things I could've been . And I know you wonder too. All it takes is that one look and I'll fall right back to you . You cross the line and it's time to say F you . What's the point of saying that ? When you know how I'll react . You think you can just take it back but shit just don't work like that . You're the drug that I'm addicted to and I want you so bad . Guess I'm stuck with you and that's that . "  This entry will be a short one , a very short one indeed . I just dropped by to jot down how contented I feel right now . Though not completely settled down like I wish to but still , I'm tremendously grateful for how I feel now as compared to how I was a few months b...

- No Longer - 24th July 2019 -

Greetings.  Look at me,  dropping in again.  The song for this entry is not one that's on my frequent playlist now,  but rather from months back.  May,  to be specific.  It's Older by Sasha Sloan .  As usual,  I'm a sucker for meaningful lyrics.  And this one,  truly hits right in the heart. Vacation   I've been enjoying my semester break so far.  I went to Sarawak with my dearest girl friends and also a little Melaka road trip with my good old study buddies.  I had tremendous fun exploring new places and trying new stuff.  But I guess what I enjoyed the most is the bond I have with these beautiful people that I now call my friends.  Rewinding back to January 2019,  I would never have thought that it was possible for me to make friends as close as what I have now and of course,  I am forever grateful for the love and support they've selflessly showered...
