Minilovebites Cupcake & Bake

Me and my office mate Shakira (not her real name but she does kinda look like Shakira) have been searching for the best cupcake in Jakarta for awhile now. I actually already have a winner in mind: it was a freebie cupcake my other office mate bought for everyone on her birthday. UGH THAT WAS “THE” CUPCAKE. ULTIMATE. SO FREAKING GOOD. She was vague about where she bought it, I think she said it was from a bakery inside Kem Chicks Pacific Place. Sorry for not taking picture of it because I was kinda absent-minded when it arrived at my desk. I was like “uh watisdis… ok let’s have a bite… DAMN WTF IS THIS WHY SO DELISHUS!” It was gooey, chocolatey, and super moist with perfect chocolate-buttercream topping. Unfortunately I haven’t had the chance to go to PP (DAMN YOU CAR FREE DAY, GO DIE) to have another bite.

So last week when Shakira asked me if I wanted to order cupcakes together, I was like HECK YEA. She found this cute little cupcake webstore, Minilovebites from her friend. In their website they put up an impressive menu of cupcakes from the traditional to the more avant-garde selections. Their other plus point is that THEY DELIVER. You guys can also pick up your delivery if you like to torture yourselves with Jakarta’s traffic.

For our maiden delivery we ordered the traditional flavors: half dozen (100 K + 15 K delivery charge) of red velvet and double chocolate cupcakes.

When the box arrived I was restraining myself from jumping up and down. Pity about the yellow box though. I hate yellow. But I guess it’s cute for people who doesn’t abhor yellow.

Pretty cupcake pictures after the jump!

More of Real Madrid’s drunken celebration this season pleeeeeeeeeaseeeee

After consulting my crystal ball (and by “crystal ball” I mean my full belly that is currently causing my blood sugar to spike), I hereby present my prediction grid for 2011/2012 end results (top 4) for Bundesliga, English Premier League, and La Liga.

As much as I want to try my luck in predicting the outcome of Serie A, Juventus (my first amore) is currently sucking hard and I can’t bring myself to watch any of their games. Sorry Del Piero et.al. Eh… has Del Piero retired yet? ~~~Goodbye my looove…

Full unparalleled farsightedness after the cut…

BEHOLD: My #1 noodle of the moment.

I freaking love this noodle. Obviously the naming of the size choices is a bit sexist (LARGE = “Porsi cowok–boys’ portion “; MEDIUM = “porsi cewek –girls’ portion”) but hey no1curr if your noodle is this good. I feel bad for boys who happen to have small appetite and  get stuck ordering the girly-portion out of embarrassment though, because the boys’ portion is HUGE.

Eaton – Kelapa Gading

I’ve been coming in to Eaton Kelapa Gading almost every weekend this past month. The place itself is not that special or overly comfortable, but it’s sufficient. It’s 100% indoors with AC so I can safely plug my laptop and enjoy their free wi-fi. The most important thing is that I won’t be disturbed by persistent buskers (pengamen) or middle-aged ibu-ibu selling snacks with beggy-face (“Ci, bantuin saya lah, beli ya? ya? ya? ya? ya?”) who frequent rukos in Kelapa Gading Boulevard. The place is always packed with large groups of family every lunch time, and sometimes I feel bad for dominating a whole section by myself, but heeeeyyyy *demi download Top Shot*.

Pig. Sea Urchin. Rabid Babboon.

So there’s this one coworker (let’s call him X) who dished about his girlfriend problem to my other friend (let’s call him Y) who is a blabbermouth and told me things that he shouldn’t have. X made me think that the douchebaggery of dudes is more limitless than I previously thought.

X had a girlfriend up to about a week ago. Up to a week ago, I thought that X and his girlfriend were still an item, UNTIL…

I caught him with another girl, WHO IS ALSO MY COWORKER, this Saturday; walking in the mall with his arms around her; which tells me that prior to breaking up with his girlfriend, he already set up a “replacement” plan to fall on smoothly. Fucking spotted-dick bastard fuck.

Geezus Christo.

I may not get boys at all, but one thing I learned from X is that there is no “mourning” period from one girl to the next.
Even I who obviously is not attracted to him at all and definitely not his ex-girlfriend, feel so… violated and angry. If I were his ex I would be fucking pissed-off. I don’t know his ex and she might be an evil she-witch that made his life miserable, but wow I feel so sorry for her. Maybe this is girl-code sympathy or something. Couldn’t he at least pretend to be sad or mopey for a period of time before he gets his paws on another girl in public?

I swear, I can’t with all of this.

Why can’t I be a lesbian. Why do I like boys.
