Where Should I Put My Books?


If you love reading (and collecting books) like I do, then there must be at least a time when you just don't know where to put your books.

I often felt it - usually after an impulsively book shopping.

My room is not that big enough to be stocked with piles and piles of books. Or their bookcases. And that, sometimes, shelves and bookcases are just either to plain or too much to be seen.

Aren't they?

Apple Pastry, Anyone?

Yummy!

This apple pastry was the best that I have since, um... 10 years ago? Yes, it's quite difficult to find the perfect apple pie (or pastry) around here. They are always too sweet.

A Slice of Lava Cake

Yummy!


A cup of tea in the afternoon? Well, I already had one this morning.

So I chose to bake six small lava cakes to complete my day. Six chocolate cakes with melting chocolate inside it. Yummy.

But this morning, instead of thinking about another beach house, I tried looking for a different thing: a mountain cabin.

Bedroom Project: When I Fell in Love

My favorite spot...
My first revamping project was to paint my book shelves, from cheesy brown to casual white. Another cheesy brown closet was also painted white.

I was amazed with the effect. The similar tone color between the furniture and the wall definitely made my room felt bigger, and brighter. And yes, white is the easiest pick since I am a rookie.
