Lions and tigers and custard buns, oh my!

I have been introduced to a new food stuff. Fair enough, this introduction occurred about a year ago, but after much time apart, the forces of the universe have collided and I have re-established the acquaintance. That's right, dear reader. The custard bun has returned!

The yummy nummy Chinese custard bun has again made its way into my culinary experience. After experiencing the phenomena at Yum Cha (an experience in itself... little plates of fried goodness - and chicken feet. Who eats chicken feet? Is there even any meat on them? In which case, who eats bone? Can you even eat bone? Questions for the ages indeed). Anyway, after experiencing them, I fell a little bit in love, but promptly forgot about their sweet goodness. Until the other weekend at the markets.

There is a little shop that sells lots of different kinds of chinese buns and the custard one figures prominantly! So, I purchased one. My wordy, it was as good as I remembered! Crunchy custard on the top, improbably yellow custard inside, surrounded by the softest, sweetest bun eva. Awesome fun dessert times! I would def recommend to all you bun lovers out there. So now I am hooked on the things and must purchase every time I am at the markets. I wonder if London will have anything to compare... I'm sure Vanessa has already done the recon for me...

In other news, Torchwood has arrived on Oz tv. While the first episode was not all that and a bag of chips, Ep 2 has restored my faith in Russell T Davies (not that I really lost it, but I was a bit worried for a moment there). It's a weird blend of Doctor Who and sexromp and procedural and sexy John Barrowman. Yet another reason to stalk... I mean, visit Cardiff.
Still, fun times with the television shows. You gotta love it when you are excited about watching something. The download revolution is quickly changing how we are watching television, so it's nice to find something that, while I'd love to have all the episodes to watch all at once, I am hanging out every week to watch and find out what is happening! Plus, I KNOW that it hasn't been cancelled and, in fact, has been given a second season. Maybe my curse is finally broken! Or, American TV execs are the devil's spawn and don't know what they are doing. Either or.

The best lunch break eva!

So, what do you do when your shoulders are killing you and you have an hour to kill? Wander past the Chinese massage store and pop in for a quick rub! I've passed by a little hole in the wall masseur for about six months now and today, I decided to take the plunge. My wordy lordy, am I ever glad I did! I actually feel mostly relaxed, instead of ready-to-tear-peoples-eyes-out tense (I'm a violent child, I admit it). I had my shoulders and neck massaged and it was feeling pretty darn good. PLUS, I have a sneaking suspicion it can all be claimed back on my health insurance. Bwahahahahaha!

I am such an evil genius.

And I've just realised how extremely boring this post is. My wordy, I am almost putting myself to sleep... Um, how can I make it more interesting?? Oh wait, I don't have to worry. By the time you read this, I'll be out of the country and won't hear your groans of "what trite crap has she written now?" Aha! Back to the bwahahhahahahaha!
