i’m obsessed with this painting called tomato king and i’m even more obsessed with the man who drew it. his name is stuart dunkel and he is a classical oboeist and he also paints tiny little oil paintings of mice living their best lives. he looks like this.
They told you that you were going to lead an army, 10,000 men strong, they didn’t tell you it contained only a single trained soldier, and 9,999 support musicians.
If you went to a bar and the bartender was a mousegirl you could ask for a drink and she would balance it on her head and say "for you, it's on the mouse"
Bought these Salty Pandan Tau Sar Piah (香兰咸豆沙饼) at Moji Bakery within the Sembawang MRT building. They are selling 1 for S$1.20 or 3 for S$3 so naturally I went for the value for money option. :D It is made flatter yet wider in diameter than a traditional tau sar piah and filled with the usual salty and grainy mung bean paste plus a second layer of smooth and sweet pandan flavoured bean paste. On top of the golden brown crust, you get almond flakes to give it some crunch. When you bite into one, you get pastry flakes falling all over then you taste the saltiness, sweetness and fragrance dancing inside the mouth.
