Second Winter @ Copenhagen 2010

It started to snow earlier than last year. It snowed the whole of last night. Upon walking out of my apartment, the ground was covered with snow. Beautiful....
While waiting for Tina, I managed to snap some photos around the neighbourhood.

We also took some photos as we walked to the office. Felt like we were travelling. Unfortunately, we were not. How nice if we were :p




Cute....the little statues were covered with snow.

A sinful weekend

So, it's back to my turn to bring dessert to the office. Some time ago, my colleagues attempted to inject some fun in the stressful working environment - we will have a little "game". Every Monday, 2 person need to bring dessert and others shall vote who the winner is after tasting them. The winner will then nominate the next 2 person to bring dessert the following week.

It's my turn tomorrow. At the same time, my colleague, Tina would also like to bring dessert for her team. A Tiramisu-lover, she wants to give the Italian dessert a try. We shopped for the ingredients on Saturday and on the very day itself, we experimented. The zabaliogne cream was not as thick as it should have been but it tasted superb.


Tina approved it. Proud ^_^
Today, we made the "real" one to bring to the office tomorrow. Of course, we spared some for ourselves. Hehehe. We managed to make 2 small bowls. Tina insisted to decorate them with strawberries. She was beaming and grinning from ear to ear while capturing the photo below. Cute...

Later in the night, Tina shared with me some cute pictures and I can't help falling in love with this cute little thing! Wish I could hold it in my arms....Oooppps,..it just made me feel sleepy, with the cosy blankets and all. Why Monday comes so quickly. Anyway, looking forward to Tuesday's dinner - hotpot! Yahoo....great for rainy and chilly weather ;)
Hope you all had a great weekend like I did. I had a scrumptious Korean BBQ dinner on Friday night and then splurged with the luxury of Mascarpone cream cheese on Saturday and Sunday - thanks to our Tiramisu experiments. Sinful, indeed.....but worthy! ;)

Denmark : Culture Night @ Copenhagen 15th October 2010

It's almost a month these pictures were taken and here I am shameless posting them after a huge procastination :p

Culture Night is an annual event in Copenhagen, when many museums and tourist attractions are opened till late night. With a pass, which you can buy at train stations, you are entitled to enter these attractions as you like and the transportations are free for the whole night (actually, till the wee hours of the following day). Nevertheless, you may only manage to go to a few places in that night since every where is crowded and there is long queue at all the tourists attractions.
Tina and I first went to the Spanish embassy to have some free Spanish snack. We, then went to the church which was nearby. Next, a concert hall, the Round Tower before heading towards the Christianborgslot to see the ice sculpture design.
We really had a great time though we were rather tired after that.















We were trying to capture the lady in angel costume. Yay! We finally made it. See the mischievous and triumphant look on my face? :p
"Drunk" looking people.
Took some time off to camwhore while waiting in queue to the Round Tower.
Some people speaking in Danish. Guessed he was talking about the Round Tower. Didn't catch anything he said =.=
Up in the Round Tower. It was pitch black and wwwwiiiiinnnnnndyyyyyy...Brrrrr....


Ice sculpture designs. Cool...



Love seat. The most popular sculpture of the night. We finally had our turn on the "Love Seat" after queuing.





Superman! Mmmm,..I mean superwoman :p
