12/16/09 11:15 pm - [info]dolus_specialis - ambiguity personified.



It was revolutionary, its beginning - without a sense of finality in sight, it was destined for beautiful things. When language dies and the soul begins to live, will life be breathed into thoughts left untangled? Silent and unassumed, words can't begin to encompass our feelings, they hang limp like an ill-fitted glove, yet we wear them anyway because they keep us warm. True, actions speak volumes, while words seldom reel in the echoes, but words can as easily crush us, ...or they can set our hearts free.

These are the words that bind us, these are the words that humanize us. So speak, tell them they mean the stars and galaxy to you, tell them you miss them, tell them you love them, tell them something, ..anything at all.

12/10/09 08:53 pm - [info]dolus_specialis - Mixed berry cheesecake.



( macro-shots, food porn this way. )

* * * * *

A blissful concoction of strawberries, blueberries, cream cheese and biscuits (for the base). The family loves this, so we tend to maneuver different renditions of the same dessert - toblerone cheesecake, lemon cheesecake, oreo cheesecake; though nothing beats the good old berry cheesecake! I made a small batch of oreo cheesecake with the same cream cheese mixture, but I didn't take a picture of that. Was too fatigued by the end of all the baking/stirring/whisking to bother -.- Those who bake would agree that cleaning up after the whole process is way more tiring than the actual baking itself. Scrubbing the dishes, wiping the tabletops, cleaning the Kenwood mixer... it's no easy feat. For the record, the one domestic chore I hate doing the most is washing the grease-laden plates. Number one bane of my existence, without a doubt.

12/10/09 08:20 pm - [info]dolus_specialis - American biscuits take two!



( plus a few more under the cut. )

The first time I made them, they were slightly harder than I'd like, so I made a second batch today. They came out so much better, very pleased with how airy the biscuits are, while retaining its crispy exterior. I haven't had the chance to gobble any yet, was so preoccupied with chores, one after another (it really never ends) but I'm definitely going to enjoy a biscuit or two tonight before heading to the airport to fetch the older brother!
