Piggyroll (Dinner Roll Recipe)

I decided to make some dinner rolls tonight because I haven't made them in a while. :p
What do you mean that doesn't look like a dinner roll? :P
HAHAHHAHAHAHHAAH!

Okay okay. I made one that's supposed to look like a piggy. :p

Say hello to Mr. Piggy Roll!
I did make regular-looking ones though (just in case you were wondering).
Here... Proof!
 Mr. Piggy Roll is just an experiment. I just wanted to know how much of the detail will be left after baking him.
I remember seeing a bear-shaped bread at Boudin and it looked soooo adorable! :P

So I stuffed Mr. Piggy Roll on to the baking sheet...
He was feeling a bit shy and distant from the other rolls.
Mr. Piggy was baked for 12 minutes...
All nice and buttered up!
HAHAHHAHAHA! I was so surprised to see that most of the details were still there. :P

I think I might shape ALL of my dinner rolls this way from now on! :P

I used this dinner roll recipe just in case you wanted to make your own. Try it! Its one of the best recipes I've tried.
So deliciously fluffy and flavorful.
 (Sorry about the picture quality... I used my phone since it was the closest thing to me while I was baking :P)

My Mom's My Superhero

I always love shopping with my mom. :)
I got to do that a few weekends ago. O_o
This was when MAC cosmetics was promoting their Wonder Woman Collection.
To get into the theme, I turned us into a comic!
 I followed this tutorial to get this comic book effect just in case you were curious.

Heehee... mom getting ready for her make-over:

This event was a pretty popular one. A lot of people were getting makeovers and here's a little bonus pic of the models with... um.. great looking "backs". O_o

Wana see what we got?

1. MAC Wonder woman Eyeshadow x4 DEFIANCE




2. MAC Wonder Woman Lipstick HEROINE



3. MAC Wonder Woman Powder Blush ~Mighty Aphrodite~



The graphics on the boxes looked pretty awesome.
Mom laughed at the actual product packaging. She thought they looked like toys because they were plastic-looking (lipstick and blush). I thought it was not bad. Nice and bright. The eyeshadow packaging looked more sturdy. :) Maybe its made out of some sort of metal? O_o

We also bought other stuff but I'll post them another time. :P
My OOTD


Did you guys buy anything from MAC's Wonder Woman Spring Collection 2011? Please share! :)

Car Show in Pacific Grove

I promised to show you pictures of places I went to this summer but there are so many so this will only be the first part of the pictures I want to share... :) I don't know very much about cars and I'm sorry I can't tell you much about them but if you are interested in cars (especially mini classic ones) and you like looking at pictures of them... you might like this post.
We went to Pacific Grove and we got to see a car show when we visited in August.
heehee.. one of the cars had this fake seagull standing on a surfboard on top ('beach' theme)
Here's the picture of the whole car just in case you were curious...

 The car show had tons of cars and so I compiled some of them here for you to see...

You should see how some of these car opened! The bubble shaped looking car on the middle right side of this collage opened up to the side!
All of these tiny cars looked like they were in pristine condition! I wonder how much the owners have spent on these little cars...

I spotted a few birds on top of a tall building in that area... I'm pretty impressed that my camera could zoom in that far...
Its funny because a lot of people go there to admire and take lots of pictures of the cars but I somehow had more pictures of pets than cars. O_o I was amused to see a lot of people bringing their pets along to the car show. :)

Awwwwwwwww... doesn't it look so cute? :3
Inside this tiny car was a tiny dog!
Those drinks used for decoration are fake by the way... :P
Awwww isn't she adorable??? :P
Look! she has cute bows in her hair! :P Oh so fashionable!
I got to see a lot of birds too for some reason. O_o
They were quite cute. They knew how to say a few things like "I love you" and stuff like that. :3

He had an itch on his back. :P

My favorite... the shy quiet one.
I didn't take very many pictures of me... :P I took more pictures of my family but they may want a bit of privacy. :)
This post was supposed to be about the car show so sorry for focusing on the dogs and birds more. :P I guess I like to look at animals more than cars! :P
