Bon soir! Definitely a good evening!
Wow. Although this is not my first blog post, it is something worth celebrating about on a Sunday evening - the birth of the blog of yours truly. Why? Because blogging at this hour is better than having me study about financial derivatives which I am not exactly focusing on...
So, what to blog about?
Well, the question that I asked myself earlier came to a pretty obvious conclusion: my own personal interests, (especially my love for house decor), food, comments about current events, good tv dramas, books, and the list goes on. To narrow it down, just a little sharing about my daily life encounters.
And as to questions about the name...
I absolutely adore pastries. Any form, any kind...although I can be quite picky (so technically not any kind...just most hehe). So, to get to the point, a friend/co-worker once called me "the cookie connoisseur" for a while because I always had a knack for determining whether cookies were fabulous or not...and that stuck till now. Because we both love desserts (as do everyone), she would always ask me for my comments about the different kinds of pastries that were delivered to our office once in a while to see if it does taste as good as it looks. Please don't get me wrong though, I am not any good at baking or is any some sort of world-famous cookie taster....but I modestly admit that my taste buds do help me with food tasting quite a bit around the office for that matter (haha).
to keep it simple:
The birth of this blog will hopefully provide bloggers and readers a place to read stories, enjoy food recommendations, appreciate home decor, and share a bit of your own similar findings/events that take place in your life.
Be sure to check back soon for more!
Yours truly,
la Chic Connoisseur
A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of meeting some old friends for an annual dine-out experience downtown.
The nice little restaurant is located somewhere near Stanley Park, in the beautiful city of downtown Vancouver for those of you who are curious (hehe it's an Italian Restaurant). Although service was not the best, the food totally compensated for it and it was truly enjoyable.
