Back at my college year. I like went to this street food vendor that sold yellow rice for brekky. But since I never had rice for my brekky, and I don't like yellow rice, so I  ordered something else in this street food vendor. 

Well, not trying to be so western back in that day. But I couldn't eat a "normal" breakfast back in Indonesia is because since I was a kid, my mother never made us (my brother and I) a proper Indonesian brekky, or just a toast for breakky. Can't be bothered I guess. 

Anyway,

So the other menu I ordered is this Lontong sayur or Rice cake with vegetables stew with coconut milk. Unlike any other food with coconut milk, this food is so refreshing and the coconut milk is so light. 

Since I couldn't make the rice cake in Indonesian way, I made it with rice cooker. Much more easier to be honest. 

And here you go, the recipe for one of my nostalgic food. 

It's a little too long not to buy a Korean cosmetics. Korean beauty care, yes, but not cosmetics. So I decided to bought this April Skin Magic Snow Cushion, Black.

Why I choose this. Well, beside want to buy Korean cosmetics, I also want to have BB cream again. After struggles with the 10 step beauty care, I think I need faster time to do my make up.

Plus the foundation I wore not too good to me, and all the steps for beauty routine and make up already took lots of times.

After a month of waiting, finally the product arrived, let us see what the product looks.

Packaging

The number of your color choice at the top of the package

At the top of the box, you could see the number. That is the color number that I choose. This product have three different color to choose. 21 for Light Beige, 22 for Pink Beige, and 23 for Natural Beige.

Since I bought it at YesStyle, the store itself giving this barcode stamp. I think it's just their way for checking their products. 

At one side of the box, you could see the written (in gold color) about how to use the products, and every important things that you should know about storing this products. All are written in Korean and English languages.

At the other side, you could see another Korean and English language note. And that is the ingredients of this product. 

Another Korean and English language at the back of the box. But most of it is written in Korean language. But I guess it's just the another information about the product.

The genuine product's stamp also stamp at the back, and I guess if you wan to scan the barcode, you could see the information about the product you buy.

Coverage

Here are the look when you open the seal. The cushion is really have a pore, to absorb the foundation. And all you have to do just a gentle press at the cushion and the liquid foundation will come up.

Since the foundation is really liquid, you really have to be gentle to press it. Because you don't want to waste it, right.

Since it spread all over the cushion, so I guess press it with the puff is the better way. And since the puff is covered by the material that can absorb the foundation fast and it apply really good at your skin, without leaving lots of leftover in it.


Since I just put a thin layer of this cushion at my face, I think it not really cover your uneven tone skin, but it cover you enough. Like my pore, and other.


Here are the result from the product in my face. Just wearing this product, then using other cosmetics, like eyebrow, eyeliner, and lipstick. I know it not perfectly cover all the fine line, since it just a thin layer. But I am satisfied.

Here the result from five hours latter. Still on point, and still cover up. And of course still dewy look. No need to touch up.


And this after 8 hours. Still there, and I am really didn't want to wipe it. LOL.

I Think

Where to Buy

This week Indonesian food actually I want to make something "simple". Yes, simple as in Indonesian way of cooking meal. Apparently, it is not as simple as it seems. LOL.

Why I want to make a simple Indonesian meal, because I want to show my boyfriend that in Indonesia, this kind of food is something normal in Indonesian waroong (street food vendor). 

I did this because when we are going to Indonesia, we don't have to eat at the expensive restaurant, or not making my mother feeling uneasy because she have to cook something different from the way she use to cook.

Who knows, when we are going to Indonesia, My boyfriend can enjoy eating at the famous Malioboro street food.

Luckily my boyfriend is not a picky eater, he will eat everything that served in front of him. It makes me happy, because he always say my cooking is delicious. Or perhaps maybe he don't want me to feel sad.

This week, I made fried chicken with galangal. I also fried the galangal, and spread with the fried chicken. And I served it with nasi uduk (rice that cook with coconut milk), omelet, fried tempeh and tofu, fresh vegetables and sambel bawang (garlic sambal).

In this post, I want to share my experience bought Korean cosmetics online. Why online? Because I feel it is difficult to find Korean cosmetics at Australia. 

Some of Korean cosmetics brand also open their store in here, but sadly I am not using that brand (yet). Because it is to expensive? Perhaps, but mostly because I am not using only one brand. 

I was a Korean cosmetic user, back in Indonesia. But since move to Australia I still can't find the store for brand that I use, mostly I mix the brand between Korean and also Australian. 

So, when I want to buy a Korean cosmetics, I choose this YesStyle website. And this post is about my second order in this website. 

Mostly because I am really careful choosing an online shop. Just because everything is cheap, doesn't mean it is trusted.

Then why I trust YesStyle?

It is because after so many times I read and open so much online shop for korean cosmetics, I think this YesStyle is the perfect one to be my choose.

After I read their about me and also the completeness of its products. And for me, if one online shope have their own website and putting an active link, and also makes its customers easy to reach them, I could say it is trusted.

And also, in this website, their not just only sells Korean cosmetics, but also from Japan and Taiwan.

I sometimes afraid that I probably get scammed. A fake website or not really good online shop. It could makes us really loss lots of money right. But for me, to know the online shop is real or not (especially internationally) is by keep watching its website for a couple months, and also find out how easy they give their contact.

Beside you also need to open every links in their website, this also part of trust. For me if every links in their website is easy to open and update, it is also one of the trusted website.

Personally, I ordered my first order in YesStyle around five months after I found them. Beside saving money, I also have to do all those things before. LOL.

Yes, this post is about my second order in YesStyle. My first order were Nature Republic Shooting & Moisture Aloe Vera that become huge hits in the world. Plus sleeping cream moisturiser from Etude House and the Sailor Moon lipbalm.

My second order this time is simply because I ran out my Nature Republic. Don't know why it just easily run out. Maybe because I really like to wear it, and it really help my dry skin, by the way. 

And also, if you shop in the certain amount, you can get free standard shipping. Since I stay in Australia, so they give me free standard shipping if I get AU$50 order.

And, sometimes they give me a bonus product too.

For my second order, I bought three products, and get free shipping again. LOL.

• Nature Republic Shooting & Moisture Aloe Vera 92% Shooting Gel 

Stock

this product said "In Stock" means it can be ship after we finish our payment

this product said Usually ship within 7 - 14 days means the product is not in stock, and they have to ask the product from their supplier to send it to them usually around 7 - 14 days, then send it to us

I suggest to look at the information really really clear. Because not all the products are ready or like mine. Some of them even have shorter period, or longer.

If there are some people who don't know, we have Indonesian food day every week. Which is every Sunday. So, each Sunday (if we don't have any event to attend) I made Indonesian food for my boyfriend and I. 

Each time I made Indonesian food, I make sure that every meal is fit my boyfriend's taste. What I mean is some Indonesian food is really spicy or spicy enough to make your stomach "in war".

Even nowadays my boyfriend's level of endurance for spicy food is getting better, but this week I didn't make something spicy. I made this chicken stew.

Back in my childhood time, this stew is one of my mother's favorite meal to cook. Well, mine to eat too. It rich of flavors and of course, it have my favorite meat all the time, chicken. 

And apparently, it is so easy to make, and the ingredients is not as much as I think. 

Don't you know the word "semur" is actually adapted from Dutch language "Smoor" which mean stew? I just know it, LOL.

Doesn't surprise me that some of Indonesian languages are adapted from Dutch language, because Dutch was part of Indonesian history for 350 years. Yes, you read it 350 years. A long time for a country to stay right. 

So, here it is the recipe:
