Today is unbelievably exciting. Two great news in a day is certainly a good reason to celebrate, though I haven't a slightest idea where and how I will celebrate :) The above photo of fig and mascarpone represents how "calm" my heart right now.
The first news is quite predictable. The fall issue of
Zupan's magazine,
Indulge, is out in Zupan's stores and online today. What surprised me was that they put my pear-ginger charlotte on the cover of the magazine. As soon as I woke up, I went online, and logged on Zupan's website. I gasped once I saw the photo; hmm...my editor didn't tell me beforehand :) But I am relieved that the photo looks great as the cover and looking inside the magazine, I'm very pleased of the contents. Really solid editorial theme and photos throughout the issue. Please visit
Indulge online or go to Zupan's store for the hard copy, you'll find inspiring fall season recipes.
The second news is a shocker. Truly, I didn't expect this to come into my inbox in the afternoon. I think my heart skipped a beat when I read the email :) Foodista chose my
Green Tea-Chocolate Steamed Cupcakes to be in their
The Foodista Best of Food Blogs Cookbook! Though honestly, before the email reached me, I kept checking Foodista's website, trying to found out if they've announced the 100 winners yet. Call me vain, but I'm so happy beyond belief, giddy like a 16-year old getting her new driver's license. I'm thankful to Sheri Wetherell who's been patient with me and by emailing me back and forth in regards to the instructions. The book will be out in October 19, 2010 and it can be pre-order through Amazon by clicking
