I crave the strangest things.
Today, being the second last day of the last holiday I'll ever get till the third week of November, mum cajoled me into not studying geography and just taking a break (though I have to admit, I sneaked a few pages on Settlement studies and plan to do so again tonight)
So I've been spending my afternoon reading, which is really quite a pleasure. I used to love to read a lot, especially teenage fictions and classics. While I was getting engrossed into Melody Carlson's 'Fool's Gold', despite the
unbelievably hot and sunny weather we have here in Singapore, I was craving a nice hot cup of milo.
Why? The reason being that first I was craving something
"chocolaty", and second because I like the warm feeling that seems to travel down your throat when you drink something hot or very warm.
Sadly though, I cannot make milo as lovely as Aida does it. She told me two spoonfulls of milo powder, no sugar. I put in 3 1/2 spoonfulls... and it still didn't taste quite as
"chocolaty" as I hoped it would be.
