For those of you who live in the UK like me (or elsewhere with similar situations), I wonder how life in the lockdown is going for you? It’s undoubtedly going to be a worrying time for many, but for me, I believe it’s important to still enjoy the small moments in life. Having not stepped out the house for most of the past days, my social communications with people have reduced to via social media, texts and emails. In a way, I feel very blessed to have the technology nowadays to support this network of communications (since I dread to think how a lockdown would have been like decades ago.) I frequently have texted my mum back home, kept up to date to how my friends are doing, and stayed in touch with work. These are definitely small things that keep me going and drive me to carry on with my daily life right now. It’s important to remember that there are people that rely on me as much as I rely on them.❤️
Whenever I feel down, dessert is a place I can turn to (and I believe this will also be the case for many!😁) As a famous quote once said, ‘Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first,’ let’s all make sure pudding is on the menu every day! While someone might call me out now for ‘encouraging’ unhealthy eating, the most essential thing is that you keep on doing things you enjoy (though just not outdoor. 😛)
Anyway, the dessert on my menu today is Japanese milk pudding – which the idea sprung to my mind when I discovered my unused carton of milk in the fridge. 😂 Traditionally, it’s made with the renowned Hokkaido milk from Japan. But obviously I have no access to that at home, so I just made do with ordinary milk.😛 It’s very simple to make. (See the YouTube video I used here👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzp21yBLcmQ.

To make it a bit more elaborated, I chose to top mine with some strawberry jam, crushed digestive biscuits and tempered dark chocolate, but it’s just as delicious on its own! (And I am loving the wobble haha! ❤️)
