Cinnabon!

For some months now I've been getting good deals from Dailydeal.at. It's a website that offers consumers discounted prices for certain products. They are also perfect as gift coupons. I have bought mostly deals for restaurants, skin treatments, hair salon and photo printing. I have yet to buy a fitness deal. :D I hope they offer that soon...

The very first one I used was for Cinnabon's opening at the 22nd district of Vienna. The mall where their new branch opened is just some minutes away from us. I took a special trip there today with the little boy, it's opening day after all. The deal was: I paid 5€ for a 10€ worth of products.

(my actual coupon, gotta love how those rolls look!)

What's left of the strawberry Chillata, a caramel pecanbon and a classic cinnamon roll.

As for the quote, it was so true for me especially today. :D I just can't resist what my tummy is saying even if my mind says no. lol.

Scam?

That there's no path to afast weight loss has been established long ago...or has it been?

Remember Holly Rigby's fit and yummy mummy 28-day trial pack which the hubby didn't approve of since there are videos available on youtube too? :D They've stopped sending me emails so I was thinking maybe all that I paid for was really just that. I really hoped I had looked for torrents while trying to know if the program is a scam...That cost me around 30$ too... :( Anyway click here to learn more about effective weight loss.

Truffles cake

"There are two types of people who eat truffles: those who think truffles are good because they are dear and those who know they are dear because they are good." - J.L. Vaudoyer

I've always complained how bland the cakes here in Vienna are. Well those that I bought from the nearby store anyway. I haven't tried the ones from the Konditorei (pastry shop) because they don't look that attractive to me. lol. I guess I haven't had the chance to meet the best pastry chef in town yet. So whenever we wanted cakes we order from a Filipina baker who mostly do ube cakes. Her brazo de mercedes filled with either ube or langka is a family favorite but you know each roll costs 15 euros (20$)! So I can't really have them anyday...especially the ube chiffon cake, a 30 x 30cm costs 60euros (83$)!

Yesterday, the kids and I saw this dome cake from another store, I really miss that Selecta chocolate truffles ice cream from Pinas so I bought this one to somehow ease my craving. Turns out this is one of the better store-cakes in this bit-of-a-boring city! The kids (all 3) and I ate this in one sitting lol....oh it was about 12 inches in size! :D

The car cake (again)

Hubby was nagging my older brother to get even a cheap auto insurance for his car last time we were home. I bet it's because he knows how much repair the car needs. He's been telling me that it really needs tuning up. If only cars are baked like how they did in this video then it would be much easier. lol. I've posted this video 2 years ago but still find it amazing until now. I bet this tasted good too (they were kind enough to include a list of ingredients). Yes, 5 kilos of cocoa powder! :D
