I am a cupcake lover. 

These  blossom cupcakes are really good and different from Magnolia's cupcakes.

The taste is not so sweet but simply little creamy....

I can have more than 10 of them easily at once...

The decoration is very sweet lovely floral....

Any green Veggie in my Fridge

For this one I added avocado in it. Aha...yummy!

Iwaso Ryokan, Miyajima, Japan

The Magic of Miyajima

It was like love at first sight for me...

This island is truly serene, magical and...simply beautiful...

I felt like I was in Japan 100 years ago..

I took the ferry from Hiroshima to Miyajima(only 20minutes boat ride).

Miyajima is well-known as a sacred island wherein people and gods dwell together harmoniously...

I stayed at Iwaso Ryokan, where I experienced Japanese lifestyle and culture...

The food was great...

The service was amazing...I felt like a princess!

It is close to everywhere...

In front of Iwaso Ryokan...very nice view of maple trees in red, orange and yellow...
