» The mention of Ladurée conjures up pastel-tinted dreams of magnificent macarons and dainty desserts all in a Rococo fairy tale ambience. Men who need a real meal may dismiss it as a French bonbon, but be reluctant no more -- the tearoom has just recently celebrated its launch of a dining menu, with savoury delicacies that will fill you up the way a proper meal should. For an establishment better known for their sweets, Ladurée Salon De Thé offers quite a few surprises up its lacy sleeves: this being an immensely fresh produce and influences beyond French fare touching on some dishes.

» On Monday, Joanne Froggatt of Downton Abbey fame won her first Golden Globe for best supporting actress in a series. I started to squeal, scream, cry and do a victory dance in my head as if I had just won the award myself. But because I was at work, I dutifully simmered down and continued with my enchanting office life.

» Not everyone is cut out to become a fascinating, world-changing leader who gets interviewed by The New York Times, but that doesn't mean they don't bring anything to the table. I know I am just another person, but I try to be more than a lump who changes oxygen into carbon dioxide. With that said, I want to offer the reader something of value, rather than taking the easy way out and ranting about getting bitten by a dog the other day.

» It's a toy, but at least it's one that you can actually use to make a living. The Viewmaster has been around in the US since 1938 and has remained popular throughout the decades. Whilst it is no longer a ravishing hit today, its timelessness transcends borders and has been recently sending waves of nostalgia to Thailand. Of course we don't expect you to find pleasure in looking at reels of SpongeBob or Finding Nemo, so there is a catch to what's so special about Viewmaster Thailand.
