Love is in the Air
February’s here and although the weather’s hot and unrelenting, one thing’s for sure, love is all around us. Couples everywhere are busy making plans, planning surprises and getting gifts, excitement building as the 14th is nearing.
As exciting and wonderful celebrating love is, we can’t deny the fact that love does come at a price. As we ushered in the year of the Rat and the beginning of February, businesses everywhere competing with one another through lucrative offers of bouquets, candy boxes and cute novelty gifts to attract desperate and forgetful partners who are seeking last minute options.
Sadly, these offers aren’t lucrative as it seems. The minimum you can pay for a small bouquet and tiny box of chocolates is at least RM 100. For some people, that’s quite a fair sum of money, really. But then, the heart wants what it wants or does it?

Who doesn’t love gifts? Gifts bring joy to everyone who receives it and when a perfect gift is given, nothing touches the soul more. This Valentine’s Day, let’s make a change together.

As a gift to you on this day of love, this strawberry marble pound cake recipe will make even the coldest of hearts melt in a swirl of delicious strawberry swirled in a sweet, buttery dream.
