Behind The Scene

My name is Peggy and I am an independent blogger from Singapore. I also run two cosy little cafes called The Tiramisu Hero and Butter My Buns. My biggest dream is to travel the limitless world and be a little more courageous. I love cats, a good cup of caffe latte, hats, photography and a good balance between everything.

I’ve often wondered…what fitness routines or diets work best for me, what health risks am I more susceptible to, or am I even 100% Chinese? And I’m super stoked because I’m gonna be getting answers to these gene-based questions soon, thanks to @circleDNA. It’s simple – you do a cheek swab test to unlock over 500 reports on Nutrition, Diet & Fitness, Ancestry, Disease and Cancer risk, etc. If you’re as curious as I am about the stories behind your DNA, grab a 20% discount on me: <PEGGY20> #CircleDNAYourLife #CircleDNAStory #CircleDNAChangeMaker

Day 10 of my veggie life & it really isn't as bad as I thought it might be. Personally, I think the biggest obstacle is the inconvenience when I eat out with friends, and having to relearn how to choose my ingredients and cook (which I'm already quite hopeless at haha). So much to learn. 🥑🥥🍅🥬🥦🥕🥔🌶️🍠 - I've forgotten how cathartic it can be to cook in the kitchen alone and sing along to my favourite tunes while I'm at it. Oh. And eating out of wares that I made myself sure is the cherry on top. I should try to do this more often. :) That chickpea noods is da bomb. *smacks lips* If you've got any tips or recommendations on vegan food options (esp in Singapore), throw them my way!

I think I might call us 'unlikely friends', mainly because I've never had another friend who's quite like Emma and never imagined that our friendship would blossom. But this person is certainly something - apart from being my English, literature and music teacher (lol), she has also singlehandedly made me rethink how I should be a gutsier and more confident person. "You need to live a little more recklessly," she once said to me. She never fails to remind me that I am worthy of bigger and better things, never hesitates to give me a (very controlled) thrashing whenever she thinks I deserve one, and shoots down the baddies around me even before they reach me. Haha! 🧟‍♂‍ The big problem here is, I think she doesn't realise how much good and happiness she brings into people’s lives; how privileged WE are to have her around. So @emma.loh, you are a *great* person and a wonderful friend and I would love to have the privilege to continue to teach you Chinese, maintain your mohawk, nag you to spend less money, cook for you, kill your angst with my patience and slowness, read you bedtime stories (once in a blue moon) and massage your head (once in a blue blue moon). My family is also yours. And you might just be the first person I call if I were to accidentally kill someone and need help with getting rid of the body. #kidding - My point is, I'm very grateful for your friendship. :) Thank you for all the good things you've brought into my life and taught me. I love all the changes you've brought out in me. I haven't always been the good friend I know I can be but I promise to always try to be a better one. You make do okay? (I know how you hate me using the word 'try') <3, Sloth - P.S. We were going at 20km/h in the first photo and I was complaining that it's too fast. And we pretty much went at that speed the whole time until I was ready to go faster. Lol. P. P. S. She's probably gonna proofread this and tell me all my grammatical mistakes. P. P. P. S. Caption has been updated with corrections. LOL.

"Lucky John!" they said. - But really I'm wondering who's the real lucky one. I'm one big lucky bunny to be part of the squad and it's been such a ride training with @cheahjohn and these strong beautiful ladies at @levelsingapore. 7 people, 10 weeks. Let's see where this brings us! #builtbylevel

Over lunch today, I was asked what I think my strengths are. I had a bit of trouble making a list in my head.. "Well I'm kind. And I am empathetic. What else? I guess I'm nice too, but nice is overrated." . Then she asked what my fears are. The list was inexhaustible. @anggeckgeck: "Hey. It's not that bad to be afraid sometimes, it simply means you'll be kept busy trying to overcome them in time. Wouldn't life be kinda boring and plain if we are totally fearless?" :) That made me smile.

My brother this morning: "Je, why are you dressed like you work in some holiday resort? Why are you wearing a name tag?! Hahaha!" 👀 Because your sister is un poco loco and we need to have fun!
