A relaxing day off

A lovely, spring day is about to begin.....

....of course, with a hearty breakfast! :)
This recipe of corn bread is from "joy of cooking", and i really like the result. It has a really rich corn flavor and just the right nutty texture. I add some grated cheddar cheese on top, and it taste even better now.

After breadfast, kev, joyce and me have a nice walk to coney island. It takes about 10-15 mins, so it's not bad at all.


The weather is starting to get warming, and i cant wait to come more often later.

And for dinner, we are having BBQ in front of our apartment! My parent actually enjoy it alot, and my father even said we should get a better grill, so that we can BBQ more often in the coming summer :)
