How do you like wooing your lady? Chocolates, flowers, diamonds?? Forget it!! these are things of the past, now men are wooing their beloved with license number plates. You must be feeling what the hell, how would a lady get impressed if I gift her number plate then you must read this example of a Lebanese property developer who bid for 1D license plate number.

Nightingale of Kuala Lumpur: The diamond studded evening gown



If you believe that recession is still going strong then this dress would certainly shatter this myth, at least in Malaysia for sure. A designer out there has created an evening gown adorned with 751 diamonds worth $30 million. This price is nearly five times what executives of American International Group would receive in form of highest bonus.

This silk and taffeta evening gown comes with a seventy carat pear shaped diamond at the center of the bodice apart from topping of sparkling diamonds.

The designer behind this diamond studded evening dress is Faisol Abdullah which is being labeled as the Nightingale of Kuala Lumpur and will be showcased at the STYLO Fashion Festival. It is expected that this lovely diamond studded evening dress will find a lot of takers when it’s unveiled.

The person who says the world is going through tough times certainly must be brought to task!!!

Payard's Flourless Chocolate Walnut Cookies: KOSHER FOR PASSOVER!

Last year I got to work to find heaven on top of the beverage cooler where all the treats were always stored! My friend, Mara Sherman, brought in the most amazing cookies that she made for Passover. Passover, with little exception, means cardboard tasting, flavorless starchy gunk. I need to point out that these cookies are not good by Passover standards, they are sold at Payard, a famous patisserie on the Upper East Side, all year long. I wanted to make them this week, but work is too crazy and I wanted to get them to you before Passover. I promise if you make these this year, you will have happy campers at your seder table. Chewy, gooey and perfect.

Flourless Chocolate-Walnut Cookies
By Robin Raisfeld & Rob Patronite
Published Apr 13, 2008 in New York Magazine

François Payard’s Flourless Chocolate-Walnut Cookies

2 3/4 cups walnut halves
3 cups confectioners’ sugar
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350. Spread the walnut halves on a large-rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 9 minutes, until they are golden and fragrant. (1) Let cool slightly, then transfer the walnut halves to a work surface and coarsely chop them. Position two racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and lower temperature to 320. Line two large-rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. (2) In a large bowl, whisk (or combine in an electric mixer on low speed) the confectioners’ sugar with the cocoa powder and salt followed by the chopped walnuts. While whisking (or once you change the speed to medium), add the egg whites and vanilla extract and beat just until the batter is moistened (do not overbeat or it will stiffen). (3) Spoon the batter onto the baking sheets in 12 evenly spaced mounds, and bake for 14 to 16 minutes, until the tops are glossy and lightly cracked; shift the pans from front to back and top to bottom halfway through to ensure even baking. Slide the parchment paper (with the cookies) onto 2 wire racks. Let cookies cool completely, and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

I hear it's hard to get cookies off parchment- someone recommended dampening the back side of the parchment to get the cookies to slide off!
