Chocolate Konyaku Jelly & Teh Botol - Stupid Stuff Makes Me Happy

Stupid stuff makes me happy.
What sorta stupid stuff?
Chocolate Konyaku Jelly in Rose Mold
Chocolate konyaku jelly in the shape of a rose...
I used Nutrijell Chocolate Konyaku Jelly Powder (available in most Indonesian stores in Hong Kong), and a silicon rose cake/jelly mold I bought in Jusco $10 plaza :D
Very chewy, not too sweet, easy to make (just follow directions on the packet)...plus, it's very pretty!

...and...
Teh Botol
This classic Indonesian Teh Botol Sosro bottle, which my sister brought all the way from Indo. It was pretty challenging for her to even get a bottle, since most eateries do not allow her to buy the bottle as they have to return the bottles to the manufacturer. Luckily she could buy it from an eatery...we don't wanna steal the bottle, despite being desperate ;)

Stupid, right?
Any stupid stuff makes you happy?

    I like drinking from a cute cup. I have a cup that is in the shape of a bunny, and it makes me ridiculously happy to sip coffee from it! :-)

    Hmm. I definitely have favorite plates and dishes that make me very happy. And also very irritable when I realize someone else has used them. It's totally irrational.

    Would finding good deals on used books count? hahaha. I was so freaking happy yesterday when that happened. And spicy food. Ah now I want some teh botol (but over here they only have the boxed ones).
