Hyperlinks, Indentation and Font Size!

I just came out of a meeting in which we went through the latest version of our checklist and my God, there are now more rules and guidelines when it comes to hyperlinks, indentation, font size, font type, acronyms, images, arrow boxes, tables and an endless list of other formatting features.

If you don't know it already, I work as (would you believe?) a technical writer. So following a predefined format while writing is not unusal but it can get a lil bit tedious, especially when you have to double-check everything to the tiniest detail. And that's probably the time you've got to upload the article into multiple systems and transfer the images into a server while encountering a million problems along the way.

Sigh. One fine day, I must do the whole quit-my-job-and-travel thing. Maybe do a whole European tour - assuming I'm rolling in money by then :P

Wondermilk @ Damansara Uptown

If you're a cupcake-loving person, you should check out Wondermilk cafe, located in Damansara Uptown. I've heard about this place from a number of people and being a die-hard fan of Cupcake Chic @ Curve, I just had to check out Wondermilk.

In addition to cupcakes, they also serve sandwiches and hot dogs but I have to admit, they've got a very different take on cupcake flavours. I noticed they had a lot of flavours that involved cheese - sadly, I'm not a fan of cheese. So I opted for the Chocolate Orange cupcake (think that's what it was called) and a cup of Hot Vanilla (RM6).

The cupcake tasted good (Note: Not great but just good) - it had a thin layer of marmalade at the botton so that added to the flavour. And it went well with my Hot Vanilla. But let me just say that I was disappointed with the size. For the price of RM4.50, the cupcakes are really small. Cupcakes at Cupcake Chic are the same price but twice as big with a generous amount of icing.

But Wondermilk is known for its custom-made, novelty cupcakes (from what I hear) and as you enter the cafe, there are shelves displaying cookies and boxes of tiny custom-made cupcakes.

Probably the best part of Wondermilk is the cafe itself. It's like something out of Alice in Wonderland. No, you don't see the Cheshire Cat or Mad Hatter lurking about or even the White Rabbit for that matter, but from the quirky decor you get the feeling that you just might eat or drink something that can alter your size. LOL.

Actually the place has a very whimsical feel to it. The one song that came to mind when I first sat down, was Owl City's Fireflies. If you've seen the music video for the song, then you would get what I'm talking about. Also, there are stuff on sale, such as T-shirts, bags, pouches, mugs and other odd knick knacks.

On the whole, I would say that Wondermilk cafe is a nice place to hang out. They've got an indoor and outdoor area but I suppose judging from the heat these days, you would probably want to sit in :)
