The Cocoa Brown Box

3rd April 2015

While browsing through Instagram, I saw @krispy_puff posted up a photo telling their followers that they will be at UBD on the next day, selling their yummy cream puffs.

I decided to flood my friend’s – WW – whatsapp, asking her if she could help me get them. I need her help because she is one of my few friends that is still studying in UBD. Aaaannddd I was already injured.

4th April 2015

Still flooding her whatsapp, reminding her to get those cream puffs.

The puffs were sold out in the next half-an-hour after they opened, she failed. MY FRIEND FAILED. She was just a step late to get them for me! *CRYYYYYY*

Not literally but I was dying (kidding!) to taste the crispiness of those cream puffs. I was super-determined guys, if not I would not be flooding WW with texts. Sorry to trouble you girl!

5th April 2015

Decided to text @krispy_puff. No reply.

15th April 2015

I texted them again, by any chance they forgot to get back to me. Still, I got no reply. I gave up.

18th April 2015

They texted me! But time was not on my side. I went to Miri that day and there was no way I could get them. I told them if they could text me their next open order in the near future… but again, they never texted back.

_______________________________________

Long story short, I give up and never got the chance to taste those krispy puffs.

HOWEVER –

Miracle did happen! On 7th of May 2015, a beautiful soul came to my house and left this @kripsy_puff box on the table in my kitchen! I am so touched that I almost cry! She also left me a note,


No name but I still recognize your handwriting, A!


Krispy_Puff Box right there, in Cocoa Brown.

To my dear friend, AA, you made my day. You may not know the story about my krispy puff cravings but Allah knows and HE inspired you to get me those puffs. May Allah bless you love!

To think of it now… I feel bad. Because when she came, I was in my room, resting… or sleeping actually. She didn’t text me beforehand that she’s coming and now I feel bad L but isn’t she sweet?

Isn’t Allah sweet?

If anyone is interested to try the cream puffs, just head on to their instagram @krispy_puff. But let me just say…
LOOK AT THAT!


AND THAT!

The puffs are long gone now and to be honest, I’m not a big fan of sweet refreshments but these little ones are worth the try. They come in 6 flavors,


The Milk Custard is the winner! The rest are not bad too but I have not tried the White Chocolate. Probably another reason to get another box?

If only they would reply to my texts.

  1. Good morning, how are you?

    My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

    I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because through them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are very small countries with very few population, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.

    For all this, I would ask you one small favor:
    Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Brunei? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Brunei in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:

    Emilio Fernandez Esteban
    Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
    28902 Getafe (Madrid)
    Spain

    If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.

    Finally, I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

    Yours Sincerely

    Emilio Fernandez

    1. Hi Emilio, I'm good I suppose, other than having an injured leg haha. I would love to send you a letter but if time permits. But hey, I love your work! I mean, I wouldn't have thought to "travel" through letters! Keep up the good idea!
